Fun Things to do with the Kids in Derbyshire in the School Holidays

Are you stumped as to what to do with your family during the school holidays? Are you looking for fun activities, good hotels, special events, and renowned restaurants in your area? Or are you seeking nearby Derbyshire locations to explore the local culture? In the sightseeing area, we've selected the top three children's museums, amusement centres and historic sites.



Attraction Information for Chatsworth House & Farmyard:

You can pick up an exhibition trail and collect stamps as you travel through the years, from the sculptors of ancient Rome and Egypt to Rembrandt's paintings and right up to the present day. Step out to the garden and take a walk before climbing the big rockery for a spectacular view.  

Peak District Lead Mining Museum:

The Peak District Lead Mining Museum offers a unique opportunity to learn about the interesting history of the lead mining industry in Derbyshire, as well as the families who made a living doing this arduous labour.

Documents, maps and photographs, as well as pumping engines and devices that remove water from mines are amongst the collections waiting to be explored. In the Howie mineral collection, there are thousands of minerals and rocks to uncover. So many, in fact, that they can't all be displayed!

Gulliver's Kingdom:

Visit Gulliver's Kingdom in Derbyshire for non-stop adventure geared towards children aged 2 to 13. The Switchback roller coaster, Ladybird Ride, The Crazy Barrel Ride, and Gully's Pirate Adventure are just a few of the rides available. From select parts of the park, such as the 629-foot-high log flume, you can see fantastic views of the Derbyshire landscape.

Older children will like the Western World and Pirates Play area, while younger children will enjoy Toy Land, which offers a variety of interactive rides and attractions for under 5s. Keep an eye out for Gully and his pals, as well as several dinosaur attractions that are strewn across the park.

The George is one of the most renowned places where you can enjoy delicious meals, stay in cosy rooms and enjoy different events with kids. Connect with the experts at The George to find out more about fun activities, events and cosy stays with your kids in Derbyshire.
