We said we'd be back!!
We have not long been back from a great holiday at The Firs - to have the holiday we should have had last September when we spent 12 days going to and from Royal Derby Hospital for my husband to be treated for a nasty insect bite! It was lovely to meet up again with site managers Annemarie and her husband Perry who were so helpful and kind to us last year and catch up! They have got to be the nicest and friendliest managers ever!!
The site looked beautiful and immaculate, with flowers, well cut grass and a spotless shower block. A great deal of care is taken with touches around the site that make it well worth the stay. My personal favourite is the little bird table with the caravan! There are tables where you can sit and relax and look out over the Derwent Valley - just stunning.
The weather wasn't great in the first week but we got out and about visiting and revisiting some of our favourite places - Chatsworth, Buxton and Bakewell. The Heage windmill is a must and a fascinating tour. We also rode the cable car from Matlock Bath up to the Heights of Abraham - with stunning views.
It really is one of our favourite sites and hope to be back again one of these days.
