Things to do

Yeldersley Hall may nestle in rural countryside, but there are many nearby towns and villages, tourist attractions, and food & drink destinations with a great deal to offer.

The local area

Just 2.7 miles away is Ashbourne, one of Derbyshire’s finest old market towns, combining a medieval street pattern and historic buildings with a wealth of high quality shops. Here you will find a cobbled market square, hidden alleys and yards that are a delight to explore. In addition ‘Church Street’ in Ashbourne is considered to be the finest street of Georgian buildings in Derbyshire. Click here for more information on Ashbourne in Derbyshire.

As well as Ashbourne, Tissington, Osmaston, Hartington, Bakewell, Buxton are all within close proximity and are well worth a visit. Local events of interest include,
– Royal Shrovetide Football
– Mappleton Bridge Jump
– Dovedale Dash
– Ashbourne Show
– Yeldersley Hall Open Gardens – We normally run a charity open gardens day around the third Sunday in May with maypole dancing, a wind band and cream teas (very English!)
