September Self-Catering Breaks
The summer crowds gone, the heated swimming pool still open and the Peak District turning autumnal. Great value in our Derbyshire holiday cottages and apartments.
The quiet month everyone forgets about
Once the schools go back, September is a different park. The pool is usually open until late in the month, the walking is superb and you will have Dovedale far more to yourself than you would in August.
It is a good month for couples and for anyone who can travel outside the school holidays, with both short breaks and full weeks available.
- Quieter once the schools go back
- Pools usually open until late September
- The countryside starts to turn through the month
- Good walking weather without the summer crowds
- Short breaks of three nights and full weeks both available
