Love is in the air for Peak District
Visit Peak District and Derbyshire, the area's official tourist board, have come up with the Fall in Love with the Peak District drive in a bid to capitalise on St Valentine's Day.
Events planned include helicopter flights over the Derwent Valley on the famous 'Dambusters Run', guided walks amid famous landscapes featuring in the film Pride and Prejudice and walks through snowdrops at Hopton Hall, near Wirksworth.
