Itinerary

1
Stop 1
Leaving Manchester, we journey to the grand Lyme Park estate. Your guide will lead you through the parkland to the very spot where Colin Firth’s Mr. Darcy took his famous dip in the lake. It is the perfect start to our exploration of the Regency era's enduring legacy
2
Stop 2
Next, we delve into the wilder "Austen" landscapes. We’ll visit the dramatic gritstone towers of Ramshaw Rocks, seen in the 1995 series.
3
Stop 3
Our third stop of the day takes us to the tiny but architecturally rich village of Longnor. This was used as Lambton in the 1995 adaptation.
4
Stop 4
We arrive in Bakewell, the market town Austen herself visited while writing. Use your free time to explore the medieval bridge or visit the local bakery to try a Bakewell Pudding, a recipe that dates back to the time of the Napoleonic Wars.
5
Stop 5
The afternoon is dedicated to Chatsworth House, the "Jewel of the Peaks." This stunning estate was used as the exterior and interior of Pemberley in the 2005 movie. Admire the sculpture gallery and the painted halls where Elizabeth Bennet’s heart began to soften toward Mr. Darcy.
6
Stop 6
Our final stop is a guided walk to the top of Stanage Edge. Standing on the towering gritstone cliff, you can recreate the iconic cinematic moment from the 2005 film, overlooking the vast and beautiful Peak District wilderness before our quiet, electric return to Manchester.
