Visited here with my daughter and granddaughter and was really impressed. A great place for little ones to play and as there is a limited number of spaces for children per each session it doesn't feel too boisterous or overcrowded. Saying that it is quite a roomy place anyway. Had tea and cake which was really nice and very reasonably priced. Will be visiting again soon as my granddaughter had a great time

My family and I just had another fantastic night at the empire theatre. We went to see the show Guitar Heroes, it was absolutely brilliant and worth every penny. It's hard to believe that a small theatre like the empire could hold such an excellent night out but we certainly were not disappointed. Can't wait for the next show Illegal Eagles. See you soon.

Derwent Reservoir is an oasis of peace and quiet. We parked at Pow Hill Country Park and then walked along to the head of the reservoir on the user friendly, all user path, good for pushchairs and wheelchairs. If you walk across to the other side of reservoir there are picnic areas with lovely views. It is gloriously quiet and is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life for a while. You could spend a couple of hours here or all day, walking the trails and having a picnic. Highly recommend.
