Peak District retreat vacation in the UK

Planet

Peak District. Looking at its rolling hills, working farms, stock grazing on the fields and small, picturesque villages, we think that preserving its beauty is almost our duty. Therefore, our Peak District retreat is designed in a way to really cut our carbon footprint to a minimum.

On this trip you will only unpack once. This is already a bonus (who likes packing?) but it means a lot in terms of carbon footprint. When staying in one, center-based location, we choose not to travel from one place to the other. We cut on transfers, meaning we cut the carbon emissions too.

Main inclusions are walking based. Yes, after one of the walks we need to jump in to shared taxis to come back to our base and we do need to use public transport to reach the start of the other walk, but otherwise walking (and cycling) is the most environmentally friendly activity one can choose to do.
While we stay in one, center-based location, we made sure that food we will consume is locally sourced. This means we not only eat from local producers, supporting their hard work. It also cuts down so called food miles. Think about all these imported food produce and how much emissions they generate.
