Be sure to have plenty of gas in the tank, because Sheffield is well worth a detour. Situated 16 miles from Darley Dale, it boasts some terrific attractions, such as Ponds Forge International Sports Centre and Magna Science Adventure Centre. Nothing says living large like a road trip does, so keep on cruising to Nottingham. It’s 25 miles away and also has a few worthwhile sights, such as Nottingham Castle and Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem.
