A thriving picturesque market town on the edge of The Peak District, rich in history, Ashbourne is the perfect destination for couples, families and groups. Combining a medieval street pattern and historic buildings with a wealth of high quality shops. The cobbled market place, hidden alleys and yards are a delight to explore, and the wide and elegant Church Street is considered to be the finest s

treet of Georgian buildings in Derbyshire. Our town hosts a wide range of restaurants, tearooms and family friendly pubs and there is something for every budget and taste. Ashbourne is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is an ideal base for a short break or longer holiday. If you enjoy stately homes, you are in for a treat with Chatsworth, Sudbury Hall, Hardwick Hall, Kedleston Hall, Tissington Hall just to name a few within easy drive from Ashbourne.

A toast to the 10th Ashbourne Beer Festival! 🍻

The 10th Ashbourne & District CAMRA Beer and Cider Festival took over the Town Hall from Thursday to Saturday, with 30 real ales from a wide variety of breweries, alongside 10 full-juice ciders. 🍺🍎

A huge well done to all the volunteers who gave their time to organise and run the three-day festival, and to everyone who came along to support it.

Here’s to number 11! 🍻

Some sunshine for your feed before the rain sets in… ☀️🍻

Nothing quite like a sunny evening in Ashbourne, especially with a drink outside The Queen’s Vaults and a spot for watching the world go by.

Here’s hoping the sunshine makes a return before summer is officially over! 🤞☀️
