Ladybower Reservoir is near the Upper Derwent Reservoir, at the heart of the Peak National Park, in an area often referred to as the ‘Lake District of the Peak’. It has beautiful views, a visitors centre and even a pub situated close by, making it the perfect place to spend a day. Due to its proximity to the Derwent Reservoir, you can see the two breaktaking sites in one day.
