Pride & Prejudice filming locations tour from Manchester
"What are men to rocks and mountains?" Elizabeth Bennet famously asked, and on this full-day small group tour to the Peak District, you’ll discover the answer for yourself. We’ve designed a tour that captures both sides of the Jane Austen spirit: the rugged, independent adventurer and the lover of beauty and culture. Spend your morning breathing in the crisp air atop the Ramshaw Rocks and your afternoon wandering the halls of Chatsworth House, the 'Jewel of the Peaks.' Finish with your very own "Keira Knightley moment" standing on top of Stanage Edge looking out to the beauty of the countryside. It’s a day of literary discovery, breathtaking scenery, and the best of the English countryside. No carriage required, just a good pair of walking boots. Meet us in central Manchester and travel sustainably in our 100% electric vehicle to the heart of Austen country. Includes entry to Lyme Park gardens.
