Ellen Outram – Blue Badge Tourist Guide

Let me introduce you to the Peak District – this fascinating area in the centre of the England, picked as the country’s first National Park way back in 1951. The Peak District is full of wonderful places to visit – with small picturesque villages and bustling market towns scattered across a scenic landscape well worthy of its National Park status. Whether it be joining me on a guided walk in one of those fascinating villages or towns or a coach tour throughout the area let me make it come alive with the wonderful background stories and anecdotes to match the stunning scenery. Or if you can’t visit the area this time allow me to bring it to you in the form of illustrated talks, with a lively commentary, giving you the chance to see why we have so much to shout about!

Bakewell is the only place in the world where you can buy a genuine Bakewell Pudding (not to be confused with the better known Tart!). The recipe is a closely guarded secret but from here you can post one to anywhere in the world.
