About Bakewell Showground

Bakewell Showground is by far the most popular choice of launch-site. With breathtaking scenery and places of interest in all directions such as Chatsworth; Haddon Hall; Lathkill Dale; the Wye valley; Monsal Dale and spectacular moorland to the North East.

For those who want to view the Peak District from a new perspective Bakewell is the obvious choice. If you live in Manchester or Cheshire then Bakewell is also the most convenient.

When flying from Bakewell we arrange to meet you in the Showground, easily found beside the River Wye on the opposite bank to Bakewell town centre.
