Overview

Join Joanne for a walk from Rowsley, to arrive at the Chatsworth Christmas Market in time for lunch and a mooch around the stalls, before heading back along the river from around 2pm. It's a great way of avoiding the car parking charges and getting a leg stretch in. Plus a spot of Christmas shopping...remember to bring a big rucksack!
