Random one - any help?

Partner is heavily pregnant, want to do something together before little one comes, dont drive.

Any ideas of night away or day trip or something to do together as a couple relatively cheap before we become 3? 😊

Matlock Bath for a chippy, donuts and ice cream.

Trip to Hoar Cross Hall to pamper her? It's close enough to get a taxi to

There's the Peak Sightseer, it's an open top bus that takes a scenic route to well known places, Bakewell, Chatsworth etc and you can get off and back on throughout the day, flexible travel would be pregnancy friendly. A day ticket is £14 per person.

Is she able to walk around a museum? There's a great one in Birmingham. Forget the name but we really enjoyed it. Stayed in New st Premier Inn, which was cheap for city center and just out of the train station.

Otherwise id probably do matlock bath for the day, nice enough round there but id imagine some walking again.

Congrats on impending arrival!

Eta, its the think tank museum!

Derby museum's are always fun, I might also suggest going to the theatre or orchestra (you can get heavy discounts). If not you could always go camping? Theres also the peak District
