Hen do and Stag Weekends in Derbyshire’s Peak District – The Cycle of Life

Article published: May 17th, 2013

The cycle of life; it’s a little calmer here in Derbyshire’s Peak District. Well that’s unless you decide to stage a Derbyshire hen do or Derbyshire stag weekend with a difference. Hard Days Knight is your one stop shop to plan a weekend to remember. We manage any combination of activities across multiple centres. Indeed, the bespoke combination of activities really is down to you!

We specialise in a vast array of group activities, from water sports to target sports, motorsports to caving, climbing and more. But the Peak District really lends itself well to cycling. In fact, a £2.5 million bike trail project linking the Potteries to the Peak District is set to get underway this November, adding to the already impressive number of famous cycle trails.

Take our 24 speed bikes around a picturesque Derbyshire reservoir, or perhaps for the more adventurous, how about an 8-mile reservoir circuit encompassing local villages and superb countryside? Combine your mountain biking with, quite literally, any combination of stimulating group activities. We even have a superb selection of Derbyshire accommodation close by to all activity centres.

All the fun with no drama

We had such a good stag do with Hard Days Knight in the Peak District, and I honestly can’t recommend them enough! From the start, they organised everything down to a tee, making it a weekend none of us will forget. The accommodation was good, comfortably fitting our group and perfectly located for everything on the itinerary. One of the absolute highlights was the Hunted activity - a mix of orienteering with a twist where you’re actually being chased! It was such a laugh and brought out everyone's competitive side, with a good bit of adrenaline thrown in. A massive thank you to Greg in particular, whose communication was faultless. He kept us updated every step of the way, answered all our questions, and went out of his way to make sure everything went smoothly. His local knowledge and enthusiasm really added to the experience and made us feel like we were in safe hands. If you're planning a stag do and want a unique, well-organised experience in the Peaks, Hard Days Knight is the way to go. Cheers to Greg and the team for a brilliant weekend - we’re still talking about it!

My brother's stag do was nothing short of amazing. We've had a myriad of activities to choose from in a wonderful location. Sadly, the Best Man, who paid the deposit for the country house we stayed in, had some disputes with the property owner, who withheld the deposit claiming damages (which were previously there). Once Hard Days Knight was informed, Greg immediately stepped in to refund our deposit out of pocket, so that he can help handle and mediate. This immediately shows us that Greg prioritises keeping our Stag Do a happy memory, and it's very much appreciated.

We had an excellent time on our brother’s stag that we organised with Greg. Cannot fault the experience, Greg was extremely helpful and efficient with putting together a great weekend in a fairly short period of time. The accommodation suggested worked out perfectly, especially with the attached pool, hot tub and games room which were an added bonus. The activities lived up to our expectations and again were well organised and timings made the whole weekend work without any issues. Everyone had a lot of fun and I would highly recommend going with HDK for any stag/ hen-do.
