Accommodation and activities in Derby and the peaks.HDK Pursuits

“We had an awesome day and I think the highlight was the shooting. Kelly (the instructor) was great. She pitched it just right and we all had a lot of fun. Surprisingly I won and Matt (the Stag) came 2nd taking the silver medal. Your advice was spot on as some of the group were better with the rifle and others better with the pistol. Thanks for booking us in for a great time.”

Dan Leathers, Cambridge

“We all had a fantastic time the accommodation was fantastic better than my home! The freedom you gave us let us relax and enjoy the day. The shooting was great with very good instruction. All in all a perfect stag night. I have passed on you details to my brothers friend who is looking at a GoCarting day as well”

Nick Reidy, Staffordshire

“We had a great time – the cottage was perfect. The instruction for the clay pigeon shooting was excellent, and given the army competition they had on the day it was great that we were not overlooked and felt like we had as much time as we wanted. The rage buggies proved to be the biggest hit though with everyone really getting into it and commenting on the quality of the cars and the track. I think that facility is already very good and clearly expanding and improving with new catering facilities going in and a clear decision to provide some off track entertainment too. Thanks a lot for you help in sorting things out – I know it was a bit of a rush job in the end, but it all went perfectly as planned and the use of the TV really made a difference for the quieter moments of the weekend”

Mike Probert, Durham

“Just a note to say we all had an awesome weekend and thank you for all your help organising it. I would definitely recommend you to others”

Tom Morgan, Bromsgrove

Helen Robinson, Etwall

“Just to let you know we had a great time a couple of weekends ago and everything went really smoothly (barring 2 guys not making the minibus back from Derby!). I managed to get Ed at the Goats Head to open the kitchen up a bit earlier for us to get some food so thanks for the tips on Abbots Bromley”

Rob Britton, Leicester

“Definitely recommend, my brother in law from my stag do organised something identical for a friend of his due to enjoying this so much”

“We were a group of 11 and each one of us had a fantastic time and will definitely visit again if we’re in Derbyshire. I spoke to Greg and he was very helpful from the 1st conversation. He gave me advice on the activity which would suit a group best and was very helpful even when we got lost on the way to the centre”

Gavin Hill Smith, Lincolnshire


“Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how much we enjoyed our Quad Biking session at the multi activity centre on Saturday morning. Myself and the other hens had a fantastic time and had even more fun than we expected. The staff were all very friendly and it really made our weekend. So thanks again!”

Gemma Davies, Cheshire


“Would you recommend us to your friends? Definitely! The whole weekend was absolutely fantastic, we all had a really great time. Thanks for a great time! “

Donna Forbes, Buxton


“Following the Event we have had nothing but positive feedback and the shooting, casino, venue and catering all commented on Although I am not sure what we would have done had the rain not stopped I know that the day went really well. I would be grateful if you would pass on my thanks to everyone involved for their excellent contributions, and finally thank you for all the help and assistance”

Neil Webb, Siemens plc


“Having had a couple of days to recover from our weekend away in the Peak District, I would just like to pass on how much fun we had on Saturday. There were a couple of minor hiccups, namely an unexpected dump of snow on Saturday and having to spend an hour pushing our car onto the main road meant we were a hour later than we should have been to the clay pigeon shooting ground. We had called ahead to explain but the people there were very accommodating and we were still able to shoot our full 25 shots each. When we arrived for our 3pm slot at the go-karting, I think they had expected us a little earlier but they again were very accommodating, let us do 25 laps in the standard karts and 25 in the faster ones as an apology. Please could you pass on my ‘thank you’s’ to both centres for their flexibility and all round good staff! All my family and friends really enjoyed the activities and I will recommend you to other friends if visiting the area! Thanks again!”

Katie Appleyard, Leeds


“Just wanted to drop you a quick note of thanks for your help arranging the stay at the log cabins last weekend and the activities. It was a hugely enjoyable weekend that went down very well. Thanks for all your help and I wish you all the best for the future”

Mark Edwards, Leicestershire


“We’ve just finished up and all really enjoyed ourselves! Thanks very much! John and Tony were great, good fun and kept us safe!! Thanks again”

Fay Gee, Cheshire


“Hope business is good, just wanted to thank you for sorting us out for the stag do we did on 11th/12th March staying at the log cabins. The landlord was great and staff were friendly, I hope we didn’t make too much noise in the pub! We all had a really good time, you were right about the hot tubs they are definitely worth it, although we might have stayed up a bit late one night. The shooting was excellent the trainers really encouraged us and were very friendly. The karting was good, but they were a bit black flag happy at times. Thanks again, cheers for all your help!”

Angus Willson, East Sussex


“Just wanted to say what a fab birthday party my twin boys had on Saturday. They all loved every minute! Will be back in touch next year for laser combat….”

Michelle Welsh, Derbyshire


” Thanks guys, I couldn’t have asked for a better hen weekend! The guys at the country estate were brilliant and the accommodation is fab and we are planning a trip back next year with all our other halves so I will definitely be in touch to arrange more cool stuff with you. Thanks for all your help, I’ve enjoyed our chats on the phone and look forward to speaking to you next year “

Kim Treanor, Wirral

Matt Gottwald, Oxfordshire


“Just thought I would pop you a little email on behalf of myself and the girls to say that we had a great time on Saturday, thoroughly enjoyed by all and I think by the time we finished the baked potatoes did not even touch the sides!!!. I think some of us were even a little more competitive than we had realised! So thanks to your staff for making the day a fab one”

Rachel Mines, Liverpool

definitely go again! The instructor was approachable, friendly and it was clear he knew a lot about the activities at hand. I would like to thank everyone involved in making it a memorable day, of which hopefully there will be many more” 🙂
