The best places to live in Derbyshire have been revealed by lifestyle guide Muddy Stilettos.
Experts have curated their annual listing of Top 300 Places to Live which analyses counties and drills downs into regional towns and cities.
Factors considered include culture, shops and schools to compile the top 10 areas to live in each county.
People got the final say as the final vote was down to the public who determined which of the 300 villages and towns deserved to be crowned Best of the Best 2025.
Earlier this week Muddy Stilettos announced the market town of Dursley in Gloucestershire has been voted the best place to live in the UK by its readers.
Derbyshire may have narrowly missed on this top accolade, however the region is packed with beautiful places that we are big fans of.
