Time travel... Sheffield DA style!

Some of our campers swapped modern caravans for the 1940s on the first weekend of our early summer holiday site at Daarley Dale.

Paul & Nina, together with their four-legged companion Summer, were staying with Sheffield DA and headed next door to Peak Rail's spectacular "Codename Espionage"1940s Weekend at Rowsley.

And what a weekend it was! Steam trains, military vehicles, wartime camps, live battle re-enactments, a thunderous Howitzer firing... and, if the rumours are true, they even managed to blow up a train! The event recreates the sights, sounds and spirit of wartime Britain with authentic re-enactors, entertainment and heritage trains.

Paul and Nina certainly looked the part too, stepping out in beautifully elegant 1940s attire and fully embracing the occasion. We think you'll agree they scrub up rather well!
