Two EH sites in one day!
Sutton Scarsdale Hall which is just to the south of us seemed like a good plan.
Lovely setting, but not really much for the small people there. From my point of view too, it was just another pile of stately rubble, surrounded by grass.
One thing about Sutton Scarsdale though, it does have splendid views across the M1 to Bolsover Castle, and after about 45 minutes we decamped there for our second visit. The Smalls adore it, and we spent the rest of the afternoon there.

Need support for your home ed journey? Looking for tutoring for your young person? Have an idea for a collaboration? I’d love to hear from you!
After 20+ years of home educating my four children (two now adults), I’ve gathered a wealth of experience that I’m passionate about sharing. Beyond blogging and guest writing, I offer several services designed to support families on their home education journey.
I’ve put together a collection of resources that I’ve genuinely found useful over the years—things that have actually made a difference in our home education. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to freshen things up, there’s something here to help. These are the tools, guides, and materials I’d recommend to a friend, because they work.
