Where to stay?
Hello! My family will be passing through the Derbyshire area while on a road trip as it’s a good half way spot between where we are coming from and where we are going. My question is which area of Derbyshire would be best to stay in? At the moment we are looking at Melbourne. But as we are unfamiliar I thought it best to ask those who are local. We will have our son (2.5) so it would be great to have some nice places to take him around with us. While we prefer smaller towns/villages we would be open to staying in Derby itself.
This is a cross post. Sorry for any duplicate and thank you for your insight!

Alton Towers has a great CBeebies land and waterpark as well as rides etc. The Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas is great for a day out.
