At last...This is Haddon Hall where Princess Bride was filmed. It is a National Trust property in Derbyshire, England. Derbyshire is in the Peak District here which is a beautiful, hilly region a couple hours north of where we live. I had never visited this part of the country until this past weekend, and it was spectacularly beautiful. My friend Mattie is moving back to the US in 2 weeks, and we decided to take a little trip before she left. She is a huge Princess Bride fan, and so we made this spot one of our stops. Parts of it date from 1066! Here are some pics...Stay tuned for more pics of more scenic spots from our trip....
