you can get a direct bus from Buxton Market Place to Derby, takes about 1 1/2hrs

I think you may have to endure a country bus journey from Buxton. If memory serves I think Matlock would be your best route as it's a mere 10 min train ride to Derby. The only alternative would be heading to somewhere like Uttoxeter then training it into Derby. Six of one half a dozen of the other.

DG, I am going up on the coach that was advertised on here. Meant to be stopping at a pub just outside Derby. Not sure what it is called. If I find out will let you know.
