Looks like we can no longer afford holidays abroad

Depends whereabouts you are going. It's a big place

Wildboarclough, on the western side, not far from Macclesfield.

If you're into Canals and the like Marple has a junction and a long and high flight of locks with views over Peak District. Walking along the tow path will get you New Mills where the Swizzles factory is and further onto Bugsworth Basin.

Get to know it better - soon this will be the only place (just about) you can go on holiday.
No more sunny Spain, Portugal, Bulgaria, Greece, France - you will need a visa and visa you will not get.
Just rot peacefully on this fine island.

Sounds like an euphemism

Buxton is good for a day out. A bit touristy but very pretty.

Go to the Wincle Beer Company at Wincle, it's about 3 miles away. Go to the Roaches and have a walk down Luds Church. Castleton is also worth a visit
