Rural Britain Desk Calendar

Rural Britain Desk Calendar Overview

The Rural Britain promotional desk calendar unveils the natural beauty and amazing variety of the British landscape and the wildlife which we rarely catch sight of. This practical desk calendar for 2026 features two complementary photos each month, on one face, a picturesque location and on the opposite leaf, a wild creature which inhabits each place.

For instance, in September there is a photo of purple heather in bloom on windswept moorland near Bamford in the Peak District, Derbyshire. Bamford is a pretty village in the Hope Valley, a wide valley separating the deeply carved limestone dales of the ‘White Peak’ and the gritstone edges and moors of the ‘Dark Peak’. Bamford Edge, an overhang of gritstone rock is to the north, while the three Upper Derwent Valley reservoirs lie to the south. It is aptly paired with a photo of a nightingale, which is a summer visitor to the UK, a shy and secretive brown bird. Rarely seen, nesting in dense scrub, it is famous for its beautiful, melodious song, heard by day and at night, hence its name.
