Lesson #1 recommendation around Sheffield

Be nice, I'm new to this whirly lark... Christmas time and SWMBO has decided that she likes helicopters and my PPL(A) isn't enough, so I'm not objecting to her plan for me to learn with her paying for lesson #1.

I'm in Sheffield and obviously there are a few schools at EGSY but I don't mind looking further afield as it will give me an excuse to fly to another airfield.

I don't really want to spend an hour 'mastering the art of hovering' and a friendly instructor who doesn't mind flying somewhere interesting, and a quick cup of coffee in the middle would be nice.

So, I'm happy to go a reasonable distance of Sheffield in case the Wx goes crap? Sherburn? Nottingham? Barton? Derby? Humberside? Anywhere else worthy of a recommendation?

Cheers
