Tideswell itself is a beautiful village to walk round and explore. The Cathedral of the Peak is a truly stunning church with a fascinating history. Peak Volumes, our second hand and antiquarian bookshop, is a calming place to get lost for hours. High Nelly’s Café does great ice cream. And there are a number of great littles walks to get out into nature.

It is breathtaking. Head up the huge stone steps to the highest peak in Derbyshire, then along the great ridge.

An incredible trail route to the highest peak in the Peaks. This is a challenging hike and we’d recommend researching the route before taking it on, but the rewards are huge.
