Fantastic place to walk with a great cafe nearby, serving a extensive menu suitable for all needs. Highly recommend this place, not too far from Sheffield!

This is a beautiful flat walk. We choose to walk here as it was a bit wet and didn't fancy a hilly walk. Lovely paths and scenery. We did 11 miles in 3.5 hours and was quite easy. Lovely help centre, toilets and food outlet

Beautiful place with amazing view. Great for long walk and best for a day trip. You will love the weather even it's raining. Suggestion: Don't forget to carry gloves and beanie. 😃😃
