I ordered a necklace online and am extremely happy with the product. Prior to buying I had a few questions about the different designs. My questions were answered promptly. The item arrived is a beautiful display box and bubble wrapped. There was even a branded bag to use if it was a gift. Also a little chocolate. Overall a great lockdown shopping experience. I will be ordering more items from here. #shoplocal

Located in Edale, this flagship centre of the Moors for the Future Partnership provides a national focus for moorland research and an inspirational experience for visitors to the Peak District National Park. The Moorland Centre's design reflect its upland setting. It has a living roof of sedum turf which acts as an eco-friendly insulator, and the building is fuelled by an energy saving ground-source heat pump. Edale is at the start of the Pennine Way and our experienced team are here to help you make the most of your visit to this spectacular area.

Following a long walk we called in the Edale Visitor Centre which is set back off the road which isnt that well situated.Close to Edale Railway Station. It is a good venue with plenty of items stocked together with ample information for the area. Lots of maps and books relating to the locality and surroundings. A bright and clean centre with staff very attentive

This unique stone is mined and transformed here.

Lovey visit. Staff very very friendly and the tour was highly informative. The cave is a sight to see and I would say the steps are very managable (unless you have mobility problems/knee issues etc.). They have hand sanitizer stops every so often so you feel safe, and everyone must wear a mask, which put me at ease. I really enjoyed my visit, a big thank you to all of the staff.
