Visited when staying at the Camping and Caravanning site at Blackshaw Moor near Leek. It was a superb 10 mile round trip hike from the campsite, across country via Lower Blackshaw Farm and Whitty Lane up to Hen Cloud. From there its an excellent north west trek following the Roaches ridge past Doxy Pool to the Trig point before turning back. Superb views of Tittesworth Reservoir. Plenty of places to stop for a picnic with a view. There is limited roadside parking that runs below the Roaches albeit it gets full very quickly. It is worth noting that it is not a bad walk from the reservoir Visitor Centre where there is ample parking, toilets etc.

UK's Premier Trials School - Fun, thrilling and challenging trial bike training in the beautiful Peak District. Experience Days, Corporate Days 1to1 Training with professional tuition. Bikes, kit and refreshments provided. No motorcycle licence required.
Stu and team run a fantastic setup. The bikes are in tip-top condition, more snacks than you ever need and a really great, tasty, hot lunch. We learned so much from the team’s excellent instruction. At the start of the day, Stu said we’d be doing stuff by the end of the day that, at the start, we wouldn’t have thought possible; he was right and it’s all down to the team’s excellent tuition. If you can cope with a bit of banter being thrown at you, you’ll have an amazing day where you (personally speaking!) come away knackered but with a massive grin.

Coombes Valley is a wonderful woodland nature reserve. There is something for everyone including a play trail, woodland walks and plenty of wildlife
One of my favourite places. We seek out reserves that have a no dog policy so that we can enjoy wildlife and nature without dog walkers dominating. It's beautiful one of the few places I can relax outside. Everybody is friendly and calm. We always see plenty of birds and like how each bit of the reserve has a different feel and there is some hilly sections up into the woods. The lady who is in the shop is really nice and enjoyed talking to her. It would be a nice place to take children too as there is a big flat accessible walk with a play trail.

Set in the heart of the Staffordshire Peak District; Peak Wildlife Park offers a truly unique and immersive animal experience. Our large walkthroughs allow you to come face to face with exotic and endangered animals from across three continents. Whether you love lemurs, have a passion for penguins or want to wander with the wallabies (and feed them with your hand!)our park has something for you. Our regular keeper talks and on site facilities provide everything you need for an entertaining, exciting and educational day out. The kids will have a wild time enjoying our play area with space hoppers, trikes and large bouncy castle, whilst you can enjoy a relaxing hot drink and delicious snack. Once you’ve done all that…Make sure you meet our Meerkats, look out for otters, see if you can hear the Rheas and DON’T miss our african village (or our Pygmy Goats won’t be happy!). You can do all of this whilst helping to contribute to the conservation of some of the word’s most amazing animals
Had a lovely visit to the peak wildlife park with my grandchildren, loved seeing al the animals and watched all the feeding times and talks which were very informative, it was great fun in the Lima’s enclosure and also the wallaby’s that run free around you ,,, we especially enjoyed the penguins and were lucky enough to see the babies being fed and weighed .. the food area was really nice and the food was very reasonably priced . The pizzas are huge and delicious. We also use the indoor jungle play area where the little ones had lots of fun playing. We visited the gift shop to buy a souvenir of our day out and the gifts were good prices and had a good choice . A lovely place to visit on a sunny day .

Visited on a very hog day, the short walk from the car park (train station) to the dam was nice and shaded path was easy to walk and cycle. Once at the dam we used the toilets which her clean and paid a visit to the ice cream shop the lake was beautiful the kids had fun paddling about unfortunately we didn't take our paddle board as we only visited on the way back from somewhere else but we would definitely go back and pay the £10 to launch our paddle board and spend the whole day.
