Took my 13 year old Nephew quad biking for a birthday treat! He had a fantastic time. The staff were all very helpful and friendly from Davina who booked us in and Jen on the desk to the instructors, Jamie who gave excellent safety briefing. Jody and his Son were very patient and gave my nephew who’s first time on a quad a brilliant experience in a beautiful place, he wants to know when he can go again. Thanks to everyone at Wildpark and those behind the scenes. Sarah and Jake x

Equatorial is THE go-to place for fabulously funky, fair trade clothing, bags, trinkets, accessories, embroideries and loads more! We travel the world to bring you the best in ethnic chic. With our friendly staff, chilled atmosphere and great music, this is a fun shopping trip for all; the toddlers, tiddlers, grannies and grandpas, wide awake students, weary mums and dads, glammed up shoppers, muddy walkers, the dog, the cat and the kitchen sink! First time venturers of the shop will often describe us as a 'tardis' or 'alladdins cave'... Why not come and see for yourself!

Absolutely amazing little place (both Ashbourne and Matlock Bath! Full of beautiful treasures, ethically sourced, fairly priced and awesome quality. The staff always go above and beyond to brighten your day, from the signs on the door when you enter to the warm welcome from happy, quirky people (and even sometimes a four-legged friend!). I truly can not recommend this place enough if you’re into unique decor, materials and jewellery. Definitely a winner ????????

The National Trust is a registered charity. With your help, we protect some of the most important spaces and places in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. We take care of historic houses, gardens, mills, coastline, forests, woods, fens, beaches, farmland, moorland, islands, archaeological remains, nature reserves, villages and pubs - and then we open them up for ever, for everyone. Dovedale valley is owned and cared for by the National Trust, with important woodlands, wildflower meadows and impressive limestone rock features throughout the valley. Please note; there is a privately owned car park a short and easy walk from the famous Stepping Stones. This is not a National Trust car park. The nearest National Trust car park is a mile away at Ilam Park, where National Trust member can park for free. There are toilets beside the Dovedale car park and these are owned and maintained by the Peak District National Park Authority. There is a charge of 20p to use these toilets.

we had a gorgeous days walking here in June, starting from Ilam and heading along the beautiful valley to Millers dale. the perfect clean waters of the river dove sparkled in the sunshine, the lovely rock formations and caves, flowers and wildlife are ever so enthralling. we paused for a coffee and a delicious Cornish pasty at the little shop before heading back to complete a wonderful seven mile walk.

Called into ashbourne and parked up on the main town car park by the co op. Noticed the direction arrow to the park. When we decided to hav our lunch we walked over to the park which is opposite the entrance to the car park. Lovely stream and ducks. There is a good field for playing ball games. There is a band stand and saw children playing in the paddling pool. There looked a good play area too it looked quite busy. There are seats in various spots and litter bins too. We sat down and enjoyed our picnic. Very pleasont.

This pub was only about two and a half mls from where we were staying at the Carsington Wood caravan park and was reccomended to us and we therfore would do the same. We had a great meal there, so much so we went again the second night. The food was great quality and value, the staff were all friendly and welcoming, we even got introduced to Margaret the chef, she was lovely. We had been away from home aprox 3 weeks when we arrived near Ashbourne and these were the best meals we had in that time. Give it a try if you are in the area. We did pre book as during Covid think you should.
