Highly recommend this walk in the Peak District - it's a firm favourite. I love the great outdoors and this really is an area of unspoilt natural beauty. Walks for all abilities - simply from the NT car park up to the top of Mam Tor peak to take in the views or to carry on and follow the ridge all along and descend into Castletown for a walk around. It's a stunning walk that I will happily do time and time again!

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

To see the best views (and escape from the maddening crowds) then you need to climb up through Cave Dale. At the bottom is an interesting information board, and then a steady climb up a small rock strewn path leads up to the top and level with the castle. When you reach the top and then head right, and not through the gate, and you will see Peveril Castle. As you walk towards the castle the area at the end facing the castle is the original entrance to it. Where you are standing is actually where a small market was held selling wares to the castle inhabitants. Lovely bit of history and the views down Cave Dale and over Castleton are amazing. Definitely worth the walk up.

Castleton is a beautiful village situated in the Hope Valley, in the heart of the Peak District National Park. Surrounded by hillsides and overlooked by Mam Tor (the shivering mountain) and the ancient Peveril Castle, the village is popular for it’s show caves, Blue John stone, history, shops, and walking. Fully refurbished in 2017, it's now the premier visitor centre in the Peak District National Park, with exciting information displays, a dedicated space for the Castleton Historical Society’s museum, expansive retail area, an area for activities, as well as a café serving a selection of local produce.
