The cottage is lovely. 5 miles from Buxton and approx. 20mins to the Monsal trail. We headed for Thor's Cave on the Friday evening and the sun was just setting. Gorgeous views from the cave. Saturday we walked part of the monsal trail up to the viaduct and monsal head. Stopped for a few river stops along the way and had a jersey ice cream and monsal head itself. The tunnels were fun! Sunday we drove to Bakewell and enjoyed a river walk there too. Beautiful area and gorgeous views.
