Ilam Village and Monument

Highlight • Bridge

Ilam is a beautiful little village. No shops to speak of except for an ice-cream van in the weekends when the sun is out. Most routes out involve a reasonable climb, but worth a visit. Over the bridge from the monument and a short steep climb gives some good photo ops over the valley.

Clifton Village, Peak District

Highlight • Historical Site

This charming little village is located nearby to Ashbourne in Derbyshire. It's nestled in the picturesque countryside of the Peak District and is characterised by historic stone cottages and a rural atmosphere. I'd recommend a stop at The Cock Inn, a beautiful traditional pub serving up food and real ales.
