Longshaw Estate

Highlight • Natural

The stone carving below the cafe lawn is a map of the Peak District National Park. The millstone under the yew trees through the small gate recognises the huge contribution given to Longshaw by volunteers.

Pinnacle Stone and View, Longshaw Estate

Highlight • Natural

The pinnacle stone is almost part of the Tumbling Hill outcrop in the National Trust owned and managed Longshaw Estate. It's a great place to stop, take in the views and admire the leaning stone tower.

Tumbling Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

Tumbling Hill sits above the picturesque village of Grindleford and commands stunning views over the Hope Valley. It’s an absolute gem of a location.

Longshaw Pond

Highlight • Natural

Longshaw Pond was created around 1827 and once had a boathouse and pier. Wardens carefully remove the marsh plants each year to stop them from choking up the open water.

The lodge was built about the same time as the pond, as a shooting retreat for the Duke of Rutland and his guests, including George V and the Duke of Wellington. Later, the lodge became a military hospital and after the wars let to the Holiday Fellowship as a guest house. In 1969 it was converted into private flats. (The lodge is not open to the public.)

Longshaw Cafe

Highlight • Cafe

The excellent National Trust Cafe at Longshaw serves a reliably good coffee, brownie and scones. They also do light lunches, other cakes and snacks. Plus, there is a small shop on site where you can buy maps and other NT stuff.
