Endmoor Farm is only 2 minutes away (by car) from the cycle hire centre at Parsley Hay. From here riders can go along the Tissington trail to Ashbourne – 14 miles, and enjoy the beautiful open vista along the way. You may like to stop off for refreshment at Hartington – at the kiosk in the old signal box, or the ‘picture postcard’ village of Tissington.
The Monsal Trail is 10 minutes drive away. The views are vast and quite stunning as you travel along the old raised railway line that used to link Bakewell with Buxton. Again, it is possible to hire bikes at Hassop station or Blackwell. Enjoy riding through the various tunnels and bridges that were key features along one of the UK’s most scenic railway routes!
Super cafe and book shop at Hassop, cafe and pub at Monsal Head.

Well, we survived the January snowfall. All though the snow in Monyash was pretty deep, we were able to get out and about and attend to the many jobs that need doing on the farm. Of course there are Sheep and Cattle that need tending to, not to mention keeping all the lanes clear of snow.
Once all the hard work was finished, we did manage to grab a few hours to relax and to get out walking and taking a few photos of Monyash in the snow.
We keep the Holiday Cottages in top top condition over the winter months, and are already beginning to take bookings for later in the year.
To avoid disappointment take a look at our four self catering Holiday Cottages Tagg Cottage, Rakes Cottage, Milkens Cottage and Derby Cottage and make your booking today.
