The Cow Shed Café

Highlight • Cafe

A lovely little cafe in a great location. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating but gets very busy and often is full. Bikes can be left in the outdoor seating area in view of the cafe. Indoors it is nice and cosy with a large fire in the centre. There is a great selection of drinks, cakes and other food, including plenty of gluten-free and vegan options. They also do loyalty cards for the drinks so you can claim a free drink after filling in 10 drinks.

Dale Abbey Arch

Highlight • Religious Site

The ruins of Dale Abbey are all that is left of a former Premonstratensian abbey that, after a few false starts, was founded in the early 13th century. The ruins stand in the pleasant village of the same name.

Today, the magnificent arch of the east window is a dramatic sight. It is a poignant reminder of the faded grandeur of the monasteries.

Stanley Brook Crossing

Highlight • River

This shallow brook crossing is certainly rideable with a run up (after good weather of course), but there's a bridge if you don't fancy it. The track however does get very muddy!

The Captain's Tea Rooms

Highlight • Cafe

Tea rooms with great scenic location. Inside and outside seating. Can watch bike from some inside seats. Menu fairly limited - breakfast items until 11:30 and lunch until 2:00. Mostly sandwiches, park pie, salads. Not cheap. Wide selection of cakes.
