Dimmingsdale
Last week a friend asked if I had been to Dimmingsdale & I had to say I’d never heard of it. It’s situated between Oakamoor and Alton Towers in a delightful valley along the River Churnet. So for the purposes of research three of us set out this afternoon to investigate. The area is lovely and I would like to return to do some walking & cycling around this area, if you are into bird watching it comes recommended – if you click here and here you can get more information on the area.
Do send in some comments if you have been here & can tell us about the walks & cycling.
This is a country restaurant & coffee house and when we arrived it was really busy with everyone tucking into a wide variety of Sunday lunches. They have a small lounge restaurant which was slightly faded, a large conservatory & garden, which was well occupied, in the warmer sun it must be lovely out there. We just indulged in some puddings, apple & blackberry crumble & a bread & butter pudding, both were home-made with lashings of custard. The portions were very generous & both were equally delicious. Open Wed – Sun.
So if you fancy exploring somewhere new, it’s within 25 minutes – a walk, a ride and some food go to Dimmingsdale.
