Does anyone know whether the road from Ashbourne to Parwich is clear? Marlous and Ferdi, our (Dutch) guests from Tom’s Barn, have had to camp at the Travel Lodge in Ashbourne overnight and need advice. They certainly won’t get up the hill to Orchard Farm but will they get to Parwich okay? I don’t think they or their car are used to icy roads…be very grateful if anyone has any up to date info. Thank you!

Is road to Ashbourne open?

We made it in about 9 last night ina 4×4 but it has frozen overnight – reckon it should be ok this afternoon after traffic has bashed it a bit
Marlous and Ferdi have made it back to Parwich! What a relief all round!
I’ve just returned from a Christmas break in Holland, flying back to Manchester over the pristine white northern moors of the Peak District, basking in sunshine. Thankful that the roads are fairly clear again!
Ik wens Marlous en Ferdi (and everyone else!) een’ Gelukkig Nieuwjaar’.
