1. Hartington Farm Shop & Cafe

The Hartington Farm Shop & Café is a family-run business located within the picturesque village of Hartington. They supply homemade food including breakfast, lunch, snacks & delicious homemade cakes, including all the finest locally-sourced ingredients wherever possible. They also have a little shop which is filled with locally made gifts and fresh local food, including but not limited to milk, eggs, bread, meat, and produce. We love this little spot and it's definitely one of our favorite breakfast spots. Hartington Farm Shop & Café, Hartington, SK17 0AN - 1.6 miles from Hartington Hills.

2. The Tea Junction

The Tea Junction was once home to the steam engine which ran through the Manifold Valley. The building has since been lovingly restored & turned into a tearoom with the visitor centre next door – the surrounding area is teaming with history and its industrial heritage. Situated at the start of the Manifold Way (a disused railway line, now a cycle trail), the Tea Junction is a fabulous spot for a coffee, cake or light lunch. The Manifold Way is a personal favourite of ours, so be sure to head down there. The Tea Junction, Hulme End, SK17 0EZ - 0.9 miles from Hartington Hills.

3. Beresford Tea Rooms

Situated in Hartington next to the Devonshire Arms pub, you will find a small tearoom which has been run by the same family since 1987. Open daily from 10am to 5.30pm, they cater for morning coffee, light lunches, ice cream and afternoon teas etc. Their cakes are some of the best and they're all homemade. If a traditional countryside tea room is what you're looking for, Beresford Tea rooms should be top of your list. Inside you will also find the village post office, as well as a little shop filled with local goodies, greetings cards and other gifty items. Beresford Tea Rooms, Hartington, SK17 0AL - 1.7 miles from Hartington Hills.

4. Wetton Mill

Wetton Mill is a beautiful cafe on the Manifold Way. SItuated a couple of miles further down the trail from the Tea Junction, this dreamy little spot is right next to the river. It serves ice creams, homemade cakes, homemade sandwiches, coffee and more. The location is truly unrivalled, it's the perfect place to kick off your shoes and go for a paddle after a long walk or bike ride. It's located a short distance from Thor's cave, making it a very popular spot in Summer. Definitely worth a quick stop if you're heading that way. Wetton Mill, Dale Farm, DE6 2AG - 3.6 miles from Hartington Hills.

5. Tagg Lane Dairy

Tagg Lane Dairy is situated across the road from the start of the Tissington Trail - a local cycle route. It is best known for its incredible artisan gelato (ice cream to you and me). As well as their fresh ice cream (made daily!), they sell an array of locally sourced, grass fed beef and venison, eggs, raw jersey milk and more. Their coffee is also to die for if you're a coffee snob like us. Our advice would be get there early to beat the queue. The queue will be out the door and along the driveway, people drive miles for a Tagg Lane ice cream. Tagg Lane Dairy, Monyash, DE45 1JP - 6 miles from Hartington Hills.
