Tissington is a perfect little village on the southern edge of the Peak District National Park, with pretty stone cottages clustered around a gracious stately home, complete with a duck pond, six ancient wells, a church, a fabulous tea room and wonderful independent shops.

The return leg heads back over field paths and along the peaceful Tissington Trail to Tissington. This is a delightful walk showcasing the very best of the southern Peak District countryside.
