DoveDale and Ilam

Beginning to get a bit of a feel for Matlock and its surrounds, but still can’t be quite sure what we’ll find. For instance, when a walk is described as “moderate ” that could have quite a different meaning when you’re surrounded by all these hills.

Anyway, DoveDale was a really nice surprise

.. including the balancing act …

And Ilam describes itself as NT and a Youth Hostel. Both true, but still fabulous.

And back to our own wonderful view
