Our last day. Due to covid we had to be out of the cottage earlier than usual but that was ok. We packed up & headed to the south Peaks for a stoll along Dovedale (last visit when I was a child). This is a lovely, easy stoll along the river - it would usually be easier but the high water levels had flooded some of the path & the stepping stones impassable!
We strolled along to Reynards Cave and I decided to brave the muddy climb up to the cave itself - slightly anticlimactic to be honest!
Then we said farewell to the Peak District & headed south stopping near Birmingham to have lunch at the Litchfield Tea Company & pick up some essentials from my dad. Here I discovered Rooibos Earl Grey & bought a pack to take home with me. On the way home we picked up the ferrets & arrived back home to a loving greeting from our cat - although that was partly because we arrived after his supper time & he was hungry!
