There are beautiful walks set among the woodland of Dimmingsdale and the Churnet valley; the Pugin masterpiece of Alton Castle, now a Catholic Youth Centre, towering over the valley. There are three historic churches - St. Peter's and St John's at the heart of the village as well as the unique little Methodist chapel with its historic connections to Hugh Bourne.
The village boasts a newly refurbished Village Hall with facilities for up to 200 people and there are excellent Hotels and Public Houses as well as good Bed and Breakfast accommodation.You can find further information about all these attractions and facilities by exploring this web site.
