Luxury Holiday Cottages In Rivelin Valley
Rivelin Valley stretches for nearly four miles from the outskirts of Sheffield through the Peak District National Park, towards the Hope Valley and Edale. Its seven hundred Lime trees make it the second longest avenue of Lime trees in Britain. A relatively fast flowing river, the Rivelin is fed by a constant release of water from the nearby moorland peat. Its flow was exploited for centuries as a power source, driving the water wheels of up to twenty industries (forges, metal-working and flour mills) along its course. The river now flows through the much quieter Rivelin Valley Nature Trail and farmlands. Set on the edge of the Peak district National Park, the Rivelin Valley makes a great base from which to explore the countryside and rent one of the luxury holiday cottages on offer.
