The Norfolk Arms Hotel

Highlight • Restaurant

Amazing pub on the crossroad between Sheffield and the Peak District.

It's cyclist and walker friendly, and is extremely popular with mountain bikers who use Lady Cannings and road cyclists …

Tip by

Great starting and finishing spot, massive car park allows users easy access to Lady Canning's, and the Peak District beyond. The Norfolk Arms provide great beer and food, though can be very busy when the sun comes out. Enjoy!!
