Beautiful little hidden gem with a trail to walk if you have dogs or just want to keep fit..lovely little cafe. Lovely people, nice food

A nice little cafe, situated in the grounds of the old mining pit. Brilliant service and would recommend a visit if in the area.

Cafe and free car park providing access to various walking and cycling trails. The cafe provides reasonably priced food and drinks with friendly staff. From the centre it is easy to access the miles of well-surfaced trails criss-crossing the woodland which are perfect for horse riding, cycling or just a relaxing stroll. A "coal garden" provides a link to the past with mining heritage items on display.

I came here for a visit just before the snow arrived as it's been years since I last came... There's car parking next to the centre with plenty of spaces available. I didn't manage to go inside the centre as they were just closing... Oooops!! Bad timing!! I had a smashing walk down the Silverhill Trail heading towards Skegby with my pet dog (he's not too fond of snow nowadays)... there's lots of trails heading off into all different directions and plenty of places to explore ... It's fabulous for dog walking and there's miles of trails for walking and running, especially if you want to head off towards Pleasley Pit Museum... That's a place I'm planning on going to soon as I've heard good reports about it... There's beautiful countryside to be seen in any direction... A great way to spend a day ... So come and visit... You'll be pleased you did!! Happy Days...

We stopped whist on a walk from the Pleasley pit trail. Wow what an amazing place, the volunteers are so friendly and welcoming. The sausage and bacon cobs are very tasty and everything is reasonably priced. It felt like this was the heart of the local community. We'll definitely be back soon! We have been back and it was just as fantastic
