"The Peak District forms the southern extremity of the Pennines.[5] Much of it is upland above 1,000 feet (300 m), its highest point being Kinder Scout at 2,087 ft (636 m).[6] Despite its name, the landscape has fewer sharp peaks than rounded hills, plateaus, valleys, limestone gorges and gritstone escarpments (the "edges").[7][8] The mostly rural area is surrounded by conurbations and large urban areas, including Manchester, Huddersfield, Sheffield, Derby and Stoke-on-Trent. The national park has formal boundaries. It covers most of the Dark Peak and White Peak, but the wider Peak District is less well defined.[9] The Dark Peak is largely uninhabited moorland and gritstone escarpments in the northern Peak District and its eastern and western margins."

"The Three Counties System's most southerly entrance is currently Large Pot (54°11′11″N2°29′18″W / 54.186439°N 2.488420°W, NGR SD 6281 7685) on the northerly flank of Kingsdale in North Yorkshire, and the most northerly entrance is currently Bull Pot of the Witches (54°13′35″N2°31′10″W / 54.226398°N 2.519514°W, NGR SD 6623 8131) beneath Barbon Low Fell in Cumbria – a distance of almost 5 kilometres (3 mi). Between the two, the system passes beneath Ireby Fell and Leck Fell which are in Lancashire. The system runs mainly north–south, its western extent being limited by the Craven Fault which truncates the limestone exposure, and the eastern extent where the limestones are conformable overlain by younger rocks."

"To the east the area is clearly defined by the impressive cliffs of the North Sea coast. The northern and western boundaries are defined by the steep scarp slopes of the Cleveland Hills edging the Tees lowlands and the Hambleton Hills above the Vale of Mowbray. To the south lies the broken line of the Tabular Hills and the Vale of Pickering."

Inside you will find a totally relaxed atmosphere with wooden decor and a range of rustic and antique furniture that are always up for sale.

"When to go: Head down for a lazy brunch, take a book, order a large coffee, and while away a few hours. What to have: The partisan breakfast (meat, veggie and vegan available) cooked and served in a skillet, is comfort food at its best. For something a little lighter, try their Persian eggs with Medjoul dates and warming spices."

"Partisan is a vibrant, independent coffee shop located on Micklegate in York and the cafe has been a long term dream for owner, Florencia. They serve a modern menu for breakfast, brunch, lunch and afternoon tea every day of the week. And they also open on evenings later in the week for casual dining."

"Brew & Brownie have two locations in York, just doors apart from one another on Museum Street. One of the locations operates as a Bakeshop and the other as a great little cafe. Inspired by the seasons and the tastes from their countryside upbringings, the owners of Brew & Brownie serve a menu of sweet and savoury treats plus premium coffees and loose leaf teas."

"Sebby’s Deli, 90-92 Otley Rd, Leeds, LS6 4BA - Visit now. Opening in 2011, Sebby’s Deli is named after the owners camper van, which they used to travel across America before settling in this leafy suburb of Leeds. If you want homemade food and friendly service, it’s well worth the visit."

"Sebby’s Deli is a charming cafe in an old cottage in Headingley. You can take a break with one of their loose leaf teas or a North Star coffee. They’ve also got a menu of tempting dishes – their breakfast menu is served until 4pm, so you can get your mouth around the Mexican corn hash, cinnamon toast or a granola sundae."

"Sited at the top of Micklegate a few yards from the city walls this bar from independent Scottish brewing giants Brewdog opened after a protracted court battle with a local trader – much to the relief of their loyal following of fans in the York area. I say fans because Brewdog as a company have so far attracted investment in their crowdfunding equity scheme from over 100,000 loyal drinkers. The multi-roomed bar is huge."

"Perhaps one of the most underrated pubs in Leeds, Veritas on Great George Street is, and will always be, a great child-friendly place to eat. Families are warmly welcomed and although there’s no specific kids’ menu, the main menu caters well for young stomachs with nachos, burgers, sandwiches and tempting small plates. Floor to ceiling windows at the front make it a perfect spot for people watching, while the partitioned rooms with fireplaces create cosy little dens to fend off the world outside."

"Most pubs have seriously upped their food game in recent years (thank you, smoking ban) and Veritas combines a tempting range of real and craft ales with an imaginative yet reasonably priced menu. For every steak and ale pie there’s a sea bass and crab tagliatelle, and the burgers never disappoint. Where: 43 Great George Street, Leeds (near LGI)"
