In the market place at Hartington, this shop is stacked floor to counter with cheese, the local blues out front. The village has a long dairy history, and the shop carries the nearby creamery’s Stilton and its soft Dovedale Blue — a Peak District cheese made within a few miles of the River Dove. Open daily, with good walking country in every direction.
