Best Gelato in Whaley Bridge

"One of the best ice cream parlours in Manchester, Ginger's Comfort Emporium is a Northern Quarter favourite handing out dairy and vegan scoops all year round. With specials including Campari and coconut, Eccles cake and Chorlton Crack (peanut butter and salted caramel), these frozen spoonfuls are always at their best when served in sandwich form. We all scream for these quirky ice cream sandwiches."

"Ginger’s is the perfect place to go for a Mancunian-made ice cream. An award winning real dairy ice cream business, this Affleck’s emporium offers a range of exciting flavours which even include vegan options. The flavours change quite regularly so there will always be something new to try on every visit; they recently served a vegan chocolate brownie flavour which went down very well!"

"Products sourced from local producers, Ginger’s is on the first floor of Afflecks which means it’s already cool – and that’s before trying the ice cream. Like Gino’s, they have loads of stuff to suit your ice cream needs including dairy-free ice cream. Be sure to try the Chorlton Crack."

"A post shared by k a t i e (@daydreamkatie) on Aug 6, 2016 at 9:46am PDT. Located on a working farm, this dairy and ice cream parlour may be a little off the beaten track, but it’s a great place to escape to for a quiet day out, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Nestled in the pretty village of Dungworth, just outside of the Peak District, you can visit the farm’s on site ice cream parlour for a tasty cone or scrumptious sundae, or enjoy a wander around the area before picking up a tub from the farm shop to take home with you."

"Gino’s is the newbie on Market Street, a small parlour that channels Italy from the music to the ingredients used in the gelato that’s made fresh every day. Tuck into the smooth Ferrero Rocher or the refreshing classic strawberry gelato – or any of the fabulous flavours – in a tub, cone, on a waffle, in a milkshake or even on a pancake."

"Frurt specialise in Frozen Yogurt (Froyo), with dairy and non-dairy options available. The dessert spot has several locations scattered around Manchester, with more than 50 toppings (many of which are vegetarian, with some vegan) up for grabs. You create your masterpiece by picking and choosing from fresh fruit, dry fruit, sweets, Chocolate and premium sauces such as pistachio, ruby and Bueno including warm sauces like biscoff and Nutella."

"The Sheffield Institute of Arts Gallery is a gallery for the people, made by the people. It showcases the very best work from the local community and visiting artists, giving a more intimate feel than any other exhibit on this list – which makes sense given that it’s connected to Sheffield Hallam University. But just because it mainly features new and upcoming artists doesn’t mean you won’t see great work; previous collaborators include David Mellow, Ken Garland, and George Grosz – all well-renowned in their field."

"Starting life in 1995, S1 Artspace was initially an art studio run by volunteers in Sheffield’s west district. Since then, it’s grown into an organisation that pioneers new artwork and ideas from artists from all walks of life, from recent graduates to international superstars. Over 500 artists have been featured over the last 20 years, including seven Turner Prize nominees and six winners, so the calibre is always high."

"Ecclesall Woods covers a massive 350 acres and is now a Local Nature Reserve after years of providing timber and charcoal for local industry. Spend a few hours hiking through the woods and taking in the local wildlife and flowers. There are a number of landmarks within the woods, including two historic mills, with one dating back to the 1600s."

"Ecclesall is a woodland situated between the south of Abbeydale Road and Ecclesall. The Woods hosts old trees, and a wide variety of wild animals such as squirrels, birds, and many more. Ecclesall woods remains one of Sheffield’s best walking destinations, as they have several streams and bridges."

"For a countryside walk close to home, Longshaw Estate is the place to be. We absolutely love it and I know it’s very popular with families in Sheffield!. At Longshaw Estate there’s the perfect variety of woodlands, open countryside space, magical trees and rolling views."

"Kinder Scout is the highest point in the Peak District and is, therefore, a popular route for hikers. The walk from Edale goes up Jacob’s Ladder towards some incredible rock formations and, of course, the Kinder Low trig point. It is easy to see why it is one of the best Peak District walks because it is wild, unspoilt and a lot of fun to scramble and climb."

"Edale Village Hall Car Park - 10 minute drive from Losehill House. As the tallest peak in the Peak District, the views from the top of Kinder Scout are wide-reaching and truly beautiful. On a clear day, the city of Manchester can be seen from the plateau, as well as the mountains of Snowdonia in Wales."
