The Balti’s online presence really doesn’t do this place any favours considering that there Chicken Tikka Masala was heaven sent. NB: Pair it with a Special Naan and you’re onto a winner!

Sightseeing

If you want beautiful views with none of the walking Monsal Head is your spot! If you do fancy a walk park up the car and drop yourself down onto The Monsal Trail. Nice flat easy walking or cycling.
