Pounding around the Peak District? Refuel at the civilised Courtyard restaurant in Moorside, with generous helpings of wholesome regional English food - imaginatively conceived, meticulously prepared and beautifully presented. Start with rich Brussels pâté, brilliantly set off with tangy fruit chutney. Follow with meltingly tender roast beef with crisp, light Yorkshire pudding and thyme-scented gravy, or get some environmentally-responsible Brownie points with the delicious poached hoki fillet, jazzed up with a vibrant lemon and herb sauce. Vegetarians get a nice change from the veggie standards with battered aubergines served with mango chutney dip. The restaurant's atmosphere is cheerful and relaxed, with a lively buzz of conversation, and the surrounding moorland scenery is stunning.
