This is a truly stunning waterfall, when viewed from the bottom. Plenty of rocks to climb/walk on too. The car park costs at the time of this post £5.00 for cars, with a beautiful little, what I took for a cafe/shop there too. I didn’t go into this building though. You can venture to the very top of the waterfall by taking the path on the car park side. Be warned though. At the top, on my visit it was like a bog!! It’s deceiving just how deep that mud is. What looks like any other usual slightly water logged area that you may squelch through is 6-9 inches deep! A stone path, like an alpine path should be put in.

Lovely place to visit. Be aware that the road to the waterfall is single track with passing places but definitely worth the drive when you arrive there. Parking cost £5 which I found a little steep and the toilets cost 40p. There is a tea room but I didn't visit so not sure if it's any good.

Lovely little cafe and B&B and the foot of the falls, pay and display carpark is reasonable and the cafe prices/service is good. Everything is well signposted and easily accessible.

STUNNING waterfall, with great viewpoints straight out of the car. About 50 steps and you're there. Easy!

The surrounding hills and views are, of course, amazing if you put the effort in to get there.

Well worth the drive out.

Beautiful waterfall with forest walks, great for dogs and active kids. Nice tea room/cafe on site. The road leading to it can be a pain if its busy as its a single track road with passing places for approx 5 miles, so as long as drivers are courteous and careful then it's fine.

Beautiful location (on a sunny day!) short hike up to top (approx. 1.25km and 120m ascent), though can walk easily to the bottom.
Simple tea room at bottom with view of waterfall.
Parking is £5 by tearoom though if you need a pee it's 40p... cash!
You can park on the road about 500m away but I really don't recommend it as it is single track road and you can't really turn round as some cars were finding as we left.

Gorgeous waterfall, the highest in England and Wales.
Plenty of walks around the area too.
Parking nearby is £5
There's a cafe by the parking which was lovely. Friendly staff and a nice choice of meals, snacks and desserts for after a walk.

The waterfall itself and woodlands is absolutely stunning. A must visit.

However expensive parking £5 be aware pay as soon as you can otherwise £100 instant fine, take change as 40p to go to the toilet have to be quick getting through as the turn gate will lock you in, so need an extra 40p to move it again.
Had a meal and coffee at cafe disgusting.

Beautiful place . Lovely location .
Amazing views of waterfall .
Waterfall is very short distance from car park . Car Park charges £5 up-to 8 hours . It’s better to buy some delicious cakes from the tiny little cafe just near the waterfall . If you want a bit of walk just park your car in the nearest area free of cost I think !! We haven’t paid anything & later we saw the actual car park which was payable. The cafe stop serving hot food at 3 in the afternoon but we lucky enough to try cakes and tea there. Carrot cake was so yummy only last one left for us .
It’s a beautiful place with some amazing views . Really good place to spend time close to the nature .
