Looking to go out with the Mrs this weekend. She Climbs 4-5, I climb 6b 6b+. Any crags with a good mix of both?

Sport routes of 4 and 5 are thin on the ground in the peak and those that are there are probably not that great, that said horseshoe and harper hill are possibilities and probably a few other quarrys (check sport climbs website), plenty of 6b/+ routes though, could try stoney west, Goddards, garage buttress (dreamcatcher is very good as is 40000 ) max wall in cheedale as well has a few

Afraid you're looking at choss holes (Peak lime quarries). Wear a helmet, avoid the worst, loosest bits of crag, be careful, and finally, get some trad gear.

Masson Lees is a pleasant venue, tucked away behind Matlock. There is a sunny south facing wall with a mixture of easier routes.
