Location: Wirksworth

Matlock 6 miles.

Wirksworth is a small, charming market town situated just a few miles from Matlock, on the edge of the White Peak. Wirksworth is full of character with many buildings of architectural interest, including its magnificent parish church. Visitors will enjoy exploring the ancient “jitties” and courtyards of the Puzzle Gardens, along with the Heritage Centre, as well as the delightful surrounding countryside including nearby Carsington Water, Black Rocks and the High Peak Trail. Rock climbing and cycling can be enjoyed here at every level, and there is good walking all around. Well Dressing is unique to Derbyshire, and Wirksworth combines this tradition with a lively carnival. The annual Arts festival attracts international performers of every kind. Beautiful Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall are within easy reach, as well as Matlock Bath with its spectacular cable car, the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway and Gulliver's Kingdom. Only 2 miles away, the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site in Cromford is not to be missed. In all, Wirksworth is a great location for a varied holiday.

Lovely spot, lovely cottage.
Mrs Easton, London, October 2012

A delightful cottage, warm, comfortable, with everything one could wish for supplied. The rear door leads into a cave cut back into the rock. There is a particularly cosy sitting room on the first floor, and everything for my visit was spotlessly clean.
Dr Hayburn, Newport Pagnell, October 2012

The cottage was perfectly situated to visit the Peak District, quite centralised. Everything was provided that we needed and we even received a bottle of wine and flowers on our arrival which was a nice touch.
Mrs Taylor, Hebden Bridge, August 2012

The quirkiness of this property was very enjoyable and the owners were very helpful.
Mr Howard, Stockton-on-Tees, August 2012
