  • "A lovely spacious, clean and comfortable apartment in a great location."

    We loved our stay and would definitely stay here again - really comfortable beds, nice showers and the kitchen had everything we needed. The outside space is lovely too and was great for our dog. We loved the big windows and balcony at the front overlooking the river. The location is great for walking to cafes and restaurants and it is really easy to use the train and buses to get to Matlock for lots more. Parking in the station car park is just a few minutes away and really cheap. There were nice welcome touches and it was nice to be able to visit the Old Apothecary shop below to get a feel for the history of the place.

    Thank you for taking time to review, we’d love to see you again . Property Owner

The popular Peak District town of Matlock, together with its neighbour, Matlock Bath, has been attracting visitors to the area since the spa was developed in the late 17th century. Set in the beautiful wooded gorge of the River Derwent, the Matlocks offer a range of shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as a host of attractions including Gulliver’s Kingdom and the Peak District Mining Museum. Magnificent views down the gorge can be enjoyed from the cable car which takes visitors up to the Heights of Abraham – a great place for all the family with its showcaves, nature trail, water gardens and Owl Maze. South of the town is the start of the High Peak Cycle Trail, whilst a short drive away is the National Tramway Museum at Crich.
