“Excellent apartment, equipped with everything we needed.”

New Mills was a pleasant surprise, lots of cafes, pubs and local shops on hand, with good transport links to Manchester and everyone was very friendly although the Butterfly Café (beneath the apartment) has a limited menu due to the loss of their chef recently.

New Mills was a pleasant surprise, lots of cafes, pubs and local shops on hand, with good transport links to Manchester and everyone was very friendly although the Butterfly Café (beneath the apartment) has a limited menu due to the loss of their chef recently. The weather was reasonable so we could make the most of the fantastic scenery and countryside, recommend the local walks down to the Torrs hydro scheme (disappointing that the Millenium Walkway has had to close) and up Lantern Pike, a great way to blow any cobwebs away. If we didn't have to battle with the M6, we would love to come back again, maybe in a year or two when the motorway is "smartened up"!

“We all had a wonderful time staying at Dragon fly.”

Richard was very welcoming and helpful. The photos on the website do not do this property justice. Highly recommend anyone wanting to visit New Mills and the surrounding towns to stay here. Very comfortable accommodation.

About the location

NEW MILLS

Hayfield 2.5 miles; Buxton 11 miles; Castleton 11.5 mies

New Mills is a small town situated on the borders of North West Derbyshire and Cheshire, forming part of the Derbyshire Peak District. Dating back to the 13th century, the late 20th century saw the Torrs Riverside Park (‘the park under the town’) come into being a place for recreation and relaxation, along with the New Mills Heritage Centre, opened to promote tourism in the area. The Torrs Millennium Walkway, a much-admired bridge, is set deep in the gorge and attracts many visitors, while Chapel en le Frith, the Capital of the Peaks, is only 5 miles away, boasting a cobbled market place and historic old stocks. Within easy driving distance is the delightful spa town of Buxton, famous not only for its therapeutic spring water, but also for its Pavillion Gardens and splendid Victorian Opera House, which boasts a variety of shows, attracting people from all over the world. Within easy driving distance are the Blue John show caves at Castleton and many stately homes such as Chatsworth House and Lyme Hall. You could even leave your car behind as there are direct rail links to Manchester, the Hope Valley and Sheffield. An ideal base for exploring the whole of the Peak District.
