  • "We had a lovely long weekend in Churchside house."

    Matlock is lovely, there is so much to see and do in the area, and the local amenities are excellent. The house was comfortable and well equipped. I would say, as mentioned in the listing, that neither the house nor the location are really suitable for anyone with mobility issues. The stairs are steep, the walk down to town is very steep, and there is no allocated car parking so you may need to park away from the house. None of that was an issue for us, but I could imagine it being a bit tricky. One other thing to mention is the church bells. They peal the time every quarter hour day and night - the kids found it disturbed them a little bit but ear plugs sorted this so, if like me you are sensitive to noise when sleeping, bring a supply!

  • "Very nice little cottage and well situated."

    Very clean and with all necessary conveniences. I could not work the hob and the information about recycling and refusal collection days needs updating. We enjoyed the stay very much. Thanks.

To unwind, kick back and relax in the sitting room, complete with two plush sofas, a well-placed electric log burner, and a sleek Smart TV that can cater movie nights with your loved ones.

When sleep finally calls, head upstairs to refresh with a rejuvenating shower before you catch your valuable rest in one of the home's three inviting bedrooms, choosing between two king-sizes and a single.

If you can tear yourself from your wonderful new dwelling, set out on foot to explore Matlock and beyond.

A brief stroll will bring you to your nearest convenience store, the Go Local Community, where you can stock up on homely essentials, whilst a hearty pub lunch can be savoured at The Duke William or The Red Lion.

During your stay, make sure you stop by the Pic Tor War Memorial, amble through Hall Leys Park, and delight with a peaceful walk along the River Derwent towards the historic Matlock Derwent Bridge.

For a full day out, jump in the car and head west into the Peak District National Park, a magnificent region home to Froggatt Edge, the Mermaid's Pool, Bamford Mill, and the Treak Cliff and Blue John Caverns.

About the location

MATLOCK

Matlock Bath 1 mile; Bakewell 8 miles.

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. To the north are the market town of Bakewell and Chatsworth House and Park - not to be missed!
