Description
Nestled in the charming town of Matlock, Derbyshire discover this superb two-bedroom property, The Old Stables.
Boasting an enclosed garden with lawn and furniture, a stylish and well-stocked kitchen, two neatly-presented bedrooms, as well as close proximity to the local amenities The Old Stables welcomes four guests to relish a peaceful escape to the Peak District.
Upon entering your new home-from-home, kick back and relax in the homely sitting room as the woodburning stove roars away next to you; allow the allocated chef to rustle up a tasty dish, taking advantage of a fantastic array of high-quality appliances ahead of settling down at the dining table to tuck in.
If you prefer, why not make use of the lovely enclosed garden to delight in alfresco mealtimes, or enjoy a late-night tipple as the sun sets in the distance?
Retreat to the first floor to take an indulgent soak in the tub if you begin to feel sleepy, ahead of opting for either a king-size or twin bedroom to catch your rest in.
If you can tear yourself away, begin your adventures at Lumsdale Waterfall, which resides only a short walk away from your doorstep, or head into the centre of Matlock to find Matlock Bridge and Hall Leys Park where you can admire an abundance of fauna and flora.
Here you can also stock up on the essentials at the handy convenience store or treat your loved ones to a hearty meal at one of several pubs and restaurants including Duke of Wellington and The Sycamore Inn.
Close by, you can also pay a visit to Matlock Bath Aquarium, the Peak District Mining Museum and Heights of Abraham, perfect for admiring your stunning surroundings from a great height.
Venture into the Peak District National Park for more adventures, offering much to do and see such as The Hidden Druids Caves, Haddon Hall and Chatsworth House.
However you choose to fill your days here in Derbyshire, do it from the charming base of The Old Stables.

What guests are saying
The cottage had great potential, but was obviously unloved.
It will no longer be available as now on the rental market. There was some discrepancy between the description and the reality in all areas. There was no enclosed lawned garden, it was an enclosed patio area, not dog friendly. The parking was tricky any car over a Ford focus size would find it hard to park. The neighbours whilst friendly did not make parking any easier by leaving cars and objects in areas that would have helped. The house access was in a narrow lane and hard to find. There was no welcome pack/instructions. The lounge furniture was not comfortable, the best bit was the kitchen. The boiler made an unusual noise when it was working, we were worried it would fail. The bathroom needed a good clean and paintwork was patchy in areas. The shower trap was DISGUSTING, it not been cleaned for a long time. The sink plug did not work and was not clean, cobwebs between cabinet and wall. We struggled and did not find a switch for the light in the entrance hall, to find that you had to tighten the light bulb to get it to work, and loosen it to turn it off, not helpful if under 6’! The recycling instructions were confusing.
Nice kitchen / dining room.
Lounge ok but not finished decoration. Bedrooms ok but poor storage and beds are rock hard. Bathroom ok, but the door did not close properly which is not ideal to say the least. Wifi very poor (I think it's a booster from next door) and had to sit in porch area to get any kind of connection.
2nd time staying, like home from home, quiet beautiful scenery from the old stables.
Lots of walks for us and the dog. Everything you needed within the old stables Will be back next year
