About this property

Newly refurbished luxury 5 bed riverside house with hot tub and annexe.

A unique, newly renovated, riverside, 5 bedroom holiday home with a large hot tub.

This stunning property is located right on the river Derwent, on the boundary of the Peak District National Park in Darley Bridge. Just a short drive from Matlock and Matlock bath.

It is the perfect location for relaxing and watching the world go by after a busy day exploring the many trails and peaks in the area or even for fishing on our private stretch of river, or launching a canoe / kayak for a leisurely river cruise down to Matlock.

With off street secure parking for 3 cars, this property is perfect for a large family or a group of friends and is pet friendly too.

We have our own private stretch of river with fishing rights of approximately 50m up to the bridge, after the bridge you can also fish for free but is owned by an angling club so is not private. Rod license is required but fish include: Trout, Grayling, Chub and Roach.

The property is split between a 3 bedroom character property maintaining it's unique, traditional features and internal access to an adjoining self contained 2 bedroom modern annexe, both refurbished to a high standard. This property would be ideal for two families to rent the same property whilst also having your own space.

Hot tub was amazing and spotless,just like the whole house. The dog was well catered for and she enjoyed her stay. We didn't find the hot tub floodlight switch until we were leaving,so a note about it would have helped. Also lights in the hot tub didn't work,but not a major issue. The towel rail in the ensuite wasn't working. Apart from those issues we had a fantastic weekend. Thank you

Superb property!

This house was perfect for our college friends' reunion. The location is wonderful, overlooking the river, with numerous outdoor spaces. There is a lovely walk that starts right opposite the house. The house was super clean, well-equipped, and very spacious. Dan ensured the home had almost everything anyone could need, and everything was in great working condition. We could not have asked for a better place.

The accommodation was beautiful with more than enough facilities to our needs.

We went as a family of 10 with age ranging from 10 to 70+ and everyone loved the accommodation and location. I highly recommend this place as the host Dan replied to all my queries quickly and was not strict on timings. We had a fabulous time and this was due to the accommodation being so great!
