About this property
A great base that's 10 mins walk from Matlock
Your family and friends will be close to everything when you stay at this centrally located place. The peak district is just a short drive away. It's a perfect base for walking, cycling and climbing. The house is on an estate and well equipped warm and cosy. A good choice of pubs and takeaways in walking distance.
