Belper, situated in the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage site, is a town with a long and famous history dating back to the 13th century, when it was then called Beaurepaire (beautiful retreat), a name that still holds true today. Now you'll find it to be a spirited and bustling town, with attractions including the North Mill, Long Row and the River Gardens. There is a thriving local music and arts scene and the town hosts an annual Arts festival every May as well as Winter and Summer Food festivals and a monthly Farmers Market. The nearby historical village of Wirksworth is also home to a well-established Art and Architecture trail and Arts Festival every September. Just 10 miles away, the popular Peak District town of Matlock, together with its neighbour, Matlock Bath, are set in the beautiful wooded gorge of the River Derwent. The Matlocks offer a range of shops, pubs and restaurants as well as a whole host of other exciting attractions. 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! South of the town is the start of the High Peak Cycle Trail, whilst to the north lie the market town of Bakewell and Chatsworth House - not to be missed! The award-winning town of Belper provides holidaymakers with an excellent base for all that Derbyshire has to offer.

We thoroughly enjoyed out stay, despite having to sadly cut it short due to personal reasons. I really appreciated the text a few days prior to arrival to let me know I had a contact if needed (although it wasn't). Beds extremely comfortable, garden areas lovely and would be great for summer, hot tub was great to relax too. Has all of the amenities needed in the kitchen and bathrooms, a really well decorated property that has evidently had quite a lot of money spent on renovating it! Thank you.

It was so spacious and decorated beautifully. The walks around the lodge were great and got us out for the full day and the hot tub was an added bonus!
