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.

The house is immaculate and all the fittings and furnishings are of a very high standard. We loved the open plan living area to be together for meals and plenty of space to relax. All appreciated the lovely bedrooms , comfortable beds and luxurious bathrooms ! The views are wonderful from the house too ! We highly recommend The Gate Inn for Sunday lunch ! Hopefully we will be back again for another family get together as it was perfect !
