We had a fantastic stay, location is great, ideal if like us you are keen walkers, pub at the end of the, road was well placed for a rewarding drink at the end of the day. Had great fun in the games room / bar. Nice outside space for evening drinks.

What a gem! A super quirky property, beautifully decorated and so many thoughtful features. Easy communication with Clare, who was incredibly helpful. I'd absolutely recommend this property, however with the stairs and the layout, maybe not the best place for eager toddlers!

Such a beautiful place perfect for the family. Really well equipped, clean, and well decorated throughout - they really have thought of everything. Definitely not for the less mobile, as there are a lot of steps in the property and it is a long steep hill down into the town. This wasnt a problem for us at all as 3 people in our 20s - we absolutely Read moreloved it! The owner is also incredibly friendly and helpful. We would 100% stay again! Hide

Matlock view was a beautifully presented house, immaculate with amazing views. A lovely small courtyard to sit and relax outside. We stayed for a week, there was everything we needed for cooking meals daily. The games room was great for the children. The house is on 4 floors so lots of stairs. It was only a 15 min walk into Matlock centre where theRead morere is a wide variety of shops, coffee shops and a lovely park. The steep climb back to the house was challenging and kept us fit .
