2 Bed Cottage in Matlock

About this property

Tucked away in the village of Bonsall, this stylish home awaits couples or small families wanting to explore the scenic Derbyshire countryside. Bonsall itself is a welcoming and picturesque village with local shops, a cosy cafe, and friendly pubs. No trip to the area is complete without a visit to the Heights of Abraham (3.5 miles) to hop on the cable car and soar over the Derwent Valley. For a fascinating glimpse into the past, Cromford Mills (2.5 miles) is a must-visit. This UNESCO-listed site was the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, and you can learn all about its rich history through engaging tours and exhibits. For a rewarding hike, the High Tor & Matlock Bath loop provides stunning panoramic views over the Derwent Valley. For a longer adventure, the Riber Castle, Cromford & Matlock Bath loop takes you through history-rich landscapes, including the ruins of Riber Castle and the charming town of Cromford.
