    “Overall a lovely stay with friends, hot tub was lovely, warm and ready for us.”

    Has everything you need and hosts were very responsive. The lodge is listed as sleeps 7, which it does if you share, however the seating at the dining table is for 6, there is a corner sofa which is very snug for 5 let alone for 7. The outdoor space has a seating area for 5, the chairs are quite rickety, uncomfortable and could do with an upgrade. There are 2 sun loungers which were lovely. There are lots of bugs! Flies and spiders and cobwebs, which can’t be helped in the countryside, ...

Flies and spiders and cobwebs, which can’t be helped in the countryside, The hot tub is huge! Would be lovely if the area around the hot tub had a spruce up with some lights and greenery, the out building it is under did not look finished? Shops are about 1.5 mile walk away for any essentials or top ups. The drive is easy to miss and they advise no low cars which I would agree with, it’s a dirt track that is narrow and bumpy. Overall, it was a nice stay and we would go again.

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.
