Matlock is the county town of Derbyshire, England. Located on the edge of the Peak District it is not far from Cromford, Botany Bay, Bonsall, Wirksworth, Winster, and Ashover and is one of over fifty towns and villages in Derbyshire in which Go2 has cottages or holidays lets available. The nearest cities are Derby (population 229,407), Sheffield (population 439,866), and Nottingham (which has a population of 249,584 according to the 2001 Census).
Matlock is twinned with the Eaubonne in France, and nearby is the former spa resort of Matlock Bath. As a base for exploring the Peak District Matlock represents an excellent choice of location for any kind of break or holiday in this most scenic part of England. Follow the links to find holiday cottages and lets available in this area on Go2, or view the surrounding area on the map below.
For many of those staying in our holiday cottages in Derbyshire, the main appeal of the county will be the unspoilt scenery of the Peak District, in the north of the county. However, there are many other attractions waiting for you in this varied region,
Derbyshire boasts a number of fine country houses, including Chatsworth House & Gardens, one of our finest stately homes with a magnificent chapel, not to mention an impressive water cascade and the towering plume of the Emperor Fountain. And Hardwick Hall in Doe Lea is one of England’s finest Elizabethan houses, with an amazing frontage of tall windows. Bolsover Castle, dating from the 12th Century, is also well worth a visit during one of our Derby cottage holidays.
The city of Derby has some excellent shopping and the Cathedral is famous for its impressive tower. If you’re in a ghoulish mood, pay a visit to Derby Gaol, a popular visitor attraction based in the old dungeons of Derby County Gaol. Afterwards, why not take a stroll in Derby Arboretum, England’s first public park, or take a look around Pickford’s House, a marvellous example of 18th Century architecture.

Travelling to or from Ireland? Don't forget the ferry! Not only does it give you
the freedom of taking your own car but it provides a superb experience of travelling
by sea and exploring the coastline. With convenient routes between Holyhead and Dublin, or Pembroke and Rosslare, we recommend
Irish Ferries for great, low-cost, transport. They are the leading Irish ferry company and provide both an excellent service, and excellent prices.
