Finding parking close by a bit of a lottery . Nearest free long stay is 5 to 10 mins away . A few more shelves and hooks in bathroom would be handy. Otherwise Wirksworth is a good location for local attractions , Cromford Mills and preserved railway etc.

It is in a lovely peaceful location 5 minutes walk from the centre of Wirksworth. The property is a real home from home and has everything you need for your stay and more. The kitchen is fantastic with a beautiful range style cooker, full sized fridge freezer and washing machine. There is everything you need to self cater during your stay. The lounge area is comfortable and nicely furnished but the creme de la creme has to be the beautiful super king size bed in the main bedroom. I have just had the best weeks sleep I've had in years. The cottage and Wirksworth make an ideal base for exploring. 5-10 minutes drive from Matlock Bath and the Heights of Abraham and within easy reach of Bakewell, Ashbourne, Chatsworth House and Chesterfield. Wirksworth itself is historically interesting and there is everything you need here for your stay. Pubs, restaurants, takeaways, grocery shops and everything else in between. We had a lovely time and the dog particularly liked the meadow a few minutes walk from the cottage. All in all a fantastic week away. Thank you.
