Location

These five cottages all have two bedrooms and sleep 4. They are just four miles north of Matlock and set in private grounds surrounding the lake within 10 acres of unspoilt woodland, an ideal place to enjoy the abundant wildlife and a picnic or two.

Darwin Lake nestles in the hills between craggy moorland and The Derwent Valley World Heritage Site, in the beautiful Peak District / Derbyshire Dales. It is surrounded by forestry land and many attractions are close at hand. The bustling tourist centres of Matlock and Matlock Bath are less than 6 miles away. Designated the first National Park in 1951, the Peak District is a wonderfully picturesque area for walking or cycling with masses of open views and interesting areas to explore.

Within half an hours car journey you can visit Chatsworth House, Carsington Water, Crich Tramway Museum, Matlock and Matlock Bath, the Heights of Abraham and Chesterfield with its famous crooked spire. For the more energetic, Alton Towers, The American Adventure Theme Park, Buxton and the Manifold Valley are also within easy reach.

With the small bustling towns of Matlock, Ashbourne, Bakewell and various Mill Shops nearby and the Meadowhall shopping centre less than an hour away, spend a day browsing the shops.
