About this property

Woodpecker - Matlock

Woodpecker Cottage is a super cottage hidden away on a quiet little lane on the outskirts of Matlock. Newly created, it provides really classy accommodation with its superb lounge with log burning stove, ultra-modern dining and kitchen areas, luxurious bedrooms with White Company linen and French doors out onto the two patios. Wander along the lane and you are immediately in lovely countryside. Wander down into Matlock to find lots of local shops, restaurants and many a pub to quench your thirst. Or just laze on the patios and listen to the birds.
Matlock is a lovely town nestling in a cauldron of hills with jumbles of cottages cascading down the hillsides and the river Derwent splashing down the valley. Hall Leys Park and the Arc leisure centre are super. There are lots of little shops to explore as well as two good supermarkets.

Lovely Woodpecker

The property is lovely . Great layout with the kitchen, dining and sitting areas being upstairs to make the most of the views and the bedrooms , bathroom downstairs . The downstairs is accessed by a spiral staircase so not so good with very small children . The property is fully stocked with everything you could need . Marilyn had left a lovely sponge cake , fresh flowers and provisions for breakfast . The wood burner is a great addition . Marilyn provides enough logs ,fire lighters and kindling The property is in a great location so close to wonderful walks yet 10 minutes in the car into Matlock itself . You could walk into Matlock it would take approx 25 mins but be warned the walk back up is very steep . We loved our stay , can’t praise it highly enough and plan to go back .
