The location was simply perfect, with a lovely proximity to all the eateries and amusements in the area, as well as the walks and scenery. Our room was clean, warm and spacious and we all slept very soundly (better than at home)! The breakfast was perfect, exactly the right amount to kickstart our days with a lovely selection too. The hosts were so kind and hospitable and went above and beyond to accommodate us, as well as give us great advice and information about the local area. Would absolutely recommend!

Could'nt fault it.

Ten out of ten all round. Lovely building inside and out with very friendly and attentive hosts. Great central location with great river views from our room. I'm a big lad and like my food but the breakfast was more than enough for me and seen both me and the wife right through to our evening meal. Already looking at Matlock Bath for next year and we'll definitely be staying at The Ashdale again. Highly recommended.

Truly wonderful

We had a fantastic three night stay. Stunning location with loads to do in walking distance. The room was beautiful and huge. There was a scorching heatwave when we stayed but the room didn’t get too hot and the bed was so comfy that we still slept well. Lastly, the hosts are wonderful. The breakfast was delicious and they’re so knowledgable about things to do in the local area. Thank you very much for a lovely stay.
