Ashdale Guesthouse – A Favorite for Families in Matlock (Derbyshire)

Ashdale Guesthouse is a Grade II listed Victorian building in the center of Matlock Bath. The property has been sympathetically restored and offers rooms with unique decorations and historical features. All rooms are en-suite and include spacious family rooms for larger groups.

Each morning, the hotel serves a full cooked-to-order breakfast using locally sourced ingredients. Guests choose from the menu the night before, including warm dishes, fresh pastries, and vegetarian options. The dining room overlooks the river and provides a relaxed setting to start the day.

The property offers free private parking for all rooms on site, a rare advantage in central Matlock Bath. There is an outdoor seating area and a picnic area for guests to use during their stay. The garden and terrace provide a quiet place to relax after exploring.

Dog-friendly rooms are available upon prior arrangement, and the hotel welcomes pets in the dining room during breakfast. The property has two resident dogs and provides dog treats each morning. This makes Ashdale a suitable choice for travelers who do not want to leave their pets behind.

Ashdale Guesthouse sits opposite the river Derwent, a 10-second walk from shops, pubs, and the cable car to Heights of Abraham. Chatsworth House is 14 km away, Buxton Opera House 35 km, and Alton Towers 36 km. The hosts provide personalized recommendations and discounts for local attractions.
