    We loved everything about this beautiful quaint cottage. The location is perfect, the facilities are fantastic too. I would definitely recommend The Watchmakers. We stayed with our 3 year old daughter and she didn't want to leave. Thank you...

Central to the Watchmakers, Matlock Bath was developed as one of England’s first true tourist destinations. It occupies a beautiful position in a limestone gorge on the River Derwent, and boasts attractive riverside gardens and steep wooded hillsides. Matlock Bath has been a popular tourist attraction since the late 17th Century, when the healing properties of its warm spa waters were first discovered. Access to the area was improved in the 18th Century, and by the 19th Century Matlock Bath was a place for society’s finest to visit. The town is a wonderful place to visit, with a long street of shops, cafes, amusement arcades and places of interest, including an aquarium and photographic museum. The riverside walks are great for peaceful, shady strolls, and there is a good children’s playground area to keep younger visitors amused. In addition to the included parking provided by the Watchmakers, the parking in Matlock is very accessible. It can also be accessed by train and bus.
