Welcome to Matlock Bath

Set in the beautiful gorge of the river Derwent, with attractive riverside gardens, wooded hillsides and rocky limestone crags.

A popular tourist destination since the late 17th Century when the spa waters were discovered, the town remains a popular place for families, bikers and fun seekers. There's plenty to see and do, including this Mining Museum and an exciting cable car ride over the gorge. Steeped in history and with a fascinating cultural heritage, the area is packed with places to visit; from nearby bustling towns of Matlock and Ashbourne to picturesque villages, the Derwent Valley World Heritage Site and the stunning landscapes of the Peak District National Park.
