Hi folks, just after some recommendations for somewhere that sleeps for 6 people, good amenities, mtb friendly, and a bloody good pub very nearby hopefully?!
Anybody know anywhere that could fit the bill? Thanks in advance, si.
Not in Matlock - try the Royal Oak at Hurdlow or Barringtons at Darley Dale which is more like a pub with rooms.

Despite it being a tourist town Matlock has few hotels
Another possibility is Darwin Forest

Cheers fella, looked at both of them, bit pricey really, were looking for something that sleeps 6, self catering...I'll keep searching! Thanks anyway tho.
Old Poets Corner in Ashover - 4 miles away. Award winning pub with a self-contained cottage attached and with trails literally on the doorstep.
Cracking area for riding if you want some suggestions on the very fun cheeky stuff, I'm sure you will find some people on here able to help.
Try these

Try Sheriff Lodge, the Sycamore is 200m away, good food and beer, reasonable price.
Can send you routes too.
Thanks all, much apreciate all your help and advice! Will look those places up now!
I'll second LS's recommendation of the old poets in Ashover, I'm in there most weeks either post ride or with the mutt, excellent selection of real ales (and 2 other pubs in the village). Not sure how many the cottage sleeps though.
Also, as said, literally ride straight out the car park onto the trails...
