Darley Dale is a popular and friendly village with several shops, pubs, the Whitworth park and centre, as well as two primary schools. Located between Bakewell and Matlock, walking, cycling and driving routes around the majestic Peak District are possible in all directions and the popular market towns of Buxton and Chesterfield are close by too. Chatsworth House and the Chatsworth Estate are within 5 miles too. It is a tremendous location in all respects.
