Lumsdale House was built by the local mill owner in 1970 in the National Heritage listed conservation area in the heart of the Lumsdale Valley. It lies on the edge of Matlock, which is full of historical interest and natural beauty. Approached by electric gates and a gravelled driveway leading to a large turning circle, this beautiful detached property enjoys views over stunning landscaped gardens, with large ponds and various seating areas. The garden has its Joseph Paxton trademark features and has been given a whole new lease of life by the owner who is a botanical garden designer. There are various seating and dining areas and a sweeping lawn leading to a top pond which cascades into the main pond with views towards Tansley. The property itself is entered by a spacious reception hall with its original mouldings, ceiling rose, coving and oak-clad pillars either side. Guests have the choice of a drawing room or living room which has a wood burner in the original stone fireplace and French doors to both sides, one leading to the enclosed decking area and another set into the fabulous orangery. The orangery boasts a York flagstone floor with olive trees, a water feature, original vines and a stove, and makes a perfect place in which to enjoy a relaxing evening drink.
Within the property the breakfast kitchen is fully equipped and even has its own temperature controlled wine store and matching fridge/freezer with integrated water/ice machine. It also boasts beech units, an island unit and a Belfast sink. A separate study and drawing room, four large bedrooms, single bedroom and en-suites with roll-top, freestanding claw-foot baths make this property the ideal retreat to spend time at whilst enjoying the wonderful sights of the Peak District.
Lumsdale House’s fantastic location makes it only a few minutes’ drive from the spectacular Peak District National Park and the popular towns of Matlock and Matlock Bath. Chatsworth House, and Bakewell with its famous pudding shop, are close by. No visit to Lumsdale would be complete without a walk in the adjacent wooded gorge offering outstanding natural beauty, including a stunning waterfall (which can be faintly heard from the house) and an ancient water mill. All in all, this property makes a fantastic holiday location to escape to at any time of year. Shop, pub and restaurant 500 yards.

Fantastic house in the country and near a brewery
My friends and I had a thoroughly enjoyable two night stay here. The house is large and could accommodate the five of us with ease. We also appreciated the nearby walks and brewery. We will likely look to book again.

I treated my son who had disabilities to a weekend here for his 18th birthday, 4 of his friends also
I treated my son who had disabilities to a weekend here for his 18th birthday, 4 of his friends also joined us. We had a wonderful time, the house was easy for him to walk around and had a large shower that we could put a shower stool in. The house is clean and very well presented. The kitchen is very well equipped. There were plenty of logs, kindling and matches. The house is super warm. There were cleaning products and a great welcome pack. I would love to return again to celebrate another occasion. We could only be a party of six but the place is ideal for large parties. Would highly recommend.
