Experience Derbyshire from the heart of the village at Eight The Green, a cosy self-catering cottage for two in the picturesque village of Middleton by Wirksworth. Overlooking the village green and surrounded by rolling hills, this beautifully refurbished 200-year-old stone cottage is the perfect base for exploring Matlock, Cromford and the wider Peak District. With scenic walking and cycling routes from the doorstep, it’s ideal for a summer adventure or a snug winter escape — a welcoming retreat all year round.

Eight The Green sits at the foot of Middleton Moor, known for its panoramic views and rich wildlife. A short walk across the moor leads to Middleton Top Countryside Centre and the High Peak Trail, where you can hire bikes and explore the White Peak and Derwent Valley. After a day of discovery, head back to the cottage to unwind by the wood burner or freshen up, then stroll to one of the village pubs for a good meal and a drink, while deciding where to explore next in the Derbyshire Dales.
