  • "The apartment was fantastic, in great surroundings, comfortable and well equipped."

    This was our first visit to the Peak District and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay. Hopefully we will make a return trip and wouldn't stay anywhere else other than Wye Mill. A credit to the owners.

    Thank you for your very kind remarks Carol. It would be lovely to welcome you back. Property Owner

  • "Accommodation was really clean, spacious and very well equipped, especially the kitchen."

    Owner provided lots of helpful info. Great location: we spent two days walking on the Monsal Trail, right next to the accommodation. Loads of things to do locally: Chatsworth House is spectacular, Buxton is interesting, and we like Bakewell. Looking forward to returning in the Spring.

About the location

CRESSBROOK

Tideswell 3 miles; Bakewell 4 miles.

Cressbrook is located on the River Wye and its focal point is the wonderful mill, which was built in 1779 by the famous Richard Arkwright. The surrounding area has some of the prettiest scenery in the Peak District. Follow the footpath upstream of Cressbrook Mill to Water-cum-Jolly, a beautiful river gorge with fine limestone cliffs, which is superb for rock climbers, birdwatchers and walkers. North of the mill lies the lane to Ravensdale, which is adjacent to Cressbrook Dale, a fine gorge-like limestone dale with numerous crags and the remains of several lead mines. Cressbrook Dale is a National Nature Reserve renowned for its range of rare flowers. South of the mill you pass through the lovely Upper Dale and Nether Dale leading up to the famous landmark of Monsal Head, which is on the Monsal Trail. This provides a wonderful “behind the scenes” view of this beautiful part of Derbyshire. Close by is the lovely little village of Litton, which has a village green outside the wonderful food-serving pub, The Red Lion, and a well-stocked village shop. Visit nearby Tideswell in the heart of the Peak District National Park with its fine church dedicated to St John the Baptist, known as "The Cathedral of the Peak", country inns, local eateries, wells dressing and carnival wakes. There is excellent walking with rugged peaks to the north and gentle hills and dales to the south, while Mam Tor and Castleton are only a few miles away with the popular Spa town of Buxton nearby.
