The big holiday home in the heart of it all
With its beautiful en suite bedrooms and striking Victorian architecture, 5* Portland House is an unmistakable landmark in the famous tourist town of Matlock Bath in the picturesque Peak District, Derbyshire. A magnificent pink stone building, this ultimate 5* holiday house has a history dating back to 1870, when the gentry gathered their friends and families from far and wide to experience the most glamourous get togethers in the wonderful World Heritage Site of the Derwent Valley.
Close to 185 tourist attractions, walking trails and boating on the river, 5* Portland House is also only a 2 minute walk away from Peak District pubs, tempting tourist shops and award-winning eateries so there’s something here to entertain everyone.
Within 1 hour of Manchester, Nottingham and Sheffield or 2 hours from London and only 10 minutes from the Matlock Bath train station, 5* Portland House is perfectly placed for group get togethers and weekend getaways.
