Explorers Retreat Matlock Bath was a unique and fun experience! As a solo traveler, I loved the quirky cabins and the adventurous atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing great tips on local activities. The cabin was clean and cozy, perfect for a solo retreat. The location was stunning, with easy access to beautiful walks and the charming town of Matlock Bath. While the facilities were basic, the overall experience was fantastic. It's a great choice for anyone seeking a bit of adventure and a taste of nature.

The accommodation was fantastic, staff were really friendly and the price was really good. Staff were always on hand to help day and night and the atmosphere was very relaxed. It was nice to have a drink in the small bar and the kids appreciated the mini games room and gift shop. We went on the coldest day of the year so was a little bit of a shame the room had one storage heater that was controlled centrally by WiFi as in the morning we were cold but as soon as the staff were informed they instantly turned the heating back on for us. We will certainly go back in the summer months and stay again. Thanks for a memorable stay.

The room was physically good looking, however the vibrations from the doors closing throughout the willows were so aggressive they shook what sounded like radiators and radiator pipes in the rooms (this was caused by the door arms that closes doors automatically, i know they are essential but this is the.first time ive had the experience of a whole building heating system shake from them). Oh and the stale smell from.the bathroom made the whe room stink damp and stale.

Our princess themed room was spacious and clean. We had no breakfast so cannot comment on this. Staff were very helpful explaining how the boiler and heating worked.

Breakfast was unavailable although I was under the impression from the information given beforehand that a continental breakfast was available. Likewise, unless mistaken, I had been led to believe that there was daily housekeeping but this did not take place. The wi-fi worked well but a couple of channels didn't work for the latter part of the stay from the minimum choice of television stations provided. However, it was a good stay all in all: the room was clean and the outlook was very scenic - I basically had a pleasant , enjoyable time there. It was reasonably convenient of access to the local amenities and facilities in Matlock Bath although it was a bit of a haul up and down the hill to the hotel! The staff was pleasant. I did feel slightly cold in the room occasionally.
