Located in the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage site, the town of Belper boasts a rich and illustrious history that dates back to the 13th century, when it was known as Beaurepaire (beautiful retreat). There are many exciting places to visit in this town now, such as the North Mill, Long Row, and the River Gardens. The town has an annual Arts festival in May, as well as seasonal food festivals in the winter and summer, and a monthly Farmers Market, all of which contribute to the thriving local music and arts scene. Wirksworth, a nearby mediaeval village, hosts an annual Art and Architecture tour and Arts Festival in September. Matlock, a popular Peak District town, and its neighbour, Matlock Bath, are located in the picturesque, wooded gorge of the River Derwent and are only 10 miles distant. Shops, taverns, and restaurants abound in the Matlocks, and there are many other fun things to do there as well. The cable car rides up to the Heights of Abraham is fun for the whole family, and the view down the canyon is spectacular. The High Peak Cycle Trail begins just south of town, and both Bakewell and Chatsworth House are well worth a visit to the north. Belper, a town that has won numerous awards, is a fantastic home base for seeing all that Derbyshire has to offer.
