Outside, you will find a sheltered courtyard with handy secure bike storage. Wirksworth is a charming and busy little town and is one of the oldest in this part of the Peak District. Here you can find an award-winning restaurant, fine real ale pubs, individual shops and a bustling monthly market. There are plenty of scenic walks and cycling trails from the doorstep and Carsington Water is well worth a visit with its numerous activities, including watersports.
