Fryers Cottage is a hidden gem right in the heart of Wirksworth, a favourite place of ours. We have visited many times now and this gorgeous cottage is definitely a place we would love to stay in again. Clean, comfortable and cosy, the cottage was well equipped and had lots of character, with the added benefit of being within easy walking distance of the town. It's an ideal place to explore the fabulous Peak District from.

We had a lovely long weekend here. The cottage is beautifully appointed and super cosy. Wirksworth and the surrounding countryside was just what we needed for a few days. Will be back!

My wife and I enjoyed Ben's hospitality. It was clean, well-furnished and warm, so we were able to relax for a whole week there. The centre of Wirksworth is lovely! Would strongly recommend staying here.

A really cute little cottage close to the centre of town. Good location for exploring the area. Nice walk up to the quarry at the top of the hill. Good selection of extras to make you feel welcome tea, coffee etc.

Lovely little cottage right in the centre of Wirksworth. We were two couples and two small dogs, and found we had enough space for two nights. The property is finished to a very high standard and is spotlessly clean with beautiful decor. Ben was very communicative and we would highly recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful weekend at Fryers Cottage! It felt like a home from home. Ben went out of his way to ensure that our weekend was perfect! Putting the fire on in the evenings was an absolute joy with winter fast approaching. Within close proximity to the Peak District, Fryer’s Cottage is the place to stay for a cosy geta-away.

We had SUCH a beautiful time staying at Fryers Cottage. The location is wonderful, being so close to the centre of Wirksworth you have easy walking access to lovely pubs and restaurants as well as a super cute mini cinema! We thoroughly enjoyed all the stunning walks around Wirksworth and through the peaks. The cottage was equipped with everything we could have wanted. The wood fired stove in the sitting room was also the cherry on top of the cake, it made for very cosy and autumnal evenings. We will absolutely be coming back here again!

What a perfect little cottage! The interior is beautifully done, with everything we needed for a good break. We loved our stay in this quiet corner of Wirksworth, with everything so handy to walk to. Black Rocks is in walking distance and Cromford Mills just a few minutes drive, the cottage is a brilliant base to explore the Matlock area. We'll be back!
