Matlock Bath parking 😀Matlock Bath is a beautiful village in Derbyshire with 750 residents.

In the village we have 829 car parking spaces

Station Car park, Pavilion,Temple Walk, Artists Corner and Masson Mill. Additional to this Cromford Mills has 385 spaces.

Additional to this on street parking on North and South parade limited to an hour.

We also have an hourly train service and at least 4 different bus services hourly through the village.

To be honest this is a exceptional Derbyshire Village that welcomes everyone and I am not aware of anywhere else in Derbyshire that copes with the amount of visitors as well as we do.

Happy Bank Holiday

A gentle reminder that beautiful Matlock Bath is a brilliant place to visit - even when the Illuminations season is over 👍

And right now parking charges in the village's three council car parks have been reduced to just £2.50 all day until the end of March next year.

This reminder comes during a week when access to the village from the south on the A6 is not possible due to emergency tree removal works being carried out by Derbyshire County Council in the area below Masson Mills. But the village is still fully accessible from the Matlock (north) side of the A6.

The price drop in Derbyshire Dales District Council's 241-space Station car park, 195-space Temple Walk car park and 36-space Pavilion car park is designed to attract more off-season visitors to Matlock Bath, famed for its regional attractions, riverside walks, eateries, shops and arcades.

The 149-space Artists' Corner between Matlock and Matlock Bath is included in the discounted offer.
