Most places here are built for several people rather than a pair. Small two-person stays exist, and one of them is among the cheapest nights you will find, but they are the exception. Mid-sized lodges for four to six guests are the most common, followed by larger houses for ten. Around 59% have a log burner or fireplace, which matters if you travel in colder months. Nightly prices vary a great deal with size and features, so it helps to decide your group size and whether you want a hot tub before you compare.

Matlock sits in the Derbyshire Dales, and the lodges here lean towards groups rather than couples. The typical party size is a little under seven, and the largest place sleeps 13. If you are planning a break with family or a group of friends, there is plenty to choose from, and a hot tub comes with about two thirds of the places.
Prices cover a very wide range. The usual nightly price is on the high side for a short break, but the cheapest nights are far lower, so a small budget is not ruled out. Larger houses with a hot tub and log burner sit at the top end. Dog friendly places are common too, with around 63% accepting pets, and guests rate the stays highly at 9.2 out of 10. A week costs more outside winter than during it.
A garden is the most common feature, with about 85% of places offering one. Hot tubs follow at 67%, and log burners and high chairs are each found at around 59%. Places with a hot tub or log burner are usually dearer than those with a BBQ or a lake view, which tend to sit among the cheaper stays. Fishing is available at around a quarter of places. Lake view and a children's play area are rare, so if you want either, book early and check the details.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garden | 23 | 85% | £548 |
| Hot tub | 18 | 67% | £572 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 16 | 59% | £572 |
| High chair | 16 | 59% | £595 |
| Fishing | 7 | 26% | £564 |
| BBQ | 5 | 19% | £302 |
| Children's play area | 1 | 4% | £89 |
Cost per person does not fall steadily as groups grow. Lodges for five or six guests work out cheapest per head, and they are also the cheapest in total on a usual night. Places for three or four cost more per person, since you pay for a whole lodge with fewer people sharing. Houses for seven to nine sit in the middle. For a group of about six, the mid-sized lodges offer the best value.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 3-4 | 5 | 2 | £302 | £76 |
| Sleeps 5-6 | 7 | 3 | £232 | £39 |
| Sleeps 7-9 | 7 | 4 | £426 | £53 |
| Sleeps 10-11 | 5 | 5 | £1,003 | £100 |
Usual nightly prices stay fairly close together from November to April. January is the cheapest month, and April is the dearest as spring approaches. December costs more than November, which fits the Christmas and New Year demand. Availability is thinner in November and December, when far fewer dates are free, while January to April has noticeably more open dates. If you want a choice of weekends, the later months give you more room.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £399 | 34% |
| December 2026 | £439 | 32% |
| January 2027 | £366 | 59% |
| February 2027 | £412 | 62% |
| March 2027 | £410 | 62% |
| April 2027 | £479 | 58% |
