Welcome

This beautiful 19th Century former 'Drovers Inn' and 'working farm' now finds itself a cosy, traditional country inn.

Built in 1866 the 'Duke' has all the character and charm of a traditional country inn, built in Derbyshire limestone with slate roofs, roaring log fires and extensive gardens, our pub is well worth a visit.

Our inn has recently been redecorated in a traditional country style that provides a warm and comfortable atmosphere for both drinkers and dinners alike.

The extensive floral gardens offer comfortable seating areas, as well as a fully enclosed heated patio area overlooking 'Riber Castle and the Derwent Valley'.

Accommodation is available in the 'Stables'. Please see the Accommodation page for more details. We provide: Good Food, Good Beers, Fine Wines, Good Company and much, much more.     

We are situated in Matlock, Derbyshire - in the heart of the beautiful Peak District. We are the perfect base for you to explore this gorgeous part of England - whether you are enjoy walking or rock climbing we will make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Ideally located for:
