Aptly nicknamed 'the Gem of the Peaks', Wirksworth is an historic market town dating back to Saxon times. The property is situated on the most desirable street in the town, North End. As one of the oldest streets in Derbyshire, the street is entirely listed, as a result it is largely popular with both tourists and locals. All the Wirksworth’s amenities are within a two minute walk. Wirksworth is full of the charms as a Derbyshire Peak District town, but it also offers a lot more. It has fantastic country pubs, bakeries, delis, artisan food/drink shops, restaurants, wine bars, art galleries and there is a fabulous independent cinema on North End. Both the cinema and a local pub has featured in the Guardian Newspaper as some of the best places to visit in the Peak District. Art/Music/Culture/Food and Drink, is ingrained within the culture of this ‘Bohemian’ small town. Each year it attracts tourists and prestigious Artists and Architects from all over the world, to take part in it's Annual Arts festival.  The Tenth House would be perfect for a family, looking for a holiday home in the country and all that the Peak District has to offer, but also close to towns and cities.
