A great location...
While Ripley still provides the shopping and other facilities you would expect in any modern town, it now serves as a gateway to some of the most attractive and dramatic scenery in the country - the 542 square miles of the Derbyshire Dales and, in particular, the magnificent Peak District National Park.
In beautiful countryside...
The stepping stones of Dovedale, the heights of Kinderscout, the more easily accessible but equally breathtaking beauty of Monsal Dale: they are easily reached and waiting to be explored.
Ripley, which is right at the heart of the Amber Valley, has maintained and developed its leisure and recreational attractions. The Tramway Museum, the Midland Railway Centre and the Denby Visitor Centre are all very popular attractions and at the Denby Visitor Centre you can enjoy the history behind this world-famous pottery name and have a go at decorating a plate for yourself.
A little further out in the Dales are such notable and attractive towns as Bakewell, famous for its pudding (not a tart). Matlock and Matlock Spa, with its Victorian grandeur built on its popularity as somewhere to "take the water" still very much in evidence.
Belper, with its unique River Gardens, situated at the widest and most tranquil point of the River Derwent, home to all manner of birds including swans, herons, geese and a variety of ducks and moorhens.
