Cromford, home to The Greyhound Hotel, is a fascinating village steeped in industrial history. It is renowned as the birthplace of the factory system, with the world's first successful water-powered cotton spinning mill established by Sir Richard Arkwright in 1771. Today, the village's Arkwright's Mill and the surrounding Cromford Canal and Pond are part of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site, offering visitors a unique insight into the origins of the Industrial Revolution. Cromford is also a gateway to scenic walking trails that explore the stunning landscapes of the Derbyshire Dales.
Located on the edge of the Peak District National Park, The Greyhound Hotel provides an excellent base for discovering the wider region's attractions. Guests can explore the beautiful landscapes of the park, engage in a range of outdoor activities, or visit significant historical sites like Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall. The nearby Matlock Bath, known for its charming riverside walks, cable car ride to the Heights of Abraham, and quaint shops and cafes, offers additional attractions for visitors. With its blend of history, comfort, and excellent dining, The Greyhound Hotel presents an ideal setting for exploring Cromford and the wider Peak District area.
