Who Are We
New Bath Hotel & Spa is a beautiful 54-bedroom hotel located in the heart of Matlock Bath, within the scenic Peak District National Park.
The hotel stands as a testament to the area’s rich history, with origins tracing back to 1745, when it began as a bathing establishment centred around a natural spring that still flows today.
The hotel features a historic outdoor swimming pool, known as the New Bath Hotel Lido, established in 1934. This unique lido is supplied by mineral-rich spring water from the nearby mountainside, ensuring a natural and chemical-free swimming experience.
