The popular village of Crich is well-served with eateries and amenities including The Loaf bakery, Indian restaurant, great pub, grocery store, independent shops, hair and beauty salons and the famous Crich Tramway Museum. For youngsters there is a thriving youth club, great park with football pitch and outdoor gym plus the popular primary school. A daily bus service runs to the nearby secondary schools in Wirksworth and Matlock. Within 5 minutes you can walk to countryside treks in all directions and the hills surrounding the village offer some challenging rides for cyclists. It's a fantastic place to live and from which to explore the local area and the delights of the Peak District.
