Farmer's View (formerly Hurst Farm Social Club)

You're walking into the kind of place where regulars have their spots and the landlord remembers your name. Farmer's View (still known locally as Hurst Farm Social Club to most) sits on Hazel Grove with the sort of unpretentious charm that characterises the best of Matlock's drinking culture. It's got that welcoming, no-nonsense atmosphere where you can settle in with a pint and actually chat—or just sit quietly with your thoughts. The 51 reviews stacked at 4.6 stars suggest people genuinely care about this place.
