This beautiful rural town nestled alongside the river Derwent, is listed as a Unesco world heritage site. Once a thriving cotten and textile mills region on the outskirts of Derby, is well know for J.W. Thornton moving here from Sheffield as a chocolate maker, before moving production to Swanwick.There are still manufacturing business’s and industry in the region, some of which generates airport transfers Belper for Chauffeurs Belper VIP.

This region is also well sought after for a quiet residential area surrounded by stunning countryside, perfect for those executive travel clients from Derby city centre. Chauffeur services Belper as well as airport transfers remains very popular for professionals and corporate clients looking for comfort and that professional service not always found within the local taxis Belper.

King street provides the main shopping area of Belper, with a good mix of retail units, shops and markets.
The Lion Hotel has a long history in the town dating back to acient times as a coaching Inn, where horse & carriages rested on route to parts of the UK. We have fortunately moved on, and now Mercedes Benz saloons and MPV’s are our preferred source of travel, and this goes down very well with clients out of Belper using Derby Chauffeurs VIP.

Another great feature to the town was the River Gardens, given by George Herbert Strutt in 1906, an Edwardian water garden by the Derwent which still features band concerts on alternate summer Sundays.
These beautiful places are frequently sought out by wedding couples as photo feature points for their wedding photos. Derby Chauffeurs VIP & Minibuses find ourselves here very often in both wedding cars and wedding minibuses. Even weddings in Derby city come out to these gardens.

The importance of the Belper mills and their historic industrial neighbours at Cromford, Darley Abbey and Derby was reflected by the World Heritage Site status given to the Derwent Valley Mills in December 2001.
