Where's nice to live near Alfreton?

Hi, I'm thinking of taking a job in Alfreton, Derbyshire, but I don't know the area at all. Would anyone be able to give me some pointers for nice places to live within about 45 minutes' drive, please? I'd prefer a quiet location, perhaps a village? I'd thought Matlock might be good, but then I read somewhere that it's a mecca for motorbikes in the summer, so that put me off a bit. Any help would be very gratefully received. Thanks xx

Relocation - as the owl says, it does bloody well rain here. All the places mentioned above I would endorse, I know them all. Crich, Belper, Cromford, Wirksworth, Ashover etc all an easy run to the M1 and nice in their own right.

Was just coming on to suggest Wirksworth but been beaten to it! V easy drive to Alfreton along pretty back roads.
