The Cure at Derby is an accommodation offering in Derby designed specifically for the MTB market. The property caters for everything you need when hitting the world famous Blue Derby trails.

Formerly the towns Doctors surgery and residence the property is divided into two parts. “The Surgery” a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom flat that sleeps six. “The Doctors residence” a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom spacious house with large deck bar sleep ten people. Housing 18 people total. Rent one or both

The space
Formerly the towns Doctors surgery and residence since it was built in the 1950s it’s name pays homage to both the buildings heritage and is a reference to what we hope to provide to you. A CURE.

A Cure from your busy life, a Cure from the rat race. A cure to your MTB needs.

The Surgery consists of two bedrooms, one with two sets of king single bunks (sleeps 4) and the other has two long single beds that zip together to become a king bed on request (let us know when you book) so is perfect for either two singles or a couple. There is a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, oven, cooktop, microwave, toaster, kettle, pod coffee machine and quality cookware. Outside you will find a 4 burner gas BBQ and 8 person dining table undercover located next to the private beer garden.

Hotel quality bed linen will keep you toasty warm or simply use the reverse cycle air conditioner to control your climate. You can enjoy unlimited instant gas hot water and the two bathrooms will ensure everyone gets through the shower quickly after a day on the trails so you can get straight to telling Tall tales in The Cure beer garden or a couple of hundred metres down the road at the Dorset Pub.

There is an additional third toilet and seperate laundry room provided outside with large washing machine and dryer.

Most importantly there is a secure shed to store and maintain your bikes, complete with bike stand for easy maintenance and pool table and couch just to kick back.

Please note. The kitchen dining area is the living area in this apartment so if you have a group of 6 it can feel a little confined so we suggest you look at booking the Doctors Residence next door which has plenty of lounge room space. Or if it is summer you can be in our large beer garden and you are on the trails a lot so you may not be concerned.

There is plenty of off street parking.

Guest access
The entire ‘Surgery flat’ is available for guest use. The ‘ Doctors Residence’ next door may be rented by another group. A fence separates the back yards for privacy and each residence has its own seperate secure bike shed. The laundry is a shared space. If you would like exclusive use of the property please refer to our listing for 16 people. ‘The Cure-entire property’
The rear of the property contains the Nurses Quarters Cabins.

Other things to note
Shuttles.
If you’re coming to ride it’s advisable to book your shuttles early with Vertigo or Mad MTB as seats are limited and can book out in peak season.

Groceries.
There is a small IGA supermarket in Branxholm which is a 5 minute drive away. Otherwise the nearest large supermarket is Woolworths in Scottsdale which you pass on your way into town a half hour drive from Derby. So if you want to do a shop it’s a good idea to do it on the way in. There is a cracking little butcher in Ringarooma run by Josh. That’s a nice little detour on the way between Scottsdale and Derby where you can go and pick up some of our famous local Scottsdale Pork (try the honey mustard marinade) and see some very cool wood carvings along the way at Ledgerwood.
