Holmefield, a prestigious 4 yellow star awarded guest house which is given to the top guest houses representing the very best in quality of service and standards together with special good food award from the AA, is an elegant, spacious, Victorian country home located between Bakewell and Matlock and on the doorstep of the renowned Chatsworth Estate and Haddon Hall with many other popular attractions nearby.

The house is set in 3/4 of an acre of sheltered south facing gardens, enjoying uninterrupted views over the Derwent valley, which provide an enviable setting for guests to enjoy a drink and relax. A further delightful feature of the setting is the Historic Peak steam railway which can be seen from the house running between Matlock and Rowsley at weekends and most days during peak times, helping to create an atmosphere of a bygone era.
Holmefield is totally non smoking and we enforce this rule vigorously however, guests are welcome to smoke in the garden
