This beautifully appointed property is situated on the edge of Ogston Reservoir in Derbyshire and commands breathtaking views over the water from many of the windows. There are spectacular walks right from the door and a short drive will take you to any one of the market towns of Ashbourne, Matlock or Bakewell(famed for its puddings!). This area is also home to some of the country’s most famous stately homes including Chatsworth House Haddon Hall and Hardwick Hall. Oldfield House has been sympathetically restored and retains a wealth of original features but at the same time benefits from state-of-the-art technology to ensure your stay is as comfortable as possible; ideal for that special family get-together, wedding anniversary, birthday celebration or just a simple holiday with friends.

A fantastic location for our weekend celebrations. Having raised our family in Matlock and lived there for almost 49 years, it was a real pleasure to return and stay in the grand house.

A delightful old house, exceptional presentation, warm and cosy, lots of rooms for family birthday celebrations and fun. A wonderful view of the reservoir on two cold bright mornings and a perfect circular walk for all - about 4+ miles.

Thanks for the celebratory fizz!

As other ms have said, the photos don’t do the house justice, it is stunning and incredibly well furnished. The location too is beautiful and Julie is an excellent host. We would definitely stay here again

Booked the property for a 40th birthday retreat with extended family. Amazing house and area, everyone loved it and some really thoughtful touches from the host, Julie, all added up to an amazing few days. Would love to repeat the experience in the future.

Beautiful property and Julie was very welcoming. A shame the reservoir isn’t accessible for walking!

We stayed for a family get together for the weekend and had a lovely break. The house was fully equipped for all our needs in bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen. We were lucky to have the sun and made good use of the patios and orangery - the views from the house were glorious over to the Reservoir. Would certainly recommend. Just wished we had longer there. !

We enjoyed a very relaxing weekend away in this beautiful house - there was plenty of room for 12 friends and a toddler, everything was as described, and the views over the reservoir from the conservatory (even on a wet weekend!) were stunning. The owner was reliable and easy to contact, and we're looking forward to heading back with the family soon.

We stayed here for a family reunion and loved it.
The property was spotless, the kitchen was well equipped, the bedrooms were big, beds comfortable, and the views were gorgeous overlooking the reservoir. The garden was a great space for the kids to kick a ball around.
The bathrooms were also large with fab bath tubs for a relaxing soak! Oh and Netflix available.
Would highly recommend. Thank you Julie for a wonderful stay!

We had an excellent time celebrating 3 birthdays in 1 weekend with extended family. The kids loved having a secret staircase and the layout of the rooms was perfect; including the den. Plenty of bathrooms and best of all, loads of crockery and glasses for every occasion. Brilliant.

Lovely house that provided a great place for 10 old friends to catch up in. The interior is done up to a high standard and the bedrooms are all spacious so no arguments over who got what. Julie was quick to respond and made the booking process easy. Nice countryside views but with easy access to shops nearby.

Oldfield house is a fantastic place to say. Staying as a group of 13 including 2 children, the facilities are exactly what are needed for a large party. From the numerous bathrooms to the comfy beds, the cooking and food preparation facilities are second to none and as we had fantastic weather during our stay we were able to make full use of the BBQ whilst lounging on the terrace. The view over the reservoir was an added bonus. Julie was a very welcoming host and we would hope to visit Oldfield house again for future family trips. I would thoroughly recommend the property.
