Some of the reviews left by our guests.
Visited for a family milestone birthday. The house was perfectly set up for this and everyone (ages 3 to 70) had a great stay.
The views from the back are absolutely stunning, the garden is secure for children and dogs.
You can easily walk up into the woods and down to a local pub. A small playground is also close by.
The house is well kept and very clean. We found everything we needed for the weekend around the house, but if we hadn’t I have no doubt that someone would have been able to help us as the communication was very easy with Andrew.
It has a lovely, cosy, homely feeling despite being a large property and we would definitely consider booking this house again for future large family gatherings.

September 2023We had a fabulous weekend at Highfields, perfect for multi generational family, plenty of space inside and something to entertain everyone.
All 14 of us could sit round the dining table and there were plenty of plates, cutlery, glasses etc for all. Beautiful views from back of house and great barbecue area. Really happy with our stay.

September 2023One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited in my life. We had the small wedding of our dreams and it was perfect inside and out, with breathtaking views, stunning layout and such a warm atmosphere, I couldn’t imagine our summer wedding being anywhere else!
Andrew was an absolutely wonderful host, the neighbours were so friendly and welcoming and the space was perfect. I hope in the future we can return for out anniversary

June 2023If you are looking to stay in Matlock look no further!! Highfield house is absolutely perfect and the views are amazing! 15 of us stayed in February and loved every second, the house is very well equipped there was even a food hamper with some essentials waiting for us in the kitchen.
The communication with the owners was great too. I would definitely recommend this property for a large group 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

March 2023Probably the best of our many AirBnB experiences. Spacious, comfortable and well-equipped. From 2-year old to 72-year old – everyone enjoyed their stay. A really good property and perfect communication from the owner.

October 2023We had a lovely stay in Matlock as a family of 15, age range 10-78.
The house had everything we could possibly need and the location was perfect for us, bring close to the town centre but also in a private quiet location.
Andrew was the perfect host.

August 2023Andrew was a fantastically responsive and proactive host (despite being on holiday himself!).
The house is high up, overlooking Matlock and the view is stunning. Perfect for a family celebration with both indoor and outdoor eating options and excellent flexible sleeping choices for more than 16 of us (toddler and baby too!).
Games, pool table, BBQ and a hot tub all added to the superb experience.
We had a great wknd Andrew. Thank you. We truly hope to visit Highfield House again.

August 2023All 17 of us from 8 to 80 had such a good, bonding time. The house is beautiful and catered so well for different ages.
Very much enjoyed cooking in the kitchen particularly and using the hot tub. Beds can be arranged double or single which suits different ages and genders.
The weather was mixed so although we didn’t get in walks in our two full days there, the drive to it was lovely.
So as a family we definitely have it on our radar to return.
Andrew was pleasantly easy to communicate with, although we didn’t have any problems really.
So if you’re looking for a large family house near the middle of the country with beautiful views, I can highly recommend Highfield House.

April 2023As five families with young children, Highfield House was perfect for our needs.
Clean, comfortable and spacious, with good kitchen facilities and wonderful views.
The large dining room was fab for our big Thanksgiving meal and the snooker table was a bonus.
Andrew is a great host – brilliant at communicating and was available if we needed anything. Can’t wait to stay again.

November 2023Stayed at Highfield for a long weekend with family. The house was absolutely gorgeous, spotless and everything was thought of in terms of what was included with the property (we even found a sewing kit to sew up a pokemon toy!) Plus a lovely basket of welcome goodies and useful extras in the food cupboard.
We rented the hot tub which was great and the view of and from the garden was stunning. Loved the inclusion of the piano, pool table and the outside dining area too – an excellent location for a lovely family getaway.
Andrew was a great host, great with communication and answering any queries, and you can tell he really cares about the property and those who stay there.

April 2023We were a party of sixteen, eight adults and eight children whose ages ranged from three months to fifteen years old. The house and magnificent gardens were spectacular.
Andrew was also a very hands on host who communicated from the beginning until we left. He even arranged to have a soft toy posted back to a four year old in our party.
Everyone in our party said they would be happy to return again. We had a brilliant stay. Thank you Andrew.

April 2023Just returning from a long weekend with family at this warm, comfortable, super spacious property.
We liked that no one had to compromise as all the bedrooms were fantastic. Great location to explore the area.
We were lucky with the weather but there’s so much in the house to entertain you that you don’t have to leave if you don’t want to!
Plenty books and board games along with the pool table and gaming room. The kitchen was everything you could possibly need. We opted for the hot tub too which we made use of.
We would happily go back and recommend.
