Holbrook is a small village in the borough of Amber Valley, in Derbyshire, England. It lies a few miles north of Derby and close to Belper, sitting on the southern fringe of the Peak District and within easy reach of the River Derwent and the Derwent Valley Mills industrial-heritage area.
Historically an agricultural settlement, Holbrook today is largely residential and popular with commuters to Derby and Nottingham, while still offering village amenities such as a church, pub and community groups. The village retains attractive stone cottages and rural lanes, and its proximity to countryside and historic mill towns makes it appealing for walkers, cyclists and anyone interested in Derbyshire’s industrial and rural heritage.
