Holmesfield is a rural village and civil parish in North East Derbyshire, Derbyshire, sitting on the western fringe of the Peak District. It occupies gentle upland countryside of mixed pasture and moorland, with stone-built houses and lanes that attract walkers and riders from nearby towns and the surrounding moors, offering wide views towards Sheffield and Chesterfield.
Locally the economy remains rooted in farming alongside a significant number of people who commute to the neighbouring urban centres; the village keeps a strong community feel with a parish church, village hall and traditional pub, and a history visible in older stone buildings, former agricultural sites and routes across the hills that hint at its rural and historic character.
