What Makes Matlock Golf Club Great for Events

A Behind-the-Scenes Tour Of Our Amazing Venue

When you picture hiring a venue in Derbyshire, you might think of hotels or conference centres. But tucked away on the edge of the Peak District, Matlock Golf Club offers something different. We have a welcoming space with countryside views, flexible rooms, great food and a level of service that makes every event feel special.

Whether you’re planning a family celebration, a business function or a seasonal get-together.  The setting could not be more picturesque than in the Derwent Valley, Peak District. Here’s a closer look behind the scenes at what makes the club such a popular choice for events.

A Beautiful Peak District Setting

Set high above Matlock town, the club enjoys panoramic views across the Derbyshire hills. It’s peaceful, scenic and easy to reach. Creating a natural sense of calm the moment you arrive. The large car park and level access to the clubhouse make it practical too. Especially for guests who prefer minimal travel stress.

Inside, the clubhouse strikes the right balance between comfort and flexibility. The main function room can host both small gatherings and larger groups while still feeling personal. There’s plenty of natural light during the day and a warm, relaxed atmosphere in the evening. Ideal for everything from formal dinners to birthday parties.
