Hotel and staff were good, where we stayed though was not. We booked through you assuming we were staying at the hotel, wrong, they put us across the main busy junction, through the car park separate from the hotel, in a converted shed. The old sash window in the bedroom couldn’t shut properly so the noice from the main rd just a few feet away was dreadful. We had virtually no sleep at all. We go away monthly to different hotels and everyone has been great, we’ll not through you anymore. The staff were informed but nothing came from it. We were shattered driving home. Be careful if you book there and make sure you stay in the hotel, not across the rd.

Lovely hotel, great service and staff.

The staff were very helpful and attentive which made it a pleasant stay. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant and the breakfast was good so no issues with the food. It was my birthday so i had my main and dessert for free too as they have a birthday offer. The hotel itself has character and charm, we upgraded to a superior double on the top floor, there are no lifts but we were made aware of that when booking. The room itself was clean and had some nice touches, including a welcome note from housekeeping. The room was at the back of the hotel so we could hear the kitchens and it had no view, but thats just the layout of the building. The only issue was the heat: the bathroom towel rail was very hot and made it too hot to leave the door shut. It would have burned you if you put your hand on it so is a safety issue. We were not able to rurn it off either.The radiators on the landings were also on full blast even though we had good sunny weather. Otherwise it was a good hotel and we would return.

The hotel was very good and we’d recommend it. The location was second to none, giving you the option of exploring Bakewell and the Monsal Trail but also having a convenient access to both Chatsworth, Hadden Hall

Haven't got a problem with the room at all. But restaurant staff and service was not at an exceptable level. At breakfast, orders were wrote down but brought out wrong. Toast was black underneath and eggs were cold! Asked for fried got poached! How hard can it be. Young unexperienced girls, no one in charge. Had a dinner for 16, messed up orders, even though we had pre ordered. Didnt know beef from lamb! Had a bottle of fizzy wine, to which she brought and left on table for us to open ourselves! No exceptable!

Great hotel. Really enjoyed our stay and would use again. The room we had overlooked the main road which was pretty noisy up until 8pm, and then again from 6am. Breakfast was good, but not outstanding.
