The staff were lovely , very obliging and professional. We had a very nice bedroom very clean, just too many steps for my husband, however the young man on the desk when we arrived carried up our case, which we were very grateful for . The food in the restaurant was excellent really enjoyed breakfast , the whole hotel was very clean, set in beautiful gardens

Gardens, claw-foot tub and gourmet food.

Loved this inn! Will probably return to Derbyshire just to stay here. It was a large comfortable room (very comfortable bed!) with a claw foot tub. The food was gourmet, and the setting was idyllic. I oogled over the gardens, and enjoyed the cows in the neighbouring field.

Had a brilliant weekend stay here, in a great location for visiting the shops in surrounding towns & adventuring in the beautiful Peak District. The room was a great size and the bathroom was huge! Lots of storage space for clothes too. Pretty sure we got an upgrade from what I had originally booked too! Everything was clean and the room was cleaned while we were out during the day. Breakfast was included in the booking and was very nice, with lots of choice and great service. Would definitely stay here again if I’m visiting the area again.
