    Bathroom a little dated, but perfectly adequate.

    Lovely room, not very big, but cosy and tastefully furnished. The staff here are wonderful, especially the lady at check in and the young waitress at breakfast. A special touch - fresh milk available for the room. Location is perfect, only a few minutes from Chatsworth.

    I thought the car park was rather small for the accommodation. We struggled to get a parking space.

    We stayed for Sunday lunch at the restaurant. The service was impeccable. The lady that took us to our room on Sunday the 24th was most helpful.

    The weather was cold during our stay and it snowed. The bar area and dining room were cold in the evenings. On the second night we asked for the central heating in the dining room to be turned on as the radiators were stone cold. One or two diners kept their coats on! It got better once the radiators warmed up and we had an enjoyable meal. After dunner we went into the bar but the radiators in there were also cold. There was a wood burning stove but this was never lit even when it snowed. We would have stayed longer in the bar but because it just wasn’t cosy and warm we had one hot drink and went to our room.

    Rooms are comfortable, friendly staff, good food and in an excellent position for visiting Chatsworth.

    I had a problem actually getting in and out of the bath for a shower it was really deep. I found the fact that it a pub the fact after asking for 3 different glasses of red wine they were all not available and had to ask what was which I found unusual.

    After visiting Chatsworth house it was an ideal location. Extremely friendly staff. Breakfast good.

    The room itself needs improvements. I will not stay there again due to the dog friendly policy.

    About half of the furniture was French Provincial painted white and looked like it came from a charity shop and was not befitting the overall style of the hotel. Wardrobe was flimsy and was not level. The hotel is dog friendly which means that dogs could have been in your room and you can be sitting in the dining room next to a dog. I completely disagree with 'dog friendly' policies as the hotel does not seem to care about guests that have allergies to dog hair. With a dog friendly policy, you attract some people but chase others away, like me.

    Good breakfast in a nice atmosphere, good selection of food, comfortable chairs. Room was nice, but most of the furniture was white painted French Provincial and looked like it came out of a charity shop.

    We stayed on a Wednesday night. I was surprised at how noisy it was in the room in the evening. We could hear music from the pub, which made it difficult for my youngest child to drift off. All quiet by 9pm though. The water pressure was not very good in either bathroom.

    Lots of lovely walks close by. The staff were all very good indeed. The room was clean and ideal for what we wanted (family room). There were some bath ducks in the kids bathroom (separate bathrooms was an unexpected bonus) and some books in the kids room. I really liked the toiletries that I used. The breakfast was very good.

    Nothing of note

    Such a lovely hotel & pub. We stayed for 2 nights whilst exploring the Peak District. The hotel is walking distance to the grounds of chatsworth and a short drive to Bakewell. We were warmly greeted by Rachel, who let us know we had a complimentary upgrade to our room. We were travelling with our dog, who also got a little treat packet, that she was very happy with! Room was beautiful, with plenty of space and a secure courtyard that made it so much easier with the dog. Breakfast had a good choice of hot & cold options (Pancakes were amazing!), and our evening meal with lovely. (We recommend the pie!). We would definitely stay again!
