    The bed was very small for a double and the mattress very uncomfortable. The evening meal was rather pricey and the quality not as would have been expected for the price.

    The staff were first class in every respect. They were extremely friendly and helpful. The atmosphere within the pub was great, warm and friendly with a good buzz. The breakfast was great too.

    King room should be described as a large double it’s not as grand as the name suggests. Bar menu should also be available in the restaurant. they ran out of stuff in the restaurants

    close to Chatsworth. reasonable restaurant.

    Rachel front house reception was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast staff all very friendly and welcoming. Restaurant is comfortable and nice choice on menu. Weather was perfect for walking to Chatsworth and surrounding countryside, all so beautiful. Baslow is small but very pretty. Visit Chicken shed for lovely homeware gifts.

    Unfortunately during the night we kept getting woken up by the pipes making awful noises, it was really quite loud. The room was hot. Don't these point put you off, we still had a lovely time at the Devonshire but we had to mention it.

    We stayed for 2 nights to celebrate our wedding anniversary with the kids, the room was lovely. the staff were brilliant, it was really clean and pleasant. Unfortunately our daughter wasn't very well when we arrived so we spent Most of our stay in the room, but the staff cared for us really well and even made her some toast in the afternoon (during a busy lunch service). we are really grateful, nothing was too much trouble. The staff gave us a bottle of Prosecco and some beer as a welcome gift because they knew we were celebrating, it was a really lovely touch! Thank you!!!! The Devonshire is in a great location. The food was amazing too.

    On arrival we were warmly welcomed and shown to our room (room 4) by Amy, which set the tone, as all the staff we subsequently met were polite, helpful and very friendly. The room was a small double, as advertised, (all that was available as we booked at short notice), so I now have a few bruises from catching the corner of the bed walking round to my side. However, it was adequate with the space used well and contained everything we needed. The room was well decorated and spotless, and the drinks tray contained tea and coffee, with bone china cups and saucers and a cafetiere. Two bottles of local beer were a lovely addition, which may have been because it was New Year's Eve. The bathroom was clean, with a very good, powerful shower over the bath and the towels were soft and fluffy. Breakfast was delicious - my husband had the full English and I had Eggs Royale. The additional self service breakfast buffet was basic but fine, with a choice of cereals, plain yoghurt and a toaster with a basket of brown and white bread, jam and honey. It would have been good to have also had some crumpets and fresh fruit, but that's just a minor niggle. It was a wonderful stay and we will definitely stay again. If we were staying for longer than one night we would need a bigger room as storing luggage would be an issue in the small double. As lovely as the Devonshire Arms is, the very best thing about it is the staff, who are an absolute credit to the business.

    Not a lot really.

    Really great place to stay. Staff were welcoming, room was very comfortable, made even better by the complimentary beers. We ate in the restaurant and the food was very good. Room was very quiet and bed very comfortable. The Devonshire Arms is a short walk from Chatsworth House and close to Bakewell. I would recommend staying here.

    lovely hotel and restaurant (excellent evening meal and good choice of wine by the glass) friendly and efficient staff, very nice cooked to order breakfast. we booked for a family with adjoining room with bunk beds. complimentary water coffee and even a couple of bottles of the local ale in our room.

    The mattress and pillows were too hard for us. The bed also had a footboard which is a nightmare for my partner at 6’3” and made for an uncomfortable night for him. At least without a footboard he can dangle his feet more comfortably off the end of the bed. In this instance he had to carefully poke them through the bars! A blackout blind on the front facing window would be good too as the current curtain lets in a lot of light.

    Friendly, welcoming and helpful staff. We didn’t eat dinner here but the breakfast was fab!
