Beautiful, clean, well appointed room with fantastic views over countryside The hotel is situated in a lovely Derbyshire village with many local walks and places of interest nearby. Staff were helpful and efficient. Food was of a high standard if a tad overpriced

Lovely place to stay

The stay was great from the start, from the check in and being shown to our lovely room. The room itself was gorgeous and the coffee station and treats were great too. Evening meals are great. The breakfast arrangement is not buffet style and you get a menu and have to order this with tea/ coffee etc at the bar. It would have been nice to have some bowls and fruit to help yourself to but it would not put me off booking again. The cooked items for breakfast are excellent

Honestly best hotel I’ve stayed in and I will be back .

We stayed for my "pre wedding" night for my daughter wedding. Fabulous place, spotlessly clean, beautifully designed, wonderful rooms. The staff are a credit to the hotel, couldn't have been more attentive. Would absolutely recommend. In fact i took my husband to show him 2 days later. Im sure it's going to be somewhere we will re-visit.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
What a gem of a place in the stunning Peak District! James and the team looked after us so well, and their own microbrewery on site, Collyfobble, produces some gorgeous beer on draught. It's the small things that matter and when you have a personal letter of welcome in the room, the door of the breakfast room wide open and relaxing music playing and only one home-made scone in the room on welcome (knowing that it's better to go halves on an enormous scone for two, rather than waste a second one), you can tell there is real attention to detail here. Perhaps a separate, designated area for customers with dogs in the dining rooms would be worth considering.
