    • Location was good and the room was nice. The bar area was comfortable and staff were friendly and helpful in the bar. Breakfast was not great - the eggs were beautifully cooked but the presentation was awful. Eating bacon and egg on toast out of a bowl was unusual and not easy.
    • breakfast was yummy but took 40 mins to come out which left us little time to enjoy it - also would have preferred real filter coffee not instant
    • The room was very clean large and cosy. It had a large walk in shower and a large double bed which was very comfortableThe choices for breakfast was very good with cereals fruit and different cooked breakfast which were well presented and very tasty.

    Cons -

    • Breakfast
    • took a while to sort heating and room was cold on arrival
    • The first thing that i think is UNACCEPTABLE is the fact that i requested for an invoice 3 times, and I still haven't received one. It feels just "dodgy". Then, i had to pay for coffee at breakfast (breakfast was included in my reservation) because... i don't know.So, all in all, the hotel is not "bad", but i doubt I will stay there again.

    The hotel is comfy. Wifi works well, and the rooms are well-isolated

    Plenty of space. Comfortable bed. Nice furniture.

    Stayed before always normally happy with everything

    Had an air conditioning unit that was faulty and loud. Kept us both awake most of the night. Told the staff next day and even played time stamped recording. Had no further response. Disappointed.

    no fresh coffee at breakfast

    Nice and bright pub. Mix grill was amazing, just what I needed after a long hike. Big rooms, beds, TV, bathroom with both bath and shower. Kettle. Breakfast was really nice to. Great location for hiking locations such as Crich, Lea bridge, Cromford canal, Cromford and Matlock bath, and the start of the Peak district.

    Location, food , comfortable

    Must remember to book 1st floor I was on second this time quiet a climb for an oldie. No lift.

    9MartinPosted on: 1-1-2026

    A great place to stay, friendly and helpful staff and a very comfortable room, both quiet and a good size

    10AmyPosted on: 1-1-2026

    Very friendly, clean and great food. Comfortable, large room. Good cocktails

    New years entertainment could have been better. Located in a very limited area, not near anything else!

    Room was clean and comfortable. Staff were helpful.

    The food was disappointing for a pub that sells itself on food. At breakfast the tea was bag not pot and the coffee was instant which seemed surprising.

    10Sixmill1Posted on: 12-24-2025

    What a beautiful place. I was amazed to find a sofa for relaxing in my room. The staff were all really friendly and my emails were answered quickly and efficiently. As a bonus (which didn't have a benefit to me) they let the village cars park there when dropping off their kids at the local school, which is a lovely touch.

    Nothing to see here folks, keep moving.

    Good room renovations. The number for room service as per the book is not correct. There was no one in reception to take any order. I had to go down to the bar to order and they confirmed there is never anyone there to pick up.

    The mattress s need changing .. the springs are all gone such a shame bedroom was nice otherwise . It really let the room down.The breakfast delivery was poor. The waitress had a poor attitude but the orders took forever because the kitchen couldn’t cope with the two large parties and everyone down at the same time. Poor planning as the numbers would have been known in advance.

    Great value for money. Food and service was excellent . Breakfast was gorgeous. Didn’t wait long for food in the evening or at breakfast. Staff were very polite and room very clean. Bed very comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

    Size of room and value for money

    Checking in at the bar with drunken people wasn’t too pleasant

    8JamesPosted on: 11-4-2025

    Rooms were furnished to a high standard. Comfortable and spacious with all you would need for a short stay.Breakfast and evening menu were excellent as were the staff, all very accommodating.
