The Cavendish never fails to delight! The view is breathtaking and a short walk across that beautiful view and you are at Chatsworth House, couldn't be easier. Also the Chatsworth Farm Shop only a 5 minute drive away, such lovely things to buy and access to all. The building/place has character (clearly once and old Coaching Inn), rooms are comfortable and well appointed. Food is delicious, breakfast to die for, service excellent. Reception and front of house staff always eager to help and please, indeed having enquired about a particular painting hanging opposite reception, I was swiftly provided with details of the painting and the artists website. Lovely thoughtful touches, loved staying here, thoroughly recommend it.

Nothing frankly

Breakfast, one of the best hotel breakfasts I have ever had! ( even GF) and I spend around 40 to 50 nights a year in hotels. I had a basic ground floor room but it was excellent.

Unfortunately, and it probably was a bad choice, I ordered the braised beef which I was assured could come gluten free. It arrived looking like fatty, grey meat reminiscent of school dinners. I didn't even touch it but the serving staff did not notice this until they were clearing the main courses. At that point they offered to provide an alternative but as my friend had finished her main it wasn't appropriate timing wise. I ordered a pudding and left it at that. When checking out I had to insist that the main was removed from my bill. I would have hoped and expected that to have happened without comment.

Gorgeous, comfortable, beautifully decorated hotel. Our room was the furthest from reception on the edge of the ground floor, extremely quiet. Lovely bed, huge and comfortable. Bathroom perfect with none of the niggles we always have with hotel bathrooms. Proper kettle, generous quantities of tea bags etc, fresh milk in the mini fridge! These touches are invaluable. Everything worked. The staff are all extremely friendly and chatty. Whoever runs this place has excellent ethic going and guests really benefit from this.

We enjoyed our meal in the Garden Room, but my husband was quite sad that his starter of Eel consisted of one small mouthful. Inadequate portion. Otherwise the meal was good, service outstanding.

Lovely breakfast overlooking the grounds

Quality and luxury experience Good staff and good professional standards. Room was great, lovely views over the Chatsworth estate Peaceful and serene. Good breakfast selection included Anniversary meal tastefully celebrated. Not rushed at meals Good quality food locally sourced Access to Chatsworth estate without driving. Farm Shop nice walk. Good facilities. Helpful folder

Heating in room hard to control. Paintings in room but that's personal choice.

We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay at this welcoming hotel, which offers stunning views of the Derbyshire countryside. We were very pleased with our excellent, quiet room—thank you for the upgrade! —as well as the tasteful interior decor, the delicious dinner on the terrace, the superb cooked breakfast, and the consistently professional service. We’d love to return one day for another memorable visit—and hopefully walk all the way to Chatsworth...

The food and hotel lived upto expectation. We have stayed many times over the years and have always been delighted with the care and attention to detail delivered by the staff and facilities. Even down to the mural in the Gents of the graffiti that used to be on the walls :) Love the place and enjoyed our stay.

Our breakfast was spoilt by 2 men having a pissing contest about their cars with no regard to anyone else in the gallery. It really was upsetting to listen to but it was clearly their aim to impress everyone else in the room. A shame :(

Without a shadow of doubt, one of the finest hotels we have ever stayed in. Every single member of staff were so friendly, helpful and keen for us to enjoy our one night stay. Room 10, the splendid suite was so comfortable with a superb view to wake up to. Our evening meal in the restaurant was delicious ( we had the beef wellington ) and the breakfast was superb.

when we arrived ( early evening ) we struggled to find a space in the car park. Nothing at all to dislike about the hotel.

Excellent location for Chatsworth. Lovely hotel but some things need to be done to pull their socks up a bit, see below. Great and super staff. Tasty food but meagre portions. Car park rather slippery in cold weather.

Speed of service in restaurant at evening meal was slow and the staff do not seem to communicate with each other. Food portions really meagre but good quality. Breakfast was very slow and had exhausted the coffee before any food arrived (35 minute wait). Bed was uncomfortable, pillows of poor quality. Suggest feather pillows as options and better beds (go to a Premier Inn for an example). Loo flush was inconsistent. Carpets getting threadbare on way to room. For the price expected much better.

Location was perfect, good parking,room was beautifully furnished with lovely views from the windows. Very peaceful. Bar and Garden Room were gorgeous.

Vegetarian menu in Gallery restaurant was limited, but the early bird in the Garden room was excellent. The room was not well ventilated and windows wouldn't open. Breakfast was not included in the price, which was quite expensive for room only.
