The apartment was a lovely size and most unexpected as I was only expecting a hotel room. The apartment has a living area, kitchen area, bathroom, and bedroom. Some furniture fixtures and fittings people will think a little dated, but I found them to be very comfy, especially the reclining chair and the bed. The full English breakfast was good, the selection for the continental was very good and both tastes great. Staff were polite and friendly and I thought it was good value for money. I would definitely come back and stay here

The only criticism I have is i was expecting to pay the balance on arrival, but I found it had been taken a couple of days before I arrived. As I've mentioned, some will find the furniture, fixtures, and fittings a little dated. Note, there is no breakfast available on Sunday morning, not sure if that was due to the time of year I stayed (End of June) Note 2, some will find the road a little noisy, personally it didn't bother me

From arrival we were greeted by Ross who couldn't do more to help us. We were shown to our lovely spacious room which was clean and tidy and everything we needed. Ross then helped my husband with our bags so I could look after our toddler. There is a lovely spacious dining room which is again clean and well presented. There is a snug lounge with sofas and chairs which we didn't use but again is a welcoming area to relax in. Ross was able to give us suggestions of places to eat which were fabulous and only a short drive away. The hotel is close to lots of trails we enjoyed some stunning walks and hired bikes and completed the Monsal trail and a short drive from Bakewell and Ashbourne. The hotel is child friendly and were excellent with our busy two year old.

What's not to like really. The hotel is as pictured and listed. Good value for money.

Fantastic hotel, very nicely decorated rooms and lovely staff. Great value for money for the stay but also for breakfast that we booked separately. Perfect location, easy to reach and near some fabulous spots to explore - we took a 10mins drive to Dovedale Stepping Stones in the evening - perfect time as it was getting empty and we really enjoyed the walk in the valley. I would recommend the hotel to anyone.

Some noise from the road - we had a road-facing room, so you could hear the cars and also the neighbours from the room above us quite loudly, but nothing some ear plugs can't fix. And we had a great sleep anyway as the bed was super comfy.

The apartment was warm and cosy, bed comfy, hot water hot and plentiful, and in excellent decorative order. It would be even better if some information were provided about appliances. For example, I spent ages in the morning trying to figure out how to use the ceramic job to cook my porridge! Host very accommodating and gave clear information about access. If a tea towel had been provided, I would gave dried my breakfast things and put them away too. Fresh milk in the fridge overnight was frozen in the morning (easily fixed using the microwave, but if I’d had other things in the fridge they would have been spoilt. Easy fix but does need sorting.

Unlike a major chain hotel, this is simple and friendly and welcoming. The building is old and full of character - it isn't a white box hotel. The car park was FULL on Saturday night, and I think that tells you everything you need to know. If I add that I slept to eight hours of SILENCE, then this certainly fulfils the 'Bed' part of B&B. As to the 'Breakfast' part, well an extensive help yourself continental breakfast will satisfy most, and then add in the hot food cooked to your order and you're set up for the day. I should tell you that this hotel is 5-miles from anywhere, so you will probably have to go back to Ashbourne if you forgot your toothbrush or you wanted an evening meal; the restaurant only serves breakfast, which is a pity because it is a lovely room. There is The George at Alstonfield about 2-miles away which is a picturesque hamlet, but don't take a big car down this country lane, and if you want a meal then phone ahead; other pubs and restaurants are available on the A515 on the way to Ashbourne.

There isn't a WiFi password because there isn't any WiFi . So your connectivity will depend on what you can get on your phone provider. I'm not making a complaint about the WiFi because it persuaded me to switch off and relax, and that is ALL that you should do in such a beautiful part of Derbyshire.

The hotel and location is stunning. It has gone through a refurbishment recently and is only just reopening after that. The staff were lovely especially Ross who was extremely attentive and helpful. We had a good nights sleep, room was a little chilly at night but not freezing. Breakfast was good quality and excellent value for money. Nice hotel in a stunning part of the uk.

The room was spacious, comfortable and warm. All the amenities you could need to hand. Staff were very welcoming and friendly, explaining the history of the hotel and local walks etc. The breakfast was amazing ... soooo much choice (can highly recommend the fresh baked croissants and full English breakfast). Parking on site and wifi available (though getting reception on your phone may be difficult depending on your network provider).I would definately stay there again on my next visit to the area. Exceltionally good value for money.

Google maps sends you to a house/location past the hotel. Watch out for the flags to make sure you don't have to try and do a u turn to get back to it. Obviously this has nothing to do with the actual hotel but thought I'd share so people avoid missing the entrance.

Great for a short stay if you are visiting the area. Location was perfect as we were there for a hiking weekend, but if you're looking for restaurants/pubs/nightlife you'll have to drive. This is a budget hotel and I dont mean it in a bad way. What you get is great value for money and a great stay. The hotel was very flexibile about leaving our cars on the premises even after we had checked out and gone for a days hike. Bed was surprisingly comfortable even though it didnt look like it at first glance - had a perfect nights sleep. Staff are warm and welcoming. The real surpise came in the morning. Breakfast is EXCELLENT, we really weren't expecting the variety and tasty cooked to order options. Overall I have to rate our stay as a 10. The facilities may not be to everyones preferences - they are good and clean, dont expect luxury but if your stay ends up being like ours, you'll leave very satisfied.

Hotel is located on a fast stretch of the road. Be careful driving out as you have to pay close attention in both directios due to speed of vehicles. But that's not the fault of the hotel.

Parking was good. Room was very clean with en-suite and shower. Wi-Fi worked well. Breakfast had everything juice, coffee machine, cereals, fruit, yoghurts, brown and white toast, butter or marg, selection of jams, honey and marmalade, and a well presented cooked breakfast in a light and airy room. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. A no fuss stay.

I don’t think there was a sign on the road, but Google got me there. The stairs creaked a bit but that didn’t stop me sleeping. Mobile phone connection was weak, but WiFi was good.

The property is in a very good location. Just by a main road so easy to find but very quiet. The room is nice and clean. The breakfast continental part has lots of choices. The full English is good except the sausages. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We had problems with the hot water in the bathroom. The staff did their best to try to solve it and kindly offered us discount.

The hot water problems.
