Great location, some great elements but room for improvement!
Pros:

Comfortable bed, fresh white sheets and large white towels. Refreshments of tea and coffee in the room.
Secondary sliding glazing keeps road noise to a minimum.
A male staff member on duty at breakfast 15/9/26 was very polite, seemed to be on his own, answering phones, taking orders, making coffees and serving. He is an absolute credit to Fox House. He is very polite and has a calm approach to being host.
Very good location for walks
Car park for patrons only and enter car reg on arrival.

Cons:

On arrival two female staff saw us waiting to check in but walked past us. The rooms are in a separate building across the courtyard. It was raining so we had to make a dash to the inn for breakfast.
Wi-Fi times out after a short period of time.
Room needs a deep clean, spiders, cobwebs and dead insects on the carpet under the raised chairs. Behind bathroom door again cobwebs, dead spiders and even a waste packet indicating the bathroom floor hadn’t even been cleaned. We moved the chairs to watch TV and it wasn’t good. Should have been vacuumed. Generally the room was dusty, and requires update of decor.
Shower tray very badly scratched, suspect this is from showering dogs? Never seen a tray so badly scratched.
No internal soundproofing so we could hear the room upstairs TV, flushing of toilet, shower and walking on floorboards.
Awaited more than 45 mins for breakfast yet sausages and eggs were overcooked.

Great staff and food but very disappointing room.
Pros:

The staff and food

Cons:

The room- very expensive for what you got. Bathroom smelt of stale urine. Shampoo and body lotion in one bottle. No water provided in the room. For £143 I would have expected a lot more.

A beautiful reflection of how beautiful the Peak District is, in both location and people.
Pros:

Staff is lovely, location is perfect and the accommodation leaves 0 complaints. Me and my girlfriend visit regularly and each time we’re reminded why.

Cons:

We may have annoyed a cleaner by being 8 minutes late out of the room. Sorry Ms Cleaner, I was looking for my dodgy firestick (don’t tell anyone)
