I wouldn’t stay anywhere else, just minutes off M1 and free parking
Pros:

Breakfast - excellent variety of fruits and pastries, cooked breakfast: impressed that the eggs cooked anyway you like, & I like omelettes and enjoyed a delicious cheese omelette, thanks to the obliging staff & chef. All staff very friendly and room and facilities warm and ultra clean. Excellent location- a short drive from Stanhope Arms Ilkeston offering great hospitality and excellent food.

Cons:

Cannot fault it. Was my second visit here and I shall return.
