A great stay in a really nice inn, with a great host, great food and drinks, and friendly locals
Pros:

The pubs is warm and welcoming and the rooms were comfortable and clean.

The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, we didn’t have a lunch or evening meal there, but saw some of the food and it looked fantastic.

The host, Kevin, is really nice man with a great sense of humour and couldn’t do to make our stay as enjoyable as possible.

I can’t recommend this place highly enough for a short stay in the high peaks.

Great pub and great location - highly recommend
Pros:

Traditional pub in an excellent location for walking and an easy off road 15 minute walk into hayfield. The pub itself is friendly and cosy, with log fires and the most amazing food. Best beef we’ve had in a long long time. Staff also really attentive and couldn’t do more for you. Our room was spacious and clean with stunning views. 10/10 for the breakfast. They asked exactly what we wanted and it was cooked to perfection, with options of extras if you wanted two of anything. We’ll most definitely be returning to explore more of the area.

Exceptional.
Pros:

I would just like to thank Mark & Gary and all the staff for such a warm and friendly welcome and making our stay exceptional.

We stayed in the superior double room with a stunning view over the garden and lantern pike in the background, there was ample tea and coffee making facilities, two comfortable chairs, the room had all you needed with added attention to detail. The bed was warm and comfortable with luxury cotton sheets. The en-suite bathroom had lots of space with a large bathtub and shower.

Our breakfast was superior with lots on offer and they were only too pleased to accommodate our dietary requirements. As with all the food served here, it is cooked and prepared with warmth and passion. The main menu had lots of fresh home cooked food on offer. I recommend the homemade cheese and onion pie and the feta salad and cod in beer batter was a delight. The pub itself presents a warm, cosy and friendly atmosphere, good ales and great bar staff and the open fire was a treat.

The location is perfect for exploring the peak district with all the main places in close proximity. If you are looking for
somewhere with a great Derbyshire warm friendly welcome with an amazing host and excellent staff and food, then this is the place for you.
We can't recommend it enough and can't wait to return later this year.

Cons:

The only downside was that my partner became unwell and we had to slightly cut short our visit but a huge thanks to Mark, Gary and all the staff for their genuine concern and attentiveness. You will be pleased to hear that she is recovering well!

Perfect base for Kinder Scout. A warm welcome, great food, and exceptional value
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at the Lantern Pike Inn, which we chose for its ideal location near the start of the Kinder Scout route we were hiking the following day. It’s a lovely village pub with a great atmosphere and friendly locals. The dinner menu offered excellent choice and the food was outstanding.
We were upgraded to a larger room, which was warm, comfortable, and very welcoming. The owner Mike, couldn’t have been more hospitable and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was a freshly cooked full English using local ingredients, and as a thoughtful extra they even sent us off on our hike with fresh fruit and filled our coffee flask.
It was also incredible value for money for the two of us. If you’re hiking in the western Peak District, look no further than the Lantern Pike Inn, you won’t be disappointed.

We had a great stay, could not wish for anything more.
Pros:

We were after a B&B that was in close distance to a wedding that we were attending. The location was excellent. The owners of the establishment were excellent and made you feel very welcome. Nothing was too much trouble. We did have a problem with the door lock, but this was quickly addressed by them. We wanted something to eat but they had finished serving meals, but they made us a fantastic BLT on Ciabatta with salad . The breakfast the next morning was excellent, all cooked fresh to order, no curled up or dry bacon which was great. Sadly we were only there for the one night but the friendliness of the 2 owners was outstanding and you were made to feel like a friend.
Any body visiting this B&B, it is not a 5 star hotel. It is an old country inn with bedrooms and loads of character. The cleanliness and food was better than some of the 4 and 5 star hotels we have stayed in . The welcome and service was 5star plus. There is some refurbishment going on but this did not affect our stay in any way. You got good value for your money. We will most defiantly being going back.

Cons:

If I had to give any negative then possibly the carparking is not the best as you are on a main road, but this would not stop me from visiting again. As long as you realise this is a very old building and does not have all the mod cons, then your stay will be enjoyable.

Very cozy and clean stay!
Pros:

Very warm clean room with comfortable beds and big heater which is important because we stayed there after a long hike in the snow. The location is good for main hikes as it’s 15-20 mins drive from start for Kinder Scout and Mam Tor, the breakfast was superb! Thank you!

Cons:
