Soggiorno veramente confortevole
Pros:

L'atmosfera, il bellissimo pub, l'accoglienza calda e familiare dello staff e infine la cucina. Ottima la posizione per poter fare le passeggiate interne al parco Peack District.

Cons:

Purtroppo il Wheatsheafè situato in una posizione molto vicina alla strada, caratterizzata da un intenso traffico veicolare e da un frequente passaggio di mezzi pesanti, anche nelle ore notturne.

Pros:

I came to Baslow hoping to slow down and recharge a bit after a busy period, with plenty of oppurtunity for hiking. I wasn't disappointed.

From the inn, it's just a short walk to the Chatsworth Estate, where I spent hours wandering the beautiful grounds, spotting deer in the early morning and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. In the other direction, you're quickly in the Peak District, with wonderful walks to Baslow Edge and Curbar Edge.

I received a warm welcome on arrival. My room was spacious, clean and comfortable. I had asked for a room with a bath, and they kindly made sure I had one.

As the inn is a pub and restaurant, you can hear some activity downstairs during the day and early evening, which is only to be expected. At night, however, it was wonderfully quiet, and I slept very well.
I had a lovely stay and would happily return.

Horrific- worst place I’ve ever stayed
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

It was very tired and in need of refurbishment. It was in a small village in Derbyshire but I was kept awake for most of the night with the non-stop thundering of enormous lorries which I found out is a very popular route to Manchester! It was so loud that I couldn’t hear the TV so gave up on that and turned it off. There was no double glazing so shutting the window on a hot night was no help. The room itself was dark and dingy with cracks in the plaster and cobwebs in dark corners. I don’t usually leave reviews but people need to know not to stay here. All that for £125 a night (about £35 more as I was a single occupant!).
