Pros:

We waren op doorreis met 3 volwassenen voor 1 nacht in een gezamenlijke kamer met 3 bedden. Mooie ruime kamer, goed verzorgd en ruime badkamer. Er zit ook een pub bij en een restaurant (overigens niet hier gegeten) Ontbijtbuffet was netjes verzorgd.

Cons:

Eigenlijk niets, prijs / prestatie is in orde.

I would stay here again but a bit more love needs to go into this room.
Pros:

Beautiful building and well decorated. Staff friendly and pleasant. Breakfast was nice, too.

Cons:

The ‘dungeon’ room was a bit sad-looking. Scuffs on wall, scuffs all over skirting boards, terrible patch-up jobs on the wall, especially near the light switch. It definitely needs a new lick of paint. The duvet was far too heavy for this time of year, also. However, the bed was comfortable and the room itself is lovely, but just a shame about the listed things above.

A wonderful PEAK DISTRICT pub
Pros:

The room was spacious and clean! The staff were absolutely fantastic and the food and beer were excellent!

Cons:

The parking was difficult! I would advise that anyone who books here just bear in mind that parking is sparse! You can park on the street after 6pm or there is a bigger ‘pay and display’ carpark 5 mins away!

Pros:

Buona posizione vicino a Chatsworth, camera spaziosa, letto accogliente

Cons:

Dovevamo passare dalla scala di servizio e date le due rampe di scale con le valigie, non è stato semplice.
Parcheggio praticamente sulla strada quasi, la colazione durava dalle 8 alle 9
