It was our 19th wedding anniversary and a last minute booking. I couldn’t fault the hosts despite their upset with renovations not complete before our arrival. This was no fault of their own. The room was perfect. Very clean and the attention to detail was greatly received . The period features that was so fitting to a period property was very well presented.

Loved the decor of the hotel, we stayed in Calke room. Hotel chosen as situated within easy walk to Heights of Abraham event we'd booked. The hotel's Restaurant wasnt fully operational but this is shown on their website. Some hot food was available though Fri & Sat evening and we had very tasty meals. But there are loads of other eateries nearby. Good choices for breakfast as well. All in all we had great weekend with lots to do in the area. We enjoyed the live music at Fish Pond pub short walk along the road also. Would strongly recommend.

Travelled as a couple on weekend break for Matlock illuminations. Hotel has an excellent location, parking(although up a very steep if short incline). It’s an old building, so floors bit uneven but decorated in accordance with its period, so beautiful if that’s your thing as it was ours. If you want the sameness offered by a Hilton, then go to one, this hotel is unique, you can see it immortalised on photos we saw in the Heights of Abraham exhibition from the 1800/1900’s . We had a fabulous stay, staff were lovely, welcoming and their evening menu was delicious, as was breakfast. We will be coming back. Still so much to see in the Derbyshire area, so why not stay here.

The hotel is full of character. The room “Calke” was small but absolutely perfect for us. Being at the back of the property it was very quiet even on a Bank Holiday Sunday. Breakfast was excellent, with loads of choices. Amelia, the receptionist/manager was delightful, helpful and cheerful in every way. In fact all the staff were wonderful. We’d absolutely return.
