Hotel information

This beautifully appointed Manor House was constructed in 1794 as a coaching inn on the main route from Nottingham to Ashby. It was originally named The Rawdon Hotel and was conceived and built by the Marquis of Hastings. Now a privately owned hotel, providing a high level of service and intimacy, which is difficult to find in larger hotels, it provides contemporary styling in truly classic surroundings.

Food & beverage

The hotel's AA Rosette winning restaurant, Sage, is renowned for its setting, service and selection of fine foods. The Head Chef, Jeff Cadden, is a master of all things unpretentious, wholesome and home cooked and enjoys utilising local produce from the counties of Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire. He is also a firm believer in value for money, so you can enjoy lunch or dinner in superb surroundings for a competitive price.

Room information

All of the 33 bedrooms are completely unique within the hotel, ranging from the cute and cosy to the sleek and contemporary, and even the gloriously grand and antique.

The hotel boasts a collection of individually styled Suites and Superior Rooms that are truly ideal for any special occasion, most of which enjoy unrestricted garden views, four poster beds or historic features within the original building.

Area information

Located just off the M1 between Nottingham and Derby, the hotel is perfect for both leisure and business guests.
