The Chequers Inn was a gorgeous little Inn with fantastic food and a great history and atmosphere. The staff were friendly and parking was really easy. The standout was the food and service which was a real surprise it was so good. Location is superb- beautiful countryside. The only downside for us was that the mattress was uncomfortable which made for less than comfortable sleeping. The wifi didn't work in the bedroom and the bedrooms were a bit small for a longer stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend: our room was extremely comfortable; the staff were very friendly and only too happy to assist; the food was fantastic, both in the evening and at breakfast. The road the pub is on is fairly busy. It made for entertaining viewing, as we watched manic drivers and motorcyclists perform risky overtaking stunts. Don't let it put you off though; the pros outweigh this one con; we had a fabulous weekend break!

The size of the room and the quality of the food. The teabags in the room - tasteless - maybe very old. The fact that dining tables were 'pre-selected.' Would prefer to choose one's own.

Excellent food Friendly helpful staff Lack of a comfortable lounge - The bar/restaurant was the only public area and all tables were laid up for food. Our bathroom had a damp smell probably because the bath seal was failing. There was no opportunity to visit other pubs/restaurants without driving.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Excellent selection of guest beers in the bar. Great food cooked well especially the full Derbyshire breakfast. Found the main bar, where we had an excellent dinner, a little chilly after about 9.30pm.

The food was outstanding. Pleasant country pub. Beds were very comfortable. The room was a fair size.The pub was well situated to see the attractions of the area. The staff were excellent. Bathroom was very small but was adequate what spoilt it was the lax cleaning regime. The shower needed a good clean it was very grubby in places. Our handbasin wasn't cleaned during the three days we were there. Bins in the bathroom and the bedroom were not emptied. Beds were not made properly.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent both at breakfast and in the evening Bed was very uncomfortable I would expect a much better mattress in what was termed a superior room. Pillows were also not very comfortable, too small and lumpy. Although the room and bathroom were clean more care could be taken as there were small patches of mould on bathroom tiles.

Staff very friendly and helpful (digging customers' cars out of the snow!) Food was very good and prices reasonable given the quality, variety and presentation - much better than you would expect in a country pub - worthy of the AA Rosette.
