    Breakfast not included

    Good size rooms separate from the pub. I would recommend people stay in a first floor room as members of my party who stayed on the ground floor found it slightly noisy in the morning. A shame breakfast is not included in the cost. Excellent location. - very short walk to the Longshaw estate which is beautiful

    For the price I would have expected breakfast to be included. Also, because of no signal in the area, Wifi is very important and it is bad to non-existent at the Fox. This was the case when we first went there 10 years ago so shouldn't still be an issue today.

    We have been to the Fox several times because of its ideal location and comfortable surroundings. The staff were super friendly and helpful and the food excellent. The room was clean and had all the facilities you would expect.

    Unfortunately our stay was greatly marred by confusion, stress and worry when we tried to check in - we were told we couldn't stay for our two nights as there was a room out of service and they were fully booked. Apparently, Booking.com should have contacted us, which they hadn't. We were basically told to go and call Booking.com. We had no phone signal inside the property so had to sit in our van. Booking.com hung up the first time I called (I was waiting for 10 minutes before they hung up), then eventually we got through and were told there was no problem, they'd contacted the property and we had a room.. on re-entering the property we were once again told by the same member of staff that we had no room and they'd had no phonecall from Booking.com. It was 5pm at this point and cold and dark. Fortunately the manager came on shift and sorted the situation out - we did have a room allocated. I asked for a drink on the house for what we'd endured, which he agreed to and all was well. I dare say all this could have been so much less stressful had the staff offered to help us sort out the situation in the first place, either by lending us a phone or calling Booking.com for us, as they'd obviously been a mix up as my booking still said confirmed on the App. To be basically sent off to sort it out ourselves was uncalled for and quite rude. The manager was great though.

    Room was lovely - comfortable, clean, spacious, quiet, great shower. Property served tasty food. Great location for going on walks in the Peaks. Most staff were friendly and welcoming.

    The bathroom was tiny and the toilet quite difficult to use because of the tight narrow position of it between the sink and a toilet roll holder.

    We loved the location of the Fox House, it is perfect for the local attractions we were visiting in the area. Breakfast was delicious and staff seemed helpful and friendly. Plenty of free parking space.

    Checkout way too early. Pub was cold with no logs left for the fire. Ordered fish and chips and fish was stale and not worth what I paid.

    Friendly staff, good service, great location. Was quiet and comfortable.

    Hard to fault it. Bathroom a bit chilly but that’s just nitpicking.

    We’ve stayed twice before and love this inn. Fabulous views and walks on the doorstep, cosy log fire in the bar (our preferred dining spot) and a delicious belly pork roast followed by home made crumble. Staff are friendly and our waiter recommended local Ladybower Reservoir walk which we did next day *****. . Room was spotless and comfortable .Hope to return soon.
