    The silver tea and coffee pots used at breakfast were difficult and dangerous to use as the handles retained the heat and the folds of paper provided as protectors were insufficient

    All members of staff were helpful and friendly. Our room [no.18] had lovely views over the countryside and was furnished with two comfortable chairs [often hotels provide only one]

    Hate to say anything negative as we absolutely loved our stay but the pillows were rock hard. Sorry !

    Beautiful country elegance with a very relaxed atmosphere. Staff were very attentive without being invasive. Our room was just perfect.

    Speed of service in restaurant at evening meal was slow and the staff do not seem to communicate with each other. Food portions really meagre but good quality. Breakfast was very slow and had exhausted the coffee before any food arrived (35 minute wait). Bed was uncomfortable, pillows of poor quality. Suggest feather pillows as options and better beds (go to a Premier Inn for an example). Loo flush was inconsistent. Carpets getting threadbare on way to room. For the price expected much better.

    Excellent location for Chatsworth. Lovely hotel but some things need to be done to pull their socks up a bit, see below. Great and super staff. Tasty food but meagre portions. Car park rather slippery in cold weather.

    Food was not good value. Breakfast was not well prepared (for example the buns on the egg Benedict were not toasted, the ham was straight out of the fridge and the eggs cold) and dinner was very ordinary for the price. The plates in the garden room are awful as well, they are difficult to eat from and scratchy.

    Relaxed atmosphere and wonderful views. The team were very helpful, considerate and courteous. I would return just based on how we were made to feel.

    Rooms have no A/C, were hot and a fan was in room. Had to keep windows open at night to get cool air and ventilation. Rooms had a dusty smell.

    Extra water in the fridge would have been appreciated.

    Lovely corner bedroom (No 20) with dual aspect windows overlooking fields. The bedroom was nicely decorated, and the electric fan was much appreciated. Good shower and toiletries. The bed was comfortable, and the hairdryer, long mirror in the wardrobe, dressing table, and chest of drawers were very useful. All the staff were welcoming and attentive. Breakfast was tasty and well presented. There was also a good choice on the breakfast menu (The Chatsworth ginger and lemon biscuits in our room were a lovely treat). We both loved the new Garden Room and terrace. The view from the GR made us think we were in Italy. (Just lovely). The gardens were beautifully maintained, and we loved the quirky layout of the corridors to the rooms. We didn't eat in the restaurant on this visit, but when we visited in March we enjoyed both the surroundings and food.

    Very disappointing breakfast and the lady managing the breakfasts. She was quite rude and when we said we did not enjoy the food she did not seem to care at all. She was rude to other guests so we didn't take it personally. The young gentlemen though was brilliant and very attentive which soften the blow a little :)

    the room was clean and nice. The staff was generally very nice. We have had the afternoon tea which was brilliant! It's walking distance to the Chatsworth House which is amazing.

    the only thing I would say is to train the restaurants staff a bit more. The service for lunch when we arrived was a bit slow and we had to ask for the menu , our order to be taken and then waited to pay for a long time.

    beautiful location and historic building!! the reception staff were amazing and food for lunch was great. I loves the theme of the rooms , really cosy feeling and very comfortable beds and bathrooms.
