Charming Stay in Derbyshire

warm staff dinner plans good breakfast antique furniture

The staff were very warm. Hannah assisted us with dinner plans, finding a local spot that still served food, even making a reservation. Breakfast was spectacularly good. Dinner was excellent too. I especially loved the historical paintings. Plus all the antique furniture was fascinating.

The receptionist wasn't particularly cute.

My room was beautifully decorated. Super clean cleaning was apparent, and I found it to be very comfortable. The bed and pillows felt new and were very soft. The hotel provided extra towels.
