Very welcoming Very dog friendly - some nice little touches nice public area decor and warm pub feel - but very small room and very average evening meal and poor breakfast - burned over done fried eggs un toasted or buttered muffins with rubbery scrambled eggs that had caught - and very expensive for the quality - obvious Chatsworth proximity price hike.
Stopover journey , room was very comfortable and warm, very clean.
Food in the bar was excellent value for money.
Nice touch was the bathroom toiletries and walking guides provided.
Receptionist and bar staff very friendly and knowledgeable.
Friendly staff. Room and bed comfortable. Bathroom in need of a refurb. Food generally good, but a lot of the breakfast was diy. Tea needs boiling water not âhot waterâ. Surprising number of dishes off on Sunday evening - more off than on! Quality of food served was good though. Big mix up with desserts on last evening, but apologies made with financial compensation. Again quality of food very good - with wide choice of dishes at very reasonable prices (supper club menu).
The Devonshire arms in baslow was a very quaint and beautifully decorated in for us to stay. It encapsulated the English countryside vibe that we were going for. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food in both the restaurant and pub area was excellent. We absolutely loved being there, and glad we were there for three nights. We would highly recommend this place to others!
One thing for others, particularly Americans, to be aware of is that there is no air conditioning in the guestrooms. They do provide a fan in each room. There is a little bit of age with the building, but nothing that was a complete turn away. It could be seen mainly in the carpet in the hallway and guest rooms. These were not items to turn us away, though. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Disappointing breakfastâŠ. Very small choice of fresh fruit⊠2 piecesâŠsliced bread only so no choice of artisan breads.
Smashed avocado was not smashed avocado but green sludge!
Did not wish to complain since staff were working hard and doing their best under clearly difficult circumstances.
Did not have evening meal.
My friend and I only stayed here for a single night so we could visit Chatsworth House and we kept talking afterward about how we wished we had stayed at least another day because this inn was absolutely wonderful!
The room we had was so adorable and lovely, plus they had complimentary snacks and refreshments for us! We arrived earlier than the check-in time and the staff was super lovely about holding our bags for us so we could go visit Chatsworth while waiting for our room to be ready. Even better, when we got back, the staff had already carried our luggage all the way up to our room for us! Seriously, such a nice staff!
We definitely hope to visit again just so we can spend more time at the Devonshire Arms!
