Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight. The rooms were impeccable, and I only wished my stay could have been longer. The upmarket feel of the rooms added a touch of luxury to our experience. We enjoyed a wonderful evening at the local church for Carols by Candlelight, followed by a delicious dinner at The Dovecote Restaurant and a delightful breakfast in the hotel dining room.

My stay at the hotel was absolutely lovely. The room was larger than expected with a nice bathroom featuring a bath and a separate shower cubicle. The facilities could use some improvement, but overall, it was a comfortable and spotlessly clean experience. The breakfast was excellent and the setting in the countryside, yet close to Derby, was delightful.
