The Devonshire Arms Baslow

The staff were very friendly and helpful and breakfast was good. We stayed in the family room and it was absolutely fine for what we needed but a bit rough around the edges - the bunk beds were good for the kids and there were two bathrooms which was a bonus. Some books and games in there which was a nice touch. Had a kettle and drink station and a tv in each room (although we didn’t seem to be able to use both at the same time for some reason). The downside was that the room was above the kitchen and extremely noisy in the evening before 9:30pm, as would be expected with people working there (the music got pretty unbearable at times unfortunately) so be aware if you have young kids with an earlier bedtime. Floorboards also pretty noisy, so if you have sensitive sleepers, maybe not ideal. Otherwise, it did the job and past 9:30pm it was fairly quiet and comfortable.

Lovely friendly staff, nice room with quaality toiletries, freah milk available for the room. Fruit available for breakfast would be welcome.

Great breakfast and attentive staff

We were made very welcome. Nice touches in the room.

***********

Shower don’t work. Even bath taps as well. Complained. In morning just got a sorry - couldn’t wash ! Could only use sink. Appalling service for a hotel they sets a high standard. Staff manager in morning was rude - only polite staff were in breakfast or on bar. Manager needs a lesson in communication skill. No compensation offered. Awaiting refund

The bar was closing early but I wasn’t informed if this until a few days after I’d made the Booking.

Everything was good thank you

Room was clean but bathroom a little tired

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.

Nice room and good breakfast. There needs to be a separate area for dogs at breakfast as we had dogs next to us on both sides during breakfast.

Very pricey for a small double room and pathetic showers.

As a small hotel everything was great and the food lovely, and plentiful

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.

Welcoming and friendly

Nature around nice walks

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 “hot water”. 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.

Very nice room and bathroom. Staff were friendly and helpful. Excellent evening meal in the restaurant
