Dog friendly and in good location. Very handy for one night stopover and would use again. Room could do with a bit of deep cleaning/ maintenence in some places, particularly mould around bathroom window frame.

Room very tired. Staff exceptionally friendly. Cracking bar

Vary good

Clean rooms, dog friendly pub. Real value for money. Perfect location for exploring the Peak District. Would definitely recommend

Do not stay! Room dirty, broken furniture, full of cobwebs and mould. No housekeeping during stay to replenish cups, tea, milk etc. Contacted the property to request a reimbursement before posting a negative comment. But no response from owners.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was nice and warm. Ate breakfast and dinner there, everything was beautifully cooked and tasty. Would return again for another trip to see family.

Staff pleasant and accommodating, room generally clean .

Nice short stay in clean and tidy room

Lovely room, friendly staff. Pub excellent. Thank you!

Lovely room, clean and warm. Good food in the pub and enjoyed our evening there. Free parking a bonus

Great location near to Matlock town centre, cosy pub with good options for food and drink. Room was clean and cosy for our small family.

Staff great,food tasty and well worth of the money accommodation clean and neat definitely go back .

Overall the stay was pleasant....the staff were friendly and welcoming, the food was very good, my partner was really impressed with his steak and stilton & mushroom sauce and the drinks were reasonably priced. The only slight negative for me was the accommodation, the pillows were just awful, literally felt like cut up cubes of foam (sorry don't like to be negative) I even folded up a bath towel and put this inside the pillow case as it was so bad, that didn't help much either. There was also mould in the room around the windows. It was a very basic room but had all the tea/coffee making facilities, shower gels in the bathroom and a T.V....ok if you are looking for a cheap n cheerful stay. Just to warn, the pub actually gets really busy so if you are planning to stay and eat, then I would definitely reserve a table beforehand if you can.

The rooms were clean and everything we needed for our wee break. The breakfast was superb. Friendly staff.

Was a lovely stay

Room felt homely, was warm enough and the bed was comfortable. I was happy with the cleanliness. The staff in the pub appeared helpful and welcoming, if i needed anything, i felt they would be happy to help. I felt safe there as a solo traveller. I had a bath. There was a hairdryer, but i didn't need it. The room did have some mould, but it wasn't obvious at first glance. The bathroom initially smelled of dampness, but after a while, I didn't notice. I had to move the nightstands, though, to access the power sockets. Despite these issues, I was overall happy with my stay and slept well. Before coming, I went for a nature walk in Lumsdale Valley circular walk and only had to drive a few minutes from there to get to the Duke of Wellington. I ate in the pub. I enjoyed my food; it was a small portion for a lot of money, but it tasted nice.

Amazing stay!

Staff came across as rude, the room smelt of wet dog.
