We stayed at the farmhouse because we were attending a wedding at the hotel 2mins away- on arrival we were greeted by Peter, friendly and welcoming, a working dairy farm so fresh milk in the room, a good selection of teas and complimentary biscuits.
Mini fridge in the room with complimentary water.
Continual breakfast offered or a 5min walk hotel if you want a hot breakfast
I don't mind admitting that when I saw the reviews of this property, I didn't really think they could all be true. But it makes such a difference having such a welcoming host. Our host was fantastic. Such a difference from a lockbox and a code. He met us at the car, helped us unload, took our suitcase upstairs and there was nothing that was too much trouble for him. The property is very clean, the bed is very comfortable and the supplies of tea and coffee are ample, also a supply of green tea and peppermint tea and biscuits. You don't often get that with most hotels or b&bs. I would have liked to have stayed for breakfast and commented on the breakfast but unfortunately we had other plans for breakfast. I'm sure it would have been lovely though. The property itself is a farmhouse and is really characteristic especially being located on a farm or next to. Just a 10 to 15 minute uber drive into Derby city centre. We will definitely be back.
Fantastic property. Beautifully designed and super easy to get to the local pub and visit attractions in the area. Peter the host was lovely and so welcoming. We would definitely stay again.
Peter is a wonderful host and very interesting person. We got talking to him on various subjects very quickly. There is a massive collection of pianos in the house. Unfortunately we did not have the opportunity to watch Peter play music.
I would highly recommend the place if you like country side but not far from restaurants and walks.
My son and I stay here for a night after going to download a lovely little b&b quiet and out of the way the safe where really friendly. Breakfast was available however as we had a long drive we left without trying it I'm sure it would have been nice too.
I booked with Peter as I was attending a party at the close by Farmhouse venue. My room was beautifully clean and very comfortable. As the weather was inclement Peter very kindly offered to drop me up to the Farmhouse which is just a few minutes away. However the real favour was when he offered to then collect me at 1.20am in the morning! As a single woman visiting an unknown area I can't tell you how welcome and kind this was. It is unlikely a taxi would have agreed to do a 5 minute trip. I can't say enough about Peter and his team. Such a warm welcome and a very comfortable stay. Thank you so much.
Peter & Mark were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Mark cooked us a delicious breakfast! Our room was spacious, with a comfortable bed, powerful shower and a separate lounge area!
We would definitely stay again!
Our second time staying at Mackworth House Farm and once again we were blown away by the attentiveness of the staff, and just how lovely the property and area is.
