Staff were really friendly at arrival and breakfast, Steph really took care of us during our stay. The food both at dinner and breakfast was good pub food and definitely needed after a long trip.
The room itself is basic but very clean, additional items such as tv, kettle, tea,coffee milk, shampoo/conditioner, soap and towels were all provided. The rooms are in converted stables next to the pub and we didnt really hear any noise from the pub or other guests so managed to get a good nights sleep. Around the accommodation was a lovely little garden with a little pond that looks well looked after it nice to view in the morning.
We have a car so the steep hill up to the pub wasn't an issue but other guests would need to consider this if planning to walk into Matlock.
Overall, a really lovely stay and we would be happy to stay here again.
lovely stay in Matlock. Great rooms and pub. Nice and quiet in the rooms and dog friendly which is great.
Staff all lovely. We will be definitely staying again.
It was perfect for us - easy to get to and a great stop off on our way south. I know they are planning to upgrade all the rooms but ours was clean and cosy and just what was needed for a quick overnight. Althought to be fair we could have stayed alot longer as the pub was just as we would want an old English pub to be - traditional and modern. Oak furniture, fireplace,wee nooks, centuries of history and many chiming clocks...as well as all the things a good modern pub should have. We missed pub food as we were late checking in( rang ahead but late arrival was no prob ..not least cos the rooms are in several outside stone building conversions), but breakfast was great - landlord and bar staff friendly and up for a chat. The guinness was great and Inches on draught ! We had a really really lovely brief stay - unexpectedly so and so good that we will def go back. The menu looked great also. The photos dont do the place justice, but dont tell, as then everyone will want to stay there ; )
We had a lovely stay. Room basic but clean tidy and had everything we needed. Very quiet.
The pub food was excellent. The staff very friendly and helpful.
The room was ok. Nothing to write home about, bathroom adequate although the tiles were loose.
Breakfast for which we paid on check in; well it was ÂŁ10 each so not expensive but no options. No cereal although there were some boxes but no dishes or milk. No options on what we wanted. Weâd booked it fo 8:30 am on a Sunday morning so not late. The server really couldnât be bothered and wanted us gone. Didnât ask if we wanted more coffee/tea. On the whole, I wished weâd have gone elsewhere for breakfast where someone wanted our money.
A great place - we didnât eat there but it had a friendly bar with an open fire good beers and service land a very cute comfortable room across the courtyard.
The room was clean and warm with a bath and endless hot water.
The food in the restaurant is fairly priced and arrived quickly.
Only one vegan starter. No other vegan options.
Very close to shops and restaurants.
Good welcome, room was lovely and warm and bedding clean and plenty of pillows and spotlessly clean towels. Nice touch of biscuits and chocolate. Great location and good price. Sadly there were signs of mould around the door and bathroom tiling could do with a more intense cleaning of the grout as orange/yellow build up, plus I shared the bathroom with two very large spiders that were well established as had webs in corners. Having said this, I would use the Wellington again as really convenient for me and the upsides well outweighed the downsides which could be easily rectified
We liked the staff, and the pub which was warm and welcoming, also the quaint accommodation. The room we stayed in was average and okay as a base to sleep. We didn't like the bathroom as it hadn't been cleaned properly, there was mould around the sides of the bath and shower screen, the plug hole was covered in rust (making it difficult to keep clean) and full of hair and the bath itself hadn't been cleaned properly therefore we were both unable to have a shower. Also the window was full of cobwebs, not just a days worth either, something which would have taken seconds to put right with a feather duster! Overall we were very disappointed after the warm welcome we had received as we would have liked to have been able to have given a good review but just couldn't!
The restaurant in the pub and staff were very good. The outside area around the pub and rooms needs tiding up and the room needs some TLC as well as a good clean, cobwebs in corners, tv taking off wall and bracket which was left there covered in dirt and dust, just need some TLC
