missingWrote a review on 24 Novgreat locationspacious roomamazing breakfastbad wi-fi
the location was simply amazin with stunning views. our king room with mountain view was really spacious and had a great vibe. breakfast was a solid 10/10, lots of options including fresh cooked meals. the staff were mostly nice and always ready to help us. sunday roast was also pretty good value for money.
but we had a bit of a hassle getting the room we booked n it was super hot at night, a fan wasn't enough to cool things down. also, wi-fi inside our room was almost non-existent.

The location is absolutely stunning, right near Dovedale with beautiful views from the room. The staff greeted me warmly and were always ready to help, making me feel at home. The room felt spacious and clean, with comfy beds that made it easy to rest well at night. Breakfast stood out completely. plenty of choices and freshly cooked options that really kickstart the day. the Wi-Fi could definitely use improvement. the connection was spotty at times. The menu for dinner felt somewhat limited, and I would have preferred more variety to choose from. the charming surroundings and friendly service outweighed the issues, but some aspects could use a little work.

Had a lovely time during my stay. the food was top-notch with a cozy atmosphere. I really enjoyed unwinding in the garden area and the comfy lounge space. Just be aware that the decor feels a bit dated, but it didn’t take away from my experience. 🌿

This place was just a prime choice for a quick stop in Ashbourne (Derbyshire) with value for price. The king size bed was really comfortable, and I appreciated having two easy chairs to take in the view. A tip for others, try to avoid large suitcases as there are a few stairs to navigate.

Sitting in the heart of stunning natural beauty, the views from the King Room with Mountain View are truly something to behold. The surrounding landscape offers lovely scenery for those who enjoy a quiet, picturesque retreat.
The TV in the room is shockingly small, making it tough to catch a good movie together. Charging phones poses a hassle due to the lack of plugs near the beds, and one socket hanging off the wall is definitely a safety concern. The bathroom had some quirks—no hot water at the sink and the shower took around five minutes to heat up, which is a bit frustrating. While the breakfast was fine, the pizzas served at dinner were quite bland, tasting more like dough than anything else. the dated decor left me feeling underwhelmed, and the overall experience felt mismatched with the price we paid.
