Such a welcoming place. Staff are very efficient and so friendly and welcoming. Lovely atmosphere in the bar, with a good food menu, with well presented, tasty meals. The room was quite basic but equipped with everything you need and lots of lovely touches that made it feel home from home. Breakfast was plentiful, lots of choice. Good location to get around and lovely walks on the Chatsworth estate close by. Totally enjoyed our stay.

The 4 poster bed was comfortable and it was nice that there was a fridge downstairs for fresh milk. But it was quite expensive for the facilities. The staff were friendly, but service was patchy in the restaurant. The breakfast was nice, but the food in the restaurant was very unimaginative, especially for vegetarians. The atea was very pretty.

Genuinely dog friendly, decent pub
Genuinely dog friendly hotel - dogs allowed in all bar and restaurant areas and no passive aggressive signs about keeping them off the bed :-) Well run pub, though not as luxury as I was expecting having stayed in Devonshire Arms’ before - this one is right next to Chatsworth but not run by them! Bit of a busy location and I wouldn’t recommend the “cosy” double but that’s my fault for going cheap!

Lovely short stay. Great bar with an excellent range of beers and wines. Tasty food. Room a little small but clean and bright. The staff were wonderful and really made a difference. They obviously enjoy their jobs and work well as a team. Always helpful and smiling.

What an amazing stay we had. Staff were so welcoming and couldnt do enough during our trip. The accomadation was just what we needed with so many little touches that made us smile. E.g complementary use of childrens an adult wellies and umbrellas for them muddy walks. We ate in the evening at the devonshire and the food was incredible, personally expensive but dont mind paying for quality. Breakfast hit the mark also in the morning. Our room maybe was needing a bit of a sprouse and shelves to store toiletries. But didnt spoil our stay at all.

The Devonshire Arms' greatest asset is its terrific staff, who were cheerful, friendly, full of northern warmth, and who could not have been more obliging, whether hotel, waiting or bar staff. Public areas are atmospheric and well-maintained and clean. The bedroom and bathroom were also clean and pleasantly modern, while remaining suitable for the country style of the establishment. The restaurant provides a good varied menu; the only small gripe I had about it was that when I ordered the mussels, I was told that they were out of season and so weren't being served. First of all, in this age of fast communication, mussels are never out of season, and secondly, if they are not being served for a period of months, or even weeks, then why not print out a menu without them? Desktop publishing is hardly a great effort nowadays. That being said, it in no way spoilt our stay, and the meal I did order was excellent. The Devonshire Arms' policy on dogs is fantastic. How sensible, in a country location where there are bound to be people wanting refreshment and accommodation with their dog, to allow canine access in all public areas and bedrooms. Dogs are not just accepted but actively welcomed and kept topped up with a water bowl. Ours was even given his own free sausage at breakfast. It was much appreciated! The only downside was that we were able to stay just one night on this occasion. I'm sure we'll be back for a longer stay.

Very disappointing
Not sure how this got a rating of excellent. The staff were pleasant. Did not eat here in the evening but breakfast was fine. We only booked late on friday on entering the room there was a definite smell of dog. When using the bathroom it was very dated. We should have refused to stop but when its late in the evening.

Great staff and location plus excellent food!
2nd stay within 12 months. Usual friendly and helpful staff. Nothing a problem and keen to ensure comfortable stay. Stayed room 11 which was a family room. I didn't need this so check what you book as I had ticked the wrong room. Room clean and ideal for a family with a couple of children. Was very hot in night. Dinner was very good as was breakfast. Great location and worth a visit.

Staff had no idea what a gluten free diet was and tried to serve dishes that where clearly not suitable. Not many vegetarian options either. Lovely venue, room really nice and breakfast good
