Last Monday we went on one of Jane’s walks from the Devonshire. After being given a brief history of the hotel and Cavendish family we walked towards the Tithe Barn, looking at the beautiful view and on down to the river. We learnt a lot about the family and the running of the Bolton Abbey and Chatsworth Estates. After walking through the Abbey and seeing inside the Priory we were treated to Yorkshire Parkin! Delicious. Jane was very knowledgable, looked after us in the heat with water to drink and occasional rests in the shade. Highly recommended.

We have been many times in the last few years, and again visited the seafood terrace on a Saturday afternoon. We had some small bites of prawn cake, white bait and pickled onion rings. Other than the onion rings lacking a bit of zing, the food was decent to share with a pint and good value. Lovely place to visit for a drink and nibbles.

Broke down near the hotel on the way to the Abbey, the maintenance man at the hotel offered to help us by driving to get us the coolant needed, he was very kind and it is the best customer service we have received, ended up stopping for lunch here because of this, would really recommend.

We had a delicious lunch in the Brasserie, which is the venue which welcomes dogs. I had soup and herb stuffed pork fillet followed by a delicious panna cotta the service was excellent and professional

Always had fabulous spa days at the Devonshire with a lovely light lunch & wow treatments are fab. Me & my sister always love coming here & always say afterwards what a lovely relaxing day we’ve had. The staff are very friendly & attentive. As I live local & had the day off from work thought I would book in for a treatment only. Had a lovely coffee to start with, then I had the Temple Spa Drift Away Treatment!!! Absolutely amazing, thank you Ellie, I left feeling so relaxed & chilled. Will definitely be back soon
