Great visit to the spa on one of their daily packages. The staff were super attentive in particular the manager Steven and Alexia. The food was great as well. We will go back.

We popped in for lunch after a long walk so we were rather hungry, the lady that greeted us was rude and appeared to be annoyed we came in lol anyways she seated us in another room, the place looked like a cafe environment so bland and boring so was expecting the menu to be any better, was not expecting those outrageous prices Our afternoon lunch turned fine dining prices, £17 for a sandwich was the only thing that was under £20 just a basic roll with butternut squash and cheese a few chips and they wanted £17 for that, desserts £11 There’s also a very small print of a surcharge at 5%, I would normally challenge this if he service was rubbish but that was the only decent part of our experience, the server was lovely and efficient Anyways we definitely would not return and would not recommend at those prices, and we wonder why the hospitality sector is closing there doors daily, it’s because of the greed

Had a lovely time in the spa or just sitting Infront of the fire chilling with a drink, the staff were great and couldn't do enough for us, especially Martha and the young man at breakfast, bed was comfy, shower amazing and fancy ( we couldn't work out how to use it at first 😄) , toiletries were Amazon from the Chatsworth Estate...would have sat longer before we left but we booked the steam train ride down the road ..

Met for Sunday lunch in the Brasserie for a family celebration. The beef and lamb were tough, Yorkshire pudding was rock hard, the roast potatoes undercooked and hard in the middle and the fat they had been cooked in tasted old. We were given one carrot and a single stick of tenderstem brocolli (again undercooked and rock hard) per person. And paid £25 for the worst Sunday lunch I’ve eaten (or not because it was inedible) for a long time. As my parents were treating us we didn’t want to make a fuss at the time so I emailed the hotel when we got home and six days later they’ve not even had the courtesy to reply. Very very disappointed in the food but in contrast service from the staff was excellent.

Went for a spa day today and a member of staff had rang in poorly so my husbands treatment was cancelled, Steven at the spa couldn't have been any nicer about he offered us a free upgrade to a tent, a bottle of presecco and a mud treatment for my husband instead. He was really a lovely man thank you so much for making it a memorable experience
