Relaxing Suite

Stayed in the Junior Suite, super king size bed and a roll top bath to relax in. The food and drink in the restaurant / bar was very good. It was a sunny day so it was busy and great atmosphere. Would recommend this for a lovely stay.

Told that only thing gluten free on menu was steak with no sauce. No desserts gluten free. So had a bland meal. Next day was told at breakfast that there’s an online allergen menu and that said the sauces and a few desserts were gluten free. Need to inform staff. When checked in told the time of breakfast so assumed it was part of stay. When checked out then had to pay for breakfast but even the coffee wasn’t included in the rate! Room noisy as above pub.

Very comfortable.

The Farmhouse was a lovely surprise. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. I was sad I had only booked one night. Breakfast is extra which you pay for in the morning. A nice selection of continental and hot food. Would definitely stay again.

Loved the Roberts radio

We loved the Roberts radio playing as we entered the room; the room felt more welcoming as a result. Food was very good. Room was clean and tidy, although sparsely furnushed. Chest of drawers/bedside drawers would have been appreciated. Being tall, the sloping wall/ceiling in the bathroom meant I kept coming in to contact with it! Plus side was that our room was very quiet on the top floor - thank you! Overall an excellent stay - thank you very much!

Our stay at the farmhouse at Mackworth was overall very good but spoiled slightly but the fact that my wife and I woke up covered in little bites. the staff were amazing and the place was very very nice so to wake up to this was very strange and must be a total anomaly as I would be surprised if the cleanliness didn’t match the high standards set elsewhere
