The Farmhouse At Mackworth

They didn’t seem to have enough staff on our visit. It took 20 mins for drinks to arrive, the child’s dinner was cold as was mine. In their favour they replaced both and the team were very apologetic but we won’t visit again before 5 on a Sunday.

We had dinner with our family on a Sunday evening while visiting the area. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was inviting. There is a large car park available and I know from previous visits that they have a lovely garden for the summer months.

Had lunch a one night stay. The sandwich was entirely forgettable the chips stuck together in clumps. The room had a bathroom with peeling paint on the walls and a bath towel wedged along its window opening, in a vain attempt to stop the cold from coming in. Won’t be going again, nor recommending others to do so. Voir le carte

This place used to be fabulous with all home cooked food. Unfortunately it has now gone all Marston's branded, with food presumably bought in and heated up on site. I'm sure that makes a higher profit margin per plate for Marstons but its not what I want I try really hard to avoid ultra processed food, I cook from scratch at home, and I expect restaurants to do the same. The food has changed from fabulous to average and I won't be back in a hurry.

Entrance crowded with smokers, so a cloud of tobacco to walk through to get in.. then met disintersted bar staff, who serve 'extra cold ' Guinness at room temperature and really do not care when told about it, same as the restaurant staff who were so uninterested when told the seats were dirty and should be cleaned.. almost like they were above speaking to the public. A venue with great potential, but sadly the staff need re training or replacing.

I recently attended a club meeting at the Library and found the venue to be nice, with very helpful staff. However, I was shocked at the prices Marstons charged for a glass of Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand and Chile. The ordinary wine was priced at £14 and £10 respectively, making it quite expensive. It's best to stick to water with your meal to avoid overspending on drinks. Several people in our group were also surprised by the prices when they received their drinks. Voir le carte

My friend had a voucher, which we gladly used. We decided to go for lunch and were delighted with our experience. We were greeted with a smile and seated immediately. The entire staff was friendly and eager to assist. My friend chose the steak pie and I opted for fish and chips. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals, which were delicious and served piping hot. The efficiency of the staff was impressive, and the kitchen should be commended for the quality of the food and its presentation. Jake primarily served us and provided exceptional service, but all the staff members were fantastic.

I love this hotel. So much so, I organised my team meeting here just before Christmas and 10 of us stayed here and had dinner. We also used the meeting room facilities which was great. We work for a national pub co and we were very impressed with the service and experience. I subsequently stayed here whilst on business a couple of times. Tonight, 23rd Jan 24, I decided to eat elsewhere whilst staying here (The Bluebell; which was great). We arrived back at The Farmouse at 10:56pm and asked for a drink to take up to our room. The duty manager said no; the bar is closed and that is that. I was very surprised at this and said so; to be told that I was rude and needed to leave because the bar wa...

Still on cloud 9 after a wonderful long birthday weekend with my hubby at this lovely hotel. We booked here as a base to explore the Peak District and celebrate my birthday and it definitely exceeded our expectations! We booked to stay in the Napoleon suite and were both honestly blown away with how impressive it is not just in size but all the facilities and little touches that have been added just helped to make it extra special. The cookies were delicious and having these replenished and the bottled water plus a coffee machine and a DAB radio were an added bonus. Plus having two TVs meant we could both watch something from the bed and from the bath which was just heavenly…. The room itsel... Voir le carte
