Breakfast is not really included as such. Only the continental buffet. This is cereal, fruits, cereal bars, baked items and a large selection of cakes, including mince pies, which was odd for breakfast. The hot breakfast requires a surcharge to be paid, something I’ve never experienced before. The full English would be best described as part English breakfast, with no sausages, tomatoes, or mushrooms included which is a bit of an insult when you’re paying a surcharge. I can’t fault the service, or anything else, but this felt a bit naughty to be doing.

Why no recent reviews? I have just paid my third visit to this hotel which surely enjoys the most beautiful location in the stunning Derbyshire Peak District, and in recent years has survived a change of ownership. I booked 3 nights b&b in a classic room with a view. Room 2 was pleasant, a little dated, with a small but adequate bathroom, would be very cramped for double occupancy, but a lovely view if you ignore the scruffy area immediately outside the window. The staff as on previous visits were helpful, friendly and efficient but the visit was spoiled by a penny pinching policy which immediately became apparent. Full b&b price was charged for all rooms, including single for occupation, so I had paid £60 extra for 3 nights for 3 breakfasts I did not have. The dining room menu charged £20 for breakfast, plus a supplement if you wanted smoked salmon, eggs Benedict or other items, or what was described as “specialty coffees” - since when was an Americano coffee “specialty” ? When I queried the charge for the 3 breakfasts I could not possibly have eaten I was told that for those booking b&b packages management justify this by describing breakfast as complimentary - despite minimum £20 charge on the menu !! The restaurant menu also makes an additional charge for various items on the dinner menu, none of which could be described as out of the ordinary, so all in all this left a nasty taste for my friends and I. We also heard that tips added to the bill are not shared with staff, so beware. Yes, the location is stunning and the staff still efficient and friendly but recent financial policy discouraging and we will not be visiting again.
