Needs updating for warm summers
The staff are very nice and it’s a clean place to stay. The BIG issue is our room was extremely warm on a day that hit at most 24 Celsius. We had to take turns sleeping in the car as our baby couldn’t stand it, and nor could we. A small table fan was provided, which wasn’t nearly enough. Ideally the room would have a window fan to get cool evening air in so people can sleep. AC may be needed as English summers keep getting warmer, but maybe that isn’t possible in this building…

Devonshire Arms, our favorite…
Wonderful stay at Devonshire Arms as we traveled through the UK. This was our favorite hotel during our trip and our favorite meal. The room was cute and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were both delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful. We cannot wait to visit again.

I would absolutely come back to the Devonshire Arms. The room was cozy and clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the overall feel was just wonderful. My sister and I were able to walk over to the Chatsworth House and take a bus into Bakewell for some shopping. I'll be recommending the Devonshire Arms to anyone and everyone. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Delightful break.
Absolutely wonderful. Comfortable accommodation and pub, which offerred a good selection of beers, wines and spirits. The food was very good, and the staff were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Social distancing was present in the bar and dining room, with hand gel available both by the pub door and before you enter the bar area. All tables were throughly cleaned, both inside and in the beer garden, when ever tables were vacated. Scenery around the Inn and accommodation was stunning.
