Staff were really friendly at arrival and breakfast, Steph really took care of us during our stay. The food both at dinner and breakfast was good pub food and definitely needed after a long trip.
The room itself is basic but very clean, additional items such as tv, kettle, tea,coffee milk, shampoo/conditioner, soap and towels were all provided. The rooms are in converted stables next to the pub and we didnt really hear any noise from the pub or other guests so managed to get a good nights sleep. Around the accommodation was a lovely little garden with a little pond that looks well looked after it nice to view in the morning.
We have a car so the steep hill up to the pub wasn't an issue but other guests would need to consider this if planning to walk into Matlock.
Overall, a really lovely stay and we would be happy to stay here again.

Pub rooms were good, including shower and facilities. Free car parking useful in a town were the hills are too steep for walking into town centre.

The room was clean and warm with a bath and endless hot water.
The food in the restaurant is fairly priced and arrived quickly.
Only one vegan starter. No other vegan options.
Very close to shops and restaurants.

The restaurant in the pub and staff were very good. The outside area around the pub and rooms needs tiding up and the room needs some TLC as well as a good clean, cobwebs in corners, tv taking off wall and bracket which was left there covered in dirt and dust, just need some TLC
