Finde Hotels in Wetton

My daughter-in-law will be leading a residential school trip here in a couple of weeks, so we came to see the accommodation (and surrounding areas) in person. The hostel is in a fantastic location - close to local amenities, and it’s a great base from which to explore. I loved the building itself - it dates back to the 17th century and has retained its charm with beautiful stained glass windows and oak panelling throughout. We had a look at the dormitories, some of which have en-suite facilities. The rooms were clean and looked very comfortable. There are also Land Pods and Bell Tents within the grounds - which is somewhere I would love to stay at some point. Whilst there we ate in their restaurant - and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. They also cater for dietary requirements. All the staff we met were very friendly and really helpful. Highly recommended.

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.

Frühstück ist nicht wirklich als solches enthalten. Nur das kontinentale Buffet. Das ist Getreide, Obst, Getreidebars, gebackene Artikel und eine große Auswahl an Kuchen, einschließlich Mücken, die für das Frühstück seltsam war. Das heiße Frühstück erfordert eine Zuschlagsgebühr, was ich noch nie erlebt habe. 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. Ich kann den Service oder was anderes nicht brechen, aber das fühlte sich ein wenig unnötig zu tun.
