The Beeley Inn - Chatsworth

Visited for a Sunday dinner and didn’t disappoint! Food was amazing, one of the best roasts I’ve had. Staff members very friendly and accommodating. Food very quick as well. The restaurant is gorgeous, has a proper classic pub feel whilst being very well kept and clean and modern. Definitely recommend for a Sunday dinner

Checked the menu online in the morning and printed it off. Prices had risen by the time we arrived! Sunday lunch by £2 deserts by £1.50. Now it’s a new name so the menu for the beeley inn has to be the current one? Nope. Food was good but we’ve had better (and worse) The crumble at £8.50 was fresh seasonal. Price on pub menu £10. Not intending on going back anytime soon. Very cold in there too.

Strangely my feelings echo someone who stayed at the same time as we did. We were in Jasmine and there was no heating in the room when we arrived until late afternoon . It was December and our room should have been warmly welcoming. We also were surprised that we could not sit down for A warming drink but we’re to be allocated a table by the rather steely receptionist when she permitted. Rather disconcerting. We had a light lunch and the rest of the staff were all very pleasant especially housekeeping who were very helpful . The food was excellent apart from a revolting celeriac starter,tepid and slimy. The Xmas pud was excellent and the kind waitress brought extra brandy sauce. The breakfasts were good and there was a well stocked buffet. My husband checked the bill and found they had overcharged him by a considerable amount which was rectified although I found when I checked the bill they had included drinks over Xmas lunch which we did not have. They supply a hamper for Christmas Day evening which is a bit odd as other Devonshire hotels provided a generous buffet in the comfort of their lounges rather than being dismissed back to their rooms ,rather like being in disgrace at boarding school but with a midnight feast! The bartender Adam really redeemed this place by suggesting we might like our hamper in the bar and he would provide cutlery as we were trying to warm up and then at my request lit the wood stove. Other guests also appreciated that. The place closed at 8.45 that day. Our driver came a little early on Boxing Day and I wasn’t sorry. And please make sure the curtain hooks are checked. My bête noire is dropping curtains.

The room was cold on arrival. None of the radiators worked. The hotel provided a small heater which helped. Dinner was nice but there was no atmosphere in the conservatory and it was all very rushed; 3 courses in an hour and a quarter. We were going to stay for a drink in the bar but all the fires had gone out at 20:45. This was our anniversary and they knew this but there was nothing special about our stay whatsoever.

Very expensive per night for a pub stay. rooms are cold and decor is quite 80s in a bad way. shame beacuse setting and all ...................................................................................................................

Went for afternoon tea Spoke to a lady in pink ,said i had a table booked for 3pm, gave no name... promptly seated same lady brought our afternoon tea out.... she was friendly no one came whilst eating to see if everything was ok... polite practice to do so could not find room to eat the scones.... had to search for an assistance.... spoke to a woman in blue, not friendly, asked for a box to take said scones home... very ABRUPT What has happened to the extremely jolly staff that worked here before .... the present incumbents just not up to the job... especially the ABRUPT woman in BLUE The DEV was one of our favourite places .... fast losing our respect
