“I was impressed by the commitment to creating a welcoming atmosphere for families, including child-friendly facilities. The focus on locally sourced cuisine and live music suggests a vibrant community hub. Its location offers a sweet spot: close to major attractions like Alton Towers and the Peak District, yet removed from the intense crowds. I think it's a great base for exploring Derbyshire.”
