Amazing venue, in the Derbyshire countryside. They have upgraded the afternoon tea to add sausages rolls and soup, very nice touch. The whole feel to the place is so relaxing and peaceful. Love the conservatory restaurant, you feel like you are eating with a real English garden, and the views across the valley are spectacular from the hotel. The staff are so friendly and helpful.

Makeney Hall and Nicola literally made our wedding the most amazing day. From the service, to their help and support our entire day, it was wonderful. Even if you are only using their rooms, they are all stunning and the breakfast is perfect. Would give over 5* if I could!!

This is a beautiful hotel with such gorgeous grounds, we attended a wedding so only really had engagement with the staff at check in and breakfast but all were polite. The rooms and hallways in the courtyard side needed a little updating but overall this was a lovely hotel and we would definitely go again. There was a slight issue with the shower but when I told the reception team they noted it for repair straight away. I would like to add that although the venue is wheelchair accessible in some areas more consideration in the main building needs to be given as to get to the disabled toilets we had to leave the building and go back to the courtyard area in order to access the ramps to toilet this wasn’t great.

I booked an accessible room..yes there was a walk in shower but no grab rails at all..not safe for mobility reduced person so could not use shower facilities.. The toilet area also had no fold down bar to ensure safe seating very challenging to use... Above safety issues could be easily adapted.. No hook on inner bathroom door to hang items of clothing..again, an easy fixture

Only went for afternoon tea so can’t comment on the rooms. Wouldn’t go again for afternoon tea. 4 of us went as a birthday treat. It started off with a sausage roll and very small cup of thick soup (about the size of a boiled egg cup). Then the main food came on a three tier plate stand. Although the sandwiches were fresh you only received 4 tiny triangles each. A scone each with cream and jam, a mini macaroon and slice of cake each and small dessert in a shot glass. It was all nice enough but the service was extremely impersonal. It only comes with tea or coffee so the server left without offering me anything else. I had to ask for a cold drink when she returned with the coffee, which was chargeable. Overall an experience I wouldn’t want to repeat
