We stayed at the Red House for three nights, dinner, bed and breakfast. Having read the reviews on Tripadvisor I now find it difficult to add anything to what has already been said: this is an excellent hotel with quite outstanding food and wine, and it is impossible to find fault. Our double room was large and gave wonderful views... More

We have just had our 2nd stay at the Red House Country Hotel; this time to incorporate a visit to Chatsworth House. We chose this hotel as we so enjoyed our previous stay. We were not disappointed, the ambience had not changed at all; it does not feel like a hotel, it feels more like visiting friends. The downstairs decor,... More

We spent an excellent weekend at the Red House Country Hotel for a family reunion. We booked a dinner + accommodation which was a very good package. We were delayed in our arrival due to car problems, but they were very helpful in arranging a later dinner. Overall we got a very personal welcome, and help with anything we needed.... More

What a lovely hotel this is. On arrival we were warmly greeted, shown to our room, and then invited to have tea and cake in the lovely lounge - all very civilised ( a word I was to use frequently throughout our 3 night stay). Our room itself was spotlessly clean and there were numerous little touches that showed a... More

Red House Country Hotel is a gem. I was made to feel extremely welcome and the room that I was allocated (I'd been upgraded to a larger room as the hotel was quiet) was beautifully clean with a fantastic view of the garden. The bathroom was modern and spotless and I had one of the best night's sleep that I've... More

The Red House is a real find. While Darley Dale itself may not feature high on the list of places to go within the Peak District, it is an excellent place to base yourself, being as it is within near-enough proximity to Matlock, Matlock Bath, Bakewell, Buxton and, most crucially, the ever-impressive Chatsworth House. The Red House itself is located... More
