This was our third time staying at Mackworth House Farm and, as ever, Peter was the perfect host. The room was clean, tidy and spacious with a beautiful view of the garden. Check-in process was quick, and Peter was on hand to answer any questions we had. The breakfast options were plentiful, and there was a lovely pub a short distance away for evening meals/drinks. Can highly recommend for those wanting to stay in and around the Peak District.

Just lovely

We stayed at the farmhouse because we were attending a wedding at the hotel 2mins away- on arrival we were greeted by Peter, friendly and welcoming, a working dairy farm so fresh milk in the room, a good selection of teas and complimentary biscuits.
Mini fridge in the room with complimentary water.
Continual breakfast offered or a 5min walk hotel if you want a hot breakfast

Excellent stay at this lovely farmhouse

I don't mind admitting that when I saw the reviews of this property, I didn't really think they could all be true. But it makes such a difference having such a welcoming host. Our host was fantastic. Such a difference from a lockbox and a code. He met us at the car, helped us unload, took our suitcase upstairs and there was nothing that was too much trouble for him. The property is very clean, the bed is very comfortable and the supplies of tea and coffee are ample, also a supply of green tea and peppermint tea and biscuits. You don't often get that with most hotels or b&bs. I would have liked to have stayed for breakfast and commented on the breakfast but unfortunately we had other plans for breakfast. I'm sure it would have been lovely though. The property itself is a farmhouse and is really characteristic especially being located on a farm or next to. Just a 10 to 15 minute uber drive into Derby city centre. We will definitely be back.

Peter is a wonderful host and very interesting person. We got talking to him on various subjects very quickly. There is a massive collection of pianos in the house. Unfortunately we did not have the opportunity to watch Peter play music.
I would highly recommend the place if you like country side but not far from restaurants and walks.

I booked with Peter as I was attending a party at the close by Farmhouse venue. My room was beautifully clean and very comfortable. As the weather was inclement Peter very kindly offered to drop me up to the Farmhouse which is just a few minutes away. However the real favour was when he offered to then collect me at 1.20am in the morning! As a single woman visiting an unknown area I can't tell you how welcome and kind this was. It is unlikely a taxi would have agreed to do a 5 minute trip. I can't say enough about Peter and his team. Such a warm welcome and a very comfortable stay. Thank you so much.

Disappointed

The house was lovely and the hosts were great. The only down side of the stay and the house was the smell of smoke that went through the whole house and was even on the towels and dressing gowns. As a non smoker it was something i couldn't get over. It's a real shame as we would have loved to stay again.

Unbeknown to me there are two hotels in Mackworth with similar names and I booked this hotel in error. Hidden down a country lane, this hotel is a gem. I was welcomed by Peter and Mark to their home. Emerald suite (where i stayed) felt like home from home. The property is located in a quiet area and adjoins a dairy farm. Highly recommended and will be stay here in the future.

Non smokers avoid!

We woke up to our room smelling of smoke. A sore throat from it too...! All of our clothes ended up smelling of cigarette smoke because the owner smoked downstairs! Very frustrating and will end up with some expensive dry cleaning bill for my suits!

Lovely old farmhouse. Great hosts.
Good breakfast. I hear their dinners are excellent, although I didn't eat there.
Bed was comfy for me, although some might find it a little soft.
Bathroom was shared and down the hall, but they have plans to put in an en-suite in the future.
Location is close to the centre of Derby, but surrounded by countryside. The turn off the main road is very hard to see - it is opposite the Mundy Arms. If you miss it, like I did, the next road loops back and is a little easier to find.
