After a very long walk it was a real treat to arrive at the hotel. A pint outside looking at the amazing view was really special. Our room was small but clean, well equipped, comfortable & had a good shower. Everything we needed. The staff were really friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend.

We stayed two nights for a reunion of friends who graduated from university 50 years ago. The hotel is a traditional pub with four small but comfortable bedrooms and a terrific location with wonderful views across the Peak District. The second night was quiz night, so we fielded a team and came somewhere in the middle of the pack.
Lathkil is ideally located for many of the classic places in the Peaks, and for walking the fells. We spent the morning of our full day visiting the Magpie lead mine, and the afternoon at Chatsworth walking around the gardens.
The weather was sublime, and evening drinks outside the hotel looking across the fells were a highlight.

Lovely, lovely, little Lathkil. At first, we feared Google was taking us into the wilds of Derbyshire never to be seen again. How wrong we were; Lathkil, originally The Miner's Arms (1828), is a delightful, cosy, and beautifully done up gem. Views of the dales, and of grazing sheep. Easy access to walking trails. Good food. Friendly hosts. Beware: steep steps to the guest rooms. Would definitely revisit.

Our room had an en-suite, coffee making facilities, hair dryer and one heck of an awesome view of the dales. The best part for us both was that they had a bar, so we could venture out during the day and rewind with a few drinks with our dinner.

Hotel with a view.

We arrived earlier than our check in time, but this wasn't a problem, we had immediate access to our room. The room was on the small side, but as we didn't have full size suitcases it didn't matter. The 5* award is for being able to sit outside on a sunny evening, with a pint just looking at the stunning view, priceless. Dinner was good but a bit 'chips with everything'. All the staff we had dealings with were friendly and helpful. There are several walks available straight out of the hotel, the Lathkil dale riverside walk is fabulous. We would definitely stay there again.

Our room was to the back of the hotel so we didn’t benefit from the lovely view. It was clean, an ok size. The room needed a net or blind on the window as the car park was right outside (this is the only downfall really).
Oh, watch out for the extra step at the top of the stairs…..it may catch you out!!

The hotel is in a lovely location. The bedroom was a bit dated looking, but perfectly fine. The bathroom was modern and clean. My only concern is that the hotel took a pre-payment for the two night stay, which is still showing as pending in my bank, 48 hours after my return. I paid my bill in full on departure. We also returned from our dinner in Bakewell on the Saturday evening to find that the hotel was in darkness and locked up at 10.00pm, so no nightcap from the bar for us!

I didn’t like the way payment was ring fenced for the room, then they wanted to take full payment again before we left, leaving the ring fenced and total prices outstanding on my bank account. 3 days later and the payment is still showing as pending in my account.
I emailed about this, but haven’t received a reply
