Indeed it is more like being at home than at a B & B! The full English breakfast is excellent. The house is well-positioned for both a stay in Derby and as a base for exploring the wonderful Derbyshire countryside. We would recommend it wholeheartedly. Paul & Gail.

The stars aligned and YES, I had a reservation (restaurant is open only 4 nights/week). Its tucked away on back roads near the River Trent. We arrived early and took a stroll for a couple hours around the river. Upon our return, we were immediately led to a perfectly cozy, quaint room. Outdoor patio seating, indoor seating area, cold water, fantastic tea & coffee, with fresh milk in the room were waiting along with a hot shower and plush towels. We were so comfortable, we were disappointed that we had to rush off for meetings. We returned for our 9pm dinner reservation. We arrived 15 minutes early for a cocktail. And then we were led to the table for our culinary adventure to begin. I have been to 2 star Michelin restaurant, Melisse and 3 star Michelin restaurant Per Se and each restaurant offers a unique experience. Sat Bains was elegant, yet casual and the only one to offer a room that was commensurate with the dining experience. Thus, its been our favorite experience. We opted for the 7 course tasting menu and added Duck Egg and Wine Pairings. The 7 courses included Scallop, Deer, Royal Kidney, Grouse, Chocolate and Blackcurrant. The wine pairings were a global experience, as well, with wines from Germany, Australia, Hungary, Uruguay, Argentina, New Zealand and California. Its always a challenge with an evening like this to not "tap out." We barely made it through, but loved the ability to schlepp to the comfort of our room. But it doesn't end there! In the morning, an incredible breakfast is provided in the atrium. Fresh orange juice, the BEST yogurt I had ever eaten, etc. After breakfast, I just wanted to go back to sleep, but alas, back to work. Finally, ALL staff was friendly, accommodating and we would love to return. An extraordinary experience.

Thanks to Daniel Patterson and Coi, I have now been exposed to the great cooking of Sat Bains. Like…read morehis counterpart in SF, the seaonality and local focus of ingredients yields magic when combined with his creative combinations and technique. -Oxtail in mushroom ketchup, served with a sous-vide duck egg and shaved porcinis. Apparently the ketchup is of 1700s historical recipes brought back by Heston Blumenthal . LIke a Worcestershire sauce, it melded with the beef and egg, paired with Radikon 'Oslavje' from Friuli. -Brassicas, radishes, flowers, charred onion ash, and smoked Hollandaise. A signature off of his tasting menu, it was surprising that this was served after the protein but then the smoked elements with the ash maybe strong enough to mask the complexity of the former mushroom ketchup. I think I'd make a UK trip for the Olympics next year as an excuse to come and try more of his fare.

We stayed here just before returning to Germany for the New Year. It was very comfy and cosy…read more(eventually) and the dogs were no problem. Generally I found it good value for money, not cheap, but with a nice comfy four poster bed (which Ninja found very comfy - see photo), tea and coffee on hand, and its own parking it was not bad. Unfortunately it lost half a star for not having the heating on before we arrived (it was brass monkey weather) and another half for not getting into the corners and behind the fittings with the hoover (something I've noticed happening more and more in Britain) people do look you know! It was great fun to watch the chickens and the big fat turkey strut his stuff in the garden (he survived Xmas I hope he had the same luck with New Year). The breakfast was very generous. Thick cut bacon with delicious butcher style sausages and not a baked bean in sight. The only downside was the ever changing bread, from a bakery style loaf (yummy) to a Warburtons sliced (yucky), it was never the same from day to day.

What a gorgeous little gem in the heart of Nottinghamshire. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. A…read morequirky B&B in the small village of Cotgrave, in a beautiful old house with wooden beams and old fireplaces. Paul and Susie, who run the place, are lovely. They greeted us warmly on arrival and were very chatty over breakfast. They clearly love what they do! Really nice rooms - delightfully comfy beds and tea/coffee facilities in the rooms. Ours didn't have its own bathroom, but we knew that on booking and didn't mind. It was a lovely bathroom down the hallway! One of the highlights of the place is the little farm outside. There's a dove hut, bee hives, a turkey and chickens. You can buy a pot of honey to take home! Amazing award-winning breakfast to top off the stay. Homemade bread, really tasty sausages and bacon, and lots of fresh fruit and yoghurt. We didn't want to leave! There's a few pubs within walking distant although we came back a bit tipsy at 11pm and got told off for giggling, so be respectful

Fries are okay. This restaurant mainly caters to people playing golf that might want a snack. It is absolutely not a destination location by any means, doesn't have the quality of food required to make a trip up to Horsley. I would describe this restaurant as "good enough I guess". If there's nothing else and you are starving, it will do. The view of the grounds is better than the sandwiches in the restaurant. The staff is nice though.

Although bar staff can be less than friendly, I actually really like it here, it's quiet without being dead, and the views of the golf course and surrounding countryside are lovely - very relaxing for a drink after work on a summer's evening.

There are not sufficient words to describe how wonderful Saint Anne's house is. We opted to spend…read moreour wedding anniversary with them, and I'm afraid no other lodging will ever compare. I am writing this on my phone because I am so excited to share with the world this wonderful place. Let's start with the location. peacefully located outside of Nottingham but not so far away as to make it difficult to get there, the village and St. Anne's grounds are something out of a fairy tale. Meticulously and skillfully kept, the garden is a peaceful and beautiful place almost not of this world. The home is lovely, with all of the amenities one could hope for and then some. My favorite place in the house is probably the snug, where we got to sit and sip drinks in front of a real fire on very comfy furnishings. My dear husband even fell asleep on accident there. Our room was Hollyhock, an incredibly spacious and well appointed space with a lovely view of the church across the way. We even got to hear the bells one morning (dont worry they wont wake you, they were rung in the late morning). However, the best part of Saint Anne's is Janeen, Chris, and Hamish the Westie dog. This little dream of a family went above and beyond to make our trip memorable and comfortable. Easy to say the succeeded. I don't have the words to express how grateful we are for them driving us around and providing the largest breakfast I've ever seen in my life and a delicious candle light dinner for our anniversary, in addition to giving us advice on how best to spend our time (their suggestions were just right for our interests). They are lovely folk to get to know and we are privileged to have been able to spend what now feels like a woefully insufficient amount of time with them. Not to mention their accommodation pricing is a bargain! So, in summation, bring lots of time to spend, an extra stomach to fit all the food, and your best doggie pets with you and come stay at St. Anne's. you won't regret it at all. My only regret was only getting two nights there.

Easy walk form the main town, good sized room with ensuite, ridiculously comfy bed with a plethora of extras like home made flapjack style biccies in a tin (these were a South African version) and fresh coffee and teas on a tray in the room. The breakfast was the best thing, with a Veggie and Vegan option, as well as Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon, and scrambled egg with a secret ingredient. I was blown away! Mrs Atkinson was a hostess with the mostest, having a chat to all the guests over breakfast, but they couldn'y have been more attentive. £60 a night for 2 in a room, £50 for me on my ownsome including the yummy brekkie. I was sooooo stuffed I didn't mind the dodgy lunch at the training venue! I walked up High Tor while I was there, and down to Matlock Bath and the Heights of Abraham. About an hour and half all told. Matlock isn't a big place, but it is canny enough. This week (3rd to 7th August) is the Bakewell Show, so watch out for queues on the roads.

During a recent trip to Nottingham, I stayed at the Mercure. I'd used yelp (of course) to search…read morethe area prior to the trip and came across this place. The pictures were ok and the price was too so I decided to stay here. I was booked into one of their suites and wasn't let down at all. The room was really spacious, with a really nice, large bed, a large living area and nice en suite bathroom. Small touches like a nespresso machine and complimentary soft drinks were in the room. The room was in really good condition, very clean, light and had really nice decor. (see the pictures) The staff were also really friendly and helpful. I will definitely come back and stay here. The location in the middle of town is ideal! Great hotel, great city!

I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. I took my…read morehusband here as a treat for his birthday along with tickets to see Guns N Roses at the Capital FM Arena. I had mentioned my husband's birthday to the staff as I asked them to have a bottle of wine waiting for us upon arrival, which they were more than happy to accommodate, and they also wrote him a little card along with some complimentary shortbread cakes and vouchers for two free drinks at the hotel bar. Such attention to detail and going out of their way to make our stay a good one was incredible, especially as we were only there for one night. I paid extra and went for a large executive room (shown in the photos I uploaded Room 201) at first glance it didn't look like you got a whole lot extra, but there is more space in the room, the bed is HUGE and one of the most comfortable night's sleeps I have ever had, and the shower was powerful and big enough for two ;) Despite being in the city centre, the noise level was minimal and the staff were friendly and helpful no matter what time of day, night or early morning we spoke to them! Breakfast was of good quality and had a lot of variety to choose from delicious all round. Would recommend and if I venture Nottingham way again, I will definitely be staying here!
