Grouse & Claret Matlock by Marston's Inns

Lovely stay

Liked: Really nice rooms, very country style theme throughout. Staff were brilliant, good spacious room and large bathroom
Disliked: Due to the heat the room was very warm in the evening but appreciated the fan in the room to help. No English Breakfast tea in the room when we arrived but rectified!

Great place for a short...

Liked: Great location and friendly staff, well stocked bar and great food, comfortable and clean
Disliked: Nothing

A very convenient location. Good...

Liked: Good location near Matlock.
Disliked: I know Grouse wasn’t in season, but I would at least have expected Claret to be available.

Poor

Would definitely stay again.

Liked: Excellent. Lovely check in with a very helpful friendly man. Room clean and comfortable (and they'd already provided extra fans and opened windows as it was a hot day which was a lovely touch). Great bar and restaurant and great location. Loads of parking.
Disliked: Would be great if they automatically refilled coffee in the room, or provided enough for both nights, (we didn't ask for a room clean so understand why it wasn't done). A very minor point.

Good

Liked: The bed ,food
Disliked: Beer ,hot small room ,miserable fella on desk morning we left ,no air con ,window didn't open more than 5 inches ,mold on window.

Very good

Mostly good

Liked: Nice bright and clean room. Fan was supplied as it was very hot, as was the option of a top sheet to replace the duvet. Bed comfortable with quality linens and for a pub surprisingly quiet (although it is situated close to a busy road, but then I knew that when I booked). Service when checking in and at the bar a little slow but otherwise fine
Disliked: Ordered avocado and poached eggs on toast for breakfast. I'm coeliac and they confirmed it could be made gluten free. Pale, barely toasted bread without butter, plain sliced avocado and sunblush tomatoes arrived. Not very inspiring and not matching the mashed avocado with chilli flakes advertised. Slow breakfast service, but I think it was more down to the kitchen rather than the waiter

Fantastic location and very pleasant...

Liked: Breakfast and service was excellent. Very friendly staff asking how our day was and what we had planned.Room’s decor was nice and homely.
Disliked: The bathroom was a bit bare and floorboards were a bit uneven and dusty
