The Pilsley Inn - Chatsworth

All the staff were lovely and more than helpful, the room was so clean and had little touches that made it feel special; tea's and coffee's biscuits. The breakfast that was included in the price was brilliant as well

This is a charming inn that perfectly blends old world charm with modern appointments. Gorgeous room with four poster bed, sitting area and amazing bathroom with a soaking tub and rain head shower. Clean and beautifully decorated. Even includes some books to read. Rooms has actual keys and steep stairs but accessible first floor rooms are available. Power adapters (for non UK) a must as no USB charging in room. Lovely restaurant and pub with great food and drink selection. Highly recommend for a quiet getaway. Very close to Chatsworth House.

We all had the steak pie again as it’s made with top quality chunks of steak, absolutely delicious, going back again next week

Maybe it was an off day but we didn’t have a great experience here. We had calamari which tasted like the oil it had been fried in needed changing and the other food was underwhelming. Sauces were requested and then forgotten and we were seated in a room which directly opens into the disabled toilet so we were treated to a view of the toilet as we ate our food while the door was opened.

A very patchy experience: Lovely pub and garden, welcoming and knowledgeable staff. My husband's meat dish was excellent he said. BUT our first course of trout was TINY, with far too strong a sauce with delicate fish. And my salad was DISGRACEFUL for the price: boring, minimal, overdressed with bought strong dressing. The cheese was very good indeed: imaginative, tasty and well kept. My advice: Only go if you are a meat eater, or extreme cheese lover. If vegan all you can eat are the veg sides.

Stayed overnight - very comfortable room . Arrived early due to attending a lunch elsewhere - Andi and her colleagues were extremely helpful in providing our room to enable us to change Popped in to the bar in the evening - the atmosphere was very pleasant and the dishes that we witnessed were well presented The quality of the English breakfast was excellent The staff were very friendly in all departments We look forward to returning in early ‘27 Many thanks to Victoria and her team

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay here. We stayed in the Paxton which beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and equipped with everything we needed - fridge kettle, hairdryer, radio, fan. The bed was comfortable, and we slept well. The small patio area was an added bonus. We ate dinner and breakfast both of which we enjoyed. Staff were friendly, welcoming and professional. Location is great with access to beautiful countryside and of course Chatsworth House. We’d a really relaxing stay and would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.

We traveled all the way from the United States for a very special occasion — our daughter's engagement at Chatsworth House — and The Pilsley Inn made the trip even more memorable. What a find! The rooms were spacious, beautifully charming, and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was lovely too, a great way to start each morning. But what really won us over was the location: just a short distance from Chatsworth Estate, which was essential for us since we don't drive in the UK. We actually spent our first few nights at The Cavendish Hotel on the estate itself, which came with high expectations — but honestly, The Pilsley Inn impressed us more, and at a better price point. It had warmth and character that felt genuinely special rather than just luxurious. We've already decided that Chatsworth will become a regular travel destination for our family, and The Pilsley Inn will absolutely be our home base every time. Highly recommend to any Americans visiting this stunning part of the English countryside!
