We had a lovely stay here. The house was lovely and we enjoyed hanging out in the lounge in the evening. Comfy beds and a wonderful breakfast. She made the kids feel welcome and had a high chair ready for the baby. Thank you.

A very relaxing and peaceful stay. I booked this at the last minute due to attending a course in Hartington. What a find! Everything was simply superb. Warm and friendly, delicious food, in a quiet part of Derbyshire. The room itself was lovely and cozy with everything I needed. The little extras like the cold water in the fridge in the hallway was a really lovely extra touch. I will definitely be returning with my husband to explore the area and sample some more of the yummy homemade food.

A beautiful setting and a gorgeous house. Naomi was so friendly and gave us a lovely afternoon tea with homemade cakes on arrival, followed by a light supper in the guests drawing room in front of a roaring fire. Breakfast was also fabulous - loved the homemade granola! All in all a fantastic start to our walking holiday!

Stanshope Hall was a lovely place. I did a long distance hike and needed accommodation in this area. In fact Stanshope Hall was the only available option for me that night. Naomi told me she wouldn't be there that day and warned me she wouldn't be able to let me in before 7PM, but she was kind enough to accommodate me. I didn't regret it. It was the best stay of my 8-day trip. The house and the atmosphere were fantastic, the living room and breakfast room were beautifully set up. Breakfast was great, so I had a wonderful stay.

Just a splendid tranquil stay at a beautiful country retreat. Seeing a humming bird moth on n the Hall gardens just was the cherry on the cake. Hotel service was friendly and the breakfast was just smashing. You are really catered for here.

Winter Warmer stay A lovely stay as always. Georgina was most welcoming on arrival with homemade shortbread and tea. We stayed in the King room with beautiful views over the garden. Breakfast was cooked to your choice, I can recommend the homemade Lemon curd, delicious. Little touches like fruit and biscuits in the room were appreciated. We hope to come back soon!

Would stay again in a heartbeat! Initially wondered what we had booked as we were the only guests! (It is mid week in the rain) but what an absolute treat of a place! Georgina was so welcoming & warm, trays of tea and delicious biscuits on arrival and what a treat to have the whole place pretty much to ourselves! Stanshope hall is ideally located for our walk. Local pubs were friendly with delicious food.
A perfect stay with a perfect breakfast to seal the deal. We will be back and we shall be referring to ourselves & Lord Matthew & Lady Michelle of Stanshope Manor here on in! Thank you x

Exceptional in every way. This hotel was exceptional. From the moment we entered, it was far beyond our expectations. The place itself is well maintained and extremely clean, with room service daily. The owner Naomi was really kind. She made us welcome from the moment we arrived. She greeted us with a wonderful smile, gave my husband and I an amazing pot of tea and home made flapjacks and fennel shortbread biscuits. The employees Alison and Lydia were professional, down to earth, attentive and had excellent communication skills, seeing to your every need. The view from the windows is magnificent. The breakfast was outstanding. You could not honestly wish for more. There is a car park too with plenty of space. There are numerous nearby scenic trails to go hiking for those who love the outdoors. Do Not Hesitate booking this hotel. It will not disappoint in any way.
Thank you Naomi for such a beautiful stay. We will definitely be back this year.

Quirky Bed & breakfast in the peak district Stanshope Hall is a quirky B&B. Our bedroom was huge, with a very comfortable bed, lovely sofa & excellent en-suite bathroom. The breakfasts were excellent to a very good standard and kept us going until dinner. The bar menu was great and really affordable. I had a lovely bottle of French rose for just £14! The welcoming tea & cakes were a suprise and so yummy. We had the evening supper one night which comprised of home made soup, a variety of open sandwiches and a selection of cakes. It was very filling and just what we needed, as you don’t always need a three course meal. We haven’t left yet, but are already discussing returning again next year!
