The restaurant in the pub and staff were very good. The outside area around the pub and rooms needs tiding up and the room needs some TLC as well as a good clean, cobwebs in corners, tv taking off wall and bracket which was left there covered in dirt and dust, just need some TLC

Our room was okay with two twin beds separated by a narrow aisle. Bathroom could stand an upgrade but was clean and adequate. At this fairly low price, lodging was good enough.

The duke of Wellington is an extremely good pub (great beer, food and atmosphere etc) but the rooms are something else! All are outside in the pub grounds, very roomy, spotlessly clean and so comfortable. Also olde-worldey atmosphere but very beautifully done with excellent modern facilities. I can’t praise this accommodation highly enough. It’s about 1/2 mile from Matlock town but no need to go into Matlock to eat as the extensive menu is very good value and includes a range of vegetarian meals which was fab for me. Thank you to the team at the Duke of Wellington, we will be back soon!

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was nice and clean (except for some high altitude spider webs 😝). Only criticisms were the pump / boiler / macerator / mechanical device that was ‘kicking in’ each hour or so for a couple of minutes (felt like we were on top of it) and Biffa collecting the glass recycling at 05:30 on a Bank Holiday Monday morning…😣

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities

Felt unsafe

Not everything fault of hotel however; electric hot water tap in bathroom spewing water, empty air freshner ledt plugged in. Would you put a lone female traveller on ground fllor with patio windows if other rooms available? No food available. Residents above extrenely bad banging shouting very very loudly throughout night. Shouting outside at 1am, thought a fight was going to start felt very scared and vulnerable on ground floor. Would NOT recommend if lone traveller. Needed a safe place as mum had just passed away, this place not ot.

Staff were really friendly at arrival and breakfast, Steph really took care of us during our stay. The food both at dinner and breakfast was good pub food and definitely needed after a long trip. The room itself is basic but very clean, additional items such as tv, kettle, tea,coffee milk, shampoo/conditioner, soap and towels were all provided. The rooms are in converted stables next to the pub and we didnt really hear any noise from the pub or other guests so managed to get a good nights sleep. Around the accommodation was a lovely little garden with a little pond that looks well looked after it nice to view in the morning. We have a car so the steep hill up to the pub wasn't an issue but other guests would need to consider this if planning to walk into Matlock. Overall, a really lovely stay and we would be happy to stay here again.
