The Devonshire Arms - Baslow

Fantastic food, wonderful ambiance, excellent location, and a great atmosphere! The staff were all amazing and incredibly friendly. I would highly recommend this place!

Beautiful, tasty eating in a beautiful atmosphere. fish cake and seabass were on the spot. comical waiter added the entertainment!

Never had a bad meal here, the menu is full of choice even for a fussy eater like me, and the food is always fantastic! I've also stayed over several times and all of the rooms are beautiful. The staff are great, always friendly and smiling and can't do enough to help you. Bar staff are well trained (great gin and tonics! and the wine list is very impressive and reasonably priced. As for the car park scheme, I've visited several times and struggled to park due to people abandoning their cars to go for walks in the area so I actually think it's a great idea. Not only is it completely understandable that the owners don't want to offer free parking for non-customers, it ensures parking is always available for paying guests. I'd much rather spend 30 seconds providing my car registration at the bar, with a drink in my hand, than 5 minutes driving round looking for a space because of non-customers taking advantage of a free car park! And as there are signs EVERYWHERE I don't understand how anyone can complain, to me it just shows the owners were quick to spot an issue with the car park and have addressed it quickly and easily! Keep up the good work guys and Happy New Year!

Excellent food and friendly staff. We ate twice at the Devonshire Arms, both times the food was great. We had a bit of a wait for our main courses but so what? We just chatted and had another drink while we waited. I'd rather have to wait a short while and the food be as good as it was than be served poor food quickly. The puddings are the best I've ever eaten in a restaurant. Whoever you have making your puddings they are worth their weight in gold. I am so used to puddings being taken from the freezer and microwaved so they are volcanically hot that it was a wonderful surprise to have puddings that had been created in house and were the perfect temperature to eat. They were also delicious. The starters and mains were great too, on our second night we ordered a mixture of starters and had them as a sort of buffet between us. Everything we had was well made and I would definitely eat it all again. We live around 2 hours away but are already planning to return so we can eat at the Devonshire Arms again.

Absolutely outstanding! The room was perfect, comfortable and nicely decorated. The staff went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and happy. The food was absolutely delicious in the evening and the breakfast was too. There was even a complimentary beer. I can't recommend it enough. We'll definitely be staying again.
