At Three Horseshoes Country Inn, travelers highlight friendly staff, tasty meals, scenic Peak District views, and relaxing spa sessions, while some note dated rooms, inconsistent breakfast quality, and occasional extra charges or access issues for certain facilities and mobility needs.
Room comfort and views vary, with some finding beds too soft or firm, limited outlooks, and maintenance snags, while others enjoy strong showers, jacuzzi baths, and scenic vistas. Weddings and other events can create late night noise. Expect a scenic country stay with well regarded dining and a popular spa; check room details and breakfast reviews to match your preferences.

Facilities
Spa facilities are popular and generally well run, but access often requires pre-booking and some features carry extra fees; a few note the hot tub temperature and the lift only covers part of the building. The bar is well stocked, parking is good, and the gardens/terrace offer pleasant views.

The reason rhat I haven't given this hotel five stars is that there were no usb charging points in the rooms, this is so easy to rectify. Also our room was on their third floor, the staff member suggested we use the lift, but this was a bit pointless as it only went up one level!

This hotel is very well-located for touring the Peaks District. It is easy for find, and it has good parking (always an issue in the UK). The only downside was the "spa." That is a term that is extremely elastic in its use; this hotel is really NOT a spa, if you consider the original meaning of the term - there is no hot spring, etc. What they have is an outdoor hot tub. The problem is that they charge five pounds per person to use the hot tub. That seems to be "nickel and dime-ing" the customer, to me. [That's an American term for petty over-charging.] I don't mind setting a schedule to use the hot tub, but to charge for a normal, outdoor hot tub I think is going too far.

The room was clean, well furnished and had a cozy feel. We would stay here again, however, there were some minor issues. The toilet flush ran continuously and was audible at night. The cover over the shower plughole was broken and the lead on the kettle was too short and had to be used on the floor. Also the mattress was too firm for us.

Food was delicious at dinner and breakfast with a good selection. Very nice location with great views of the roaches and lovely well kept gardens with plenty of outdoor comfy seating.

The staff in the bar and restaurant area were excellent, both courteous and efficient, The reception and housekeeping staff were neither, from being welcomed with a shortened version of my forename, which I am not known as, to allowing guests to hold doors open for them to allowing vacuums to continue running whilst away from them chatting. In the room whilst clean,the shower cubicle had seen better days, also the shower itself was an immersive one with horizontal shower heads, these did not work,the plug to the hairdryer was difficult to attach to the socket and then had a switch that had to be held down, that worked intermittently. Ours was a superior room on the ground floor and as a consequence had no view. The food was plentiful and excellent

Nice pub with a good restaurant and spa facilities. We paid for a superior room which was a disappointment. Unfortunately ours was an inner facing room which seem to look into the spa area. For privacy they have erected a fence literally 3 feet from the window so our view was of a fence screen. Not what we were expecting for a ‘superior’ room with a price supplement. As a superior room it has upgraded facilities mainly in the bathroom area. Ours was supposed to have a funky shower with multiple jets. Just a shame it didn’t work. Also the shower didn’t drain and there were lights in the bathroom that didn’t work. The television was old and dated and poor quality picture and cables hanging down the wall. Wouldn’t have taken much to add a cable tidy system when they revamped the rooms. Beware the bed is very very soft too so if you prefer a medium to harder mattress then this place may not be to your liking. We ate in the restaurant and the food was very good. Breakfast was typical buffet fare and perfectly acceptable. Overall a lovely area, great views from the garden terrace, clean and tidy but just a shame the room was a disappointment.

A lot bigger than i realised. It was a great suprise. Good size room, big shower room. Where the hotel shines is by doing all the simple thing right. - high pressure shower - 2 chairs in room - bowl of sweets - comfy king size bed - good quality pillows - good soundproofing - comfortable temp. - friendly, helpful staff - good quality, fresh breakfast I thoroughly enjoyed staying. My only slight criticism is that the otherwise extensive food menu only has two fish dishesand not as varied as the meat. Otherwise, food was really good and the service excellent.

Staff were lovely at reception providing recommendations for the area etc. The food was nice for the evening and breakfast was good - it’s hearty pub-style food. We stayed for our anniversary last weekend and despite stating this on the booking, this was not acknowledged Rooms are quite dated and the Friday night wedding guests disturbed our first night’s sleep until 4am, and a hen do was very noisy during the evening for our second evening (you could hear them in the restaurant from the spa). Appreciate it is wedding season but spoilt the trip somewhat. Spa access is not included or guaranteed for guests - so pre-booking in advance for this is essential.

Hotel was great, spa brilliant and the staff in the spa excellent. Howeve the bar staff stood around talking about goi g to a bbq after work while customers queued. None of them understood the hotels loyalty card, so list over 150 points because noone jnew the policy of their own card scheme. Should have had 1 bar for public use 1 bar for residents instead of free for all.

It was very enjoyable. Lovely hotel, staff were welcoming, friendly and very helpful. Room was extremely well appointed with everything we needed, and a very clean and nice en suite. Food was delicious at dinner and breakfast with a good selection. Very nice location with great views of the roaches and lovely well kept gardens with plenty of outdoor comfy seating.

Really nice place and would stay again but I would probably remember to book a room with a bigger bed 😂. We didn’t do the Spa but maybe next time. The restaurant was lovely and some amazing views overlooking the Peak District. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This hotel is very well-located for touring the Peaks District. It is easy for find, and it has good parking (always an issue in the UK). The only downside was the "spa." That is a term that is extremely elastic in its use; this hotel is really NOT a spa, if you consider the original meaning of the term - there is no hot spring, etc. What they have is an outdoor hot tub. The problem is that they charge five pounds per person to use the hot tub. That seems to be "nickel and dime-ing" the customer, to me. [That's an American term for petty over-charging.] I don't mind setting a schedule to use the hot tub, but to charge for a normal, outdoor hot tub I think is going too far.

Room was clean and a good size. The Reception team were really helpful and called ahead of my arrival to sort out a key for me as I was arriving after the reception closed. The room was hot, but this couldn't be helped with the heat wave, other than perhaps opening and ventilating the room before arrival. Shower and room facilities were good. The breakfast was good quality, the service staff were very grumpy though, and could have been more polite, given customers had just stayed a night after a heat wave in a non-air conditioned room.

Great location with stunning scenery. We enjoyed sitting on the outdoor terrace with drinks and wrap around scenery. We had a scrumptious meal in the traditional bar in the evening and were welcomed by wonderful friendly staff. 20 minutes drivecto Froghall station where we had a 2. 5 hr steam train ride theough more stunning scenery. Didnt use the spa but would recommend a return visit .
