Dog & Partridge by Chef & Brewer Collection

What guests think

Dog & Partridge by Chef & Brewer Collection is a characterful, historic inn in Tutbury where many guests praise the friendly, helpful staff, enjoyable breakfasts and dinners, and quirky, often spacious rooms that provide comfortable stays at good value.

Access can be challenging for some, with uneven stairs, no lift to upper floors, and slanted floors in places. Cleanliness is generally good but mixed, with occasional reports of tired bathrooms or dirty areas needing refurbishment. Several guests found mattresses and pillows firm, and Wi‑Fi can be weak in places. Expect a welcoming, traditional inn with charm and a few age-related quirks.

The hotel is a very old building and therefore no lift and for us in a top floor room quite a lot of stairs. Room was a good size with double bed, desk, small table and two chairs, wardrobe with iron and ironing board. Tea and coffee making facilities, hairdrier and fridge. Free wi-fi good TV. Reasonable sized en-suite with over-bath shower. Mismatched bedside lights; not important but could improve the image. There is airccon but we didnt need it. Good choice of breakfast; continental or cooked to order. Bar is popular and quite busy but service was good. Ate on Saturday night in restaurant area. Good standard chef and brewer pub food, pleasant and efficient waiting staff and not overpriced. Big car park at rear of hotel. In general an enjoyable stay; had one minor issue quickly resolved when brought to managers attention.

Excellent bar downstairs which was very clean and looked very attractive. Room itself was quirky and large. Had everything needed , warm , comfortable although only thing I didn’t care for was the pillows. A little too hard for me but everybody is different We didn’t eat in hotel as we were meeting with friends but looked very nice .

This is an older property but as long as you know what to expect, all is well. We were in a room right at the top, so it was quieter, but the climb would not suit everyone. The staff are very good. Breakfast has various hot and cold options and eveything we've tried has been fresh and tasty. We also had a good dinner here one evening. We'd definitely stay here again.

Excellent. Friendly staff. Very clean premises. I was surprised by the Expedia site which quoted breakfast for the standard room at £10.50 each but for the Courtyard room £18 each. Embarrassing because the hotel menu quotes £10.50!!!!

Mark , his wife and team create a friendly atmosphere where nothing is too much of a problem. My only criticism would be the standard of the croissants and danish pastries. they never looked fresh and appetising, the croissants were very bready, I will let you off the fruit selection because the whole country suffers from that!!!

Fascinating pub with an amazing history. Had I been aware. Of the stairs being old and interesting, I might have asked for a ground floor room, but I’m very glad I didn’t know as it was a lovely room. Staff were lovely and very helpful and friendly, my gluten free diet was catered for and absolutely no complaints about anything. 12/10. Thank you for a lovely stay
