Stayed 1 night

When I arrived went to the bar but it was busy and couldn’t see anywhere else to check in so I said hello to a member of staff but they completely ignored me and carried on working. The Check in was abit weird only gave my first name to the person behind the bar and that seemed to be enough, the room itself was spot on being clean and with a nice little view of the church however no milk for any hot drinks but we had biscuits so guess they was more important, no shower gel or shampoo in the shower and with being near nothing we had to go without, no WiFi was provided or stated anywhere as the only bit of writing we had in the room was about buying some titanic mugs for £9.95. Shower was on the cold side and not sure what other toilets was like but ours was so so loud you definitely wouldn’t wanna flush that in the night. However the bed was comfortable and even though some things were wrong the main reason you stay somewhere is to feel safe and have a good sleep and we had both so would I stay here again? Probably not but them things above aren’t the massive just feel this review will help someone else be better prepared

A few problems, no milk for tea/coffee,no seating just the bed.complimentary biscuits were open and one missing, bed was comfy could do with a shelf or similar in shower cubicle to put shower gel and shampoo.

I always try to give a balanced review but was honestly overall disappointed with our stay at Poets Corner. Our room appeared uncleaned and dusty which was only confirmed further with two items of rubbish under the bed, which were not ours, which made me question of the floor had even been cleaned prior to our stay.

Is what it is, a room above a pub. Could do with a refresh and an update. Room wasn’t clean and the bed was quite uncomfortable. Annoyingly the local church bell rings on the hour every hour, so not a peaceful night sleep. Food menu was okay however half of it was sold out. Worked for what we needed as a stay, roof over head and somewhere to sleep for 1 night. Recommend if your looking for a cheap stay south of the Peak District with convenient walks and connections to other villages and towns within 10-30 minute.
