Excellent service as soon as I arrived at The Barrel Inn. All the staff I came into contact with were friendly and extremely helpful. From check in, breakfast, bar staff and waiting on. Food was wonderful. Apart from the above what most impressed was when I was out for a walk, Oliver contacted me to see if myself and my husband needed a reservation for that evening. Above and beyond as far as I'm concerned, looking after their residents. As I know from the evening before the pub would have been extremely busy. Well done The Barrel Inn.

There were no windows in the room. The bed was comfy and a good shower, but it was dark and airless. We stayed for dinner which was very average but the breakfast was good. And the views outside are wonderful. Not great value for money considering how much we paid.

If you’re in the area, stay here, without a doubt

We had a wonderful stay at The Barrel inn. They were accommodating to our potential late arrival, the room was spotless, cosy and fresh. The amazing view at sunset was stunning and although we were too late to eat dinner there, the breakfast was delicious. We had a brilliant night sleep and great hot showers the following morning. This was a recommendation from a friend and so worth it, we’ll definitely be back.

We stayed during a major snowstorm that shut down the roads and left the Inn under-staffed: but the food was still excellent, the service was wonderful, and the staff went out of their way to ensure we had an excellent stay, The chef is brilliant and the owners are both very friendly and very helpful. An excellent experience despite the adverse weather conditions.

Superb for travelling to Bakewell or Buxton. The views of the five counties lives up to its name!! Incredible big thumbs up. Look forward to coming back. Beautiful all around xx

Great views and perfect stay

The location was just amazing. So beautiful the views and the pub attached was our favorite of our trip. Amazing food, good beer and an excellent and comfortable vibe. The room was fine. No view (skylights) and bathroom very basic. Plus we were next to parking lot so heard some early morning deliveries. BUT I’d stay there again and do recommend as the location is the best! (If you like quiet, remote,kind of out of the way places…on a very quiet road, but one that has been traveled since at least the 900’s!!

Lovely place to stay

So nice to have somewhere to eat and stay that doesn't allow dogs. Husband has allergies and it is becoming more difficult to find places that are dog free. Room was excellent and spacious. Evening meal was perfect and a very good breakfast. Wonderful views. Perfect place to stay.

A real treat.

I had a lovely weekend at The Barrel Inn. The room was spacious, clean and well appointed. The food both at breakfast and in the evening was delightful. The staff were welcoming, which as a single traveler, is always appreciated. The location was ideal for walking with spectacular views. I recommend this establishment without reservation and will definitely return.
