Devonshire Arms

We visited the pub tonight (Monday 23rd June) and was greated by Eloise who was extremely polite and welcoming, our order was taken by Barbs who was also extremely friendly and helpful as were the other staff and the food was well priced and lovely size portions, I highly recommend the Donut, ice cream with Baileys sauce, all the food was fresh and prepared well and we would definitely return, thank you Eloise and Barbs for your hospitality 👍

Our stay was very disappointing, the room was very dirty with cobwebs and grubby surfaces. The bathroom was a disgrace with old toothpaste stains on the toothpaste holder and a general lack of cleaning. We had dinner at the property and whilst my wife enjoyed her sea bass risotto my gammon steak was extremely salty. Towards the end of the dinner rain started to come in through the roof, meaning we had to cut short our dinner. The comment that “it’s an old property what do you expect” was just not appropriate. Breakfast is placed in the room the day before it’s needed and just was not fresh. No breakfast was available in the dining room which was very strange. A cooked breakfast would have been good, but the option to have a fresh continental breakfast in the dining room would have been much better. Overall a very disappointing stay.

Beautiful rear garden wasn’t available

We had a lovely family meal and was made most welcome. I had booked on line but for some reason it had not worked but we popped in the day before to make sure all was ok and luckily they could still fit us in for our meal. The food was really homely and the steak pie was soooooo nice. The staff was friendly, great service, lovely food, everything you need after a lovely walk.

We visited the restaurant and enjoyed the Sunday lunch. There was plenty of meat and a lovely selection of vegetables. All served piping hot. The puds were delicious especially the sticky toffee.the service was friendly and prompt. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience.

Stunning location. The surrounding countryside is beautiful as is Hartington Village itself. The Devonshire Arms is the jewel in its crown. Excellent sized bedroom tastefully decorated.All mod cons TV, Fan , Armchair Tea/ coffee/Hot chocolate and posh biscuits.Comfortable bed and lovely plump pillows. Plenty of storage and spotlessly clean. Loads of fresh thick soft towels in the bathroom.Big walk in shower and endless hot water.Spotlessly clean. Friendly staff who remembered me from a previous visit a few months before which made me feel very important indeed. The food on the night was excellent although recommend you book as it was very busy. Worth it though.Considering it was so busy food arrived quickly and was piping hot and very tasty as well as very filling and reasonably priced. Plenty of on street parking so not sure what previous reviews moaning about. We arrived at a busy time in the village and found a space immediately. Some people don’t want to walk 50 yards! Bonus was it was all free. Can’t recommend enough. Ignor negative reviews some people are just so unfairly negative. Second visit and will definitely be going back.
