It belongs to the old village hotel, but the room and traffic are convenient, the price is affordable, and the surrounding environment is good.

I loved this hotel. The decor was tasteful, staff was extremely friendly. Rooms were cosy and clean. Had some drinks and snacks at their bar and the cocktails were really nice. Staff were attentive and polite. The dinner menu in the restaurant was really nice too. Breakfast became busy and I think the staff were struggling to keep up because I had to wait a while before glasses were stocked to get juice and milk was replenished for my tea. My only gripe about the room was lack of electrical sockets near the bedside tables to barge the phones. Would definitely stay here again.

A well located very comfortable Hotel. Staff were always friendly and helpful. Well laid out lounge next to Reception with a bar and where breakfast was served and also had a snooker table. A nice touch which in the present economic situation, many Hotels would have ceased doing, was the daily chocolate mints

Relaxing hotel, must have car to stay

We stayed in one of your beautiful rooms - Whitley Neil - last night for a dinner, bed and breakfast getaway and what a brilliant time we had! The food was incredible (stunning flavour and presentation!) the room was warm and so well equipped (you've literally thought of everything from corkscrew to hairdryer!) but most of all we loved the incredible welcome. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived and only wish we could have stayed longer, we both said we're booking two nights next time! Alex there aren't many pub owners like yourself these days, who work so hard alongside the team of staff whilst still lighting up the room with banter and a smile. Hugh is also a huge credit to your pub and hotel. He greeted us with a lovely and friendly manner on arrival and later asked us after dinner, ”Have you been well looked after?” That question summed up our stay. No corny scripted service, just a beautifully genuine experience of great food, great service and a great sleep - what more can you want? Thanks guys, we'll be back!

My recent stay at Ringwood Hall in Chesterfield was, unfortunately, an absolute disappointment from start to finish. The hotel suffered from poor communication and a noticeable lack of front-of-house staff. For the price, the experience was nowhere near acceptable, with glaringly poor customer service and a complete lack of attention to detail. One of the most misleading aspects was the so-called ”all-inclusive” package. The menu was dismal, with very few options and a steak priced at £30 that was incredibly chewy and unpleasant. Worse still, the menu didn’t change, so the same underwhelming choices were all that was offered. The restaurant staff were clearly overworked, with many of them appearing very young and inexperienced. Although they tried their best, they were simply not equipped to handle the demands of discerning guests. Cleanliness was another major issue. I found old wax earplugs on the floor in my room upon arrival, and despite room service coming in, they were still there afterward. That’s just unacceptable for any hotel, especially one that markets itself as a quality establishment. On top of that, the room itself was freezing cold, and the iron and hairdryer provided were outdated and barely functional. While the property might have a unique charm, the lack of modern facilities was inexcusable. I also experienced an unacceptable delay at dinner. I had booked a table for 6 pm, but wasn’t served until 7:30 pm, with little to no explanation or apology from the staff. All in all, Ringwood Hall fell far below even basic expectations. I would not stay here again and certainly do not recommend it to anyone looking for a pleasant or professional experience.

It feels like a family hotel, the owner and his wife live on one end of the house and the passengers live on the other side. The whole atmosphere of the hotel is very warm, the room is clean and tidy, and the decoration is beautiful. It really makes you feel at home. We lived in a family room on the second floor, and there was a small courtyard behind it. The children were happy to pile two snowmen behind. The location of the hotel itself is right next to the road. But it is not a main road, so it is not noisy. The main attractions in the windy area of Beckwell, the town of Aidensol, in the Richmond Bedroom Manor are very close, within 15 minutes by car. The slight fly in the ointment is that there are no other shops around except a Robin Hood Club restaurant that it operates.
