"A truly lovely weekend. The house was everything we could wish for. We lacked for nothing. The children had a wonderful time - the grown-ups dined very well for our Ruby Wedding"

"This is our 4th year gathering- and as always we had the most joyful, happy time! House beautiful as ever. We love the new decoration on the top floor. The attention to detail always fantastic!"

"As soon as we unlocked the door, we knew that we were in for a wonderful few days at Derwent house. The house was warm and welcoming, and the decor absolutely amazing! We've stayed in many holiday cottages and houses, but none so beautiful as Derwent house. With such a perfect place to stay and amazing walks we didn't venture out in cars once!"

“A fabulous venue to celebrate a "low key" 30th birthday. Even though I wasn't really allowed to do any cooking, I could fully appreciate how well stocked the kitchen and dining room were. Had 3 nights of fabulous sleep in extremely comfy beds, and the whole house and additional touches were enjoyed by everyone. A Truly special venue, location and celebration. Thank you.”

"From North and South we came, and met at Derwent House...a great venue for an 'extended family' holiday. The house is fantastic-extremely comfortable, well equipped and tastefully restored. It has been a super home from home for us. We have had a thoroughly enjoyable week exploring the area and would love to return. Thank you!"

"Our 3rd year, and it just gets better. Cycled on the Monsal Trail, electric bike was very popular. Chatsworth Christmas fair was excellent. Thanks"
