NEWLY reopened in the UK last year, The Hide Hotel is one for the families who love the great outdoors.
Here is everything you need to know
Where is The Hide Hotel?
Right up in the hills on the edge of Chatsworth Estate in Chesterfield lies this The Hide Hotel.
You’ll most likely need a car to get there although there is a bus stop outside that connects to Chatsworth and Bakewell.
What is the hotel like?
The thick stone-walled hotel is complete with dog and boot washing facilities, a roaring log fire in its restaurant and a tasty local pint for walkers to reward themselves with after a ramble in the Peaks.
The views across the moorland are breathtaking, and while the building is 200 years old, it was given a complete refurb last year, so all the furnishings look shiny and new.
What are the rooms like?
All neutral tones with cosy throws strewn over the beds, rooms at The Hide Hotel are comfortable and inviting.
You can choose from double, triple, quad, or like us a bunk room, where a family of four could happily stay in the king size beds and very cute cabins.
Rooms cost from £79 per night including breakfast. See here.
What is there to eat and drink at the hotel?
There’s a great restaurant focusing on big plates of ribs, brisket, burgers and more.
They also offer a terrific range of stone baked pizzas and the cooked breakfasts are worth waking up for.
For something more refined, The Beeley Inn, also owned by the Chatsworth Estate, is well worth a visit.
Here we enjoyed whipped goats cheese with balsamic beetroot, and local lamb saddle with hispi cabbage.
What else is there to do there?
There’s a footpath out of the back door that leads directly to Chatsworth House (albeit via a 9km walk), where guests can book multi-entry tickets for their stay.
The Hide is also right at the entrance to The Peak District National Park which has amazing rambles for all abilities.
You’ll find a handy walking guide in every bedroom, and the staff are super knowledgeable and inspired us to climb the nearby snow topped Mam Tor, an unforgettable experience.
Is the hotel family friendly?
Yes, there are four-person rooms with bunk beds and king beds, so perfect for families, although kids re an extra £15 a night.
They also have everything else from high chairs to cots, and a play area in the restaurant with toys and games.
The hotel team are also on hand to recommend family-friendly activities.
is it accessible?
The hotel has accessible rooms, with wide entry bathrooms as well.
