Fantastic little place

Lovely clean, comfortable room, slept like a log. Service in the bar/restaurant was superb. Got there just before the kitchen closed on a Sunday and nothing was too much trouble. Will 100% stay again.

Just an overnight stay at the canal inn and must say couldn't fault it whatsoever. We had evening meal and breakfast which was excellent. The room 06 was spotless and spacious. We would both highly recommend the canal inn to everyone and look forward to visiting again.

This is a lovely friendly pub with excellent staff. The locals were welcoming as well. The beer brewed on the premises was excellent as was the food. I can't fault our stay there. Plenty of parking at the pub now, with a new car park. Handy travel time to Critch, Matlock and the Peak District. Located on the side of a steep hill, so walking anywhere is a good bit of exercise!

Lovely little hide away!

We arrived a little later than planned but the staff were very welcoming and helpful. The room was lovely, very clean and lots of space. The evening meal and breakfast had great vegan options. I cannot thank the staff enough, a really lovely environment! A really lovely little hide away!

Great food, great service and high quality rooms!

Great food, great service. Now my second stay and will be returning. Very impressed with the young lad working there, he was fantastic. Checked us in, covered the bar (even put a shamrock in my Guinness!) and covered the kitchen for our dinner and breakfast the following morning. What a great asset he is!

Just staying at the newly renovated Canal Inn and got to say it’s one of the best value places I have ever stayed, beautiful appointed bedroom and bathroom and a quality freshly cooked breakfast for the same price of a bland generic hotel in a beautiful part of Derbyshire. 20 mins walk to the train station if your looking to go further a field to Matlock

One night stay

Staff friendly, room clean and comfortable. Would have been nice to have a chair to sit on instead of a stool. Lots of people in the bar downstairs but we couldn’t hear them.
