Lumb Farm in Amber Valley

Went to this venue for a bikers weekend festival. The Staff could not be more helpful. Spotlessly clean and fantastic venue. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. My only suggestion, would be a golf buggy shuttle to the bus stop at the end of the drive, but that's cos I'm idle lol.

Very nice place to celebrate a birthday 🎂

Together with a large number of bikers we camped for a long weekend. However, the camp site was like a bog, mud everywhere. Generally the service was good except bar staff picking up full glasses at the rim of the glass, obviously either the landlord/landlady doesn't know the basic rules, or doesn't care??? To lighten you, you and your staff hold the bottom of the glass and the customer has the top. Having said this, we all enjoyed the place.

Room(s) were spacious and seemed clean. A bit dated. Staff was friendly. Somehow the whole ambience had something strange. Hard to describe

Visited Lumb Farm after a Former Colleague's funeral..The Staff were excellent and very accommodating..

At a meal and meeting there every week. Very well looked after and food good. Hold events which are well catered for. .

Attended a wake here in June and was lovely service and great facilities, thank you! Lots of parking spaces and nice location.

We had a family wedding on 15th October 2022 we were very dissapointed that some personal items seem to have gone missing and no one cares. The wedding was really nice everything went well and the food was great, however can't say the same for breakfast on Sunday it was a shambles. The rooms leave a lot to be desired room A avoid the door is dangerous I injured my wrist on it, advised the lady behind the bar but didn't seem to care just told me to push my shoulder against it Which is not very sensible. Not all rooms had kettles. Had to ask for clean towels ready for Sunday had to wait until nearly midnight, same for toilet rolls. One saving grace is that they have 3 very good attentive members of staff. Thank you Courtney, Angie and the lovely guy from Saturdays breakfast you all deserve a medal for your attention to detail and friendliness on the big day.

I wrote a superb review in 2014 for this place which is well situated. On this latest visit I regret I am unable to do the same. We had afternoon tea. It was very easily the worst afternoon tea I've ever had anywhere and we only really got over it by joking about it. The sandwiches were stale, especially the brown bread and they had huge crusts on. Everywhere else cuts them off when served on a layered plate. They comprised dry tasteless grated cheap cheese , egg with no cress scraped on, cheap tasteless tuna and very very thin cheap sweaty ham. Terrible. The accompaniment was a cereal bowl of salad for 7 people (that would have just about worked as a side salad for one person) a burnt microscopic sausage roll, a QUARTER of a mini pork pie (tasteless) and a 2" square piece of soggy quiche. This came with a small bowl of crisps - probably one packet of cheap crisps among 7 adults. The cakes were just greeted with laughter. Cheap mini cakes, some iced slices had been cut into 3 ! The chocolate Swiss roll was sliced so thin it had clearly been shaped off, it didn't even hold together when lifted off the plate - my piece was 5mm wide. The china pot of tea was very good. No scones with scream and jam, no macarons, no anything really. Lumb Farm you need to get your act together. The fillings were cheap, nasty and tasteless and the whole thing was a joke. Absolutely awful . I've never been anywhere where it's been done as badly as this.

My family enjoyed Sunday lunch , beef and lamb , vegetables perfect , amazing Very good service , lovely staff , Thank you so much

No member of staff wearing a face covering when serving. Difficult to believe they all have exemption certificates do they know there is now legislation for them to do so. Did not feel at all safe to eat here. Went to Christmas luncheon with a group of friends. Lumb Farm informed before hand there was two on our table gluten intolerant. They conveniently forgot when serving mince pies, said they had not been informed anyone was gluten intolerant even though we showed them the proof in writing. My main meal was the very last to be served, they were serving desert on an adjoining table of friends; and was served on a cold plate stone cold not edible. When complained returning an almost full plate no response. Service was very slow and cannot say servers at all helpful

Two of us went for afternoon tea recently and it was lovely! A variety of tastysandwiches, sausage rolls with a bowl of salad and one of crisps, and then assorted cakes and scones with jam and cream. All served on a pretty mix of china crockery. The service was friendly and efficient, nothing seemed too much trouble. Plenty of tea in lovely teapots, I think the refills could have been endless! Personally, I prefer a pot of hot water too as tea soon becomes strong but I'm sure, if I'd asked, this would not have been a problem. Lumb Farm is in a great position with smashing views and plenty of car parking. I'd certainly recommend the afternoon tea at Lumb Farm, it's great value and the staff are brilliant. Also, we felt very safe, having our temperatures taken on arrival, plenty of hand sanitisers around and staff wearing masks and following social distancing measures.

Well what can I say But what an excellent experience from start to finish the owner greeted us on arrival with such a warm welcome And explained to us there Covid-19 restrictions were.from taking our Temperature on arrival and all staff in PPE at all times keeping there selves safe and more importantly all of us safe was there main priority.And for the food It was delicious. We will be visiting there again and would highly recommend for any occasion with stunning views friendly staff and impeccable foodThank you once again for making our Daughter and son in-laws Day so special. Mark & Sharon

Took the family for a sunday lunch celebration. Very impressive safety measures re covid. Staff lovely and the 3 course Sunday lunch was superb. The lamb shank & beef were both succulent & the mash is the best. Veg cooked perfectly & if you don't have enough they are happy to bring you more. Very happy with our visit and would recommend.

Had a lovely meal here tonight. Had sausage, mash in a large Yorkshire with veg. It was delicious. The mash was the best I’ve ever tasted and extra gravy was brought out. The sausages were also really nice and not the cheap style some places serve. For pudding I had a warm choc fudge cake with ice cream, again beautiful. I saw other people’s meals being brought out and they all looked good! The staff have gone to gold standard levels regarding Covid. When places first started opening I expected restaurants to constantly sanitise, change their aprons and I haven’t seen it until tonight. It was very clean/ hygienic and they checked my temp before we went in, which I was impressed with. I felt very reassured that with their understanding of food hygiene and their professional approach that the food prepared would have been done so in immaculate conditions. The staff were so lovely and were working really hard as they were implementing all the hygiene and cross contamination protocols. Really enjoyed it, thank you. We will be back!

called in for evening meal on tuesday, the restaraunt was quite busy, the food and service were excellent, however.. only 1 member of staff covering the whole of the front of house, serving food, pouring drinks, seating people,and getting them booked in, taking orders, clearing and cleaning tables and trying to sort guests bills at the same time. the poor woman was totally rushed off her feet to the point she was sweating buckets( and who wouldnt be,) how she managed to get all diners accomodated and all orders served correctly, politely,professionaly and on time, while still taking time to ask all guests if everything was ok and /or needed is a credit to the owners, poor management on behalf of staffing ??and i have never seen bar staff have to leave a bar to serve meals anywhere i have previously dined and not a good idea cross contamination wise especially in todays climate, although the covid measures were spot on, temp and details taken upon entry, masks worn when serving ,clearing food and the staff member constantly sanitised her hands. The dinning area is very clean and friendly and excellent quality food. bar area a little grubby and outdated, but service was a marvel from the lone member of staff. well done she!!. i will return in the future if not to see if the poor woman is still alive.

First time visiting here, after reading reviews it sounded promising for a nice evening dinner, the location is also lovely and was very hopeful! however although the staff were lovely and quite attentive the food and atmosphere did let it down. The music is so loud whilst your eating it’s almost annoying and you can’t hear properly to have a conversation it wasn’t particularly cheerful music either. We had scampi which it said so on the menu which was meant to come with chips garden peas and tarter sauce, what actually came out was battered prawns in some kinda of weird spicy coating with mushy peas and no tarter sauce, the only positive was the nice chips! We had to ask for the sauce which just came in a sachet and wasn’t particularly enjoyable. My mum had lamb shank which she enjoyed and the meat was succulent but was crammed in a small bowl with mash and a small separate bowl of veg which was very overcooked would have been better on a plate with more room! We went whilst it was 50% off which was a bonus because we definitely wouldn’t have paid the full price. I hate to be negative but did expect more and better quality.

Took the wife here today for a Christmas party dinner 3 course and drinks Service excellent lovely location and plenty of parking available Disabled friendly

Wow... what a gem find!!Tranquil beautiful Derbyshire countryside, quality ingredients (tasted all homemade), delightful staff all topped with excellent value for money.The place is spotless and lovely decor.I’ve been for a few afternoon teas at some pretty respectable places and this place is up there.Good selection of sandwiches, salad bowl, crisps, scones and the most indulgence of small cakes to make any feel guilty for the rest of the day!!We will certainly be back....!!!!!

Christmas party today food good as well as excellent although slow service Updated interior since last visit but not my taste

Took a party of 55 for a two course Christmas meal of which 27 have a learning disability. The meal was very good and the staff are very helpful. All meals were served quickly and all were nice and hot and fresh tasting. We come here regularly as a group and the staff know most of our members with a learning disability which makes it nice for them. AVALD reg charity 1101422

Went for a charity party night featuring 2 love bands. The place was exceptionally busy in fact too busy to get in the room in which the bands were performing. The clientele were spread around several rooms with no view of the bands.The food on offer, mainly snacks was good and at a reasonable price.

Our first visit to Lumb Farm and we weren’t disappointed :) Starters and desserts were nice (soup and chicken goujons) but the mains were by far the best. I had the roast beef with seasonal veg - the beef was so tender! And it came with the tastiest mash potatoes I’ve ever had in a restaurant :) My partner had the veggie Wellington again with seasonal veg. It was nice to see the veggie came with its own pot of veggie gravy. We were happy to find the veggie menu at Lumb Farm has 7/8 options which is by far one of the best we have seen in the local pubs/restaurants. We normally struggle finding a good veggie offering but Lumb Farm have great options! Even a few vegan ones too :) I will definitely be back for a roast dinner!

We stayed here for a night, and it was just amazing! The friendliest staff I've ever come across, I think! The place was lovely - both the room we stayed at, the eating area/restaurant and the farm area was so beautiful and peaceful. Definitely recommend!

Just come back from an afternoon tea at Lumb Farm. I highly recommend. We all really enjoyed it. A fantastic selection of sandwiches, cakes, crisps, sausage rolls all freshly made and the scones with jam and cream are amazing. We had plentiful and as much rea or coffee as you wish. The staff were all lovely and so attentive. Thank you so much.

What a fantastic place for a wedding venue . The staff were brilliant and couldn’t do enough for everyone , The food for our lunch was fantastic . The night do was great as well the buffet just perfect . A lot of our family stayed in their accommodation which was great , plenty of room and really up to date with great facilities. I would highly recommend Lumb Farm as a wedding venue or any other corporate event. Just perfect

If you are in the area you can’t do better than staying here. Rooms nice and large with comfy beds and newly finished bathrooms. Restaurant/bar is a mix of all sorts but has a charm about it. Best thing is the staff however, super accommodating and very friendly!!

Cannot imagine spending New Years Eve anywhere else. We were welcomed as friends, and guided to our beautifully decorated reserved table, exactly as in oprevious years. As my husband has mobility problems they kindly gave us the same table as in other years by the door aiding his access to and from the room, which was very much appreciated. Excellent food, disco, ambiance, and service, making it a wonderful evening for the family. I thank them for their hard work and hospitality. Will definitely be returning next year!

I stayed overnight following an excellent social event held at Lumb Farm Country Club. The location was excellent. It was very easy to find, there is lots of parking available, the rooms were spotless clean and tidy, & the food was superb. The staff were all super friendly and helpful & the bar was very well stocked, with great beer, wine, soft drinks, and spirits all available at great prices. I will definitely revisit & stay here again in future. What a superb place to visit and stay. Don’t hesitate to book, I guarantee you will be impressed by everything.

What a fantastic venue and a great time was had by all. The staff were excellent and the quality of food was superb. A number of guests stayed at the hotel and all said that the rooms were very good and a great breakfast. The owners have done a fabulous job and I wish them all the best for the future and I would certainly recommend this venue for any function. You won’t be disappointed . Thanks

Well excellent once again . Went for father's day today and wasn't disappointed had a fabulous time food was brilliant as usual and can't fault Kendal's staff at all they are amazing can't do enough for you . Weather was amazing too so was able to go outside and enjoy the wonderful surroundings . Kids also enjoyed playing out side and feeding the donkeys had a fab time. Would recommend to anyone really good friendly welcome is shared with everyone .

Spent 4 nights here whilst in the area for work. Lumb farm has more of a country pub feel rather than a hotel. The staff are really friendly and make you fell like your part of the family. The food is hearty pub food that’s cooked well and very affordable.

We had our Pearl Wedding Anniversary here and they did us proud.

Had a lovely afternoon tea at Lumb Farm today. Sandwiches and cake plentiful and freshly made. So nice to have a lovely selection of everything. Could not fault the service and tea. Really nice to see bone china used as well. Will certainly re visit. I have had a number of afternoon teas and I can thoroughly recommend it.

Lumb Farm was a very handy place for us to stay overnight on a holiday trip to Yorkshire. The room (No 4) was fine apart from one thing, which was the smell from the drain in the bathroom/wet room. Several guests have mentioned this in the past, and so it really needs sorting. The breakfast was good, and the staff very friendly and helpful. All in all, it was a pleasant over-nighter at reasonable cost. I would be happy to stay here again - especially if/when the drain in Room 4 is cleaned out!.

This hotel is abit out of the way but is self contained. The hotel consists of a number of rooms adjacent to the main building which are well appointed with everything you need. The staff are extremely friendly and very helpful. The bar has a good selection of beers and larger. The evening meal is wholesome food albeit a bit limited menu. The only negative I can say is that the breakfast, which is included doesn’t start till 7:30. However I was offered a take away which was brilliant. All in all if you want a quite stay this is a brilliant location .

This place was about mile from town, but was nice quiet.

Could have stayed in ANY of the travel lodges , premier inns around this area , Lamb farm was, cheaper at the time , breakfast included, and a fabulous setting !! , by the way breakfast included! Look out for this ! Breakfast was awesome ! Home cooked with care ! And u can choose your time . That in is self was worth the visit !

Me and my sisters came here with my mum for afternoon tea as a mothers day treat, by far the best afternoon tea we have all had! Plenty of food, not too fussy sandwiches and freshly baked scones were delicious!

Booked it by chance, and was very pleased with everything.

Perfect Spring Evening .....staff not too busy to care and be polite and very helpful an EXCELLENT evening bHOT / COLD Buffet was served , which was the ICING ON THE CAKE >>>>THANKYOU

I stayed in B. Nice space clean and tidy. Wi-Fi (no extra cost). I will stay here again if I'm in the same area. Friendly staff (duck). One of the staff members even gave me a lift into town as the taxi wait was an hour. Breakfast was good and the ale was good also. Thank you to all the staff

Went to lumb farm for a family gathering after a very sad funeral. The pub is in a lovely surround and very quiet the staff are lovely however the food choice is almost none existent compared to the advertised menu and food quality was poor for the over inflated prices we had to pay. The soft drinks were underfilled and in lipstick stained glasses. Very sorry but we won't be coming back

I checked the website with my son on 2 Feb 2018, and looked at the restaurant menu. We saw various options which we liked the look of, and phoned up to see if we needed to book. Third attempt, somebody answered, and I was told we need not book. Arrived about 6.45pm or 7.00pm. Place was totally empty. Eventually a staff member appeared, served a very poor pint of beer and a soft drink and gave us the menu. It was an even more basic menu than the website version. There was no specials board, as advertised. None of the options we wanted on the website were on the menu. It was cold inside, the staff member (I think she was the bar maid/receptionist/cook) had disappeared. It felt like the Marie Celeste. We left and dined elsewhere.

what a great New year's eve party. massive thanks to kendle, Ollie and staff. see again soon paddy and Jo

We have to travel to Derbyshire fairly often and, having found Lumb Farm Hotel it is now our Hotel of choice for every time we have to stay over. The rooms are all bungalow style and the comfort and cleanliness are as good as we have found anywhere. We were so impressed with the food that we booked for ourselves and our family for Christmas dinner, which certainly did not disappoint. The management and staff are all very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

Surroundings and food took me back to the 70's and 80's prawn cocktail, breaded mushrooms plain food

My wife and I stayed from Sunday to Thursday last week. Upon arrival we were greeted with a friendly smile and all through our stay it was friendly and welcoming.

We stayed there because we attended a function here. This review just addresses the bed and breakfast issues.

Me alojé una noche y me aparece una bienvenida cálida y donde mi habitación estaba ubicada. Estaba muy limpio, y bien por encima de la media, que tamaño era preciosa y tranquila. La habitación tenía instalaciones para preparar té y café y productos de ducha y secador de pelo, etc. Me alojaría de nuevo cuando en esta zona. También había wifi gratis. El personal hizo todo muy fácil.

Magnífico, fresco, limpio. El mejor desayuno alrededor - preparado a pedido, en lugar de pegados bajo lámparas de calor! El único problema fue apurando en nuestra reserva almuerzo tarde un domingo. Me avisaron de que la comida se detiene en 4:00 pm los domingos, pero...

Excelente bien nuevamente. Fuimos para el día de padre hoy y no me decepcionó tenía una comida genial como siempre fue genial y no me puedo quejar en absoluto de kendal Personal son increíbles no puedo hacer más por ti. El tiempo también era increíble...

Moderno, limpio, alojamiento tipo motel con un montón de aparcamiento. Los desayunos muy sustancial y de buena calidad. Una base ideal para visitar la zona y a un precio muy razonable. Tiene un bar, salón y restaurante. Podría hacer con una cómoda silla extra en las habitaciones, tal vez. Personal de lo más servicial y algunos a dar un paseo en el campo desde el lugar como un paseo de tren en desuso.

Conocí los miembros de la familia para una escapada juntos/estancia de una noche en la granja de lumb. Era un lugar muy acogedor, en una magnífica ubicación. El personal era extremadamente amable y no podría haber sido más servicial, a pesar de que tenía un fin de semana de boda ocupados en el mismo día. Tuvimos una comida de menú en el restaurante - comida más que suficiente, y no tengo ninguna queja. Incluso fuimos y encima para proporcionar más de un miembro de la familia natillas - su favorito! Gracias a todo el personal por hacer que nuestra estancia fuera memorable. Lo recomiendo y espero volver de nuevo.

Lumb Farm is absolutely amazing . My daughter and new son in law had her wedding there on April 8th . What a fabulous job Kendall, Emma and staff did they did everything from dressing tables and chairs , catering for all the guests . Andy the chef is wonderful, food is presented beautifully does just how you like it and always hot. Staff where dressed in colour to match wedding colours what a lovely touch and so friendly and helpful. Could not fault it. Would advise anyone to go ahead and take a look at what they do for your wedding absolutely brilliant. Keep up the good work you are all wonderful .

A great little B&B; it is advertised as a country club, which is probably overly ambitious, but that's the closest I came to a negative. I picked it rather than the chain hotel because it offered a proper breakfast and was only about £15 more expensive. Arrived mid afternoon and staff where really friendly. Lots of parking is always a plus. Rooms are decently sized and clean. Wasn't a massive issue for me, as the bar was practically empty on the night I stayed, but the rooms are near to the main bar area. If there's a reception on or busy night in the bar, you'll know it because any noise in the car park seems to go right through the rooms. The food in the restaurant/ bar is good and reasonably priced. Staff again happy to go out of their way for customers. I had an early meeting and staff agreed for me to have breakfast early (07:15, rather than 07:30 which is normally the earliest they do). Breakfast in the morning was decent, so all in all very positive. I'd stay there again if back in the area.

well where do i start? WHAT AN AMAZING PLACE..me and my family attend lumb farm every birthday, mothers day, fathers day, Christmas, new year and for Sunday lunch..All staff dressed very smart, very polite, always smiling,make you feel welcome every time you go in ..Food is AMAZING as always, always lovely hot food, always a variety of what to eat on the menus especially for gluten free people (my sister is gluten free) always a variety of foods she can always have and with other foods as well...and food is always presented professionally on your plate..FAST service.. lumb farm is always clean and tidy and everything is well organised..very welcoming place, always helping their customers..all staff have so much respect for every one..I LOVE LUMB FARM..They are ALL absolute STARS a+++++++++++++++++++ lumb farm keep going you are doing a BRILLIANT JOB <3 <3 <3

I stayed at Lumb Farm while away on business and greeted with a warm and helpful welcome. My room was spotlessly clean, well appointed and comfortable. The food in the restaurant was lovely, the menu was limited but the food was excellent, as was the service. I'll definitely use Lumb Farm again!

Always greeted with warm and friendly staff, great service with a smile. Lots of choice on the menu and nothing too much trouble. Lovely interior in the restaurant and Bistro. Will be back!!

We came for a meal with approximately 45 people who had also chosen their menu in advance. I am a vegetarian and my meal was dreadful. The dried up breaded mushroom starter with shop-bought mayonnaise was not good. There was a tiny bit of mushroom under the heavy deep fried coating. My main course of mushroom risottohad not flavour and did not appear to have any seasoning. The best thing about the meal was the dessert. It was not a cheap meal - £22 and if it hadn't have been a function I would have complained.

We visited here on a Sunday for lunch and to be fair it was a very good Sunday lunch indeed, nice modern room, friendly service, plenty of car parking, good beers on draft, very nice meat, the vegetables were plentiful and hot, good gravy and the starters and sweet were again very good. We will definitely come back, quite impressed.

Stayed for 1 night while in the area on business. Very impressed with the quality and cleanliness of the accommodation and the high level of service. Ate dinner and breakfast in the restaurant and both were freshly cooked and plentiful with warm, friendly service. Room was spotless and very quiet as the accommodation is in a separate block. Will definitely recommend and stay again when back in the area.

Visited quite a few times for Sunday Lunch with family. Can't fault it, good value, friendly staff and excellent Sunday Lunch.

I stayed here for work recently and could not be more pleased with my stay. I stayed in one of the chalet rooms at the rear of the hotel, which was very modern, clean and quiet. The bed was super comfortable and I think I had the best sleep that I'd had in a long time. Lumb Farm is a family run hotel and it immediately has a very homely feel to it. The staff are very friendly and were always very helpful in booking taxis and making my stay comfortable. I ate in the restaurant in the evenings and the food was amazing. Really great, hearty food that tasted fresh and the portion sizes are extremely generous. If I'm ever up here for work again, I'd have no hesitation in staying here again and recommending it to others. I stay in A LOT of hotels up and down the UK and abroad. Lumb Farm ranks as one of my favourites.

Stopped overnight between meetings. Recommended by a colleague - mainly for the food.The rooms are new and clean. Everything one needs is there. Woken during the night by a braying donkey?!? - But hey it's part of a farm? Warm rooms, good tv and plentiful food - of excellent quality.

Yet again, another excellent Sunday lunch. The choice of meals on the set menu is so varied, and with a wide range of roasts. The dessert choice is just as good. Good selection of seasonal vegetables.The staff who waited on our table were friendly, polite and nothing was too much trouble for them. So,Complements to the excellent chef...... 5 stars.

I attended a sit down meal at this venue followed by a Blondie tribute act. I did not take any pictures for which I apologise. The Meal was attended by 39 people. We had a warm welcome from the manageress in the bar area and exchanged pleasantries. We were then shown info a dining area and seated. The Meal I chose was Tomato Soup starters, which had cream in and was delicious along with a small cob of bread.The main was, Turkey with sprouts carrots peas parsnips roast and mashed potatoes. This was excellent, the turkey was perfect and the parsnips were delicious. The rest of the food was of a very high quality but the turkey and parsnips stood out. I had Christmas pudding as my desert and that was also up to expectations and this was washed down by a cup of coffee.I had a superb night amongst friends old and new, the staff worked exceptionally hard and did so in a friendly, professional manner. Their efforts were very much appreciated.I also saw a Blondie Tribute Act that I have since found out was unconnected with this establishment but she was excellent and besides her Blondie numbers was able to perform several other stars.Thank you all for a very pleasant experience.Kind Regards

This was our third time at Lumb Farm for our Christmas Lunch and didn't,t disappoint.The food was excellent and the staff couldn't,t do enough to help in every way. Thank you Lumb Farm, we will be back next year. Geoff Thompson. Treasurer Amber Valley Camcorder Club

on pulling up to what the website advertises as an upmarket country club my thoughts are we are not in the country and this looks more like a pubthe room was in a purpose built block opposite the car park making it noisythe décor was cheap and tacky with scratchy furnishings and white melamine furniture all topped with plastic sheetingshower was large but the pressure and shower disappointingand the food was microwave pub grubso very over pricednot coming back

We went as a club function, 38 people in total. The layout of the place and the decor is superb, but the star attraction is the food. We have been here for the past 3 club Christmas lunch and each visit has been superb, The presentation,quality and taste of the food has to be tried to really appreciate how good it is. Will be going again and next years booking is not far away.

The family (26) have had a Christmas lunch to celebrate my grandsons 21st birthday. The meal was excellent . The service was very good to say that there was 2 more big parties and the usual Sunday lunches.Highly recommend

What an absolutely amazing day not only for us but all our guests too...everybody commented on the amazing atmosphere, the food, the organisation, the ceremony. The wedding breakfast was absolutely gorgeous and everybody loved it!! One of my aunties are still talking about our day now and trust me...she is very hard to please. Our day was made special by all the staff and feel that they are our friends....thank you for such a truly unforgettable day x

Was there yesterday for the Co-op Christmas meal and had a wonderful time. The meal I chose was mushrooms with mayo, turkey with all the trimmings followed by Christmas pudding and custard. Everything was excellent and the pudding was devine. All the staff were very attentive and efficient with the service and nothing was too much trouble for them - well done and thank you. Wished I had another visit to look forward to.

Stayed here for two nights.The room was spotlessly clean & nicely decorated. Beds were comfortable. Shower hot. Towels provided smelt clean & very fresh.The staff were really friendly throughout our stay.

Just been to lumb farm for Sunday lunch had a great lunch the staff were friendly and professional and helpful as always. They where really busy with a full restaurant and a large party in function room. We were looked after from start to finish. Over the last years we've been there several time and always had a great meal and such a warm welcome both from staff and owner . Really shocked at the really bad negative review must have gone to lumb farm in a parallel world ! Would like to thank all the staff for a lovely meal out. Patrick Joanne and family.

What a fantastic day from start to finish everything was perfect. Angela and her army of staff were fantastic the wedding breakfast was spot on and the room beautifully set out everything was well cooked and hot we were not rushed between courses everybody commented on how professional the staff were. The evening buffet was plentiful and very well presented all in all the day was perfect the guest rooms are clean large and very comfortable. Well done Angela and thank you so much for making the day perfect for our son and his beautiful wife. Angela also got my husband out of a sticky situation he had forgotten his cufflinks she produced a pair within a few minutes. At Lumb Farm you arrive a guest but leave part of the family. Thanks once again our dear friend Angela x

Excellent value, super food, pleasant service, we couldn't fault it & will come again for her 98th! You even pack the puddings up to take home & did me a doggy bag too! Keep up the good work

Amazing food and good service. Nothing was too much trouble. A great afternoon spent celebrating a big birthday with all the family and it was absolutely perfect.Thanks for all your hard work.

We have just spent a night here for a wedding reception, on arrival we were greeted at the reception & swiftly booked in & taken to our room. The staff are very efficient & friendly. The room was very spacious with a comfortable bed & plenty of storage space & also a good quality flat screen television. The bathroom had a good shower & nice clean fresh fluffy towels & shower mat towels. Hairdryer provided & also tea & coffee making facilities in the room. Breakfast we chose the full English breakfast which included fruit juice, tea coffee, cereals & toast. Excellent service, breakfast was cooked to perfection & we really enjoyed it. We found Lumb Farm Country Club to be very clean & well presented, our room was excellent as were all the facilities & we would highly recommend this place. Will we return for another visit, yes definitely in the not too distant future. Thank you for a lovely visit, Bev & Theresa, Nottinghamshire.

Thank you to everyone at Lumb Farm especially Angie for making our wedding day perfect. The staff amazing. The food WOW. I can't say a big enough thank you. All our family and friends couldn't fault anything at all. I would recommend a visit, you won't be disappointed. Thank you

WOW what an amazing experience from start to finish !Superb food 3 courses for £15 with tea or coffee what more can you wantLoads of freshly home cooked food Beautiful setting and even rooms if you wanted to stay overStaff very helpful and friendlyWe shall be returning Thank you Angela and staff xxxx

I hate to criticise this place as it really is a great place to stay and the staff are lovely but the food wasn't good on this occasion. The starter was a shared platter for 2 between 4 of us. Very plentiful and even the 4 of us couldn't eat it all but that was because it was all fried. Fried chicken, fried mushrooms, fried onion rings, wedges plus breads in bread sticks and cheese garlic bread. The steak deal is good - two for $25 but all our steaks were tough and again it included a bed of fried onion rings and mushrooms with chips. They were also catering for a 21st on the day and warned us we may have a wait as there was only one chef on but that wasn't a problem. We didn't wait too long and the staff kept us entertained. In short brilliant staff but shame about the food. Maybe next time will be different?

I live local to lumb farm and hadn't been for years, to be honest I didn't even know it did food... After a couple of recommendations we tried it for Sunday lunch and wow !!Don't be out of by £15 X 3 courses, we just had a main course and it was £7.95 an absolute bargain, lots of meat, to many vegetables - it was gorgeousWe sat in the bistro which is way nicer than the restaurant, it's not the best venue as it is dark inside, but the staff and food make up for this !!Great service and good prices ..Lovely setting with donkeys and car park has been resurfaced so much better than it wasHave some cute bedrooms , more bb style than a hotelHighly recommended - get some local advertising done and a decent website , and market 1 course Sunday lunch rather than the full 3 courses and more locals will come

Having recently moved into the area we decided to celebrate my wife's 40th birthday at Lumb Farm and were by no means disappointed! Firstly, booking. This was easy and pressure free. Our entourage of 2 x 2 year olds needing high chairs, a child of 9, 2 x foody-fuss pots, an aunt who can only eat child's portions, an elderly gentleman with health issues and his wife, with similar issues were no difficulty to the team at this restaurant. The Dog at Pentrich was our alternative option and their anti-child attitude rang alarm bells immediately. They won't be getting our custom in a hurry. Anyway, back to Lumb Farm. We took our own cake, no problem to them; we were greeted by a lovely team of staff who were skilled and attentive all evening. A set menu at £15 was varied and fantastic value. The quality of cooking is very high and the portions incredible! The choice of vegetables overwhelming (in a good way).. It was a shame to have to leave any of it! A brilliant evening all round for us and a recommendation from us as high as we can credit. We shall be returning without a doubt.

We stayed for 2 nights while my Mother was in hospital in Derby. We needed a quiet, calming location with good access to the main route into Derby. Lumb Farm was ideal.The room had a level access shower with disability features and what appeared to be new carpets and furniture. The room was spacious and the bed and armchair comfortable.Nothing was too much trouble and we had lovely fresh fruit salad followed by a rather large full English breakfast on our first morning. The following day we requested a smaller breakfast and some yogurt to accompany the fruit. This is preordered the evening before and works well as both breakfasts were lovely.We had one evening meal and can vouch that the home made steak and ale pie was delicious.We were made very comfortable and welcome, the staff all very attentive and the rest of the guests so quiet many left before we awoke.

Lovely hot food, very friendly staff, lovely spacious rooms.Only two things about rooms - pull curtains over blinds so light does not come in early, and with the bathroom door, a little door stop would be brilliant as every time the bathroom door opens it swings back and bangs on the wall or the person sitting at the dressing table, apart from this we had a lovely stay.

Stayed here for 2 nights. Clean, fresh spacious room. The large wetroom was lovely and the shower was great.Just a couple of thing realy let the place down. The door to the bathroom/wetroom would not close properly and the window in the door let in so much light in the morning we barely slept past 6 am, so take an eyemask with you! The duvet cover had weird ruffly things on which was quite uncomfortable to sleep on! The reception/bar seemed to be quite disorganised. The breakfast was very nice, with a good selection to choose from.Staff very very helpful and pleasant, but with a bit more organisation and a coule of tweaks to the accommodation it could have a fab stay.

I chose steak and it was cooked beautifully. Thew roasted veg were fantastic and the chef changed chips for rice for me (watching the calories). This was part of a stay for the evening also and that was lovely too.I thoroughly recommend the place - very clean and the staff were very caring.I would definitely stay again and would happily eat here again.

Not much to say apart from only come here if you want a lot (and I mean A LOT) of food for your money. The Sunday set menu is average with every sort of potato served and over cooked vegetables. Yes the cauliflower cheese was nice.Personally I think the amount of food served is a disgrace and the management need to realise that every dish of food sent back is their money being through in the bin. When we told the waiting staff there was too much food said they get that all the time and laughed.Also, am not a fan on being sat on the same tables for Sunday lunch that the wedding party the night before had been (with paper table clothes and tiny napkins).So in summary, poor service (caused by terrible management and lack of understanding of basic food service), average food and poor surroundings. Badly needs new management and an overhaul.

Our visit for Sunday lunch was certainly an experience, unfortunately for all the wrong reasons. The calamity of errors started when we ordered drinks at the bar. The girl serving tried to fit a small bottle of rose wine into an even smaller glass. Needless to say the glass could not even be picked up, something that did not occur to the bar staff who offered no solution. We took it upon ourselves to go to our table, collect another wine glass and pour some of the overflowing wine into it.We made our way to our table. Five/ten minutes later, none of the staff had been over so we had to go and ask for the menus. We ordered very soon after and then waited in excess of thirty minutes for our starters to arrive. The garlic mushrooms had clearly been deep fried from frozen and the rustic bread roll served with the soup was far from rustic! We were barely able to take a breathe before our mains were served. To say we had enough food to feed a small village in Africa would be an understatement. Plates came piled high, followed by six huge bowls of vegetables, potatoes four ways and cauliflower cheese. I asked for the chicken pie with potatoes instead of chips. I got chicken pie with chips and enough roast potatoes for four people. The frozen peas arrived.....frozen! The potatoes looked like they had been served to at least two tables before us. The roast lamb and beef were nice but the amount of food on the table was so overwhelming (we even had to use a nearby windowsill to house some of the dishes).Once we'd all finished (barely scratching the surface of the food served), we waited half an hour for any of the staff to come to our table. Having been sat at the table for almost two hours at this point, none of us were in the mood for having pudding or tea and coffee (mainly because we wanted to get home before it was dark!)We asked for the bill and were appalled that only 50p per person would be taken off the £15 set menu if we didn't have the pudding. In the end, we took our puddings home in polystyrene boxes. The main problem with this restaurant is that there was clearly no one in charge or anyone who cared enough to take control. The young staff were doing what they thought they should be doing and nothing more. Tables around us were left uncleared and customers were left to their own devices for far too long. We gave feedback to the 'manager' on the portion sizes as we were leaving but she seemed to be very blinkered and it was clear that nothing would change. Her response of "we don't want anyone to go hungry" confirmed this. I would challenge anyone to leave Lumb Farm feeling hungry! It would be so much better and more profitable(!) to half the vegetable and potato serving sizes and serve more on request.Yes, it was busy. But it could be twice as busy if someone took control and improved the customer experience. Overall, a disappointing lunch and we will not be visiting again.

Went with husband for a two night break.Extremely friendly and helpful staff and food first class.Birthday party on the Saturday night so the staff suggested we go in first.Very good accommodation.Would go again if in the area.

Our second visit food outstanding .we both had lamb shank....fantastic. ...loads of meat and veg...large portions cooked to perfection. ..very very polite staff.....should be busier than it is

We stayed in this B&B last weekend. The room was very clean and quite spacious. At the beginning it was a bit chilly but we turned the heating on and it warmed up quickly. The bed is quite small. If you are higher than 1,95 you might struggle. Breakfast was included. Food was nice. It's not a buffet. On arrival you have to fill in the form stating what you'd like to have for breakfast. Check out is 10:30 latest.

Joined a birthday celebration and were given the private dining area overlooking the fields which was lovely. Most of us ordered the sunday roast which was absolutely gorgeous. Lots of vegetables with very generous portions and delicious cauliflower cheese. A nice selection of tasty puddings too and can recommend the apple pie. If you are looking for a venue for a group of people it is perfect and very well priced for the high quality of food.

Went to this restaurant Mothering Sunday. Never been before. A good selection on the Mothering Sunday menu. Friendly staff, both restaurant and bar. The food was very tasty and plenty of it. We all liked the variety of fresh vegetables and potatoes. It was good to have them served in dishes so that we could help ourselves. We will go back as we would like to try the full menu options.

Sunday roast , you better be hungry when you visit Lumb Farm as the portions are generous, good quality food in nice surroundings at a reasonable price , what more could you want.

Well couldn't praise Angela and her team for making our family meal special.There was 11 of us our family Christmas meal which due to work commitments we always gave after the New Year.The food was amazing so much to choose from, the service was quick, the food was hot, plenty of veg, the deserts were delicious and the list was so long.This is one place I would recommend to family and friends and will be returning to very soon.Thank you Limb Farm for making our meal one of the best!

I am a regular visitor to Lumb Farm and it's fairly constant with food at a good level. The bar area is relaxed and the staff are really friendly.

We ate here on chritsmas day. spent a fortune for this. The meal was very dry and vegetables hard. Rude management too. Defiantly won't be going back, spoilt our day.

Arrived at the hotel friendly welcome shown to the room which was very clean and bright and warm. The food was exelllent and the staff were friendly, breakfast was well presented overall would without a doubt stay there again if I'm in the area.
