Stables Ashbourne in Derbyshire Dales

Lovely decor, very clean. Hot tub was great. All good.

The Stables located at the gateway to the Peaks, just a ten-minute drive to the Dovedale Stepping Stones. It's also a short walk to Ashbourne's town centre, making its location ideal. The private Japanese hot tubs, nestled among lush green plants and offering serene views of the surrounding trees, were the highlight of our stay. Every detail has been considered in the planning of The Stables, and the amenities and facilities were top-notch. We were perfectly comfortable and had everything (and more) that we needed for a weekend away. On our first night, we stayed in the Junior Suite (Room 2), which features a private Japanese hot tub on the terrace. I struggle with insomnia, but the high-quality emperor beds with luxury Egyptian cotton practically cured me within minutes. The second night brought us to the Superior Suite (Room 3). This room is huge, with a beautiful window doubling as a lush reading nook, a roll-top bath, and access to the basement spa with a hot tub and sauna. Both rooms are equally gorgeous and have their bonuses, making it hard to choose a favourite, although the private hot tub might sway me toward one of those rooms! Both rooms also feature rainfall showers, heated towel rails, a Nespresso coffee machine, complimentary drinks, plush robes & slippers, Bluetooth speakers, a GHD hairdryer (huge bonus), and plenty of space for luggage. Adding to everything, there's a pub right next door where you can enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They're known for their steaks and their wood-fired pizzas, and both were delicious and very well priced too. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. It was probably the nicest staycation we’ve had in the UK, and we're already planning a winter return!

What a fantastic boutique hotel! We recently stayed in room 2, which is a junior suite. Beautifully decorated room, with seemingly every little detail though of. Fresh milk in the fridge was a definite win, and the most delicious fresh shortbread to go along side my hot drink. Lovely toiletries and fluffy towels and robes. The Japanese soaking tub on the balcony was a fantastic way to relax, and there were even smash-proof champagne flutes in the room to go with the chilled bottle of bubbles we brought with us. The food from the pub adjacent, which we had via room service, was hot and fresh and really delicious. The bed was also super comfy. I'd definitely stay here again when in the area.

This was our 2nd visit To the Stables we couldn’t was to come back. Our stay was truely relaxing.within room. coffee machine with pods refreshments in fridge water milk coke/ Coke Zero & homemade shortbread biscuits. All complimentary. We had an Amazing nights sleep after relaxing in the hot tub on the balcony.
