The Corner Pin in Erewash

We stayed here after a party 22/03 Would not recommend for the price, we paid £80 for a family room. No guards on any of the beds, there was a big mirror just leant against the wall, dangerous when you have children. Pillows was as flat as anything, the kettle wasnt near a socket on the table so plugged in on the floor, again not ideal when you have children. The shampoo / conditionor / body wash was an all in one. Cups were chipped, mattresses weren’t comfy, light bulbs was dim and not maintained.. Poor foe the price.

Very welcoming and very friendly, they cannot do enough for you . Carvery was excellent

Concerning animal welfare standards: I don’t like to be negative, but when it comes to animal welfare, I believe it’s important to speak up and spread awareness. Having been in the animal industry for over five years, I was saddened by what I saw today. I completely agree with a review from eight months ago, which highlights concerns that still haven't been addressed—showing a clear lack of progress despite multiple visitors pointing out the same issues. The enclosures are far too small for many of the animals. While the opportunity to feed them is a nice touch, there should be clear signage indicating what animals can be fed what. From what I saw, the feed buckets given out contained a large amount of carrot and lettuce, which children were feeding indiscriminately to all the animals. Clear guidance would help ensure that the animals are receiving appropriate food that suits their dietary needs. The ducks were confined to a tiny child’s paddling pool with only an inch of filthy water, far from the clean, natural environment they need. The peacock had so little space that it could barely display its feathers without hitting the top of the enclosure. The pigs had very little bedding, raising concerns about their comfort and enrichment. One of the most concerning things I witnessed was the geese attempting to drink from dirty water, but they kept sneezing as if they were struggling with its quality. This is a clear sign that their environment is not being maintained to a suitable standard. Additionally, the flooring in nearly all the enclosures was just mud. While I understand that mud can be an issue on farmland, especially in wet conditions, it would be beneficial to incorporate straw bedding to help keep the animals warmer and more comfortable. The lack of suitable substrate made many of the enclosures appear bleak and unwelcoming. Another major concern was the complete lack of visible enrichment in the enclosures. There were no toys, structures, or natural features to stimulate the animals, making the spaces look bare and the animals appear bored. Providing enrichment is essential for both physical and mental well-being, and its absence only adds to the sense that welfare standards are not being met. I truly hope that steps are taken to improve these conditions. I would much rather pay an entry fee if it meant seeing animals in well-maintained, spacious environments where their welfare is prioritised. As it stands, I would not recommend visiting if you have empathy for other living beings. I wish I would've taken more pictures but I did get a picture of the 'pond' in the Wildfowl enclosure, there are more reviews similar and pictures showing the environment.

Loved it tonight. Sat with a friend, amazing staff and amazing beer! Had a great night with no issues at all. Plenty more nights to come!

Brilliant potential with new owner. Willing to challenge what beers they should sell. We look forward to what they do in the future
