The staff were lovely, they went the extra mile!
The room was gorgeous and well decorated. The hot tub was so relaxing and lovely being just outside on the balcony. Little extras in the room such as robes and slippers just add to the experience.
Comfy bed and an excellent nights sleep! We would definitely come back!

The dinner and breakfast were excellent. The accomodation was in a separate chalet with parking outside. The staff were friendly. There was an area for walking our dog. We were made to be feel very welcome.

A lovely town, beautifully situated at the edge of the Peak district. Nice shops, a good museum and some excellent places to eat. We ate at The Horns pub twice and it was outstanding, three breakfasts at Cafe Impromptu (also outstanding), and also the George and Dragon (Very good). A nice town with a good vibe.

Fabulous town but needs greater footfall and a greater number of quality galleries etc. All the basic shops are available and great cafes but just feels like things might go down hill if the visitor numbers don’t improve.

it was busier than we imagined. we ate in two lovely independent restaurants/cafes, Lamplight & Corner stone. The park was nice to stretch legs in but is not that large...we were only in town a few hours.

Small cute place.
Small cute place. Great genuinely Gluten Free and affordable Thai Restaurant in the center called 'Thai Basement' (01335 300305). Cute cellar based restaurant. Don't let the tiny door leading down to it put you off, it's a gem!

Lovely, charming little town, St.
Lovely, charming little town, St. Oswald's church is amazing to visit. The little Historical Centre is also a must to learn about the Ashbourne Shrovetide Football, and the Memorial Park was lovely too.
Easy access to the Tissington Trail is from the centre of Ashbourne, but sadly a substantial length of it was closed for our visit due to Ash Tree felling. This is due to continue well into December.
Short drive to Dovedale NT Nature reserve, but the river was in quite a full spate due to the recent rain so access to the Stepping Stones were limited. Ilam Park was a good alternative place to visit however.
We had an Anniversary meal at The Lamplight which was exceptionally good, and we had excellent lunches at Jack Rabbit's and Beaumont's.
We also had a couple of beers in the lovely Queen's Vaults which is a very cosy Craft Beer bar, as well as an excellent pint of Draught Bass in the Wheel Inn, where we were welcomed by the very friendly locals.

See reviews by guests who stayed at hotels in Ashbourne
This is a lovely hotel which is suffering an identity problem. The main issue here is that the price point is at 5 star level, whereas the hotel itself is really 4 star accommodation. The interior design is lovely and we enjoyed spending time in the communal areas of the hotel, the modern restaurant extension is impressive with tasty food offerings, and the grounds beautiful. There really is a lot to like here and Callow Hall has all the makings of a fabulous destination hotel, but it was let down on a few points as listed below.
Location is perfect with the village shop and pub both about a 2 min walk. Lovely church in village where Robin Hood married maid Marian. Cottage was amazing, full of character and a huge private garden. You can walk to uttoxeter in 20 mins and easy access to the beautiful Derbyshire dales and Peak District. Just fantastic time had by all
