Lovely gem of a hotel

We stayed here in 2021 on a little babymoon and loved it so much that we returned for another little babymoon with baby number 2 in 2024. Lovely hotel, very clean and comfortable. The bar/restaurant is really lovely and very well priced.

Lovely cosy hotel, great weekend away!

Had a lovely few nights stay here. Hartington is a pretty little village and is a great central location for lots of lovely walks and attractions. The hotel is very cosy and all the staff are very welcoming and friendly. The rooms are clean, we stayed in the annexe and weren't disappointed at all. Definitely recommend and would stay again. Thank you for a great weekend.

Lovely hotel with free on-site parking

A lovely hotel in beautiful surroundings. Lots of good walks nearby. Breakfasts were great, but evening meals less so. The children's menu was fine, but could do with children's desserts to go with it.

Great stay at Charles Cotton

Had a great stay at the Charles Cotton hotel. The staff were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The weather was amazing but the room was very hot overnight but luckily we had taken our own fan which was a Godsend We only had breakfast at the hotel which was hot and freshly cooked to order and provided a Gluten Free option for my partner. All in all a fabulous stay in a historic hotel in a wonderful Peak District village

Hartington hotel.

Nice hotel . Very friendly staff. Overall ok. The only problem we had is we've both come home with a bad back as mattress sank in the middle. So not a brilliant sleep. Also no usb sockets.
