A charming transformation of a once boarded-up pub in a pretty village setting, beside the river Wye in the heart of the Peak District

What luck for the village that they have now got a community hub – and what a hub! This eye-catching 17th-century building sits on the main street with nine bedrooms across the upper two floors and the rambling bar, dining rooms and conservatory (with retractable roof) downstairs. There's a proper bar area for drinkers and an excellent range of local ales, gin and wine from the Hattersley family wine merchant. Relax in comfort by the wood-burning stoves among a mixture of old prints and paintings.

You'll eat well as the pub is 'lovingly stubborn about only using produce from Peak District farmers, brewers and artisan producers'. A short, seasonal menu has classics with a modern twist and most dietary needs are met. You'll sleep well too in rather swish bedrooms, ranging in size, and all with good coffee, fresh milk and smart bathrooms.

The popular suntrap dining terrace is for long summer lunches and suppers with friends and family.
