Super stay - high quality furnished room, and quiet late on, despite the vibrant atmosphere at the adjoining pub. Only thing I could perhaps find fault with would be the high tog rating for the duvet (which made for a rather warm night !)

Fabulous staff. Excellent food. Very comfortable bed. Shower head had a leak but was replaced very promptly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Only slight criticism would be that it was a bit messy near the bedrooms.

The property was really well decorated and clean as it has just recently been upgraded and was beautifully decorated inside. Unfortunately there has been no sound proofing in the property, so the noise from The upstairs apartment and people leaving the pub was very off putting. We have stayed at The Dragon on numerous occasions, but this will be our last time booking in here.

Booked this at the last minute and it was a great choice. Struggled to find it on a dark and rainy night because it’s part of the Dragon pub and I couldn’t find a sign for the cottage! Parking was quite busy but still found a space. Much better than the drab budget hotels in Derby.

Very clean, tidy, comfortable and spacious accommodation. Lovely to have somewhere to sit and watch a film rather than only a bed so definitely worth paying a little extra.

Friendly, well set-up and comfortable.

The staff were welcoming and friendly. The room was great and they'd kindly set it up for our kids to have their own beds. Really clean and well provisioned. The bed was gigantic. A little hard (for us), but hundreds of cushions and we were very comfy in our room. We'd be very happy to stay again.

The room and pub were lovely, could fault the staff who were all wonderful. However we both had a steak in the pub restaurant and it was tasty but very very tough which spoilt our meal. Apart from that I would recommend for a nights stay.

Comfortable stay

Lovely room at a great local gastro pub/restaurant. Room was a bit cool (end of the cold snap) and no individual room thermostat but otherwise ok. Bottled water would have been a nice option.

Over night stop 20 mins from airport

The cottage is on a busy road and had noise traffic until midnight. There was noise from an extraction fan that ran until 4.15 and then started at 6am. The bed was very hard and the quilt was extra warm 13.5 tog. It is July and we are in a heat wave. We ended up sleeping on the quilt and used the cover only. The room was really clean and the shower hot and powerful. The restaurant was really good with a large and varied menu. I had jack fruit for the first time. It is on the canal but it is the pub bit not the accommodation.
