February 2025I’ve had the pleasure of photographing weddings at Hardwick Hall, a few times now and it’s always a great experience! The team is very friendly, ensuring the day runs smoothly for couples and suppliers alike. Whether it’s capturing fun, relaxed moments or those timeless portraits, Hardwick Hall has so many great spots to work with. And with the park on your door step lots of opportunities for photos

February 2025We attended an event here. All Staff couldn't do enough for us. Polite, happy to find out answers to questions and know service very well. The food was buffet but different with a stew, curry and fantastic spread, tasted delicious. The large room is stunning and has a real wow factor with the chandeliers. Only 1 gripe when staying, the mattress is rock solid and double bed small, decor a little tired. The price didn't feel like it reflected the experience, however we could have asked them to see if they could make a difference, and I'd expect they'd have tried. Our second bed in a premiere inn was very comfortable and bigger in comparison, but that may be due to preference.

February 2025What an incredible place to have as a hotel and restaurant. I hear it's being renovated and that will be wonderful as it needs some TLC. However, once renovated I hope the housekeeping and maintenance teams take more care and give the rooms and whole hotel their care and attention as in the 2 rooms I stayed in varied from pretty grubby to non functional. Although at first glance look great. The grounds are just stunning, the hotel really needs to reflect its surroundings. Huge potential if more care given.
