A great country pub to stay in!

Really good, and great value. Lovely setting, and great views from the pub garden and terrace. Good base for walks into Derbyshire, and great beers. Rooms are all themed to different Titanic beers, which is really quirky and nicely done. I was in Steerage, and the only negative comment was the very noisy water pump that goes off intermittently once or twice and hour through the night. Once you get used to the sound it was okay, but it does shock you a bit at first. If they could sort that, it would be great. Staff were welcoming and lovely. A hidden gem.

Improve how you speak to customers

Pros- good location, good size room with really comfortable bed. Good value for money. Cons- initial room was right above the loudest part of the pub so I asked if there were similar rooms available in a quieter location. The manager - Andy - so rude. Actually stunned by his treatment of me. Made what should have been a simple room swap really heated. I eventually got to change rooms and I'm so glad I did- the second room was ideal. But having Andy speak to me the way he did put me off staying again and I've told local friends my story so they're aware. Such a shame - as a paying customer I expected much better.

No heating and in need of some repairs!

There was no heating in the bar or the rooms during my stay, because apparently the heating was broke. My colleague had stayed an extra night than me, but the heating was not fixed at all during our stay and no explanation or refund, etc was offered. The bar and rooms were cold (although an electric heater was provided in the room) and everyone in the bar was sitting in coats and hats (never witnessed this previously)! The rooms were ok, but some maintenance is required due to a towel rail hanging off the wall, cold tap was loose, toilet seat was very loose, paint flaking off the bathroom ceiling and the TV signal was weak (pixels at times). Shame really as its a nice building, but just seems to of been left behind with no money spent on it! Big thanks to Martha though as she was very helpful and did seem to care.

Fantastic locals pub with lots of atmosphere, great food. Can't speak highly enough of the village of Ashover, and the surrounding area. The rooms are a little small but its what you expect for a pub of that age. Definately a 5 star stay.

The Old Poets Corner is perfect for a one night stay. It's in a quiet rural location but it was a travel stop for us. Rooms are clean and quiet, named after beers and you get complimentary beer in the room. Bathrooms are dated but clean.
