I stayed in the Detwent suite which was absolutely beautiful.
It is incredibly spacious and finished to a high standard.
If you are a light sleeper you will need earplugs as you can hear the bar / dining room area
The staff were brilliant, the room was very clean the Breakfast and in our case the evening meal was exceptionally good. Would Definitely Stop There Again.
Really comfortable room in a well-appointed boutique hotel. Staff were friendly. Hotel and grounds were maintained to a high standard. Food was excellent!
Warm welcome. Lovely room in the coach house - spotlessly clean, warm and with very comfortable beds. We ate in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast and the food was very good with friendly and prompt service.
Just an amazing gem, the property itself is an amazing estate with great staff and food - with the feel of a small boutique manor, it offers a nice luxurious retreat at a reasonable price, it was the highlight stay of our 16 day trip around the UK.

Fabulous bedroom & bathroom (The Arkwright Suite). Really lovely building, very clean with tasteful decor.
Steak for dinner was excellent, while the beef pie was overcooked and hard. Pudding was gorgeous.
Breakfast was very disappointing - chefs off duty?
Staff were a bit hit and miss and not that friendly.
We'd definately stay again when the gardens are in bloom - just maybe not have the breakfast.
First class food, excellent service and beautiful surroundings. The only thing missing was a non slip bath/ shower mat, apart from that it was perfect.
Absolutely wonderful stay at Oakhill for our anniversary. Could not fault one thing about it. Everything was spot on. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back soon.
Lovely stay in room number 5. Nicely decorated and very clean. Food was wholesome and freshly cooked, loved that the local food suppliers are listed in the menu. Really nice grounds, pretty views when sitting outside for drinks. Overall a fab find and would definitely return.
