The Bulls Head
Modern British
£££
The full car park of this village inn says it all. It's gained a strong following thanks to being gastronomically adventurous and having a passionate team who make a real effort to welcome their guests; the custom menu with your name on is a particularly nice touch. The kitchen shows great ambition within the pub surroundings, with tasting menus available alongside the à la carte. Desserts are a particular highlight, including the immaculately risen soufflés that are a must-order if you get the chance. Well-appointed bedrooms complete the appealing overall package.

The Gallery Restaurant
Modern British
£££
Within the grounds of the Peak District’s renowned Chatsworth Estate sits The Cavendish Hotel – and within that is this elegant restaurant where oil paintings fill the walls and there’s a palpable sense of history in the air. Ingredients from the Estate – including juicy, full-flavoured beef – play a key role in the cooking, in dishes that avoid overcrowding the delicious natural flavours of the produce. The breads and desserts are particular highlights, providing excellent bookends to your meal.

The Peacock at Rowsley
Modern British
£££
Occupying a prime corner site near the River Derwent, this foliage-clad former manor house is an inviting prospect as soon as you lay eyes on it. Inside, oak ‘Mousey Thompson’ furnishings and antique oil paintings are juxtaposed with modern lighting and contemporary art. The menus offer a broad spectrum, from light lunch bites like sandwiches, salads and ploughman’s, to a full dinner tasting menu with wine pairings – plus afternoon tea and Sunday roasts. Stay overnight in one of the antique-furnished bedrooms, then spend the next day exploring the Peak District.

At the centre of impressive formal grounds sits this fine Edwardian manor house with charming bedrooms and a classic country house feel, which is now run by the second generation of the Fischer family. Diners are spread across two elegant rooms overseen by a formal service team, with the ‘Kitchen Bench’ experience available for those who really like to be part of the action. Local is key on the menu of classically based dishes, with Chatsworth Estate venison a must-order if you're here in game season.

Stones Restaurant

Negotiate the steep steps down to this small riverside restaurant and you’ll be rewarded with a warm, welcoming atmosphere courtesy of your fellow contented diners and the lovely team. The well-kept front room features floor-to-ceiling windows, while the delightful rear terrace is in prime position for views of the River Derwent. The cooking doesn’t reinvent the wheel but nor does it need to – instead, the chefs confidently execute classic combinations of high-quality ingredients, resulting in satisfyingly flavoursome dishes.
