What are the rooms and facilities on offer at Hill Farm Bed & Breakfast?

Somersal Herbert is a small hamlet, where you are likely to meet horses, sheep and cows! The market town of Ashbourne is known as the 'Gateway to the Peak District'. There are plenty of National Trust properties in this area and of course beautiful scenery to walk or cycle in, or just to enjoy from the B&B. Uttoxeter with its racecourse is nearby.

Fruit often from the garden, yoghurt and homemade granola ... the 'Full Derbyshire' served on a locally made oatcake ... freshly baked bread with Hill Farm preserves (also made with fruit from the garden) - what will you chose? For most the answer is all of it! Evening meals can also be prepared with a little notice. There are pubs and restaurants to eat at ranging from casual to very smart with an exceptional tasting menu.

Review of Hill Farm Bed & Breakfast
Posted by Christine SCustomer stayed Apr 2018
5* in every way! Hilary & David, are so special we can only describe them as 'almost extinct' - we have never felt so loved and cared for in a B&B - calm, thoughtful, generous, kind. Delicious home cooked meal - roast chicken with all the trimmings & generous packed lunch to travel next day. A lovely couple with all the ways and charm of a bygone era. Lovely room, comfy bed, huge bathroom, claw bath, power shower, all within a beautifully restored older property, quirky, tasteful. We loved it!!!

A beautifully restored farmhouse retaining all its original charm and character. Wonderful views and a lovely garden to relax in. The rooms are exceptionally clean, with every little thing thought of. The separate bathroom, roll top bath with views over the peaks is sensational. Hilary and David are the perfect hosts - it felt more like staying with friends!

Posted by Wendy LCustomer stayed May 2016
This is a beautiful 200 year old farmhouse, which has been lovingly restored by its owners, Hilary and David. They had thought of everything including tea and cake on arrival, home-made biscuits and a flask of fresh milk in our room and even bath robes. Wonderful accommodation, views and food, together with the perfect hosts. Thoroughly recommended.
