Lovely Stay
We had a lovely stay at The Pig of Lead last week. The whole experience was great, from the warm welcome, the superbly comfortable room to the delicious breakfasts. It is a great base from which to explore the area, I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Excellent Stay - First Class Breakfast
Ideal base for exploring the area of Matlock and Matlock Bath. Hosts were very friendly and the breakfast was first class, all the produce was of good quality and nicely prepared/presented. Bedroom was very comfortable and clean, bathroom was excellent with choice of bath (after a long day walking) and shower for wake me up after good nights sleep. Car park is secure behind electrically operated gates. Will definitely return if visiting the area again.

Great hosts and superb breakfasts.
An absolutely great 4 night break at the Pig of Lead from 31st August. Can't recommend highly enough. Spotlessly clean, full of character and our hosts Julie and John were superb even giving us a lift up a very steep hill to the village pub which was also excellent. Wonderful breakfasts as well. It's 6 out of 5 from us.
Thank you. John & Andrea.

It was originally a pub and converted to a pleasant B and B. The landlady was a local and was very helpful. The breakfast was great.

A genuine, friendly welcome awaits you.
Like some others who have reviewd room 2, we found the wash water tepid at best. Loss of sleep due to the noise from quarry lorries which start at 4 o'clock in the morning and the motorbikes on this busy road junction spoiled our stay.
That said, we could not praise our hosts enough for thier generosity and willingness to please. I do hope they can find a work around to the noise.

Welcoming and friendly hosts
Very friendly and welcoming hosts. The room was spacious and had everything required - possibly a wardrobe might have been nice instead of a rail, but this was a very minor criticism, as there was plenty of drawer space. The bed was huge and comfortable. Breakfast was very good. Secure parking to the rear of the property. The owners were lovely people.

Liked the filling breakfasts esp the oatcakes! Lovely friendly couple running it. The fridge in our room was useful plus we had the use of a microwave in the breakfast room if we'd needed it. Julie and John didn't object to us ordering in a takeaway if we'd wanted to. Secure parking behind gates.

Great B&B close to attractions of Derbyshire
We stayed here to go to Chatsworth flower show and Haddon Hall. A brilliant B&B ideally situated to the many attractions of the area. Very comfortable and welcoming. Breakfast excellent.

Historic building converted to a pub 1737 I think it said. Stayed there because of history and name interested me. On a very noisy corner with a lot of early morning truck traffic. Narrow stairs makes luggage a bit of a challenge for a senior.
Breakfasts were very good.

The only problem was that it was very difficult to find in the dark.due to a road closure.
