We've stayed at Thornhil twice when visiting friends in Derby. We found our rooms to be extremely comfortable, quiet and very clean. There are lots of little nice touches around and breakfast was excellent (veggie option). The kitchen is a godsend and well equipped. As we didn't want to venture out in the evening after our long drive (and knowing... More

My husband and I spent one extremely comfortable night at Thornhill Lodge in mid-October, just after we arrived in the UK from the US. We were greeted warmly and very much appreciated receiving incredibly helpful information that enabled us to make the most of our one day in Derby. We could not have asked for a better place to ease... More

Hi we stayed here for one night at half term 2011. The room was immaculate, clean, cosy & the breakfast was plentiful & enjoyable. Although the en-suite included a beautiful bath, we were non-plussed that there was no shower facilities included (we stayed in the French room) - the website does not make this apparent! Price was reasonable considering the... More

My husband and I stayed at the Thornhill Lodge for one night at the end of September. Our room was very spacious, beautifully furnished and decorated, immaculately clean, had two thick, cozy bathrobes, warm towels, and there were freshly made yummy scones waiting for us upon arrival. Across the hall from our room was a very well-stocked kitchen where we... More

My first impresssion of the proprietor and the guest house was extremely favourable, helpful proprietor, rooms very clean, breakfast very tasty. However, sadly we discovered that we had unfortunately spilt a drop of wine on a chair and cushion which left a stain. Clearly this was not intentionally and we were very apologetic. We have offered to pay the excess... More

I would like to reassure future guests that I am not an unreasonable person. These were extreme circumstances where theft was involved. Also, the guests did not inform us of the substantial damage and it was only discovered after they left. I have to say that problem customers are few and far between and usually my guests are a joy... More

The rooms here are extremely spacious with a huge TV. I loved the kitchen. It would be so easy to fix yourself a bite to eat if you were staying for a few days instead of having to eat out all the time. There was a pub in very short walking distance with an extensive menu if you did want... More

The rooms are spacious, luxurious and tastefully decorated with wonderful finishing touches. As on previous visits, the room was spotlessly clean and had everything we wanted - a comfy bed, radio alarm clock, hairdryer, bathrobes, fluffy towels, toiletries and full tea/coffee making facilities and even homemade rock cakes on our arrival. There was also a good TV and DVD player.... More

We decided to break our journey to and from our holiday in the Lake District. Having stayed at Thornhill Lodge previously we booked two nights and stayed on 24th June and 2nd July respectively. On each stay we were allocated a different room. The first at the front of the house and the second at the rear. Both rooms were... More

What a brilliant set-up! This sets the standard for all B&Bs. The guest kitchen made all the difference, with milk, fruit, etc all provided, and the welcoming rock cake must be unique. Many thanks. Barbara More

I've been staying at the Thornhill for over 5 years as a US business traveler and would not stay anywhere else in Derbyshire. The Thornill s a beautiful house in a very quiet neighborhood, but convenient to everything. Rea and Geoff could not be more gracious hosts, always willing to accommodate my crazy arrival/departure times. The rooms are gorgeously decorated... More
