The At Horsley - Amber Valley

We went to the restaurant for a festive lunch but were disappointed by the experience. The service was very slow, with a 40-minute wait for our starter of pate and soup, and a total wait of 1 hour and 15 minutes for a two-course lunch. While we didn't want to be rushed, we found the wait to be excessive. Additionally, the table was set for afternoon tea, so we had to ask for cutlery and salt and pepper. Overall, everything took too long.

The Sunday lunch experience was extremely disappointing. There were very few options available and when our main dish arrived, it seemed like they had forgotten to include the meat. Unfortunately, we were not able to try any desserts as they had run out of our preferred choice. To top it off, the coffee was served in a mug, which was not up to the usual classy standard we were used to at Horsley Lodge.

I had a wonderful experience with the afternoon tea service. The sandwiches, cakes, and scones were excellent, and the service was top-notch. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

My husband and I got married on May 19, 2018 at Horsley Lodge. The staff was fantastic and the entire day went smoothly from start to finish. I want to give a special thanks to Laura who coordinated the day and was so helpful from the day we booked until the actual event. The master of ceremonies was wonderful and went above and beyond for us. The surroundings provided a beautiful backdrop for our photos and I am thrilled with how they turned out. Thank you to the team at Horsley Lodge for making our day unforgettable.

We got married at Horsley Lodge in April 2017 and it was a flawless day. The venue is absolutely stunning, with almost every guest commenting on how wonderful it was. Our wedding photos turned out amazing thanks to the beautiful grounds. The food and drinks were delicious, especially the Doom Bar on tap. The staff were incredibly helpful and made sure everything ran smoothly. They decorated the Amber Suite exactly as we had requested. The hotel rooms were well-maintained, especially the Salt Suite where we prepared for the wedding and the Shining House where we stayed on our wedding night. We will definitely be returning to Horsley Lodge for future family celebrations. I highly recommend this venue for weddings, meals, and afternoon tea. Thank you for helping us create the perfect day!
