Was super pleasantly surprised with this place. Didn’t expect much as it was cheap for a family of 4 but the room was so spacious, had a separate little living area and the bathroom was also big & had a decent shower! We also had a fridge in our room along with plenty of tea etc so it really was like a little apartment. Bed’s were comfy too! There was also free breakfast included for each of us with a range of hot & cold options (cereal/ English breakfast, etc) We had dinner in the restaurant the night of our stay too and the food was great. Staff were pleasant and nothing was too much to ask! The only slight niggle I could give was that the room was a bit too hot even with windows open so maybe a fan would be good to offer in the bigger rooms.

We arrived early and didn’t expect to be able to check in but the lovely friendly receptionist allowed us to check into a lovely ground floor room. It was very clean with a large wet room. Breakfast was lovely the staff all efficient & friendly. It’s our 2nd stay there as we have family living locally so will definitely return.

The Hotel its self was great, we had Room 6 which had a double bed + 2 single beds either side, topped of with a living room and bathroom. Too all my tall people im 6"5 and the shower cubicle was amazing... head room was a good 8-9ft so no complaints there!! also had enough room in there to shower properly and not catch your elbows on walls/doors. The room its self was absolutely amazing - very clean and very well maintained (amazing job to the cleaning team!!) we stayed the first weekend in December 23 which was cold outside (barely got above -0.5) so to our surprise we walked into our room and it was like a furnace (well done Appleby Inn!) Overall our stay was just the 1 night, but in the price we got breakfast included too which again was amazing kids loved the "Hot chocolate machine" Service was good all around and would definitely stay here again if we're around the area and require a BnB!

Had a great one night stay at the Appleby Inn Hotel. All the staff we met were lovely, friendly and helpful. We didn't have an evening meal, but the breakfast (included in the room rate) was excellent, I ordered smoked salmon and scrambled egg on toast and I have never seen so much smoked salmon on a breakfast plate! There is no lift and the stairs are quite steep, but our room was huge, we had a family room with a double bed and a single and both beds were comfortable. Next time I will book an accessible room (in a separate ground floor building) which has parking directly outside and no stairs to negotiate. Only gripe is the room lighting is rather harsh, a bedside lamp is needed or the wall light immediately over the beds needs to have a much lower power bulb. The bed and breakfast price we paid was very reasonable and I'd definitely stay there again.

Very clean and well looked after. Staff were kind & helpful. Rooms were spacious and clean, no odours. Morning breakfast was good, service also in a timely manner. Outside play spaces available for kids & tables for adults. No noise complaints. Overall had a very pleasant stay, would definitely come back again.

Booked a 2 night stay to attend a wedding in Burton. Room was perfect for a family of 4. Requested a quiet room as our boys are light sleepers. 1st night was perfect. 2nd night, turns out we were surrounded by a wedding party who were quite loud in the room upstairs until 2am, then up again and loud at 5am. Ruined our wedding attendance and no staff on site overnight. Real shame!
