Rutland Arms Hotel Bakewell

General Information

Embedded in the majestic city of Bakewell in the center of The Peak District National Park, the Rutland Arms Hotel proposes a hint of Georgian elegance in unrivalled vicinage. Built for the Duke of Rutland in 1804, today the structure exudes a special character with a warm, familiar atmosphere and the conventional fascination reminiscent of that era. The inn is graced by a good range of 54 old English clocks dating from 1670 to circa 1860, lending to the air of heritage. Lying equidistant from Matlock and Buxton and on the edge of the Chatsworth Estate, Bakewell is encircled by imposing village yet can be easily reached by highway, rail and auto. Ironically, with a past firmly intertwined with that of both Chatsworth and Haddon Hall, this thriving market place city is now most famed for the Bakewell Pudding which originated here in the kitchens of the Rutland Arms. Sheffield is only 17miles away and Manchester is only 38 miles away. Most essential to clients is the quality of the food. The carte menu at The Square Restaurant here at the Rutland Arms is stunning in quality, fashion and presentation. The brasserie and hall also features an immense carte menu that is catered from 9. 30am - 9. 30pm each day Of the 35 privately styled bedrooms, it's believed that Jane Austen stayed in suite number 2 while visiting Chatsworth and revising the final chapters of her novel Pride and Prejudice. Whether you enjoy fishing, strolling or simply sightseeing, we are waiting for friendly you to the Rutland Arms Hotel.
