Two Distinct Pubs & Award-Winning Ales

The Old Hall Inn and its sister property The Paper Mill Inn offer two distinct dining experiences. The Old Hall serves a seasonal menu prepared with local produce, while The Paper Mill specializes in stone-baked pizzas. The bar features a rotating selection of local ales and ciders, earning the CAMRA Regional Pub of the Year 2025 award.

Characterful Rooms Across Two Properties

Accommodations range from four-poster rooms in the 16th-century Old Hall to two-bedroom annexes with kitchenettes and mountain views. Some rooms feature wood-burning stoves and private balconies overlooking the Peak District. The Paper Mill rooms sit above a lively pub and include en suites with free-standing baths.

Gateway to Peak District Walks

The inn provides Garmin GPS devices preloaded with local hiking routes, including the Jacob's Ladder and Kinder Scout trails. Packed lunches are available for order at £7 to fuel day-long walks. Chinley Railway Station is a 10-minute walk, and Chatsworth House is 20 miles by car.

Live Music, Beer Festivals & Weekly Specials

The pub hosts live folk bands most Monday evenings and an annual beer and cider festival each September. Steak night on Wednesdays offers ribeye with beef dripping chips. Two bars with stone fireplaces and a beer garden create spaces for both dining and socializing.

Family-Run & Dog-Friendly

The hotel offers family rooms, two-bedroom annexes, and kids' meals in both restaurants. Dogs are welcome throughout the pub areas and in designated rooms. Board games and puzzles are available, and the outdoor terrace has space for children to play.
