Pack your best knickers and chuck your wellies in the car – foodie favourite Fischer’s at Baslow Hall is the stuff of Peak District dreams. Perched at the top of a tree-lined drive a couple of miles from Chatsworth, this creeper-clad manor house has prestigious listings in both the Michelin Guide and the Good Food Guide, and has long enjoyed a stellar reputation for fabulous fine dining.

Whether you opt for the 10-course tasting menu, à-la carte lunch or dinner, or a chef-side spot next to the action at the kitchen bench, prepare to be wowed by meals that let every ingredient sing. Sustainability is big here, with a focus on homegrown, seasonal, locally-sourced ingredients (much of it handpicked from the kitchen gardens).

Fischer’s is elegant but not stuffy; luxe yet laid-back. It’s a beautiful spot to eat, with light flooding through the mullioned windows and dining rooms overlooking the gorgeous manicured gardens. Outside there’s a stunning summer champagne terrace where, along with fizz or a cocktail, you can feast on seasonal dishes from the new terrace menu, specially crafted for outdoor dining. Time it right and you’ll enjoy live music too.

That commitment to sustainability extends to the tempting menu of cool events, from foraging days and garden tours to Meet the Maker wine tastings. Big birthday coming up, intimate wedding in the planning or something else to celebrate? Fischer’s also offers intimate private dining where you can raise a glass in style. Muddy held the Muddy Awards winners’ bash here and it was perfect.

A soft landing after you’ve scoffed and quaffed to your heart’s content – the 11 beautiful bedrooms are all easy elegance and laid-back luxury. Book us in, quick.
