“Trail View House was such a beautiful place to stay! We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I felt like a Nonna cooking in that stunning kitchen, and it had all the things it needed. The bathrooms are brand new, clean, and beautiful. All the rest of the place is oozing with old-world charm. Would definitely come back, and would recommend to anyone coming to Derby!”
