Morley Hayes - Golf Near Me - Morley, DBY

I had the pleasure of staying at this excellent hotel/golf club last week. Morley Hayes is located on the A608 (Main Road), north-east of Derby. It is a hotel with two golf courses. They also have a gift and souvenir shop at the reception. I was in room 112, which was on the ground floor, which is a floor down from the reception. The bedroom came with a private verandah overlooking one of the golf courses. The room itself was very generous in terms of its floor space with a kingize bed and two sets of sofas. There was complimentary water, biscuits, tea infusions, coffee and hot chocolate. The bath room had a separate bath and shower cubicle with Molton Brown brand of cosmetics. The service was excellent and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We were supposed to meet clients for dinner in the centre of Derby and were ferried to and fro in a Landrover with the Morley Hayes branding on it. It is by far, one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in and if given an opportunity, I would prefer to stay here again. As with everywhere else, I sincerely hope they continue to maintain their levels of service in the days to come. read more

I stayed here the night before my wedding so for me a comfortable, hassle free venue with a hot shower and a hearty breakfast was a must. In that respect I wasn't disappointed. The cost of the room is a little dear for Derby but overall very nice. read more

I live in the USA, but visit my family in the Derby area every year or so. I've eaten here before, and my UK family eat here quite often. Never had any complaints. Up until now. We wanted to celebrate a family get-together for 14 people, which meant that we had to pre-order TWO whole weeks beforehand. Kind of hard when you're in the US and then traveling around Europe before arrival. Anyway, no hassle, we found the menu and sent in our order to our UK family to deal with. Upon arrival, the place was packed, and there was no official hostess around to let you know where you were supposed to be sitting. On a packed night, the teeny tiny bar was jammed with long lines of thirsty customers and we found ourselves hanging out next to people who were trying to eat their dinner. I felt bad for them. We were eventually told we had a private room for our party in the Roosters restaurant. Kinda nice to have that BUT the service was awful. Now I know its a popular place, and the food is supposed to be great, but management should be aware of this and make sure they have sufficient staff to cope. There was no table service for drinks, so a couple of members of our party had to stand in line at the minuscule bar for our 14 or so drinks. And if we needed a refill, they had to go back to the bar themselves. Food - and drinks - eventually arrived. Gotta say, most of the food was okay but nothing to rave about. My brother and son-in-law both had the belly pork, which apparently must have come from a very fatty pig as there was very little actual meat. I was looking forward to having some nice dessert to finish off the meal, yet not a waiter/server/busboy was in sight. No-one came in to offer us the dessert menu. No-one (until we were almost ready to leave) came in to offer coffee. It's a good job we all enjoyed a good chat and our own company, as this somewhat mollified my disappointment with the experience. If you're a couple , or just out with a couple of friends, probably a great place to go. But don't bother if you have a large party. Food and ambience at the Queen's Head in nearby Little Eaton was far superior. Try it! read more

I have a good friend in Derby and she took me here for a meal. It was a special occasion so its probably not the sort of place I would normally go to, not because there is anything wrong with it but it is a little extravagant for my taste. The food itself was great, I had a sirloin as the staff kindly pointed out they have the best quality beef around. The meal was nicely seasoned and went down nicely with a glass of house wine. The restaurant itself seems to be very clean and very well kept. It overlooks a huge gold course. There are lots of function rooms that issue can be used for conferences and wedding. Definitely worth a visit is you fancy a nice stake. read more

Although this is a very well respected golf club with posh new hotel, I only really come here to use the bar and restaurant. The food is very good here and it is in lovely surroundings. The service is good and the salads are definately worth trying! There are lots of dinner nights in the upstairs restaurant and is very popular for Christmas and New Year. I have also been to the Jazz Brunch which, at £17 pounds ish, was a bargain and a great way to spend a sunday morning. there is something for everyone here and I have never been disappointed whenever I visit and for whatever reason. read more

Wonderful place to stay and go for a meal, the food is of 5* quality and you are waited on hand and foot. It offers the perfect escape from city life into a country environment, the staff are always willing to lend a hand in the hotel and you are guaranteed service with a smile. read more

My mum grew up about 2 miles from here and as a result I have been coming here for luch and dinner, at least once a year with my extended family for many years. The place has changed quite drastically over that time. When I was a kid it was more of a Sunday roast lunch affair (at one point I think you ordered almost cafeteria style). Now they have a few dining options- the Rooster's cafe downstairs is more casual- they also have the Dovecote Restaurant upstairs which is where we went this weekend to celebrate my Grandmother's 90th birthday. For context- we had a party of 16 for a 1pm lunch on Easter Sunday... while I was concerned that it was going to be crazy- it was actually unbelievably nice. We did the 3 course meal and the starters were great. I had the ox tongue, others at the table had the soup, the salmon cured on beetroot and the celeriac with soft-boiled egg. Pretty much everyone liked what they had and it was sophisticated without being overly fussy (I love my 90 year old grandmother and 84 year old great-aunt... but they are willing to be adventurous to a point... they are not going to go for foam!) For the main I had the lamb, others had beef and fish- the only one that was not a hit was the gnochi (but then you cannot have everything). The sides came and we were able to select what we wanted. Options included traditional roast potatoes but also cauliflower and broccoli gratin and swede... a far cry from overly-boiled peas and carrots that were a feature of the Morley Hayes pub lunches of my childhood. There was a full range of dessert options (including a fantastic and generous cheeseboard) and then tea and coffee. Because it was Easter Sunday the table featured a Lindt chocolate bunny for each person. The service was very good (given that it was Easter Sunday and we had a very large party) and they did not rush us when we took at least a dozen different family photos at the table. Overall it was a really nice lunch, my grandmother was so happy and we all so appreciated how supportive the staff was during out entire meal! read more

Been a few times. Once for a meal for someones birthday and the food was really nice. Well presented, good portions and most importantly tasty. Although it is quite a 'posh' place us ruffians felt at home as the staff were friendly. It is a little pricey but you get what you pay for. read more
