Now part of Derby University offering spa therapies we remember the Dome best when it was the Devonshire hospital and my husband was recovering there. The area under the Dome was used for physiotherapy and a cafe in the corner. If you stand in the middle of the area and speak even softly your voice can be heard all around... More

Had a lovely starter but had to ask for the butter on the table [all other tables had it on], main course came vegetables nearly raw, [ I do like to have my vegetables with a bit ] chicken over cooked. On no occassion were we asked if we would like water even though there were water glasses on the... More
