더 피콕 앳 로우슬리

This place is amazing wow. Our room had a 4 poster bed which was one of the most comfortable beds I have slept in. The staff were amazing, lovely greeting at reception too. We had booked in the restaurant for Sunday night and Sunday dinner was amazing. Sirloin of beef was outstanding, wine delicious. Service again outstanding in the restaurant and the same for breakfast. Highly recommend

A beautiful old building with an interesting aged history. The staff were amazing, very friendly. We were looked after in our stay with passion from every member of staff we encountered. Our tasting menu that evening was truly wonderful and a fabulous wine and cocktail list that was very suitably priced and packed with some very interesting wines. We retired to our rooms for one of the best sleeps ever. The rooms had welcomed air-conditioning. Breakfast was equally good. Could not fault ThePeacock at Rowsley.

What helps create a perfect stay? A warm welcome from courteous staff that continues throughout your stay, Superb customer service. Breakfast was excellent, as it as a Monday stay we ate at The Ashford Arms ( great food and service there too). The Room number 3, suite with four poster, had a comforting feel, as though you were part of history. Will visit again and sample the dinner menu. Blossoms lovely too!

The staff was professional, friendly and accommodating. The room was beautiful and spacious. The bed was so comfortable it was difficult to leave it. Oh, and the grounds and garden are gorgeous—-right on a river with great views of stone bridges. Five stars all around!

This place is just beautiful! I love a historic property and this one ticks all the boxes for me. We came for an anniversary lunch and it felt so special. A very pleasant glass of fizz in the garden followed by a lovely lunch indoors. Staff were friendly and helpful and we had a lovely welcome as well as an anniversary card on our table. I just hope I will be able to stay one day!

We've stayed at a number of hotels similar to The Peacock and can say confidently that it is best in class. Located just outside Bakewell, The Peacock sits comfortably beside the Derwent and has well kept grounds. It's beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and somebody has excellent taste in period furniture. It fits with the 400 year old fabric and feel of the building. The welcome is remarkably warm and friendly, which sets the tone. Somehow they have managed to instil that je ne sais quoi with all of the guest-facing staff. That is a huge achievement in hospitality and not easy to either deliver or replicate. Well done team Peacock, it has been noticed and appreciated. Please keep it up. It makes a big difference. It's certainly worth eating here. The food is, without exception, first rate. A really nice touch was the unexpected amuse bouche with pre-dinner drinks in the bar. Breakfast also was fabulous and shouldn't be missed. Yes, it is a wee bit pricey. However, that is more than matched by the entire experience. I should also say that the pink SMEG kettle in the room was an inspired inclusion. It's light years ahead of the usual anonymous article placed as an afterthought in most hotel rooms. Quirky is good!
