Nothing Was expecting more of the restaurant, seen the professional reviews are generally very good, but it was Sunday evening, a restaurant (quasi) empty and with a « limited » menu. So might not be really fair to make a judgement of that meal. However, as said earlier, the service is such that you quickly forget about this.

The Staff!!! Excellent. Long time I haven’t seen such a quality of service; and from every single person you are in contact with. Charming hotel, nice room (the one we had wasn’t enormous, but adequate and with a lot of charm

There was nothing that we did not like about the hotel and cannot think of any thing that we would change

The Peacock is a lovely hotel in the Peak District, by the River Derwent, great location for visiting this area. A very friendly 4 star hotel, very comfortable, excellent food and good accommodation. We could not fault it in any respect

Lovely old fashioned and interesting building. Good location. Disappointingly they let the inviting open fire go out at 8pm in the bar area when everyone was coming in from dinner.. be careful of the red hot towel rail in room 15. Burnt my posterior on it.

One of the finest meals at dinner in many years. Live in Central Stockholm Sweden 4 months a year and often visit family in London the restaurant holds its own with any in either capital. Service staff excellent. Thank you

Continental spread was not great. Fruits served as fruit salad was so ice cold and didnt feel as fresh.

Ambience was good. Room looked nicer than how it was shown in the site picture. Room was cosy and beautifully decorated. Had a peaceful sleep . Loved the location..

Staff were wonderful. When we mistakenly presumed we'd be able to dine at a nearby restaurant after 8pm, Hannah very kindly helped us to make alternative plans. She found a great local hostelry that was still serving, made a late reservation on our behalf, found us a driver and saved us from a very hungry night after a long day's walking. She was, moreover, a delightful, cheering presence. Everyone was very warm and welcoming throughout. The hotel was unusually cosy. Breakfast was spectacularly good and dinner was excellent. We came away feeling extremely well fed, soothed and minded.

just little quibbles :- pillows too hard for our liking, sockets in room tricky to access due to ration of room size and furniture pieces. bathroom small but perfectly formed. Assumed local milk and tea bags for our room but unfortunately neither to our liking. Quite a few steps along the upper corridor as one navigates the route to the bedroom.

quiet, peaceful and restful. Lounge and bar areas intimate comfortable where we felt at ease in the surroundings. very personalised service in all areas by a team of professional, caring, and friendly staff all eager to please as required. we paid an excellent price for DB&B with the breakfast being super hot of huge proportion and good tasting coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. Evening meal had limited choice ( time of year ? ), but tasting well portioned servings; so good choice to only stay two nights. Did not check if bar menu offered. restful nights sleep, loved the steamer rather than iron. Big car park, village stores opposite in case of extra needs

Nothing - it was exceptional!

This was a truly exceptional stay. The room was very comfortable and to a high standard of cleanliness and decor. We received a five star experience from staff. Dinner was incredible and again to a high standard. Breakfast was also fantastic with really great choice. The staff team were great, so welcoming and worked so well together. We will definitely be returning and have already started recommending the Peacock to friends.

Bacon needed to be hotter. Tomato ketchup was requested but didn't arrive.

They always make you feel so welcome and the area is so relaxing. It's great to get away from the bustle and feel really pampered - even though they are a small inn and don't have a Spa. The area is part of the Chatsworth estate and there's a real feeling of 'old' money pervading the area. The hotel itself is steeped in historical artefacts - quietly so.
