The Peacock at Barlow in North East Derbyshire

Went for Sunday lunch with a large group. Great service and food, to say there was 25 of us. Very friendly staff.

Super spot, great food and friendly staff

Loved staying the night here. The bed was super comfy. The cottage is very close to the pub and lovely and cosy. The food at the pub was delicious and good portions.

Lovely country pub/hotel on the outskirts of Chesterfield with its own Microbrewery

Couldn't fault a thing, all the staff were perfect. Ben welcomed us and showed us our room, very professional. Food and beer was great. Have already recommended to friends

Excellent dining experience delicious food beautifully presented polite and efficient service 😋

Excellent service ,Foods and Drinks

Stayed here overnight with my wife. When we arrived we sat on the terrace outside the bar and overlooked the breathtaking views - rolling fields for miles around. The room we had was also stunning, with a deep bath and a lovely comfortable bed. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. We dined in the restaurant and had breakfast there in the morning. The food was delicious and service very good. It was very busy although we took that as a sign of how good it is! We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to others. It’s relaxing and in a stunning location with nice staff and good service. Can’t go wrong.

Really enjoyed our stay here, Room was lovely and had everything you could want, very impressed. Evening meal was lovely, had the chicken dinner which was great, fantastic gravy. Their beer brewed on site was top rate. All the staff we delt with were great and friendly. Next morning after a great night sleep had a lovely breakfast. Only down side was that we had booked it for my wife’s birthday stating so on the booking notes, normally with other bookings we’ve done at other hotels we would have some recognition of this, maybe just a card in the room, nothing here which was a shame and spoiled the celebration slightly.

We had dinner here as part of an overnight stay. Although everything was excellent as an overall experience and an overnight stay at the hotel represents very good value, we thought the restaurant as a standalone was quite expensive for the service on offer. Food and drinks are ordered at the bar, and bills are settled at the same location. Our food both salmon fillet meals were very good and nicely presented although at around £26 per meal is the top end for this type of establishment. There is a good wine list, although wine etiquette from the server who poured out wine without offering tasting left some room for improvement. We were still very happy to dine here and would unreservedly be happy to visit again if in the area.

Staff are mostly very young and many have zero manners or understanding of handling complaints. Prefer to argue or answer back than escalate things. Manager apologised but just box ticking really. Wont be going back as staff are just there for the £ and don’t care less about hospitality. Food was a bang average Sunday roast at best. Burnt roast potato’s and a poor excuse for a “home made Yorkshire pudding” that looked nothing like one. It has the potential to be a great meal out, if the staff were better trained, or just mature enough to be honest. Maybe the chef just had a bad day also, but won’t be there again to find out.

Visited on Easter Sunday with family as a group of 15, food was ok but unfortunately one very rude member of staff ruined the experience. We had our 11 month old baby with us as part of our group, and when drinks were first bought to the table the waiter started passing glasses over (and very close to) his head whilst in his highchair. I asked him not to do that and he apologised but then kicked the high chair as he left the table while our baby was eating. As the food was then being bought out I had to ask a couple of other members of staff not to pass hot plates over our babies head as it kept happening. One member of staff then decided to be very rude repeatedly saying “I haven’t been here so I haven’t passed anything over his head before” and “I’m not going to drop anything on him”. Our whole group was taken aback by her attitude and the fact she clearly didn’t understand the seriousness of potentially dropping a hot plate of food on a baby. I wasn’t saying that she would drop something but understandably this was not a chance I wanted to take. The lady looking after our group then had to come over to apologise. I did speak to a manager who apologised but to be honest this felt very much like a half hearted apology and said he had spoken to the member of staff but really it should have been the staff member apologising for being so rude. Whether she understood the seriousness of passing things over a babies head or not, there was no need to be so rude. She could have simply apologised at the time and that would have been that. This experience ruined an otherwise nice meal out with family and to be honest I can’t believe that someone can speak to customers in the way I was spoken to and all you get back is ‘I apologise and I’ve spoken to her’ without even gesture of goodwill offered. I certainly won’t be returning and neither will the rest of our party.

Food is expensive. Lovely but rather pricey

We often call here for breakfast. Generally speaking the quality of the food is good and the staff are friendly and efficient. The only issue is the ‘hot’ drinks are never hot. At our last visit we had two lattes and a hot chocolate which were lukewarm at best and this happens most weeks which is a shame as otherwise everything is good.

Love this place.... Foods delicious! Top service!

Came here for a meal - didn't book but we got in easily. Lovely relaxed environment, very pretty with gorgeous views of the countryside. There is even a mjni brewery on site - you can see the casks through a viewing window. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The meals were lovely and a good size - we couldn't manage a pudding. Car parking was a little interesting as the spaces are quite tight and note there are some steps to get down into the restaurant (I'm presuming there is a lift too but wasn't really looking for one). Would recommend for a nice home cook style meal and will return. Thank you Peacock

Stunning place inside very noisy in the dining area birthday's I suppose other times it's quieter.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch here. Was absolutely gorgeous. Best one around and full tummies for us all. Definitely recommend

I was on a work trip at The Peacock and the measure of my experience there is that I would go back on a weekend away outside of work in a heartbeat. My accommodation was a stone cottage across the lane from the pub and was idyllic. Everyone who works at The Peacock should be proud of what they do as a team. The service was worthy of a 5* hotel, the food was amazing and their attention to detail was second to none. Just a little thing like them knowing I was from the cottage when I went for dinner and the detail in the accommodation made it worthy of a glowing review. Well done everyone, you smashed it.

Awesome food Awesome service Christmas decorations were amazing Visited twice during our stay definitely go again

The pub is in a great spot and was packed for Sunday lunch. The service from the mainly fairly young team was really good - whoever is recruiting and training them needs to take a bow. The Sunday roast was ok but definitely in the quantity over quality category, and expensive at £22+. Mind you, if you can charge £22 for ok and still be packed then fair play I guess.

Came for Sunday dinner and thoroughly impressed. Very pleasant and efficient staff and the food was delicious. Good choice of beers too.

Very nice place and good food but it is overpriced by at least 25%. One other gripe is that if you ask for soda water, they want to charge, which i dont agree. I asked why they charge, and they said because of the gas. If you had a bottle of still water, there is no charge, so i find it a bit cheeky, and money grabbing was not necessary. Prices seem to have shot up again , £26 for a Sunday lunch quad father, a very royal high price, which I would never pay. Its not as though the food is bad, just overpriced. Prices have increased again for the quad father now at £28 plus. Eye watering to think of it, really. Sunday lunch at barlow Hall is £27 and in unique settings, so I will be trying that place next. Update on Barlow Hall Sunday lunch, it was terrible.

4 night break in July 2022. Stayed in Northdown room on ground floor which is opposite outdoor seating area. Lovely location, friendly staff, clean & comfortable room with good-sized bathroom. Fresh milk & bottled water provided in the room daily. Breakfast was good but we were not as impressed with evening meal selection. Returned in December 2022 for a 2 night break between Christmas and New Year. This time we stayed in the Pilgrim room located above the bar. Breakfast was cooked to perfection especially the crispy bacon, fried bread and toast.

One night stay with a hearty breakfast included....evening meal and service excellent

We did not stay at the Peacock but stayed across the street from it, so the rooms do not apply As for the food..exceptional and the service was spot on. First time there, I ordered fish and chips and my wife ordered sea bass Was hot, right and on the table within 15 minutes of ordering Absolutely flabbergasted as service here is NOWHERE near that Highly recommended

Absolutely love this place great food and great service.

Stayed here for 4 nights in the Sycamore Cottage which was warm, cosy and presented really well. The food here is excellent, had breakfast here every morning and dinner every night. The Staff are very accommodating, helpful and friendly. It’s really nice to see an Independant business clearly putting in a huge amount of effort to make themselves stand out. I would love to stay here again.

The venue is great and the staff are helpful. Our food was average at best, I nearly sent my over done burger back 😞 but we'd waited long enough and the venue wasn't busy.

Stopped after a walk in the peak district, so glad we came across it. Environment is so welcoming and warm. Very cosy and food was amazing. Even better that dogs are allowed. Definitely will return!

Excellent all round, could not pick fault with anything, the staff are helpful and friendly, the food is of a very high standard, will definitely go back.

We have visited the peacock on a few occasions either for drinks or meals and each time the staff have been very courteous and very accommodating. The food and atmosphere is also first class.

A casual dining environment with amazing food, service, and atmosphere, perfectly decorated for the festive period, and at a reasonable price, would highly recommend for breakfast, lunch or evening dining, traditional food done really well, with little touches that make it special.

Ah, the Peacock at Barlow—once the shining jewel of my Sunday roast dreams. But sadly, my most recent visit has left me with a slightly less rosy view of both the restaurant and the birds they’re named after. Let’s talk about the roast dinner. Now, when you’ve been promised four meats by something called "The Quadfather," expectations are high. Four meats. That’s not a meal, that’s a meat festival. I was ready to channel my inner carnivore, prepare myself for a meat-infused spiritual awakening. But what did I get instead? A roast dinner that was colder than my enthusiasm after watching the potatoes not even try to crisp up. And, as for the four meats—well, I count three on my plate, and one of them looked suspiciously like "something that used to be meat." I'm not sure if I missed the memo on the "fourth" meat, or if it was just a very enthusiastic metaphor. Either way, the promise of quad wasn’t quite delivered. Now, the real kicker? This was the special Sunday where we decided to use a gift voucher to celebrate our engagement. You know, because nothing says "we’re in this together" like a roast dinner and a side of disappointment. If I’m being honest, the roast was so cold, it could have been the icebreaker for our wedding vows. I should’ve known something was off when I walked in and noticed a distinct lack of excitement in the air—more ‘peacock feathers falling flat’ than ‘showing off’. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had some of my favourite meals at the Peacock before—those golden moments where everything comes together like a well-rehearsed choir. But this time, the choir was out of tune, the stage was cold, and the choir director had possibly misplaced the sheet music. I’ll probably return, because every restaurant has an off day (and I’d like to believe the “quadfather” was just having a tough weekend), but for now, I’m left with the bitter taste of cold meat and unmet expectations. So, until next time, Peacock—please, for the love of engagement dinners everywhere—don’t make the next roast a 'meatless' miracle.

We have just stayed at the Peacock, in the Pilgrim room, as a treat, the night before my wife’s 60th Birthday. The welcome, on arrival, the room itself and the little note acknowledging her Birthday, were superb. The room was lovely, the bathroom massive and everything tastefully done. We ate in the restaurant, last night and enjoyed everything. Lovely local beer and the food was fantastic. So well presented, generous portions, fantastic service, topped off with a special little cake/ candle and chocolate message, again acknowledging her Birthday. We also had breakfast today, again faultless. We throughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

Wow! Visited today as a party of 10, food was piping hot, quality ingredients and not a skimpy portion! Desserts were just as good. Allergies were accommodated. Beautifully decorated as well. So good we’ve booked for 2025 already. Thank you to all your staff.

What a brilliant gastro pub with A1 accommodation and beautiful cottages for our stay it was amazing plus meals plus comfort plus welcoming great all rounder

A gathering with family this week and a first experience for us. Festive lunch Dry Turkey, dry stuffing, chaotic service from staff. Personally I wouldn't wish to return

Absolutely loved it! Our first family meal in some years of not seeing each other and it was so cosy, warm and great service inside. The staff were so nice - especially Harrison who was so sweet and personable, always went out of his way to make sure we were happy and okay. Also the manager at the till, forgot his name tag but he was also such a gent and made ordering easy. Thanks so much, we will be back. Ps. Super dog friendly! Which we always look for in a good restaurant

Definitely coming back in the summer with our dog, so we can stay in the cottage’s, the place is stunning the staff were all happy and friendly,

First time here. What a great location with fabulous views. Warm welcome. Friendly vibe with people from adjacent tables chatting on an autumnal Sunday morning. Eggs benedict was prefect. Photo shows the poached eggs after I broke them. Perfectly cooked. And there was just enough Hollandaise Sauce without drowning out the flavours. The eggs with bacon on crushed avo and sulsa was delicious. A bit too much salsa for my liking but wasn't my dish. The dessert French toast was great. Bread was thick. Moist and tasty. Might have been perfect with a side of extra maple syrup. Or maybe I'm just an greedy maple syrup piggies. Lovely pub. Great food. Picturesque location. Friendly staff. What's not to like. Highly recommend.

What a beautiful place! I stayed overnight in the cottage for a work trip. There was a fresh scone, clotted cream and jam left for me, Coffee pods and fresh milk. The cottage was so cosy and beautiful decorated. Breakfast is the morning at the pub was incredible. Service was outstanding throughout. I will definitely be back.

We came here for a family Sunday lunch. You are not able to book, but the staff were great at managing the queue and taking our phone number to call when the table was ready. I had the beef burger (happy that they now serve this on Sundays!) It was very good. 2 small patties, plenty of cheese and bacon and served with a good amount of nice crispy fries and a really lovely side salad. My wife had the roast beef which was also good. Plenty of lovely meat and lots of nice veg. Service was great. Even though the staff were rushed off their feet, they were still all really pleasant and friendly. I'm sure we will be back again for a family meal.

Superb Sunday Dinner. Very generous size. Mid priced, excellent value. Great, attentive service. Stayed for one night in cottage. Superb facilities, very clean. Can't be faulted.

A beautiful spot with great views and good food after a walk around Linacres Reservoirs.

This is my second visit for a Sunday roast, food and service were top notch, well worth a visit. I can't review the rooms as I have only eaten here twice, both times were excellent.

Fortunately there were spaces left in the car park when we arrived and one table available. It seems really crowded when you go in but it was OK when we sat down. I had the bau bun special for starters and there were two tasty buns stuffed with meat. For main I had the liver and mash special which was great apart from I couldn’t finish the mountain of mash! Good selection of beers including the home brewed ale which was great. On the expensive side for a in but probably on a par with most good pub restaurants around.

My wife and I stayed at this small but great hotel/restaurant. A very warm welcome before being shown to our well appointed room. A nice touch was the large scone with clotted cream and jam waiting for us. We had dinner and a few pints of their own brewed beer. All of which were fantastic. The staff were all wonderful. We will definitely return.

Popped in on the way to the Peaks. Lovely food, staff really friendly and welcoming. Great ambience, and would definitely recommend.

Nice pub in a lovely location. It was very busy when we visited. We went for a Sunday lunch. I had a chicken dinner. Food was ok, nothing special. I think it was overpriced too

We were celebrating, food is very expensive but nice. Drinks are exceptionally over the top. Wine - unbelievably out priced not even drinkable at just under £40 per

We stayed on our trip to Chatsworth House Estate. It’s only a short detour from Chatsworth House. The Sycamore Cottage is amazing. The beds were comfortable, the bathroom was very modern and the cottage was very classy. Wi Fi with a strong signal right through the cottage. All the usual conveniences. The whole accommodation is immaculately clean. Central heating made the cottage a very comfortable place to stay. We had dinner at the Peacock at Barlow. The food was brilliant. Good selection on the menu and the quality of the food was fantastic. The meals were served pretty quickly as well. We had the rib eye steak and the pork belly and it was delicious. They also have their own brewery and had three local pump ales available. Collyfobble Brewery. Give the IPA a go. A full English breakfast was included with the accommodation cost. That was a great meal. The pub terrace has charming views across green fields and some stone cottages. Really feels like you’ve escaped. The only thing better than the food and accommodation is the customer service. All of the staff were so friendly, helpful and nothing was a problem. We were actually served by James and Owen on Saturday evening who turned out to be the managers! The wait staff and the bar staff were all over it. Even when it’s busy, they were helpful and friendly. It made our stay in Barlow an amazing experience. The next morning, the hotel staff helped me out with an item that I needed. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who is visiting the area. Do yourself a favour and go for the weekend. I can’t give a higher review rating so 5 stars it is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely setting and really good offer of real ales .

We visited for breakfast on this occasion and, as always, the food was perfect. We have never had a bad experience at the Peacock in Barlow. I would definately recommend a visit.

My favourite place to chill, wine and dine. Absolutely exceptional service. The food is second to non. Spectacular views. Nothing is too much trouble for the team. They have perfection down to a fine art . Thank you 😊

The quality of the food was amazing! Great portion sizes and lovely atmosphere. Would definitely recommend visiting here for some lunch

We stayed in the cottages at The Peacock, and absolutely loved our stay. The staff were some of the friendliest and most helpful I've seen and catered to all of our needs. Not to mention the restaurant was absolutely fantastic. I'll definitely be visiting again when I'm back in England!

Inconsistencies regarding whether or not you can reserve a table for Sunday lunch. When we arrived we were informed that only reservations were made for groups of 8 but then a group of 5 turned up who had a reservation.

We've been visiting The Peacock since it first opened, which must be near to 10 years ago. The food was always fantastic, good portion sizes and reasonably priced. We often pop in for a drink, we really like the atmosphere in all seasons! It's also lovely to sit outside in the summer. BUT....We visited on Saturday night for food & noticed that the prices were averaging around £18 - £21 per dish. Some dishes more expensive, particularly on the specials menu. I ordered the Peacock Fully Loaded Burger (priced at £19.95), I was so hungry and expecting a decent sized burger that'd be too big to manage....how wrong was I. It was tiny. I'm pretty sure a Big Mac is bigger 🙈 The patties were dry and crumbly, cooked to 'very well-done' 🙃 The side salad was just a few leaves & the fries were few. The other dishes that the table had were - bangers and mash, curry and chicken souvlaki. Again, all quite small portions. We understand that the hospitality industry has taken a huge hit & the cost of produce and wages etc has risen, however the quantity and quality of the food does not align with the prices that are now charged. I cannot complain about the staff, most of them are pretty young, but they're attentive and polite. The pub is a lovely place, with a lovely atmosphere. However, I think we'll be giving it a miss for now, considering that the local area has other lovely pubs and restaurants that are more wallet friendly.

An overnight stay whilst catching up with family then a trip to Chatsworth and the local area. The staff were fantastic, very attentive and friendly, something most places seem to have lost! the bedrooms were very comfortable and the food was excellent. could not believe how busy it was on a Monday night! will stay here again for sure as its a perfect spot to explore the beautiful countryside and villages in the Peak District

Great room, well equipped with very good bathroom. Everything worked and fresh milk in the room. There was a very large fresh scone waiting for us in the room which was delicious. Breakfast was good and served at the table. Did exactly what it needed to and all the staff were lovely.

Visited for lunch to celebrate my mums birthday and was very impressed. The service and presentation of the food was excellent, the wait time was very reasonable despite it being quite busy. The children’s meals were a very generous size, as were their desserts. Two of the three mains that we ordered were perfect and I’ve never seen onion rings the size of the ones that accompanied the steak! I wouldn’t order the souvlaki again, but that’s just personal preference. Desserts were also delicious and it took a lot of will power not to buy more of the amazing looking cakes to take home. Well done peacock, keep it up.

Lovely view from the patio. A nice place to eat.

Amazing views, delightful food and excellent service. Would highly recomend.

Love this place, seem to have got a real bargain when we booked. Rooms are well equipped, very clean and have high quality furnishings. Breakfast has to be the best we have both had in a very long time. We did have evening meal and a few pints at extra charges and everything was well worth it. Staff although very young (maybe we are getting old) were well trained and looked after us. Can't fault this place.

An excellent dining experience. Superb choice of drinks.

This pub is very smart and modern with an attached brewery - great. Friendly helpful staff. But food very over priced and poor quality. We had two fish pies £40 +. Both dried out and lacking in flavour. Also, cottage pie in what I would describe as a large cappuccino cup £20, again too long in oven . Decided against deserts at £8.45 each on mains lack of quality. Should have complained but not wishing to embarrass my friends!!

Fabulous Sunday Roast. The best I've ever had in a pub. £20.95 but have paid £16.95/£18.95 recently and the quality didn't come close. It's basically as good, if not better than homemade. The staff are also exceptional. Friendly professionals who know how to deliver.

We were here for dinner and a stay over in your Admiral room. Firstly amazing staff always smiling and helpful despite being mega busy in the restaurant!! Food was very good . The open gardens were on so they had more customers than usual and I was told they had done 700 covers on Sunday!! If I was to be critical the noise was really really loud in the restaurant which spoilt it as we couldn’t talk . However the positive is that it’s popular because it’s good!!!! The room was spotless and the bathroom was very good even has little lights that came on near the floor. Next time we stay we are going for a room upstairs as I want to have a view . So I will be returning. Lovely breakfast and lovely waitress with red hair and nice smile. Thank you for being so nice to us. Very very good service . Thank you Jill and Gerry from Suffolk.

Decided to go here for my birthday meal. What a shame, as the food was terrible. We had the Sunday roast beef and roast chicken. The beef texture was like mush and tasted not like beef, the roast potatoes were raw, Yorkshire pudding were stale and the veg had stalks & stringy bits. It was unedible and the waitress never even asked why all 5 of us had left the majority of our meals. We asked for a box to take the meat for our dogs, expensive dog food! So disappointed as I thought this was going to be a lovely place to eat. For the price you would except better.

A lovely stay. Warm welcome and staff are very friendly. Room (pilgrim) was well equipped and very clean. View beautiful from both bedroom and bathroom! Breakfast nicely cooked and good quality ingredients. Would definitely stay again.

We often go the the pub quiz on Thursday nights. Excellent atmosphere, great food and lovely staff. Had a very uncomfortable experience a few weeks ago when a family became verbally abusive towards us when we asked them not to research questions on their phones. They said they were emailing, but many witnesses, including staff, observed them googling answers to the quiz sheet questions. I am so grateful for the staff for looking after us after the barage of abuse we received. We felt physically unsafe until the staff stepped in and the manager dealt with the abusive family. This was such a deviation from what is usually such a fun and fair night. Thank you everyone at the Peacock at Barlow and thank you David Box for such an entertaining quiz!

Have been to the Peacock a number of times over the past few years. The dining area is lovely with great views and the service is good. However friends and family have been aware of the prices creeping up and today we all felt the prices were over the top eg. £20 for cottage pie?! It is no wonder that the restaurant was quieter than we have ever seen it. There are a number of very good eating places in the area who charge significantly less.

Have been here many times and really enjoyed it until today. I was there with my puppy meeting a friend and was told by a member of staff to not have her on my knee as all dogs have to be on the floor. I don’t think I would’ve minded but I was there yesterday and no one said anything! She only said it due to a table next to us complaining about it to her however, members of staff were repeatedly passing by our table and she decided to say something when we’d finished our food and she had been on my knee the whole time we were there so, how come she didn’t mention it when we first arrived? She said it’s “the owner’s policies”. If you have set policies in place please make sure all members of staff are aware of it, as I know that one of the members of staff that was serving my table yesterday was a member of management. It’s not a big deal however, it was enough to have put me off from returning again.

The room was neat and the food was delicious.

Have not been here for a long time. Had lunch here, service was very friendly and efficient. Food was great and reasonably priced. Will certainly be making it a more regular stop off.

Excellent food & staff, the Sunday lunch was the best ever

Had reunion meal here for 12. Food served quickly all good quality. Also in house brewery with three ales. Staff very helpful. Recommended.

Went to the Thursday night pub quiz and was only there 10 mins before the locals accused me of cheating even through the quiz hadn’t started at that point. I was only checking an urgent email! Lots of abuse followed and then we were asked to leave by the manager who didn’t even bother to listen to 2 sides to a story. He clearly needs to go on a management course. I think 1 star is too generous I would not recommend to anyone unless you got in with the “in crowd”

Had Sunday lunch very expensive for what you got meat was very tough there was 4 of us one had beef one had chicken one had lamb one had pork all tough I’ve had better at a 3rd of the price not big servings either the Yorkshire pudding was very dry

Top drawer! The room was fantastic, staff, very pleasant and welcoming, great food, wonderful location. Brilliant all round.

Went for a meal. The food was overpriced but very tasty. They got the changes to our order correct. The problem was the length of the wait. It took nearly 40 minutes to get our food. For me that is too long.

Had a nice lunch. Lovely place to visit

Great, modern rooms with comfy beds. The restaurant is fantastic and the staff very friendly and couldn't do enough for you! Would definitely recommend if you're in the area!

Fantastic food and great service. I'll be back!!!

A fantastic place for a drink or to eat looking over the Derbyshire Dale's. It has its own micro brewery where you can drink or buy there homemade ales. The meals were excellent and tasty, considering this was my first time but it won't be my last The service was excellent. Well worth the visit

Everything was so nice!! Room sparkling clean and very newly renovated. Breakfast so delicious !🍳 And the view of the farm fields!! 🤩

Faultless service, delicious food, professional and friendly staff! The rooms are exceptionally well designed with such attention to detail that many much more expensive hotels could learn a few lessons from this inn. We had a wonderful stay and will be returning!

We stayed here for the weekend and were both very impressed by our experience. All the staff were helpful, professional, polite and friendly. There was an impressive choice of food and drinks. Everything we had to eat and drink over the weekend was fantastic, the food was all cooked to perfection and well presented. The room we stayed in was beautiful and one of the nicest rooms we have ever stayed in. The whole place was immaculately clean. We cannot speak highly enough of the whole experience thank you

I’ve been here in the past, although not for a couple of years, and suggested it to my friend as somewhere to celebrate her birthday. The food, fish pie and crème brûlée for both of us, was absolutely superb and I was left feeling cross that I’d not eaten here for some time! There was a wonderful atmosphere, particularly considering that we were there at lunchtime and not in the evening when places are often livelier. Reservations aren’t possible but the pub is fairly large and it seems that would-be diners can usually get a table without too much difficulty; we certainly had no problem at peak time on a Friday. The location is beautiful too, especially when the weather is kind and you can make the most of the stunning views. With such a high standard of food and service, coupled with a buzzing atmosphere, this place is highly recommended.

spent the whole day there, food was great,staff are very friendly,service is great and the views and scenery are fantastic.would recommend it for a day out for all

Had evening meal, stayed over night and had breakfast for my birthday. What a wonderful stay I had. Meal with a group of friends and I decided to treat myself to an overnight stay too. The Bodecia room is amazing. So warm and inviting. I love the hanging space and the umbrella stand. (They were too big to get in my car 😂) We had a group meal and all my very choosey friends enjoyed their evening meals. I had breakfast and the yoghurt sundae didn't disappoint. My self and now a fair number of friends will be saying with you again. Well done to everyone at The Peacock.

Great rooms great service and lovely breakfast.

The food here is absolutely delicious and the service staff are just so lovely and polite. It’s actually a pleasure to watch such a young team of staff work so in harmony together. The Sunday dinners are A1 as are the week day food menu. Cottage pie is my favourite.

I stayed for a work trip and found all the facilities to be very good. Rooms kept super clean and liked the spcial touch of having a scone left in the room for me. Views from the bathroom were idyllic - shame I didn't have more time to explore the amazing countryside which was so accessible. The rooms were very modern looking in appearance, which all added to a "highly recommended" experience. Foodwise, I only had breakfast which was excellent, but we sat in the bar the night before and saw some fantastic looking plates coming out.

Great place for a stop over. Lovely room, good beer and tasty food. It was incredibly busy on quiz night which made it a less than intimate setting for dinner. I’m sure other nights are less hectic.

We went here and hired the private dinning room for my parents 50th Anniversary. We could not have had a better experience, the service was wonderful and so was the view. The food was delicious too!!!

first time visiting and we absolutely will be returning. It was a pleasure start to finish what a gorgeous place, fantastic view staff was so amazing and efficient we was so impressed! The food! oh my goodness was divine! 😍👌

Went for a meal. We've eaten here many times and have always enjoyed everything as its s lovely place with great staff, good food, alfresco seating with a stunning view. We were very surprised that the chicken dinner was approximately £20, which is quite over priced in our opinion and on top of that it was an extra pound for a yorkie pudding! All the menu prices are high. It's the first time we've been where the restaurant was virtually empty at teatime, perhaps this reflects the increased prices?

The Easter special chocolate fondant was absolutely gorgeous. 100% recommend. Lovely place to sit out in the summer time as well.
