Wonderful 34th wedding anniversary getaway.

Liked: Room 15 Two Night Stay. They say the most important asset of a company is the staff. This is especially pertinent to The Peacock. All staff are professional, personable and make you feel welcome and important from the moment you step through the door. Our receptionist led us to our room and explained various aspects of the room and hotel services available. Our room was cool (air-conditioning) large, well furnished, spotlessly clean and overlooking the lovely gardens. The bed was large and comfortable. There was a range of teas and coffees, chocolates, large TV, bathrobes and slippers. The onsuite bathroom was well stocked with toiletries, shower was hot and towels fluffy. We had prebooked a table for dinner but sampled drinks in the bar beforehand from a knowledgeable barman who offered me a sample of local beers before I made my choice. My wife had a white wine recommended by the barman and found it to her taste. Service at dinner was faultless from the young lady serving us. She was attentive without being intrusive, polite, friendly, and also knowledgeable about the various dishes on the menu. My wife and I had three courses each and couldn't fault any of them. Next morning we had breakfast on the terrace in the early morning sunshine. Again the service and attentiveness of staff was excellent. The full English was freshly cooked, tasty and hot. I can specifically recommend the Berry, Yogurt and Granola bowl. I would like to name specific staff for special mention, but to be honest all the ones that dealt with us were superb. Well done team!
Disliked: Only being to be able to stay two nights!

Superb

Liked: Staff were very friendly and helpful. A beautiful and peaceful place to stay.Lovely gardens and Riverside. Breakfast was excellent and could be served on terrace, which was really nice.

Welcoming, comfortable and relaxing

Liked: Everything about the hotel indicated how much the friendly and welcoming staff prioritise their guests' comfort. Bedrooms are relaxing with thoughtful touches such as a jug of fresh milk for hot drinks. The dinner menu was delicious, with imaginative, beautifully cooked and attractively presented choices. Breakfast was also a pleasure. The hotel location is great to explore The Peak District by car or on foot. We enjoyed circular walks straight from the door, stopping for lunch at attractive traditional pubs in neighbouring villages.

Superb
