Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to dress up and enjoy exceptional food together.
This Valentine’s, The Peacock at Rowsley is celebrating with a refined 10-course tasting menu, created for guests who love thoughtful cooking, warm hospitality and a truly special dining experience in the Peak District.
Whether you are planning an intimate dinner or turning the occasion into a romantic overnight escape, our Valentine’s menus have been designed to feel indulgent, relaxed and memorable, without any unnecessary fuss.

Valentine’s fine dining at The Peacock at Rowsley
Our Valentine’s tasting menu will be served on Friday 13th and Saturday 14th February, with availability already very limited on Valentine’s Day itself.
Curated by our head chef, the menu celebrates seasonal ingredients and classic flavour pairings, elevated through modern technique and careful presentation.
Across 10 courses, diners can expect a beautifully balanced journey that moves from elegant opening snacks through to rich mains, considered desserts and handcrafted petits fours. Dishes include indulgent savoury starters, a refined fish course, a luxurious beef main and a series of desserts designed to end the evening on a high note.
Rather than telling you everything, we recommend taking a moment to explore the full Valentine’s menu and discover what awaits on the night.
A dedicated plant-based Valentine’s menu
We are proud to offer a dedicated plant-based Valentine’s tasting menu, created with the same care, structure and sense of occasion as the standard menu.
Vegan diners can enjoy a complete multi-course experience, with dishes that focus on depth of flavour, seasonal produce and elegant presentation.
Wine flights to elevate your evening
To complement the tasting menu, we are offering two optional wine flights, priced at £55 per person and £75 per person for our premium selection.
Each flight has been carefully paired to enhance the flavours of each course, adding another layer to the dining experience for those who wish to indulge.

Make a night of it with a stay at The Peacock
If you would like to turn Valentine’s Day into a complete Peak District escape, we have a limited number of bedrooms available over the Valentine’s weekend.
After dinner, unwind in one of our beautifully appointed rooms featuring king-sized beds, luxury linen and thoughtful touches throughout. Staying with us means no rushing home, just a relaxed evening and an unhurried morning in the heart of the Peak District.

Celebrating Valentine’s Day across Longbow Venues
If you are hoping to dine on Saturday 14th February and tables at Rowsley are no longer available, you can still celebrate Valentine’s Day at one of our other Longbow Venues across the Peak District.
We have crafted individual 4-course menus for the 14th of February across our other venues, each offering the same commitment to quality food and welcoming hospitality.
