Our boutique hotel near Bakewell is rooted in a tradition of culinary excellence. Proud bearers of three AA Rosettes, we are defined by a commitment to seasonal, locally sourced ingredients and an unwavering attention to detail.
An unforgettable
experience
At The Peacock at Rowsley, dining goes far beyond the plate. It’s a story of heritage, passion, and precision, where each dish reflects our respect for the ingredients we use and the landscape that surrounds us.
Menus continuously evolve, guided by the seasons and inspired by the region. We are exceptionally proud to use locally sourced ingredients, working with trusted Derbyshire farmers, foragers, and artisans, sourcing produce that’s as fresh as it is flavoursome.
From the freshest vegetables to the finest cuts from nearby estates, everything we serve has a story to tell. We smoke our own salmon, we prep our own deer, we only source live crabs – because we believe the best ingredients deserve the utmost care.
We are equally mindful of individual needs and dietary requirements. Our team is passionate about creating dishes that welcome everyone to the table, without compromise on quality, flavour, or creativity.
