About The Peacock

Free on-site parking is a rare find in the centre of a busy Peak District town, and The Peacock has it, right on Bridge Street in Bakewell. That makes it a practical base whether you're arriving by car for a short break or passing through the Derbyshire countryside.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and the option of family accommodation, along with drinks available in the room and free WiFi throughout. A restaurant and bar on site cover breakfast and evening meals, while a snack bar and outdoor seating in the garden or picnic area offer a more casual option. Reception operates around the clock, so arrival times are flexible.

The hotel sits close to Bakewell's own attractions, with fishing, golf, horse riding and watersports all available nearby, plus walking and cycling routes through the surrounding area. Pubs, restaurants and other eateries are within easy reach for evenings out, making The Peacock a straightforward starting point for exploring the town and the wider Peak District.
