The Peacock at Rowsley

This charming boutique hotel is perfectly situated for visitors to enjoy local historic houses.

Located in the beautiful Peak District National Park, the Peacock at Rowsley began life as a manor house in the late 1600s. Then known as Rowsley Manor, it was built for the Steward of nearby Haddon Hall and remains part of the Haddon Estate to this day.

The beautiful residence became a hotel in the 1830s and has been a haven for discerning travellers for the last 180 years.

The Peak District boasts an impressive number of historic houses including the magnificent Chatsworth, the medieval splendour of Haddon Hall, Bess of Hardwick’s masterpiece – Hardwick Hall, and smaller properties full of character, like Eyam Hall.
