I will start with the positives the pub is in a nice little village with a great bakery/deli next door (hackney deli) the staff were friendly and helpful we stayed in the phoenix room which has a lovely view over the surrounding countryside the bathroom has quality porcelanosa fixtures and fittings the shower head is huge but is coming away from the wall due to the weight of it and the waste trap from the bathroom sink is also coming away from the wall the bathroom sink is badly stained and the ceramic is crazed around the plughole and really needs replacing in the bedroom there was dust in a lot of places the telephone hadn't been dusted in a while the top of the headboard was covered in dust and needs replacing as it is looking worn and the fabric colour is fading noticeably the floor at the foot of the bed is badly marked also with some large scratches highly visible we stayed here for 3 nights and on the first night we ate here (and the only night) my wife was very happy with her garden burger meal and salad but I had the fish pie which was very small and disappointing as there was hardly any fish in the pie mainly mashed potato,and the prawns were microscopic more like shrimps and it was certainly not good value for money at £21.95 this was the reason we didn't eat here again the breakfast on every morning was very tasty but the portion sizes were very small I always ask myself when i stay somewhere new like this would I come back again the answer here would be no

We loved our stay here. It was just what we needed a wholesome family night away. The food was amazing, the views spectacular and our cottage was very cute, clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Definitely highly recommend.

Lovely, clean, food superb. Would stay again

Warm friendly staff, superb room with great amenities. Absolutely wonderful place to stay. My only slight reservation is that the hotel isn’t manned during the night between midnight and 8am which was a little unnerving. However, everything else was really perfect and I would definitely recommend the Peacock to anyone.

We had a wonderful stay at The Peacock . It exceeded all our expectations and would definately choose to stay there again if we were in the area . The room we had was very clean & stylish , and so much better than staying in a chain hotel . Would highly recommend staying there .

Beautifully decorated cottage. Breakfast was very good and all staff were helpful

Great place but breakfast isn't served until after 08:30, not very good for business travellers.

It’s was completely too ours satisfying both room, diner and breakfast

Outstanding hotel, I will be visiting again when working in area

Wow! The most beautiful nights stay at The Peacock, the scenery, the room, the food, the staff. I didn't want to leave. I LOVED the little touches - the Peacock shortbread, the glass bottles for water/milk, bath salts. I've stopped in a lot of hotels and I have to say this stay beats them all. Perfect! Thanks so much. I hope to be back soon.

A gorgeous stay in Barley Cottage. It’s such a cute and well equipped cottage in the most perfect location. The bed was huge and so comfy. Highly recommend.

Lovely room, great staff, excellent food and a wonderful location - the views are stunning. This was our second visit, why wouldn’t you come back, it’s just great. Just wish we lived closer! We will be back next year for our third stay at the exceptional Peacock at Barlow

Perfect - thank you so much

Lovely hotel in a lovely location. Room was immense. The only problem was a very noisy air conditioning unit that stopped us using it in a heatwave. Would have loved to have stayed longer. Another time. We'll be back

I have stayed at the Peacock a few times now as the location is stunning and the rooms never fail to disappoint. They are clean and the bathrooms always have the wow factor. The food in the restaurant is also great, the only downside was the service, we didn’t get our wine for over half an hour and had to ask three times for it from different staff. However I will be back again!

Wonderful staff, wonderful food and wonderful room. Stayed in the Goldings this time x

Stayed in the cottage. It was beautifully decorated and a really comfortable bed. The staff were very friendly and willing to help and the food was amazing.

Beautiful boutique stay in beautiful setting. Was upgraded to Fuggles room. Amazing room and comfy bed. Lovely breakfast.

Kitchen closed early but staff made me a superb sandwich and desert. Breakfast in the morning extremely good and cooked to order.

I'm not usually one to leave a review, but this place was exceptional. Very friendly and helpful staff, lovely room with with no expense spared, the food menu had great options was well priced and very tasty. I would highly recommend this place.
