| ‘Manners maketh man’: and very successfully too, if I may say so, even if the finished article does need the occasional makeover. Having benefited from that experience Manners made Peacock: yes, it’s a colourful tale. Having been brought back into the family fold after a lapse of forty-five years, the fabulous bird has truly come home to roost. India Mahdavi has transformed the rooms, and antique furnishings from Belvoir once again sit happily alongside the Inn’s log fires and mullion windows.
Managers Ian and Jenni Mackenzie ensure that there is no pique in the Peak District, and visits to nearby Chatsworth, Matlock and Haddon Hall come highly recommended. There are no flies on Gordon Ramsey trained Chef Mathew Rushden, but plenty on the nearby rivers Wye and Derwent, where the hotel owns ten miles of superb dry fly trout fishing. While Lord Edward battles to keep the draught out of nearby Haddon Hall, his guests happily drink it, hand-pulled from the wooden barrels in the cellar below.
