Low speed creaking at the rear, especially if you can hear it when you lightly push up and down on the boot/hatch and it sound as if its coming from just in front of a rear wheel is most likely to be the bottom ball joint/s of the rear anti roll bar link rod/s. The lube dries out and they 'squeak/creak.
Very easy to fix - wheel off, link rod off (17mm spanners for bottom joint, 13mm for top bush bolt). Carefully remove ball joint boot clip (spiral spring), peel back rubber boot and re-lube the joint, re-fit boot,clip, link rod, and wheel - job done.
