What a cute and cosy place to stay! Loved how close we were to the animals on the farm and in a great location for nice walks. The owners helped me find the place as my satnav didn't do a good job and nothing was too much trouble 😊thank you both X

Enjoy the lovely setting of this romantic spot in nature, Overlooking the rolling Cheshire\Staffordshire boarder views of 'The Roaches' and 'White Nancy'. We are very Close to Rudyard Lake with Paddleboarding and Boat hire, with an abundence of local historical walks. Rock Climbing on the Roaches, with the nearby famous 'Winking Man Rock'. We have the World famous Alton Towers Theme park within 15 miles. We have Leek, the Historical Market Town on our door step with many Antique Shops.
