  • "Fantastic cottage and setting."

    Minor issue with sink being loose and toilet seats moving. Would recommend and will be back next year

    Thank you for your feedback and we apologise some of the sanitary wear were loose, this was rectified immediately post your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back next year! Property Owner

  • "A simply stunning place to stay."

    The views of the lake are incredible, even on rainy days. And on those rainy days there was nothing nicer than lighting the log burner and settling down with a good book. The house itself is gorgeous, finished to a high standard, with some lovely touches (thanks for the fizz). The hot tub was a fantastic bonus. I wish we'd booked for longer, just what was needed to recharge the batteries.

    We are delighted you enjoyed the stay and feel fully refreshed. We very much look forward to welcoming you again soon. Property Owner

About the location

RUDYARD LAKE

Leek 4.5 miles.

Rudyard Lake lies in a thickly wooded hillside area of the Staffordshire Moorlands. The 2.5 mile-long lake, part of which is a conservation area, offers many activities including sailing, boating and fishing, as well as many lovely walks and cycle routes and is a haven for wildlife, flora and fauna. There is a small shop and cafe on the lake, as well as a steam railway, a sailing club which offers courses for all abilities, and a hotel with a friendly bar and restaurant. Just 4.5 miles away is the hillside market town of Leek, known as 'The Queen of the Moorlands'. Leek boasts numerous antique shops, real ale pubs, restaurants and a local park and leisure centre. The town’s cobbled market place has many examples of fine Victorian architecture influenced by William Morris, a reminder of when the town was a silk manufacturing centre. The Three Shire Head is close by, the meeting point of Cheshire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire, as is Tatton Park, a beautiful historic estate with manor house, landscaped gardens, parkland, shops and a restaurant. Styal County Park and Gawswirth Hall are also well worth a visit, and Alton Towers and the beautiful Peak District National Park are just a short drive away.
