Centrally located in the UK, guests can explore the delights of rural Staffordshire and Derbyshire with ease. For those who love the outdoors, Cannock Chase AONB and the Peak District National Park are nearby, and for the adrenaline fix, plan a day trip to Alton Towers (18 miles) or a flying lesson at Tatenhill Airfield (3 miles).

Entering through the front porch, you have an abundance of space on the traditional hard floor to shake off the outdoors, wipe down the dogs and get yourself cosy for the rest of the day.

The low ceilings and quaint intimate rooms welcome you with warmth, and downstairs there are several living spaces for you to come together and relax. The traditional farmhouse kitchen has everything you need to feed the group, who can gather at the kitchen s breakfast table to enjoy the chef s work if numbers are low, or meet in the airy dining room in the next room.

When you re ready to settle down for the evening, choose between the cosy snug space, or the wood burner and Smart TV in the main living room. Upstairs, the comfort and style continue into the four beautifully renovated bedrooms, each with its own colour theme and soft linen.
