We had stayed in Leek the year previously so we knew a little about the town centre and the surrounding area but we had not shared this experience with our family which we were able to do in this property. It was superbly situated, right in the centre with free, on street, 24 hour parking just around the corner and 30 minute drop off parking right outside the property. This was almost a last minute booking so when we tried to book restaurants for 7 people, we were unable to do so. No problem - the property had sufficient facilities for us to cook ourselves and a wonderful 'roof' garden to eat in. The weather, of course, was superb too, so we had the best of everything. The hosts communicated really well, with all the information we needed and also supplied us with a wonderful bottle of Prosecco - most unexpected but really appreciated.

We had a couple of minor mishaps with a dislodged handrail up to the garden which was not a major problem and a bolt on the front door which came dislodged but nothing that could not be sorted out. One or two of our party commented on the road noise at the front of the property but it did not affect me or my husband who were both in a front bedroom. Perhaps a window covering in the shower room would make it more aesthetically pleasing and there did not seem to be any extractor system in the bathroom. I am being extremely 'picky' here and I cannot emphasise what a lovely property this was.
