Local Swythamley Hall, originally a hunting lodge belonging to Abbey of Dieulacres, stands in fine parkland. The area has much historic significance – close by is Gun Hill, where Cromwell is believed to have located his canon aimed at the town of Leek.

Lovely property in a lovely location, which was warm enough in the howling winds of Storm Ciara. Sitting in the conservatory admiring the view and the sheep with my morning coffee at dawn was great!

This is an outstanding cottage set in a beautiful location. The interior has been thoughtfully updated while retaining many period features. The double bedrooms are spacious. Kitchen has a big table so you can chat and cook with friends or family at the same time. Lots of sheep and birds about and perfect for a few days away from it all, while being close to Leek and Buxton. Would love to go back.
