    Very friendly and helpful owners. Really enjoyed our stay.

  • Corinna

    It’s lovely, warm and clean. The beds were comfy and even had tv’s in the bedrooms. My son loved seeing the cats every morning. There’s plenty of space to park outside. Fully equipped kitchen, even had an air fryer. Only 10 minutes from Alton Towers was a bonus. Easy key handover. Good communication. We will 100% book to stay again. Highly recommend.
