With fascinating history throughout and providing spacious accommodation, this chocolate box Staffordshire cottage is just the place for families or friends to enjoy this diverse part of the countryside. This picturesque cottage boasts original Tudor beams laced through the walls and ceilings, and low windows; a fascinating insight into the property's history. The large kitchen with dining area provides a fantastic space to socialise and chat as one of your party whips up a tasty meal, while the sitting room with its huge open fire set into a large inglenook fireplace offers the perfect spot to relax and unwind after a long day of exploration.

The parking area at the property is discreet and not visible from the road and with an electric gated entrance this is a very secure area. Blythe Bridge has a small selection of shops and pubs to enjoy, and a short drive will bring you to some very pretty Staffordshire villages including Cheadle, with its cobbled streets to explore, and Uttoxeter, if you fancy a day at the races. A little further afield is Alton Towers, while the walking and cycling of the beautiful Staffordshire Moorlands stretches for miles, and beckons you to take in the scenery. This is the perfect Staffordshire base to enjoy the area all year round!

The parking is extremely restricted, having to reverse out of a tight space. The beds are cheap and very uncomfortable, you can feel the springs through the mattress. The photo of the property is misleading, you only get a third of the property. There is no privacy, as the windows at the front of the property are overlooking the owners garden and the rear garden which you can use is overlooked by the owners main kitchen window, plus you have to walk through the owners garden to access the property, where the hot tub is located. I had to pay a £125 good house keeping deposit on top of the rental and insurance which was returned after our stay. However, this wasn't mentioned prior to our booking. I didn't receive a receipt or any information as to what I'd paid the deposit for. Terms and conditions etc. Our general experience was that everything was about the owners making as much money as possible and not about the guests stay from no welcome gifts, to cheap toilet handwash and a dirty kitchen sponge. On a personal note, we had just driven 4 hours to stallington Hall Farm only to be greeted by Tim with rules concerning the use of the property. Maybe next time have a pint of milk ready and add your rules to your A4 paper.

The owners, who live next door, were helpful and welcoming. A super country location whilst being surprisingly close to all amenities. My 7 year old wants to live here.
