About this property

Situated on the outskirts of the thriving town of Leek, in Staffordshire, and resting alongside the Peak District National Park, is this wonderful barn conversion. Parlour Barn provides an exceptional base for exploring all this picturesque region has to offer, with a wonderfully modern decor inside, giving you a warm and welcoming feeling. Spend you evenings in the open-plan living room, with a lovely L-shaped sofa to curl up on, and a woodburning stove for that extra bit of warmth. The kitchen has all the appliances you could need to cook up a storm for the whole family, with a large dining area for family gatherings. There are three lower ground floor bedrooms, all exceptionally decorated with modern furnishings and their own TV's and are individual to store your personal items and served by a family bathroom. Delight in the provided hot tub in the enclosed garden to the front, where you can sink into the warm water and let those bubbling jets work their magic. Or you can enjoy the sauna after a day's walking. Continuing to impress is the thatched deluxe heated outdoor garden hut ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining and playing games. Just down from the cottage lies the communal games shack – the ultimate Wild West-themed games room for fun with friends and family. Here you’ll find pool, air hockey, table tennis, table football and a classic arcade game console featuring 60 of those retro favourites we all know and love. There’s also a karaoke machine on hand for musical entertainment, as well as a tuned piano and guitar. A perfect place to return to after a long day sightseeing. Note: This property is next to Pastures Barn, ref. 957753 and 1024110 , together they can sleep 20 people.

    It was a luxurious treat to stay here. Loved every second of our stay. One suggestion would be that I would have found it really helpful to have the owner contact details at the point of booking so that I could check availability of the dog boarding option. Sykes wouldn’t give this to me until full payment was taken, which left it too close to the date of arrival. We used another local option which was great, but I’d have absolutely booked in with the owners had I had the ability to do so at the point of booking.

    ! A cupboard full of games (which we used a lot) and an amazing games barn with pool table, table tennis etc which was used extensively. Would definitely recommend this place, lots of open spaces for dog walking and an enclosed garden with sauna and hot tub. Would definitely return......

    We've stayed in many holiday homes over the years and this was the very best. Very good chance we'll be coming back. Our little Staffie was a bit freaked out with the frequent bird scarer or shotgun noises in the area (we visited in late July), but that's hardly the owner's fault.
