The hillside market town of Leek, known as “The Queen of the Moorlands” is situated on the western side of The Peaks and is surrounded by lovely Moorland countryside. The town has a charming cobbled market place and there are many examples of fine Victorian architecture influenced by William Morris - a reminder of the town’s prosperity when it was renowned as a silk manufacturing centre.

This is a fabulous cosy Leek cottage, which is full of history and charm, set in a quiet cobbled side street of Leek, Staffordshire. Exuding history, this Leek cottage is just perfect for exploring the Staffordshire Moorlands and the Peak District beyond. Set over three floors and overlooking the church, this historic cottage in Leek was built in the 1540s, and boasts the original bread oven, original oak beams, low doorways and the exposed timber-framework from the 16th Century. The contrast between old and new works perfectly together in this Leek cottage, with a fully fitted kitchen and woodburner-effect gas fire in the sitting room, making this a tranquil retreat for all. Outside, this Leek cottage has an enclosed courtyard overlooking the mews houses and the park beyond. Leek offers a wide selection of shops, including vast antique emporiums, bookshops and galleries, along with a number of restaurants and real ale pubs. A little further on is the fantastic Roaches, which is ideal for walking, climbing and mountain biking, or just a place where you can admire and take in outstanding views and scenery. Tittesworth Reservoir and visitors' centre is just two miles away, the Churnet Valley Steam Railway is 15 minutes' drive and popular Alton Towers is also within driving distance. This historical Leek cottage is an excellent base for exploring all that this area has to offer.

We loved the cottage, it was very quirky and had everything we needed for our stay!
Miss Stark, Burgess Hill, March 2013

The proximity of the cottage to the town centre. The people were all very friendly in the town and the food was good in at least three establishments. Overall a pleasant break in a very pleasant cottage.
Mrs Ten-Cate, Ulverston, September 2012

The property was quaint and very comfortable, particularly the beds! The location was very central with lots of local pubs and restaurants within a couple of minutes walk.
Mr McQuade, Juniper Green, July 2012
