Highfield House

The accommodation was fantastic, very clean and well maintained.

There were great amenities and it is in a beautiful location.

Goodness me!

From the moment we walked in Highfield House delivered! It was spacious, comfortable, clean, well equipped and just delightful! We didn't want to leave :)

A lovely stay, stayed here as was nice and easy to get to The Ashes Barn wedding venue.

Really comftable suitable for families and kids.

Lovely sized house, well equipped and plenty of space for everyone.

Very large bathrooms and showers. Situated very close to a fairly main road, but this did not distract us from the lovely views of the countryside. Owners were very helpful and courteous during our stay (informing us their intention of mowing the lawn).

Highfield House is one of the best holiday cottages that my family and I have stayed in.

It is really spacious and cosy. The beds are really comfortable, the rooms are light and airy. The kitchen is really well equipped. The owners have thought of everything for the perfect stay. We would highly recommend this property to anyone.

We really enjoyed our stay at Highfield House.

Very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The Christmas decorations were an added bonus, they looked lovely. Plenty of space to park the cars on the driveway. No hesitation to return sometime in the future.

What a fabulous house.

We booked it to stay over our daughter's wedding weekend at The Ashes Barns. It was perfect for this. Spacious, spotlessly clean, very comfortable and extremely well equipped and warm. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need and I was easily able to complete a wedding cake in it! The welcome pack was clear and well written and easy to refer to. Any specific instructions were polite and respectful, rather than coming across as orders which you find in many holiday lets. Would highly recommend, particularly to wedding guests at The Ashes,as it is just a few minutes drive away.

We had a lovely stay, a great house in a great location.

It was very refreshing to find all bathrooms were well stocked with soap, toilet roll, cleaning products etc which some places don't offer. Kitchen had everything you would need, plus again essentials such as cleaning products and plenty of crockery and utensils. It was very clean and well presented. Spare blankets in lounges were a lovely touch. We will be coming back!

The house was perfect, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed.

Karen was very helpful and quick to respond to any queries. We would love to return in the future to this gorgeous house.

The house and gardens were beautiful and so spacious with plenty of room for our party of 8 and one dog.

Everything that you could think of was provided for us with a welcome bottle of milk and Prosecco left for us in the fridge. It was so easy to contact Karen if we needed anything which we didn’t. I would definitely recommend this lovely house and would love to return for another stay very soon.

The house is beautiful and big enough for everyone to have their own space when needed The property was beautifully clean The owners were attentive It has a well equipped kitchen and a separate laundry room Lovely stay!

We had an absolutely fantastic last minute weekend away at Highfield House.

Karen, the host is so quick to respond and super helpful. Nothing was too much bother. The house is just beautiful and the gardens immaculately maintained. It is so well equipped, we needed for nothing. Even non-slip mats for the baths and showers. Tea and coffee and a welcome of milk and prosecco! What a treat. Plenty of crockery and pots and pans, although we did struggle to find the glassware! I cannot fault it and we will definitely be back. The only thing that would have made our stay perfection is a stair gate for the top of the stairs. They are very steep and we had to use the travel cot as a guard for our toddler. Little ones are so well provided for here, it was really lovely to not need anything. Highchair, cot, cutlery, plats, bowls & cups. The whole place felt so well thought out. Perhaps a bit more tired than in the photos. But still utterly gorgeous. The little chairs in the lounge were a particular hit with our little girl. Would 100% recommend and will be back for sure!

Fantastic property, beautiful house.

Attention to detail is perfect and very happy with everything

Great owners Andy and Karen gave our family a lovely welcome The house is a lovely property with an enormous amount of space for our family of 5 and a dog we got lost in the property Really big master bedroom with ensuite and dressing room 3 others bedrooms bigger than expected also Lovely bathroom with walk in shower and big bath tub to relax in Nice spacious kitchen with every utensil you could imagine big fridge freezer, breakfast bar had a settee in there also which was cosy while chatting and cooking also had a small TV on wall as well which was a bit temperamental at times but I think it was due to internet to use YouTube/iPlayer but TV channels worked fine along side the kitchen is a big utility room with washing machine and ceiling airier to dry clothes The two reception room were really nice ,one cozy room with a log burner and tv ,the 2nd with a massive reclining corner sofa with PS3 also good to watch films in there as the TV was wired with a sound bar (was like being in the cinema) there was a dining area which was situated by front door/entrance hall but was used for mainly playing board games and puzzles with a big table ,outside was a big driveway/patio area and a garden which wrapped round to the side which the kids and dog loved running round in ,the BBQ was used many times due the lovely weather we had at the time with lovely views also ,wish we could of stayed longer good local supermarkets and shops and was close to local attractions (Alton Towers)

This is a supurb cottage really well equipped spacious comfortable and very homely.

Karen & Andy the hosts are lovely very helpful and we would love to return again

Highfield house was ideal for our family get together, which consisted of 6 adults, two children and a baby.

Everything had been provided you could possibly need and the owner shared her contact number in case we needed something. The only downside was abut of noise from main road nearby but when sat in the garden we could still hear the birds, of which there was a wonderful selection around the pretty garden. We had problems leaving the cottage as grandson was heard to say “but I’ don’t want to go homes, I love this house’ I have a feeling we will be returning!

The facilities were absolutely incredible.

We had 7 adults and one child and a well behaved dog and there was all the space, glasses, crockery, bathrooms, seats and bits and bobs we could ever need! Would defo recommend. The only slight issue was a couple of the front bedrooms were loud from the noise of the road on the Saturday night! It wouldn’t detract us from recommending as it really was perfect for the group and just felt like such a special house to all be together… although next time id bring a couple of ear plugs which would make the stay a definite 12/10!

The property is situated on a main road which kept a few of us awake which was not Ideal the night before the wedding.

There was no salt or rinse aid in dishwasher and only 1 dishwasher tablet which we used on the first night but then had to wash everything up as it didn’t clean properly probably due to no salt or rinse aid. The welcome tray was just a small packet of biscuit for a large house and no milk. There were a few cobwebs especially in dining area. It was ideally situated for the wedding we were attending just a Shame about the traffic unfortunately there was a major accident in that main road which caused chaos on the Saturday morning. The property itself was lovely but could do with new dining chairs as they didn’t feel very sturdy when sat on

Really lovely spacious property.

Ideal for family or groups of friends. Very comfortable and homely. Plenty to do in the area. For us it was ideal as we had a family wedding just a few miles away. Would 100% recommend and would not hesitate to book again.

The house is in a fantastic spot for walking we took a different route every day for a week and right on the door step push chair/doggy buggy friendly too.

To say how close we were to a main road once the gate was closed you are not overlooked and felt extremely secure with plenty of parking space for 2 or more cars. Even inside we were not disturbed by any road noise at all and we the 2 front bedrooms that were overlooking the road too. The house was immaculately clean both inside and out. Well equipped throughout from kitchen and bathrooms to linen, towels and pillows. Everything is finished to a high standard and well thought out. We were always warm upstairs and down and had plenty of hot water. The owners were amazing!! When we encountered a problem with the tv on the first evening they were there to assess the issue within minutes and even came back with a brand new remote that same evening in fact within the hour and had it all sorted out. Very attentive and respectful of our privacy throughout the week. We would highly recommend them and this amazing place without hesitation you will not be disappointed if you stay here!

We came and stayed here as a group of 8 for a wedding and we couldn’t fault anything at all.

The hosts were so friendly and accommodating to our needs. We can’t wait to come back here in the future x

Absolutely fantastic property!

Would 100% stay again and would not hesitate to book again. The hosts were friendly and helpful and a credit to their selves

Lovely cottage, and beautiful location, would definitely stay here again, thank you.

Lovely place the only complaint was the beds and sofas weren't very comfortable.

We had a lovely three night stay Our family of 6 adults,3 year old and 4 month old all appreciated the house.

Very spacious and comfortable Plenty of garden space for the children Our hosts were lovely Would definitely stay again

Highfield house is a beautiful home away from home.

Well equipped, comfortable and spotlessly clean. We stayed with our 4 daughters as part of a trip to Alton Tower's, which was only a 25 min drive, it was lovely to come back in the evening to the comfort and space of Highfield House. Thank you to Karen & Andrew for the use of their excellent property, we would love to return again.

We used the property as a base for my daughter’s wedding a few miles away.

Plenty of space with four bedrooms/two bathrooms and a downstairs loo. Also plenty of hot water! Ample parking in the drive. Owners live next door so handy if there are any issues(which there weren’t)

Fantastic property to stay in.

Very comfortable, clean, homely and spacious accommodation, with secure garden. So much to do in the area with great walks on The Roaches and around Wetton, and plenty to keep the little ones occupied in Leek and Buxrton - even on a wet day. A great week.

Excellent house and facilities!

The owners were also very kind and helpful and enhanced our week. The area was pretty unknown to the 4 of us pensioners. The nearby Moors, the Roaches etc are grand and Leek and its surroundings is quite exciting and relatively tourist-free.

There is so much to like about this property.

It’s got to be one of the cleanest places we’ve stayed. Everything we needed was there and there were lots of extras that made it a home from home. The owners gave a folder with lots of information, there were maps and games and even a starter set of wood for the burner should we want it. I can’t recommend it enough. A lovely, lovely house!

The only suggestions I have are the stairs are quite steep so a safety gate for little ones would be good and some lubrication on a couple of door hinges.

Everything else is great.

We absolutely loved the house.

It’s got absolutely everything you could possibly need and more! The space was perfect for six of us (2 adults, 4 children) but you could accommodate 4 adult couples very comfortably (though there would be a fight for the master bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and en-suite!). The two lounges gave us plenty of space to spread out, which was a huge help as the weather was rubbish, and the PlayStation was very much enjoyed! The kitchen is beautiful, it’s a lovely social space for cooking and chatting, and the utility room was an added bonus! The outside space is absolutely lovely as well, we just wish we’d had more opportunity to use it! If we had one (tiny) criticism, it’s the fact it’s not clear in the listing that the house is next to a main road and we did hear the traffic for the first couple of days (we had a very light sleeper with us) but once we got used to it, the noise wasn’t an issue and it certainly wouldn’t put us off booking again if we ever come back to Leek. There is so much to do in the area, the house is about quarter of an hour’s drive from the Roaches (stunning for a walk), Buxton is only half an hour away and there are lots of local National Trust places like Biddulph Grange and Little Moreton Hall which are really great for a day out. We had a great week, despite awful weather and would very much recommend the property! If we are ever visiting the again we would love to come back!

We had a great time at Highfield House.

The house is even better than on the pictures and equipped with everything you need. Also very clean and lovely decorated. Thank you so much!

Highfields House is an excellent, very 'high spec' holiday accommodation.

Very well equipped, comfortable and spacious. Owner, really friendly. The location is great for exploring Staffordshire Moorlands/White Peak District. It will be a great shame if this property decides to allow pets as furniture/floors are in perfect condition and free of pet dust, hairs and smell!

Wow what an amazing house!

Had everything we needed, was sad to leave.

Highfield House is an amazing place to stay.

It is beautifully furnished and decorated and has everything you could need. We didn’t want to leave! The accommodation made our special family birthday celebration magical. Karen and Andy are fantastic hosts, checking to see that we were settling in ok and Andy very kindly came to ‘dig us out’ after the snowfall we had. Many thanks for the extra treats left for us too. We will certainly be returning and will recommend Highfield House to family and friends. Angela and Kevin

We really loved staying at Highfield House - it's the perfect home for a get away.

Located at the edge of the Peak District we had access to Leek and lovely walks. Despite the weather we enjoyed our stay around the fireplace and the entertainment facilities. The kitchen was very well equipped and we could cater easily for the whole family. Everything was very clean and had a lovely and homely finish. And to find a welcome pack (biscuits for the kids, prosecco for the grwon ups) was a nice touch too. Thank you again for everything!

This is a great house for a family / friends get away.

Plenty of space to be together and also have alone time if required with a superb big kitchen with everything you could need!!

Very comfortable home from home - spacious, well equipped, warm - we stayed in October - and very comfortable especially for family or group of friends.

Owner readily contactable and very helpful......would book again as a great deal of thought has been given to what people may need eg garden furniture and bbq for summer months and logs for winter

Our stay at Highfield House far exceeded our expectations.

The house is stunning ... a really beautiful, family home. The decor and furnishings are very high end, as are the many facilities, gadgets and appliances the house has to offer. The attention to detail is amazing, and nothing has been overlooked. We literally had everything we needed during our time there ... except perhaps the weather! But the house was so snug, cozy and well equipped, even that didn't matter. We loved the nearby town of Leek, along with many other different places to visit within very easy reach. I would not hesitate to recommend Highfield House to any prospective visitor. When our stay was over, we didn’t want to leave! And we simply can't wait to go back!

We spent a wonderful week at Highfield House with the family.

We all immediately fell in love with this magnificent house. It is magnificently restored, tastefully, generously and comfortably furnished. The mix of country style and modern furnishings is lovely and absolutely stylish. The garden and the outdoor area are also magnificent. In addition, it is nestled in a fantastically beautiful landscape and not far from attractive shopping facilities. We can recommend it wholeheartedly!

We had a wonderful stay at Highfield House.

The cottage is one of the best equipped properties that we have stayed in and the owner has given a lot of thought in providing a comfortable and relaxing stay. The messages and recommendations from the owners were such a lovely touch. We will definitely be coming back!

Fantastic property.

location, host. Received pre call from host, and mid break asking if everything was ok, really great place, would recommend over and over!

Beautiful house and area, we loved our stay there and thank you to the owners for little touch up left for us on the arrival!

We 100% recommend Highfield House to everyone. Around the area is everything for everyone, there is a lovely pub round the corner and fishing lake 12 min walk and of course hiking places. Beautiful and we will definitely come back!

My family and I absolutely loved our stay.

The house was very clean, spacious and so well laid out. Secure parking for our cars and a clean outdoor area to sit and enjoy the countryside air. The hosts stocked the kitchen with everything we would need for our stay - including teabags, coffee and biscuits! We would definitely recommend this house to our friends and families. Huge thank you to the owners for going the extra mile with everything in the house!

We loved staying at Highfield House!

It was so comfortable and well appointed and the owners had made lots of thoughtful touches. We would definitely recommend it and would love to return.
