Leek 6.9 miles. Perched in the peaceful hamlet of Ford near Leek in Staffordshire, is this lovely four-bedroom, detached barn conversion, Ford Coach House Cottage. Enjoying a superb location within the Peak District National Park with picturesque farmland views, Ford Coach House Cottage is a wonderful family-friendly dwelling for eight guests, along with two canine companions. Park-up on the ample driveway, before unloading your bags and making your way into the porch to discard any coats and shoes after your journey. Look forward to impressing your guests with your culinary skills in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, featuring a handy dishwasher, washing machine and TV, ready to enjoy the fruits of your labour at the dining table for 10 over a bottle of wine. On warmer days, dine alfresco out in the large, rear garden, where the little ones can play, and your four-legged friends can stretch their legs. After dinner, gather your loved ones in the spacious sitting room, with plenty of plush seating, where you can enjoy a film on the TV as your pooches snuggle up in front of the logburner. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom for your convenience. Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you can wash away the day with a soak in the bath or freshen up with a shower, before choosing from four well-appointed bedrooms to catch your rest in, two doubles and two twins, all of which offer idyllic views of your countryside surroundings. Explore your local surroundings, where nearby in Waterfall, you will find the welcoming Red Lion Inn or Cottage kitchen, ideal for those evening’s when you fancy a night off from cooking! The bustling town of Leek is within easy reach and offers a good selection of well-stocked shops for picking up any essentials, eye-catching Victorian architecture, art galleries, the excellent Leek Golf Club and the picturesque Brough Park where you can tuck-in to a homemade picnic. On the outskirts of the town, wildlife enthusiasts are well-catered for with the woodland setting of RSPB Coombes Valley and the family-friendly Peak Wildlife Park, there is also the Beaver Hall Equestrian Centre for those wanting to try their hand at horse riding. Next stop is Buxton where adventurers can explore the depths of the renowned Poole’s Cavern, whilst others can enjoy a leisurely stroll around the Pavillion Gardens in Buxton Park, followed by a tour of the Buxton Museum & Art Gallery or an evening of culture at the Buxton Opera House. Venture over to Ashbourne, where you will find the famous stepping stones across the River Dove, as well as the stunning National Trust setting of Ilam Park nearby, the spectacular Thors cave, rising 360ft above the river Manifold with its 60ft entrance, has over the years yielded ancient bones and artefacts dating back to 600 BC, whilst the river itself provides excellent walks and cycling opportunities through wonderful rural scenery. Continue further into the Peak District National Park where you will find the attractions of Nine Ladies Stone Circle, Throwley Old Hall, Chatsworth House and Mam Tor. Alton Towers itself is nearby so get your adrenaline pumping on the fast rides, relax in the large waterpark or indulge in a luxurious spa treatment. All of this awaits at Ford Coach House Cottage.
