The setting feels quietly practical, with space to slow down after time on the road or on the trail. The 12 charming rooms and 2 cottages offer a simple, comfortable base, and each one comes with a private bathroom and tea and coffee-making facilities. Some stays may also make use of a balcony or terrace, where available, giving you a chance to take in the surrounding views before heading out. The hotel’s layout keeps the rhythm relaxed. A restaurant and welcoming bar make it easy to stay in for meals, while breakfast is available and meals are served seven days a week from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Guest services, parking, internet, and heating support an easy arrival and a straightforward stay, and the property also offers family-friendly touches, accessibility features, and pet-friendly accommodations where available. In and around Leek, the pace is shaped by walks, outdoor activities, and the landscape beyond the town center.

Positive:
Great location and setting. Easy to find and park.
Negative:
Big wait times for food and mixed up orders (at breakfast and dinner) were the biggest let downs.
Room was spacious and comfy but not the cleanest. WiFi signal didn't stretch to our room which meant the TV didn't work.
