Set in the peaceful Staffordshire village of Swynnerton and surrounded by greenery, this delightful brick cottage offers sumptuous accommodation to small families and space-seeking couples with the dogs in tow. With tranquil countryside trails leading from the door and the Peak District National Park only 20 miles away, this is a fantastic base for lovers of the outdoors. Enjoy everything there is to love about village life in Swynnerton, from its range of scenic walking and cycling trails to its quaint offering of local pubs and restaurants. Soak up the local landscape with a trip to Trentham Estate (4.5 miles), with its 725 acres of ancient woodland, enchanting gardens and vibrant shopping village. Children will love a day at Alton Towers (17.5 miles), while lovers of history can uncover local heritage with a visit to Wedgwood Museum or the National Trust’s Shugborough Estate (both within 17 miles).
Before stepping into this welcoming home-from-home, take a moment to appreciate your Staffordshire surroundings of verdant countryside and the sounds of nature. Head inside to find that the rural charm continues in the form of country cottage decor, exposed brick walls and homely touches. Kick off walking boots in the entrance hall before moving through to the airy and well-appointed kitchen/diner. Sleek counters and modern facilities offer all you need to cook up a feast for your loved ones, who can gather at the country-style dining table here to enjoy the chef’s work. After dinner, head through to unwind in the social heart of the home, the sumptuous lounge. Here, settle back into the soft seating that perches opposite a glowing wood burner and TV – the perfect ingredients for a cosy movie night together. Through the day, a gorgeous bay window soaks this room in natural light, creating a cosy and uplifting base for planning your next Staffordshire adventure. At the end of each day, climb the cottage stairs to the first floor and choose from two delightful bedrooms – a pretty king-size room and a cosy twin, perfect for little ones. Both bedrooms sit under the characterful, sloping eaves of the house and are served by the well-equipped family shower room with its vibrant decor.
Outside, guests will find plenty of space to unwind and soak up their peaceful surroundings. Dine alfresco in the gravelled outdoor space on balmy days, let little ones and dogs play safely on the enclosed lawn, and benefit from the convenience of off-road, private parking for two cars.
