The property can't be faulted for its proximity to Alton Towers- a 5 min walk. From the outside it is beautiful, apart from last year's leaves everywhere. Inside is a different story. Shockingly dated and poorly maintained. Every shower screen seal had perished and leaked, the downstairs bathroom door frame was cracked and broken making it very difficult to open and close, the beds and mattresses should have been replaced years ago (sunken in the middle and sticking up at the corners) and the sofa was decades old. Clearly no money has been invested for many years - my sister stayed there 16 years ago and every piece of furniture was the same. There is also a wasps nest in the eaves of the upstairs en suite bedroom that meant we could not open the window. It's such a shame as the house itself is beautiful and the location is unbeatable, but the price charged for the poor quality of the interior is completely disproportionate. What is sad is that there a number of reviews saying the same thing but the owner doesn't seem to have taken this on board.
Could do with a bit of freshening up. A lick of paint and some tlc for the outdoor area. Needs sharper knives. Still perfectly liveable.On the plus side, great main living space and just under five minutes walk, door to door, from Alton Towers.
Four bedrooms: 1 x ground floor double with TV, 1 x double with TV, double sofa bed and en-suite bath, shower over, basin and WC, 2 x twin.Ground floor bathroom with bath, shower over, basin and WC. Shower room with shower, basin and WC. Open plan living area with kitchen, dining area and sitting area, woodburner and patio doors to courtyard
