Butterton Moor Hay Loft, located in Leek, Staffordshire in the heart of England, is a charming vacation home that sleeps 8 guests in 3 bedrooms. The converted hayloft features a spacious country dining kitchen, a cozy living room with family entertainment options, and attractive bedrooms including a large king size bedroom and a family bedroom with an ensuite shower room. The outdoor spaces offer a variety of amenities such as an outdoor cooking area with a pizza oven and BBQ, a large garden for children to play, and a patio area to enjoy the sunset.
The property also includes an indoor swimming pool, a snooker room with a full-size antique snooker table, and shared facilities with Butterton Cottage, which sleeps 4. Nearby attractions include Alton Towers theme park, Chatsworth House, and picturesque Peak District villages, as well as opportunities for horseback riding, sailing, canal boat hire, and scenic walks in the Manifold Valley and Thors Cave. Guests can also visit local pubs serving locally sourced food and enjoy the shared swimming pool, pizza oven area, and billiards room.
Guests are welcome to have visitors for the day, but the swimming pool is for residential guests only due to insurance restrictions. Certain areas of the property, such as the stable yard and fields where horses graze, are off-limits to guests for safety reasons. Guests are advised not to feed the horses unless accompanied by the hosts. The property is non-smoking, and guests are asked to smoke outside and away from the stable yard area to prevent grass fires during dry spells.
