Leek 3.1 miles. Nestled in the lakeside village of Rudyard, a few miles from the bustling market town of Leek, is this charming lodge. With a contemporary interior, wood panelled walls and neutral hues, this property combines a traditional feel with quality furnishings. Choose to spend those quieter evenings relaxing in the open-plan living space, with two large sofas to cosy up under a blanket and delight in the provided Smart TV, catching up with all your favourite shows. Dine together at the dining table, where you can go for a delicious meal and toast to a wonderful holiday with a well-deserved glass of champagne. The compact kitchen has plenty of preparation space and houses all the necessary appliances for a week-long stay. Resting towards the rear are three bedrooms, set up as two king-size doubles and a bunk room, suitable for friends or families. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms share a family shower room. Throw open the patio doors during the summer months and let the cool breeze wash over the interior, before stepping out to the decking area and dining alfresco. Or choose to enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot tub and let those bubbling jets work their magic on your aching muscles. While you're in the area, choose to visit Rudyard Lake or Tittesworth Reservoir, both perfectly situated for those seeking to get involved with a variety of watersporting activities. Further afield is the Peak Wildlife Park, home to a family zoo, something your little ones would delight in exploring.
