Family-friendly vacation rentals in Staffordshire

Probably the best little get away we have ever done. Never stayed somewhere so amazing and beautiful, the fairy lights and flowers as the sun set and the night sky began to appear was just incredible. We made pizzas in the fire oven, went on a lovely forest walk and Emma even went the extra mile and provided a birthday cake for my girlfriend’s birthday which was such a lovely touch. Don’t hesitate, just book this now if you are ready for a perfect reset from normal life. Thanks Emma x

So enjoyed our stay at the Old Wash House. Everything was perfect from location to cottage & hosts couldnt have been any more accommodating. So many special touches from the freshly baked warm bread hanging on our door in the morning to the fire lit for our arrival. We loved it all & def hope to return ❤️ 😍

Very cosy, stylish and relaxing place to stay - lovely views, great pub 5 mins walk away and lots to do in the local area. Highly recommended!

Great location and a very helpful host.

A wonderful set up at Ford Whetley. Idea for walking in the Peak District and great pubs with food within easy reach (recommend pubs at Onecote and the Black Lion at Butterton.) Louise was a great help in advance of our arrival and communicated really effectively. A beautiful area of the country. Would recommend this cottage to anyone - you won't be disappointed. Thanks again Louise!

A beautiful lodge in the most perfect location. A great stay had for two elderly ladies who found the lodge very accessible for their mobility issues. Thank you Richard and Terry.

Incredible stay. Nathan and Katie were the perfect hosts and created the most amazing little place to stay if visiting Alton towers. Highly highly recommend!

The hosts were incredibly kind, polite, and helpful, providing plenty of information and always being responsive and willing to help with everything. The house is amazing, just as it looks in the pictures. The surroundings are beautiful, with amazing views, and the place is spotless and well-maintained. Highly recommend!

A beautiful cottage that felt like home from home. Had all the amenities, even for the kids with Highchair, cot, cutlery etc. Beautiful gardens, can tell its all well maintained. We took a short walk to the local pub and park too which were spot on. Would definitely stay here again. thank you!

Stay was absolutely perfect. Perfect location, no need to drive to walks they were right in your doorstep & close to all the villages in the Peak District that you might want to visit. Loved it and will be back :)

We had a lovely few days at Rowan Tree Cottage. The cottage was immaculately clean and tidy and was equipped with everything you need for a confortable break. Our daughters especially loved the easter eggs in the Welcome Pack which was lovely touch for our Easter Break. Jane is a great host and very communicative from booking to check in and onwards. She also bakes a great victoria sponge :) We wouldn't hesitate to book again.

We had a wonderful stay at Paula’s cottage! Paula was a lovely host and we felt like it was home from home. Great pubs nearby and lovely walks from the village. Thank you for being so lovely! We would love to visit again soon.

wow, I was amazed with the views, the size of kithen and dinning area, rooms, numbers of toilets! it was all what we were looking for. The energy of house itself was very positive! thank you for a lovely stay!

Absolutely beautiful cottage and was made to feel at home. Perfect location for a relaxing few days, and the dog loved the secure garden. Cottage was homely inside and had all the necessary amenities, the milk and brownies were a lovely added touch. Will definitely return, cannot fault it. Sarah was also lovely and very friendly and helpful.

A wonderful cottage full of history and charm but with everything you would want in modern times - well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, cosy lounge and good shower (don’t let the wetroom put you off - it works well!) Kim was a wonderful host and the location is all you would want for an escape to the countryside. Great pubs serving breakfast, lunch and dinner in the village and several walks from the doorstep. Simply perfect.

Thank you Jane, Welcomed upon arrival. We’d had a long journey & Jane came over briefly and explained everything to us concisely & wished us a lovely stay! Superb location that included beautiful strolls along the fields! Great for walking & getting lost in the beautiful scenery. Jane’s place was spotless! Bedding & towels were lovely. Could not find one downside anywhere. The waterfall Three Shires is a five minute drive (cafe along the roadside). We parked up & took a lovely hour stroll to find it! Our first trip to a waterfall & not the last. Very attractive place & great location. The village of Leek was around a 10 minute drive & has everything in it that you need! Thank you Jane.

Beautiful place and very relaxing. Disappointed that there was no coffee machine as listed as we had purchased coffee pods, but not the end of the world. Will stay again when we visit the Peak District again.

We had a lovely time staying at the Old Angel with a large group of women. The sheer number of bathrooms was super handy with the large group number, and the living and dining spaces were super functional for a group of our size. There is a one half freezer and a large fridge, which Nicola had left some treats in which was a lovely touch. Bedrooms were well organised and very clean, with towels provided. There’s a village shop right next door, and a pub 20 meters away which was glorious in the May sunshine. Nicola and her team were very helpful in response to any questions/feedback we we had - overall we had a lovely stay and I would recommend this place to others!

Booked this as a surprise family gift for my hubby’s 60th, a family weekend away with the grandkids, and it was amazing!! We had a fabulous time, the accommodation was lovely, exactly as described! Hubby was over the moon! The pool and games room was well used by us all and made it perfect as we all got to use it basically to ourselves! The house was lovely and exactly as described! We’ll definitely be going again!

our stay at staycation cottages in bakewell was lovely. the love nest Lodge was very quaint and well equipped. the bathroom was especially layed out nicely. I enjoyed the access to the football playing area, pool area and the swimming pool. we used the bbq area once and made full use of the boot room for leaflets and information for our stay would definitely return back

We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. The space is great and as an extra bonus, you get to use a heated pool and brilliant games room. We went early Jan and there was loads of snow, as well as pretty cold temperatures, but the house warmed up very quickly and we were always more than comfortable. The property is close enough to Bakewell for a short drive or taxi ride, should you want to venture into town. We're thinking about going back in the summer.

Great host excellent communication and lovely apartment thanks again

Fabulous place - we stayed for a week - with 2 teenagers, a preteen and our dog - great field opposite to run the dog morning and evening. Plenty of beautiful walks straight from the front door. 45 minutes to nearest place to eat out. Facilities were great - lots of swimming and football played by our kids. Thanks for a great stay.

Fantastic location and lovely accommodation, what more can I say?
