While we were visiting and I was reminiscing over Leek in North Staffs where I was born, we agreed that we couldn't do it all in one day. Looking on the internet on tripadvisor and other sites my husband found the the starkly beautiful Stanshope Hall. One glance at the bedrooms, dining room and drawing room told us all we... More

Located at the head of Hall Dale that runs down into Dovedale, Stanshope Hall is in a great location. You can walk straight down into Dovedale or go via Alstonefield or head off to the Manifold Valley. It is also a top notch B&B - which is a bit of an understatement.
