Groom’s Cottage

Groom's Cottage sits on a non-working farm in East Staffordshire, surrounded by footpaths that lead into local farmland and the National Forest. A nature reserve lies less than a mile away. The single bedroom sleeps two, with everything on the ground floor: an open-plan living and dining area, a kitchen equipped for cooking, and a walk-in shower room. An electric woodburner warms the space, and an enclosed garden has a barbecue.

The property is one of three adjoining cottages sharing a courtyard. Guests have access to a year-round heated swimming pool and hot tub, plus a games room and gym a few steps away. A bike store is on site. Wi-Fi is included. The village pub, serving food, is half a mile away; shops are a mile distant. One well-behaved pet is welcome. Smoking is not permitted.

The location puts you within reach of several major attractions: Lichfield Cathedral, Uttoxeter racecourse, and Sudbury Hall's Museum of Childhood are all under ten miles away. Alton Towers, Drayton Manor, Tamworth SnowDome, Calke Abbey, and Dovedale in the Peak District lie within twenty miles.
