A charming 1912 stone-built terraced cottage with wonderful views of the Churnet Valley, at the heart of the Staffordshire moorlands. At the bottom of the garden sits a Shepherd’s Hut which overlooks woodland in the valley beyond, giving guests total privacy in which to unwind. Perfect for a cosy romantic getaway, or special break with family and friends. This traditional Staffordshire miner’s cottage combines original features with hand-picked contemporary furnishings, making it a warm and homely base for hearty walks from the door, or simple rest and relaxation. Upstairs, the cottage has two luxury bedrooms, both with feature fireplaces and Farrow & Ball finish, with the rear bedroom offering beautiful English countryside views. The well-equipped fitted kitchen boasts a range cooker and Staffordshire ceramics, with a farmhouse table for guests to relax with friends when dining in together. A cosy woodburner is at the heart of the tasteful sitting room, with French doors leading onto the patio. The pretty hamlet of Foxt has the Fox & Goose village pub serving real ale and good food, plus Hetty’s Tea Room by the Caulden canal – whilst the nearby village of Ipstones has a village shop/Post Office, excellent butcher, and two village pubs.
