This group of Staffordshire cottages is just one mile outside the small market town of Cheadle - not to be confused with the town of the same name in Cheshire - best known for St. Giles Catholic Church, commonly referred to as 'Pugin's Gem'. The architect Augustus Pugin was commissioned to build St Giles by the 16th Earl of Shrewsbury, who lived at nearby Alton Towers, just over 150 years ago. Pugin, who helped Charles Barry with the design of the Houses of Parliament, was asked to design and build a church which would have no rival. His creation was his own tribute to inner peace and serenity and a design wonder of the Gothic Revival.

On the fringes of the Staffordshire moorlands, this lovely group of mellow brick, farm barns has recently been beautifully converted into holiday retreats of exceptional quality. Boasting smart, modern interiors and views over peaceful, pretty countryside, they sit just 1 mile from shops, pubs and restaurants in the little town of Cheadle. Footpath walking starts from the door, and the glorious Churnet Valley offers steam trains, canal boats and superb walking. Alton Towers is 5 miles as is cycle hire on the Manifold Trail in the Peak District National Park, and Leek and Ashbourne are under 10 miles. Wedgwood, Spode and Emma Bridgewater china bargains and tours, indoor skiing, bowling, swimming at Waterworld, Tamworth Snowdome, Chatsworth and Ironbridge are all easily accessible.
