Overview
Family-friendly bed & breakfast 10 minutes from Alton Towers with self-contained chalets and locally sourced breakfasts
Location
Dove Meadow sits 3 miles from the Alton Towers Resort entrance and a 15-minute drive from the Peak District National Park. The bed & breakfast is surrounded by organic countryside, with walking trails and cycling routes starting directly from the property. Historic Dovedale and Uttoxeter town are both a 20-minute drive away, and the village hall nearby hosts community events.
Accommodation
The Apple Tree Chalet is a self-contained detached unit with a double bed and a fold-out sofa in the lounge, plus a small kitchen with a microwave and two-ring hob. Guest bedrooms in the main house have private bathrooms, patios with countryside views, and refrigerators stocked with fresh milk, water, and fruit juice. All rooms include flat-screen TVs, tea/coffee making facilities, and fresh flowers from the garden.
Dining
Full English breakfasts are cooked with local Derbyshire bacon, free-range pork sausages, and eggs from a nearby farm, served with homemade jam and marmalade. Guests in the chalet receive breakfast delivered to their room at a chosen time, while main-house guests eat in the dining room. Pancakes with Nutella, strawberries, and cream are available for children, and special diet menus can be accommodated upon request.
Family & Pet-Friendly
The property provides board games, coloring books, and children's DVDs in the family chalet, along with Netflix on the TVs. A friendly dog named Poppy and other on-site pets create a homely atmosphere for animal lovers. Young guests can also enjoy the outdoor terrace and the view of sheep and cows in the adjacent fields.
Activities
On-site activities include canoeing, fishing, horse riding, and windsurfing, while guests can also arrange cycling or squash nearby.
