Sadlers Loft
Set with the grounds of Staunton Harold Hall, a privately owned Georgian Mansion, is this fully refurbished, beautifully finished, comfortable apartment, perfect for a couple looking to get away from it all and visit the local attractions the area has to offer. Situated on the 1st floor is the open plan kitchen/living/dining room which leads into the spacious King bedroom that enjoys views from the window overlooking the lake and estate. The estate stretches over 2000 acres and includes a mix of farmland, woodland, lakes, and a beautiful 17th-century church. You are welcome to wander and explore the grounds during your stay whilst spotting the local wildlife. Sadlers Loft boasts a lovely, enclosed garden that you and your four-legged friend can enjoy whilst overlooking the beautiful lake and scenery. The Hall is now home to a multi-generational family and is also used for conferences, events, and weddings.
Sadlers Loft is within the converted stable block, now home to the Ferrers Centre for Arts and Crafts. Here you can discover local artisans including upholstery, metal work, deli and artisan bakery, gallery, framers, blacksmiths, ceramics plus a fantastic tearoom and a beauty and holistic retreat to name but a few so you can enjoy brunch or lunch within a stone’s throw of your holiday home without the clearing up!
Within the hamlet of Staunton Harold is a garden centre and a choice of country pubs where you can enjoy some great local fayre. The neighbouring National Trust Calke Abbey is a must see, depicting the tale of the dramatic decline of a country house estate. There are many other historic houses and buildings to see in the wider area including National Trusts Stoneywell, Kedleston Hall, Sudbury Hall and Duffield Castle and Chatsworth House, Whatton House and Gardens and Melbourne Hall. In the northwest of Leicestershire and in the National Forest, close to the border of Derbyshire there are many places of interest including Ashby-de-la-Zouch, famous for its ruined 15th-century castle, Alton Towers for thrill seekers, Hicks Lodge, a great place to walk, cycle and spot some unique wildlife, or enjoy a paddle at the outdoor lido swimming pool at Hood Park. Donington Park race circuit is just over 5 miles away and stages some great racing events, driving experiences and track days. The Peak District National Park is approximately 30 miles away where you can enjoy the great outdoors and plenty of outdoor activities.
