“There's a certain appeal to be found in Stafford, close to Alton Towers and Shugborough Hall, that lets you wake up to the sounds of a working farm. The buildings, converted 160-year-old barns, retain a historical charm alongside modern conveniences like self-catering facilities, making this a practical choice for families or anyone seeking a quiet rural break with ample parking.”

the room included a microwave and some kitchen utensils. the pub was a 30-minute walk away.. i found plenty of parking space. the little extras were helpful, such as the toaster, microwave, and plates.
i noticed dust and some cobwebs around the skirting boards. a small window and a low-wattage light bulb made it difficult to see inside. when a towel fell behind the radiator, it came out dirty.

the shower was lovely (i especially liked the water pressure). the fridge and microwave in the room were helpful. i was able to store some drinks and snacks.
the room was smaller than i expected. also, the room looked to not have been vacuumed well before my arrival. there were crumbs on the rug. the toilet brush was disgustingly dirty too.

the lady showing us around was lovely. the shower provided a great hot water flow. we checked in early because of a wedding. the motel accommodated this request, helpful.
the room smelled musty upon arrival. the fixtures looked either old or quite basic. i found the bed uncomfortable. it consisted of a board under a thin mattress on a metal frame , made noises when i moved.
