Clean and great location. Lovely breakfast

Great location for Alton Towers. Clean, freshly refurbished and an excellent breakfast. Single beds in the Twin we stayed in were 2'6" beds (3' would be nicer) but perfectly comfortable. Electric shower was new and bathroom spotless. Would be nice if the shower was pumped so had more pressure but this is just me being picky. We will definitely stay here again.

Lovely b&b near Alton Towers

An absolutely lovely B&B. Owners are great, know everything about the local area and are accomodating to dietary requirements. We went for 2 nights as part of an Alton Towers trip, and it was perfect - around 10 mins drive to the park. Breakfast was lovely, especially the homemade jams! Will definitely look to stay again when we are in the area

What a fabulous find - 10 mins from Alton Towers!

What a lovely find. We would not hesitate in staying here again. Everything we needed was provided and it was lovely to wake up and be able to have a cooked breakfast. Alton Towers was 2 miles away - a 10 minute drive - and it was the perfect location at the end of a busy day. I would not hesitate in recommending the Beehive to others.

The perfect place to stay :)

Love, love, loved it here. I cannot fault anything. Hot drinks in your room, toiletries and towels included. Freshly made breakfast. Their speciality is definitely a must to try! Less than 5 minutes drive to Alton Towers and Jo is very informative about the rides, which is very handy. Will definitely be back.

Great stay, lovely host, amazing full english breakfast, room and accommodation was spotlessly clean, it's in a small village with no shops other than a pub (doesn't serve food) so you have to drive ten minutes to the nearest town (Cheadle) which has a supermarket, several take-aways, pubs (Wetherspoons included) etc. It's ideally situated for Alton Towers which is why we stayed. Would definitely stay again!

Excellent for walkers and Alton Towers

Wonderful small B&B with friendly hosts. Interesting building and village. Lovely walks from the door. Convenient for Alton Towers (via some small roads). No dinner served but food available within a short drive or delivery from nearby takeaways (information available from hosts or website). Small car park within grounds and nearby parking for larger vehicles. Highly recommended. Room scrupulously clean with daily housekeeping.

Lovely location and staff. Very comfy. Lovely breakfasts. Only downside was the breakfast was only served between 8-9 so if you accidently overslept, as we did twice, you're SOL and you're buying breakfast in uttoxeter, which isn't a bad thing as there is lots of great places to eat. Otherwise, lovely accommodations

Perfect stay, couldn't ask for more

My wife and I had a lovely two-night stay to visit Alton Towers and our Beehive stay was perfect. The location is idyllic, tucked away in a little village along the river, whose sound provided great ambiance through our open window (we stayed in the Premier King). It is also extremely convenient for visiting the theme park, less than two miles away with our dinner location of choice for both nights (The Star at Cotton) smack in the middle. We were greeted by Jo, who provided tremendous, friendly customer service throughout our stay including during breakfast, during which we enjoyed high quality English breakfasts w/ coffee, juice, and homemade jams. Our room also had a kettle w/ tea, coffee, hot chocolate, milk, water bottles, biscuits and a fridge. The room is very comfortable and accomodating, having clearly been renovated while keeping its classic charm (smart TV, plenty of outlets incl. USB chargin ports, etc). I really appreciated the nice, large shower at the end of a couple long days. We'd love to stay again and expect to do so. I doubt there is a more relaxing, tidy, tasty, comfortable, convenient and afforable place to stay in the area. The personal touch from our hosts just made everything a little bit better.
