Lovely hotel

Our second time at the Upper House and it didn't disappoint - we had a comfortable stay (in the same room as on our first visit!), and the food was as good as we remembered. We enjoyed the gardens in bloom and the walks from the doorstep. I'm sure it won't be our last visit.

Quiet rural location in a converted country house. There are a variety of room choices, all include breakfast. The restaurant has some great choices for breakfast. Dinner menu is also good. There’s a cosy little bar in the hotel and other pub and dining options are a short drive away. I have stayed here around 10 times and it is my go-to choice in the area.

Another comfortable stay whilst visiting my parents in the village. It’s a beautiful property ideal for walks around the area whilst offering home comforts and a great breakfast. I always have a great night sleep and the bathroom facilities are really modern. Customer Service just needs to be a little more personable as I stay here quite regularly and they haven’t yet realised with the ‘welcome to me back’ however it’s perfect for my family.

Great hotel

Really nice hotel,which is refreshing when hotels are becoming more of the same. It’s got a lovely ambiance and sits in grounds which are just perfect for a walk before dinner. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful plus the restaurant serves nice food at a very competitive price. We stayed there after my wife went to the Emma Bridgewater factory which is just up the road. It’s also close to the Wedgewood experience if you’re into that sort of thing. A real plus for me were the electric chargers for the car too. Thoroughly recommended.

Restfull Stay in beutifull Suroundings

Nice to be in good suroundings in an historic building. Breakfast very good. Dinner is high quality but quite expensive and the portion sizes are a bit on the small side for hungry men. Good for couples visiting area or business people with larger budgets.

Comfortable Stay

Lovely family-run friendly hotel. Spotlessly clean and always welcoming and helpful staff. I arrived late and tired and immediately felt relaxed. Great choice at breakfast. Enough free parking. Walkable to the village and a lovely National Trust countryside. Two easy to follow walk routes available at reception. Set in a beautiful garden and grounds, on a hill so great views. The room was very comfortable and had everything you would need.

Lovely friendly staff. Relaxing setting, quiet location and beautiful scenery. Hotel had loads of character. Only downside we were unable to get in the restaurant both evenings as fully booked with external guests. We were over the main function room which had a wedding in on the 2nd night, however, it did end at 11.30pm. So would check ahead if you want to eat there in the evening. Overall a good stay.

This was our second stay at the property. We returned not only for the beautiful location & accommodation, but we also enjoyed our dining experience very much. The included breakfast was far above average in terms of selection, taste, and service, and the dinner options were superb. Parking is convenient and included. There is a lift if you need it, and they also have improved their Wifi since our last visit last year. A loud event took place at the hotel our last night but we received communication about it beforehand so it wasn't a problem (music off before 11pm). Our only regret was not taking advantage of the gorgeous lounge for an evening drink!

Upper House visit

Stayed for 3 nights at the Upper House in a double room. This was our second stay at the hotel. We were visiting the British Ceramics Biennial and the hotel is in a good position near Wedgewood to visit the museum and to get to the other exhibitions in Stoke itself. The hotel is in a delightful position outside Stoke near countryside providing excellent walks. It is walkable to the Wedgewood museum. It is also a short drive to Trentham Gardens. The room was comfortable and the food good (breakfast and evening meals). In particular the service by the hotel staff was excellent and very helpful. In particular the dining room staff were excellent - nothing was too much trouble. We would recommend this hotel for visits to Stoke.
