A note from Jo & Rob

Leek is a traditional market town, packed with antique shops and plenty of cafes and restaurants making it a great place to have a rummage, you’ll be surprised at what you might find. Combine this with a visit to The Roaches a prominent rocky ridge line that rise above Leek and the Tittesworth Reservoir. You will see The Roaches as you drive across the Leek moors from Alstonefield. Rudyard Lake has a pretty 5 mile circular walk and an activity centre with a café and boating, sailing & fishing.
