The Upper House
The Green, Stoke on Trent, ST12 9AE, United Kingdom – Excellent location - show map
In a peaceful, rural location, this country house was originally built in 1845. Today, the house has been converted into a luxurious privately owned hotel with many beautiful original features. The Upper House is a former Wedgwood residence, built for Josiah Wedgwood's grandson, Francis Wedgwood. The house still retains its original charm, with extensive period decoration and traditional character. It is also a highly demanded wedding venue. There are 24 en suite rooms, all with TVs, telephones, tea/coffee making facilities and hairdryers. Some of the rooms have balconies and although there is no smoking in the house, smoking is permitted on the balconies. Free Wi-Fi wireless internet access is available throughout the hotel. A full English breakfast is included in the price. There are 2 comfortable lounges and in the chillier winter months, guests can relax by the real log fire. There is also a patio area and a conservatory at the rear of the hotel, both overlooking the beautiful gardens. A lift serves all floors. The Upper House has a quiet, restful location, but is just a few miles south of Stoke-on-Trent, within easy reach of the A50, the M6 motorway and the region’s major road network. Free on-site parking is available for guests.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.
