Absolutely fabulous. Would highly recommend. The owner was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. So much so that we will be returning to explore the area further. Great location for Alton Towers with wonderful pubs close by too. We had an issue with our taxi not arriving in the morning and had a panic to get to the station on time. The owner emailed me to check we had got our train on time. Very thoughtful and we will be back to stay again soon. Thank you.

We recently stayed at the Bee hive on a trip to Alton Towers. Had a wonderful stay, Jo was so friendly, welcoming & very knowledgeable about Alton towers & the surrounding area. The Bee Hive is situated in a peaceful lovely little village only minutes from Alton Towers and close to local amenities & restaurants. The Bee Hive was immaculate, warm & homely, we had a lovely breakfast from Jo both mornings. Will definitely stay again the next time we’re in the area.

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.

We found a little gem!!! Spotlessly clean, modern and spacious rooms with period features, which have been extremely well thought out by Jo and Steve during their renovations at this lovely old property. The beds were very comfortable, with brilliant white bedding, the towels were also brilliant white and very fluffy and the shower was great after a long, hot day at Alton Towers (and a few drinks at the local pub, which is a very short walk away!) The breakfast, cooked by Steve, was excellent. My husband enjoyed the full english and my daughter and I loved our first Staffordshire Oat Cakes, with cheese and bacon - gorgeous! Jo was lovely and welcoming and has lots of knowledge about the area to share -and her homemade jam with our breakfast was fab. We were there for our daughters birthday and Jo also left a card in our room from her and Steve, which was such a lovely gesture and very much appreciated.
We cannot recommend The Beehive enough and we will definitely return - thank you so much for such a fabulous stay!

Perfect stay!

Jo was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond every step of the way. Before arrival over the phone, she offered a later check in than normal due to my long travel time (approx 4.5hrs) and gave me great information about Alton Towers before arrival. On arrival we were greeted with a birthday card for my daughter who was turning 10 during our stay, which was only mentioned breifly during a phone call before travelling there. Jo also helped me sneak around with my daughter's presents and kindly put them on display in the dining room ready for my daughter to walk in to in the morning. The room was impeccably clean, warm and cosy. The shower was great. Towels were soft. Breakfast was absolutely amazing with the most perfect poached eggs I've ever eaten! (Thank you Steve!) And Jo's homemade jams were fantastic! She even gave us some homegrown apples to take home with us.
The area itself was stunning too. Plus lots of places to eat and drink near by.

Room was nice, clean and a lovely touch providing tea, coffee, water and a few biscuits.

Amazing owners/Beautiful Place/Delicious Breakfast

We stayed here for 3 nights while visiting Alton towers. It is a fantastic place, couldn’t have asked for more. The owners Jo and Steve were absolutely wonderful, nothing was to much for them. It was my sons 11th birthday while we were there, and when we came in for breakfast that morning they had put a birthday card on the table for him, which was just so unexpected, absolutely amazing and thoughtful, then after we’d eaten the most delicious breakfast cooked by Steve (Which we have been craving more of ever since) both Jo and Steve came in with my sons cake to sing happy birthday to him. They really go above and beyond for they’re guests, Jo give us lots of tips to help while at Alton towers as it was our first time and they came in really handy and were much appreciated. She also recommended some restaurants in the area which was great as we had a gorgeous meal out. I honestly can’t rave about this place enough, it’s spotlessly clean, in a lovely area, the Wi-Fi was great, and literally 5 minutes away from Alton towers. The only slight issue we had in the room was that the tv is placed in an alcove and from where the single bed my son was sleeping in is placed you can’t see the tv at all, but that’s a small minor thing and absolutely wouldn’t prevent us from returning And we definitely will be in the future. Thank you so much Jo/Steve for a wonderful stay at your beautiful home. (Make sure to try some of Jo’s homemade jams, made from fruit she grows herself, best jams Eva)

Little touches like free water bottles made all the difference. They have a fantastic knkwlege of the peak district, so if you're not just their for Alton Towers and fancy exploring the beautiful area, I'd recommend talking to them first. Oh, and finally, definitely try the oatcakes for breakfast. So good...

Perfect place.

Such a lovely, lovely place. Everything in the room to the highest spec, and absolutely spotless. Very comfy bed and pillows. Great breakfast and perfect location for Alton Towers. The owners clearly take great pride in what they do.

Will certainly stay again

Can highly recommend

I stayed at the beehive with my daughter for 2 nights for a visit to Alton Towers . Excellent location - about 5-10 minutes drive. Very pretty setting. Spotlessly clean. Delicious breakfast. Nothing is too much trot. Will definitely return. Can highly recommend

would stay again,

bit of a long check in, maybe good to email guests to register personal details before arriving, after a long day just wanted to get settled in the room, we were downstairs first room as you go in, so very handy, nice location, and peaceful accommodation.
i would recommend a tv in the breakfast room, as was exceptionally quiet, so a bit of back ground noise would of been nice, or radio.
very clean and lovely owners and well thought out and nice touches

Our stay here was great after a long day at Alton towers in the rain. The owner was friendly. A lot of rules although this seems to be from previous travellers not being very respectful to property etc. The breakfast was lovely. Would definitely recommend staying here

Clean, friendly and well located for Alton Towers

Great location for Alton Towers (2 miles) and a spotlessly clean bed and breakfast. The hosts are very helpful and friendly with excellent service and a great breakfast. I can thoroughly recommend the Staffordshire Oat Cakes with cheese and bacon for breakfast, they were amazing!
Located in a small village with a pub 30 metres from the B&B, which although charming does not do food, but eatings cheating right?!? Perfect for families or singles wanting to do the theme park or explore the staffs/Derbyshire countryside.
Definitely stay here if coming back to Alton Towers
