•Beautifully appointed and fully operational Guest House & Restaurant with
established reputation and bookings into 2023
Peak Weavers is a beautifully appointed Guest House with an established
reputation for providing high quality overnight accommodation and restaurant
services, both of which operate independently of one another. The property was
originally constructed as a private dwelling house in 1828 since which time it
has been extended and from 1979 has been operating as a guest house. The
current husband and wife team, who took over the running of the business in
1999, have lovingly refurbished the building and are now looking to start a
new chapter in their lives, which creates the opportunity for a new proprietor
to acquire the premises and take over the business.
The property is arranged over three floors and is approached via an entrance
leading to the car park, adjacent to which are lawned gardens with a path
leading to the front entrance door. Upon entering the building one is
confronted with an imposing reception hall retaining many of its original
Georgian features with an ornate staircase leading to the first floor.
From the entrance hall is a bar area followed by a dining room capable of
comfortably seating 40 covers. To the rear of the restaurant is a very well
appointed and fully fitted commercial kitchen together with a number of
storage rooms.
The guest accommodation is arranged over ground, first and second floor with
all of the rooms having ensuite facilities. There is also private living
accommodation for the owners extending to three bedrooms with a large
living/dining room.
Externally there is a private carpark that will accommodate approx. 16 cars
together with lawned gardens to the front and a private courtyard to the rear
within which is a brick - built workshop.
**Location**
The property commands an elevated position, set back from the road in a leafy
and mainly residential side street within a minutes' walk of the town centre.
Leek is an affluent market town steeped in history and within close proximity
to a number of renowned tourist attractions making it a popular destination.
The town is very accessible and is principally served by the A53 and A523 and
is approx. 11 miles to the north - east of Stoke on Trent. Junction 15 of the M6
motorway is approx. 15 miles.

**Existing Business**
Peak Weavers continues to trade as normal despite being offered to the market
for sale. It is hoped that whoever acquires the property will want to continue
to run the business and will be able to build upon the existing goodwill and
trading reputation that the current owners have achieved, although this is not
essential if someone wishes to use the premises for alternative uses.
**B &B**
Bookings continue to be taken and there are already several bookings for 2023.
There are many trading opportunities that the premises offers and in addition
to the B&B and restaurant business the premises is often used as a wedding
venue and also hosts many other business and special occasion events.
Further details relating to the business can be made available to interested
parties who conduct an internal inspection and will be afforded an opportunity
to meet the current owners. For more information relating to the business
