Hotel Description
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 rooms with attached bathroom 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 elevator 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.

Very enjoyable apart from my...

Liked: I really enjoy staying at this hotel and I think that I have booked it about 5 or 6 times over the last 5 years.It’s a convenient stopover for me on my way to visit family further north along the M6.Lots of activities and things to visit locally.The staff are very friendly and helpful.
Disliked: I was very disappointed with my breakfast choice this time.I decided upon the avocado muffin.Firstly the muffin was barely toasted and there was no butter on it!The avocado was quite hard and seemed to have been just plonked upon the very dry soft muffin.I would have hoped it might have been mashed with seasoning(?)A contrast such as toasted buttered sourdough would have worked better I suggest.There was a glaze which tasted like brown sauce was drizzled across the top.Very sweet and not that pleasant to taste. A sriracha style topping might work better(?)I guess the dish appears on the menu as a necessary vegan alternative?However compared to the full English,Eggs Royale etc options I feel the Avocado Muffin was sadly below par!I spoke to the receptionist about my dissatisfaction but no compensation was offered.She did emphasise though.Therefore I am sorry to say that I judged my stay was not good value for money this time…
