The Upper House

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.
