Outdoors & Peak District

With famous locations like Dovedale Stepping Stones, The Roaches, Bakewell etc within a short drive, you may be enticed to leave the local area to engage in your preferred outdoor activity. However, you do not need to travel that far to experience the glorious scenery of the Staffordshire Moorlands right on our doorstep. A public footpath runs through Lower Micklin which will take you onto the Staffordshire Way and the Churnet Valley Trail for walking, cycling, rock climbing, horse riding … or just to visit the serene Ramblers Retreat tea rooms in Dimmingsdale for tea and cake.

Meet the animals

Alpacas, hens, guinea pigs…

Lower Micklin is set in the glorious Staffordshire countryside where you are surrounded by wildlife and domesticated animals. Meet Mortimer, Feast and Eton;  our very friendly and inquisitive alpacas who will keep a watchful eye on you at all times. Oscar, the dog, is always ready to play fetch and will keep children entertained for hours chasing balls. The guinea pigs provide more relaxing entertainment while the hens roam freely and even produce the occasional egg.

In the sky you may see a variety of birds including red kites and owls along with hot air balloons and paragliders over the Weaver HIlls. 

Our Location

Centrally located with 10 acres of free to roam private farmland in beautiful rolling Staffordshire countryside. Just a 20 minute leisurely stroll to pretty villages and local pubs.
