The historical market town of Leek is located in North Staffordshire on the edge of the Staffordshire Moorlands. It borders the counties of Derbyshire and Cheshire. The Green Man Guesthouse is located in an area of high footfall on the edge of Leek town centre, home to an array of independent and larger retail businesses. Notable attractions in the area include Rudyard Lake Steam Railway and Alton Towers, whilst the Peak District National Park and the Staffordshire Moorlands offer stunning scenery, walking and cycling routes.
Leek has good motoring links, being situated at the junction of the A53 and the A523 which provide easy access to the nearby towns of Stoke-on-Trent (and the M6) (12 miles), Macclesfield (13 miles) and Buxton (12.5 miles).
The Green Man Guesthouse, formerly a public house dating back to the 19th century, is set over two storeys of brick construction under a pitch slate roof and has two purpose-built letting accommodation buildings to the rear and side of the main house. The property’s site is 9,580 square feet and it briefly comprises:
Trade areas
Entrance to the rear of the building with laundry room offset, leading to a well-equipped trade kitchen with vinyl floors, stainless steel preparation areas, a kitchen island and base units. The kitchen has numerous catering appliances and effects.

Breakfast room arranged for 20 covers with carpeted floors, brick fireplace and inset gas fire, sash windows and a wooden servery with back bar used as preparation area. WC offset and additional storeroom.
