Welcome to the Peak Weavers Rooms & Restaurant Website.

Built in 1828 for a local mill owner the Guest House stands in its own grounds close to Leek  town centre. It was sold by the Wardle family in the 1860’s and became the convent to the Catholic Church. For nearly 120 years it remained so until in 1978 it was converted to a Guest House and restaurant.

The Peak Weavers Rooms & Restaurant takes its name from its close proximity to the Peak District and from the industry that shaped the town of Leek. Fine examples of weaver’s cottages can be seen on King Street, their third storey catching optimum hours of daylight to enable Leek’s women of yesteryear to work their looms from dawn to dusk.

In 1999 husband and wife team, Nick and Emma Bettany, took over the Guest House and restaurant and set about restoring the period property to its former glory. An ongoing policy of refurbishment has resulted in the bed and breakfast accommodation being graded at 4 Diamonds by the English Tourism Council.

The 40 cover restaurant, under Emma’s guidance, is a previous “Taste of Staffordshire” award winner and has subsequently been awarded an AA Rosette. In September of 2005 the Peak Weavers was judged runner up in Staffordshire Small Restaurant of the Year by a panel of RAC  food inspectors. Also in 2005 the Guest House attained membership of the Peak District Cuisine initiative in recognition of its support for local producers, the first, and currently only restaurant in the Leek area to do so.
Breakfast is served in the restaurant and also makes good use of local produce.

For the business traveller wireless internet access is available throughout the Guest House and is included in the bed and breakfast tariff.
The Guest House and accommodation is completely smoke free.
