Leek is a market town in the Staffordshire countryside nestled in the foothills of the stunning Peak District national park. The historic town centre is home to many listed buildings and Victorian era architecture. In fact, the high street was recently voted one of the best in Britain. It has a fantastic selection of places to shop, eat and drink, including one of the local’s favourite pubs, the Blue Mugge. Leek also has a vibrant arts scene with a full calendar of events and a local theatre.
Leek sits next to the hills and peaks at the south-west of the Pennines that are known locally as the Staffordshire Alps because of their breath-taking views and numerous trails.
