Local Accommodation

Alton Towers work with local Lettings Agency Castle Estates who will help you with your accommodation.  The accommodation we can provide is in the local market town of Leek, Staffordshire, 30-45 minutes away by bus (depending on what time you catch the bus), or in other surrounding villages. Leek has numerous shops, pubs, a leisure centre and various other amenities to make you comfortable whilst you're with us.

Well Street Mill and Alexandra Mill, Leek, Staffordshire: These former textile mills have been completely renovated to offer 65 ensuite bedrooms with shared kitchen and social facillities.  Each room has its own TV point and electric shower. We are planning wireless internet access if you have your own laptop. The accommodation is charged at £60 per week with a small charge for electricity.  

Additional charges will be made for:
Internet usage: (cost to be confirmed)
Washing machines: £2 per wash
Electricity: approx £7 per week

If you would like a larger room with a double bed and better views, the rent is £85 per week. Please note the rooms are all single occupancy only.

“Host families”:  In the instances when the Mills above are full, we have arrangements with local homeowners who rent out their spare bedrooms to overseas students.  The accommodation varies but includes use of bathroom facilities, washing machine and kitchen equipment.  This accommodation is also charged at £65 inclusive of bills.

Accommodation can be in any of the surrounding villages but all are within (approx) 10 minutes walk of our bus routes.
