Peakstones Inn
An Alton village inn built for family evenings
About this hotel
Peakstones Inn sits in Alton village, just 4.4 kilometres from Alton Towers, offering family rooms with private bathrooms, carpeted floors, garden views, a TV, electric kettle and free toiletries in every room. The on-site restaurant serves British cuisine, and the bar and garden give adults somewhere to relax once the children are settled, while a dedicated games room and karaoke add genuine evening entertainment rarely found at a village inn this size. Private check-in and check-out and daily housekeeping keep the practical side of the stay simple, and free WiFi covers the public areas throughout. Free on-site parking and a picnic area round out a stay built for a family wanting evening activities without leaving the property. The lounge offers a quieter alternative to the games room for parents wanting a calmer end to the evening.

Our take
Peakstones Inn suits families wanting genuine on-site entertainment for the evenings, particularly the games room and karaoke, alongside a short drive to Alton Towers itself. It is a strong pick for a family that wants the day at the waterpark followed by something fun back at the hotel rather than a quiet countryside evening. Families wanting a quiet countryside evening rather than on-site entertainment might prefer one of the more rural inns further from Alton village.
- ✓Book the games room or karaoke evening ahead if visiting during a busy period, since village inns of this size can fill quickly.
- ✓Use the picnic area for a relaxed lunch on a rest day rather than driving to find somewhere to eat.
- ✓Confirm daily housekeeping timing if you want your room refreshed before an evening out at the games room.

Why guests love itFamilies staying at Peakstones Inn often highlight the games room and karaoke as genuine evening entertainment, a rarer find at a village inn this close to Alton Towers. The short 4.4-kilometre distance to the park makes the morning drive almost an afterthought compared with some of the countryside options further out. Daily housekeeping and private check-in are mentioned as small but appreciated conveniences on a trip already full of logistics.
