Supporting Local, Shopping Local
At Denstone Hall, supporting local makers, growers and small businesses is something we take genuine pride in. From the food and drink on our Farm Shop shelves to the handcrafted gifts and homewares in our Gift Shop, around 60% of what we stock comes from within 30 miles of our doors.
Every locally made product on our shelves represents a person, a passion and a story. When you shop with us, you're not just taking something beautiful home, you're supporting the independent makers and growers who make this part of Staffordshire and Derbyshire such a special place to be.
BEERS & CRAFT ALES
We've always believed the best things come from close to home and our beer selection is no exception.

You'll find brilliant bottles and cans from Lymestone Brewery in Stone, Peak Ales in Bakewell, Buxton Brewery, Rural Brewing Co, Titanic Brewery in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire Brewery in Leek and Peakstones Rock in Alton.
CHARTLEY COFFEE
STAFFORD
Good coffee always tastes better when you know where it comes from.
