Rural and yet very close to the city centre on what I consider to be the best and most accessible side of Chester with easy access to the race course, main car parks, walls and city centre Café bars. Located a short distance from Chester City Centre ( 5 minutes by car ) and on the most accessible and convenient side of Chester with easy access to numerous local attractions Chester Races, UK's best and world renowned Zoo, Cheshire Oaks (UK's biggest outlet village) and Blue Planet Aquarium - in under 15 minutes.

We booked the property at short notice and all communications went smoothly...the owner checked on us after arrival at the property which was beautifully renovated.A gas fireplace added to the cosy feel and like most properties in the UK you get plenty of exercise navigating the upstairs bedrooms.
A beautiful property, A real home from home. Very clean, comfortable and very quiet. Just perfect for our trip to Chester. The host was kind, friendly and very informative. We highly recommend this Cottage.

Many thanks for your kind comments, so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Love to welcome you again
We were two couples and found this cottage to work out terrific for our stay. We have time in Chester, Wrexham and Liverpool which made for easy day trips. The host Gary did an excellent job in meeting us at the place and provided a great overview of how everything worked.
Beautiful cottage located just perfectly close to amenities but out the way of peace and quiet.
Immaculately kept. Host was most helpful
Would stay again anytime.

So pleased you enjoyed your stay , I constantly strive to maintain high standards of cleanliness and your compliments are much appreciated, hope to see you in the future.
Fantastic house to stay in, when visiting Chester and surrounding areas. We were here for a family wedding and Gary (the owner), couldn’t have gone out of his way anymore than he did, in making sure we enjoyed our stay to the max.
A beautifully maintained house and would definitely recommend to anyone and will book there again.

Beautifully designed property, with the latest mod-con appliances and facilities, but with a traditional cottage feel. Less than a 10 min drive to Chester centre. Our host Gary was lovely. Met me on site to go over everything and give us lots restaurant and bar suggestions.
Great stay for the weekend with the family. House was perfect with everything you needed. Gary was great with all information on arrival lovely touch to have it all face to face & his recommendation was great. he recommended a place for food & our meals there for the whole family didn’t disappoint. Great place to stay for Chester zoo with only a 15 minute drive which was great after a full day spent there. Xx
Fabulous property in a great location. There’s everything you need and more in the kitchen. Gary was a perfect host. Very attentive and easy communication. Thank you. We’ll definitely return when we next need a property in the area.

So Pleased you enjoyed the cottage and your stay, love to see you again in the future. Many thanks
We had a wonderful stay in this delightful cottage. It has been beautifully decorated and furnished so that it feels warm and cosy - like a real home rather than rental accommodation. The only downside is the lane leading to the property which is badly potholed but I believe there are plans to fix this in the near future. When you get here it is totally worth it!

Many thanks for your comments, so pleased you enjoyed your stay.
This was a last minute booking due to being let down and we couldn't have been happier. The property was perfect in every way and close to all attractions.There is everything that anyone would need and the attention to detail was amazing. Gary was great with welcoming us to the property and showing us how everything worked and nothing was too much trouble. Overall this was a great find and will 100% be returning when back in the Chester area.

I like to make the effort to meet guests and ensure they have a perfect stay. Many thanks for your comments and so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Look forward to welcoming you in the future.
This was a really lovely place to stay. The website photos did not really do justice to the cottage. It was very comfortable, relaxing and spacious with a very pretty garden (and BBQ). The property is in the countryside, close to the River Dee, but only a short drive to Chester (with local supermarkets a couple of minutes away). The host was friendly, generous and helpful. I would recommend this place and happily stay there again.

Many thanks for your gracious comments , but most of all I'm so happy you enjoyed your stay, hope to see you again when next in Chester.
Great and quiet location to visit Chester, Chester Zoo and Liverpool (we drove to Hooton and got the direct train for Liverpool, very easy).
Beds were ready comfy and great kitchen. Was lovely to come back to the house after a day out and sit in the sunny garden too. Great communication by Gary who was very helpful. Thank you Gary!

So pleased you enjoyed your stay, would love to welcome you again, next time you could try the Trafford Centre or Knowsley Safari Park both are within an hours drive. Many thanks for your comments . Best regards Gary
Although the property is rural its a perfect base to get to lots of places. If you drive then everything you need is virtually on the doorstep! The property is very close to grocery and retail shops with Chester and Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet a short drive away. Gary is the perfect host and we loved the personal "meet & greet". The house is very well equipped with everything you need for a break away from it all. It has a private garden and a parking space directly outside the property. Gary was also helpful with local knowledge about places to visit. Will definitely book again when visiting this area. Thank you for a stress free break Gary.
