About this property

Cottage, Hightown Village, Liverpool / Southport

Instow Cottage is a small house in the centre of Hightown, a quiet coastal village north of Liverpool . It is a stone's throw away from a Merseyrail station, with trains running every 15 minutes to Liverpool city centre (25-minute journey) and Southport. The house is opposite the Hightown Hotel pub/restaurant, it faces a little village green, a pharmacy, hairdressers salon and village shop/off-licence (open until 9pm, seven days). A beach and coastal path are just a few minutes walk away.
The space
The cottage is newly-refurbished throughout, has two living rooms downstairs, a fully-fitted kitchen, including dishwasher and washing machine, and a furnished conservatory, leading to an enclosed rear garden. The main sitting area has television with several, free streaming channels and unlimited-use wifi. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a small study room and a newly-fitted bathroom, with walk-in shower (the cottage also has the benefit of a second, downstairs toilet).
Guest access
All areas inside and out are available for guest use.
Other things to note
This is the ideal spot to stay for those who want close proximity to all that award-winning Liverpool City has to offer, or to view the 'Iron Men in the Sea' at Crosby, or the Red Squirrel Nature Reserve and sand dunes vista at Formby. There are glorious walks along Merseyside and Sefton's unique coastline, with some of the best Links golf courses in Britain, and the vast flat sands from Ainsdale to Southport that were the training ground of the world famous racehorse Red Rum.

Wonderful cottage close to Liverpool
One of the best properties we have stayed at on our 4 week holiday in the UK. The cottage was spotless, beautifully and thoughtfully presented in every aspect. The kitchen was very well equipped, the bedrooms and lounge were very comfortable and the bathroom well appointed. Barbara and Derek had thought of every detail to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The extras such as biscuits, wine, eggs, milk, bread etc were very much appreciated. Communication was very good and the cottage was even better than the pictures indicated. The only problem with our stay was that it wasn’t long enough!

Beautiful and well equiped cottage
We had a fantastic week here, which passed too quickly. Instow Cottage is a beautifully-decorated house in Hightown, convenient for Formby, Southport and Liverpool. The cottage occupies a central position within the village, handy for the train station and the village shop. The cottage consists of two bedrooms plus a cosy study upstairs, with a living room, dining room, kitchen and conservatory downstairs. There is a small garden which our grandchildren enjoyed running around! The cottage was thoughtfully equipped with many added extras, including boxes of tissues, a bottle of wine in the fridge, and homemade lemon cake on arrival. The cottage had been recently refurbished and was clean and impeccably decorated throughout. The landlady, Barbara, was a pleasure to deal with and was very helpful. We will be returning!
