Stylish Romantic Country Escape near Chester

We had a lovely stay at this gorgeous property for a long weekend away with our baby! It’s a great distance to Chester Zoo and Blue Planet Aquarium so great for a family stay, as well as close to the city centre with beautiful restaurants and bars for couples and groups of friends. We had a lovely meal at the Cheshire Cat as per recommended by the lovely host, and enjoyed the bottle of prosecco kindly left in the fridge once the baby was in bed! The space was very clean and tastefully furnished. The secure garden is lovely and the parking was really convenient too. We had the best time and would highly recommend, thank you so much!

Stunning property. Really thoughtfully furnished and equipped. We had everything we needed for a staycation weekend. Lovely location with plenty of amenities in walking distance in Christleton, and nice walks close by. Also, close to Chester to visit for the day. Melanie was very responsive and helpful (not that we needed help during our stay). Super comfy bed.

There’s a very noisy dog next door, but it didn’t impact our stay.

Dark rich decor sets a cosy mood. We had everything we needed for a 4 day stay with shops and eateries just a short drive away. The heating was easy to control and we had comfortable beds. Kitchen facilities are good enough to make a nice meal. Communication throughout was timely and useful.

Slightly close to a road junction so we did hear some traffic in the morning although the double glazing reduces the noise a lot. The pub just around the corner doesn't serve food during the week but other short drive places do

Very cosy in the living room with the open fire. Nicely furnished. Comfortable bed.

The front door was very draughty which made upstairs cold.

Parking. Beautiful designed home so welcoming. Cosy chilled stay.

No lights in back garden

It was very cosy, comfortable and clean

The lock on the front door was stiff

In un luogo veramente meraviglioso, con una vista stupenda della campagna . Si sveglia con la natura davanti alla finestra. E una casa molto molto accogliente con colori rilassanti e quando ci vuole più atmosfera e calore c’è un bel caminetto da accendere. Si sente veramente a casa con tutte le comodità di casa propria. lMelanie è una host molto attenta e gentile e risponde a qualsiasi messaggio in tempi brevissimi e sono stati molto graditi i regali di benvenuto.

Everything! It was absolutely perfect in every way! Brilliantly equipped and appointed. Thank you for a fabulous stay, we will definitely return! Loved the log fire, great hot water for bath & super shower & quality towels. Loved the peace & tranquility-super clean & very cosy & comfortable. Beautiful setting, excellent furnishings & very stylish decor. We particularly loved the five star hotel quality beds & bed linen & the view from the front bedroom across the fields whilst sat in bed was divine!

There was nothing we didn’t like, therefore the following are not criticisms, however, constructive feedback to help the host for future guests & make it 101% perfect. There is a loud floor creak when you sit on the loo which is an easy fix. Quick adjustment to front door to prevent draught. More wood for the fire would be a lovely addition. Blinds on the kitchen & dining room windows and door curtain on back door to make it more cosy in winter. Please note that it was particularly cold when we visited & whilst the central heating system was excellent and very effective it was a nice addition to have the fire. Black pepper mill would have been nice. A whisk to make bearnaise sauce would be lovely. Recycling bin outside the back door would also be a nice touch. More options for coffee machine as flat white pods only were available so we didn’t use it. Podless coffee machine such as a Sage would be preferable & more environmentally friendly.
