  Beautiful cottage.

  Lovely and clean. Bathroom with walk in shower also very clean. Comfy beds and pretty lounge area, kitchen a dream to be in. Really peaceful place to stay. Only drawback is the garden area. The private area outside the side door was very unkempt. Its only a small area but it's a perfect sun trap to be able to enjoy outdoor eating, lounging and sunbathing but unfortunately the grass and borders are too overgrown and really need to be much better maintained. There was dog mess around the borders..not nice to be sitting near to. There were no chairs or even a small table to put a drink on although 3 small garden chairs we provided when we asked the owner as we got fed up hauling kitchen chairs outside in order to be able to sit down with a drink and sunbathe, not very comfortable sitting on a straight back dining chair. Really nice pond containing pond flowers but water so dirty and full of grass cuttings we couldn't see any fish although we knew they were in there somewhere! Perhaps a small team of gardeners could be brought in to maintain that rear garden on a weekly basis during summer so that it can be maintained to that beautiful little area that it should be.

  Our original cottage was cancelled so we were grateful to be able to book this house over half term.

  The owner was welcoming on arrival, and let us know about some local amenities for our small children. The bungalow is on farm on a country road and was peaceful. It is not far from main roads. The house was clean. I hope to be constructive in mentioning that I have stayed in a number of Sykes cottages and I felt that this house, in this price bracket, would benefit from: a king/super king instead of a double in the largest bedroom. The mattress felt raised in the middle so that you were rolling off. The bed was also squeaky. A larger fridge. The under counter fridge is rather small if you planned to cook your own meals. An indoor clothes airer. There is a rotary in the garden which needs more pegs. I also felt that outside furniture and a BBQ, in a screened off area of the garden would greatly add to the amenity. The garden is open to the shared drive. Overall I would recommend this location.

  91 Main Street was in a great location for visiting our family.

  We visited from Australia and stayed for two weeks and enjoyed our time there. The train station is a good 5 minute walk away and you can head out for a day to Wales, Liverpool, Manchester or Chester. There are some lovey pubs in Frodsham, the Bears Paw is a few doors away, and the Ring O Bells is good walk up the hill. There are restaurants too. Supermarkets (Morrisons and Sainsbury's) are nearby for any groceries/drinks you may require. Our bed was comfortable, having two bathrooms with plenty of hot water and two TVs was also nice to have on a cold winter's eve. The house was heated throughout, and it was always lovely to walk into after a day out in the cold. My parents loved visiting us there. We celebrated my Mum's 85th birthday and I was able to cook her a delicious meal as everything we needed was in the well stocked kitchen. We are already hoping to stay again in 2024.

  The property is really nicely presented and seems to have had a recent refresh.

  Rooms are spacious with lots of storage. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need, including dishwasher tablets and washing capsules. We cooked ourselves an entire Sunday roast and had everything we needed. Beds comfy with nice thick duvets. Kids were a bit disappointed by the lack of Netflix etc but learnt to watch 'real' TV :). A lovely location to explore the North Wales beaches, Chester Zoo, and the Wirral. A local shop and two friendly pubs in walking distance (but take a torch). We found some lovely dog walks in local nature reserves and Mandy let us wash down the muddy pooches in the old dairy. We had three adults and two kids so had to negotiate around the one bathroom. One recommendation would be a lock on the bathroom door. Thank you, a lovely holiday xx.

  We had an excellent week at the holiday home.

  The accommodation was well appointed and Mr and Mrs Cannon made us welcome. The bungalow is on a farm in a rural location so a car is essential. However there is a village nearby which has an excellent pub, a village store and a surprisingly upmarket coffee shop! For exploring the area Chester (including the Zoo) is within easy reach with Park & Ride buses (£2 return) from Wrexham Road about 5 miles away. Also Wrexham, Flint and Mold are less than 10 miles so there are other places to explore. Erddig National Tust is well worth a visit and we spent a whole day there. The large Chester Oaks Designer Outlet at Ellesmere Port is also within range. In all a good week exploring a new area from a comfortable base.
