About this property
Chapel House is a delightful cottage resting in Dunham on the Hill, Cheshire, featuring a woodburning stove, off-road parking for four cars and a garden with lawn and patio. Welcoming families, friends and one well-behaved pet, this appealing base brings everyone together for a break spent discovering Cheshire. Step inside and follow the aroma of dinner into the open-plan living space, where the kitchen makes preparing family favourites part of the occasion. Set the dining table ready for everyone to gather, then let the evening move naturally towards the sitting area. Light the woodburning stove as dusk settles and choose a film on the TV, or simply linger together planning the following day's adventures.
On brighter afternoons, carry drinks through to the garden and settle around the furniture on the patio while younger guests enjoy the lawn. Three bedrooms await when the day winds down, with two doubles and a twin offering flexible arrangements for families and friends, complemented by a bathroom where a bath and shower over provide a choice when freshening up. A pub lies within walking distance, while a shop is a short journey away for provisions.
