It is very warm quiet & comfortable in it's own picturesque plot of land. It has a small shop and great pub just around the corner. Will be booking again for next January. Being ultra picky the only way it could be improved would be to get a dishwasher.

Nice walks from the property and close to Delemere Forest, as well as being close to Chester for the shopping and historic sites.

The surroundings are nice with a lot of this to do and towns to visit. We weren't a big fan of the double bed but this is personal. We would have prevered to have the curtains within the bedrooms to block more light as now you do wake up very early everday even when you do not have any early plans
