Step into a stunning living and dining area where soaring ceilings and original stained-glass windows bathe a sumptuous couch and elegant dining table in natural light—perfect for cosy evenings in and home-cooked dinners alike.

Excellent Apartment in an excellent area.

Really great accommodation at a reasonable price. Apartment was decorated and equipped to a high standard. Dedicated parking space. Area fantastic, close to a big park and local amenities and about a 15 to 20 minutes walk from the beach. Very easy access by train and road to Liverpool and Southport. So much to do and see in this area and in Liverpool itself and near to Wales, the Pennines and the Lakes.
