What a wonderful place to stay! To be honest, the description doesn't capture how nice this place is. We were primarily here for a concert at the local castle, but had a great time exploring the local region as well. If we come back next year we'll definitely be booking again.

The cottage was clean and the hosts left cereal, fruit, crackers, milk, butter, tea, coffee, sugar and other items like condiments. The kitchen had all you need for a weeks stay.The outside seating area was lovely including the garden. The hosts are extremely friendly people and their recommendations and ideas for days out were invaluable and made our stay easier. It is pet friendly and had use of the paddock when horses in other field. You are spilt for choice for pubs/eating places and are all excellent. There is plenty to do in and around the area. Some with spectacular views. We also found the locals in pubs were very friendly and gave us ideas for days out. In a nut shell we loved the little cottage and area. We will return we are sure.

Beautiful little retreat. A paddock for the dog to play in on the doorstep.Very cosy with the log burner. Very attentive hosts, leaving many little touches for us to enhance our stay.

Super place to stay

We used the cottage as a base to stay for visits over the border to Wales and on to Chester on our last day. It was so cosy and comfortable to return to, very private and peaceful. Great selection of pubs nearby too with excellent food. Would highly recommend

The perfect rural retreat.

The cottage is very comfortable with views over a paddock. The location suited us as it was in a small, quiet village with walks from the door but also easy travelling distance to larger places like Chester. The hosts are very welcoming with helpful recommendations.
