Beautiful cottage, really nice location, everything you could hope for, especially the bed it was really comfortable, topped off with beautiful linen. Judy and John were excellent hosts, they took very good care of all our needs. They made our Labradoodle Arthur very welcome and he loved having his own paddock to run around in!!A great place to relax and enjoy the rural countryside.

This was my second stay at this VRBO - obviously I liked it because I chose to return. The cottage is well appointed. It truly is in a beautiful, quiet, pastoral location, convenient for a variety of day trips, local walks, and excellent pubs. John and Judy are gracious and helpful hosts.

Fantastic, peaceful, very restful

This is a lovely cottage a long way from the sound of traffic. The cottage has everything you could possibly need and our hosts made sure we were well topped up with logs for the stove. There is a large fenced field for dogs, our two loved it. Overall highly recommended, idyllic comes to mind.

A relaxing country break

We had a lovely couple of days in the cottage over New Year – the area's very pretty, local pubs are great and the cottage is warm, comfy and cosy. The enclosed paddock is great if you're visiting with a dog – our pup loved racing around and exploring off the lead. Recommended!

Very Welcoming

Brilliant from start to finish, very responsive from booking, though to the standard of the accomodation. The field for the dogs to exercise in, was the icing on the cake. Unexpected provisions (bread, eggs, milk etc were a lovely touch). Would definitely stay again (if they'd have us back!).

Great little cottage

We really enjoyed our stay. Judy made us feel very welcome on arrival. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The welcome package was a lovely touch as it meant we had breakfast sorted for the weekend. The enclosed paddock to let our dog in was great and he enjoyed running through the grass! The tennis was an added bonus and the court was well maintained. We would love to return again.

Off the beaten track but lovely place

Great little farm cottage, very clean & well decorated. Lovely touch by Judy & John leaving us fresh eggs bacon bread tomatoes tea coffee & a bottle of champagne. We didn't spend that much time in the cottage as we were visiting family over Xmas but was a lovely place. Would be even better in summer I would imagine. Only down side was could find a frying pan or grill handle, but overall excellent stay.

Perfect Getaway

It is a very comfortable cottage in a lovely rural area with good access to roads and dog walks. The dogs had a big field to run in right next to the cottage, which was a huge bonus. Great pubs and nearby attractions for everyone. Perfect location if you want somewhere quiet and peaceful but near to a lot of things. Judy held an art exhibition while we were staying, showcasing local artists work which was fascinating and well worth a visit. We could not have asked for a more welcoming and gracious host. Thank you for a wonderful stay - we will be coming back.

Rural retreat

Beautiful countryside location. Stunning grounds where you could sit and relax after a day out. Very quiet but also very close to a number of places to eat that were all within 5 - 10 minute drive. Lovely stone cottage that was lovely and cool in the hot weather. Lovely hosts who were happy to pass on local knowledge and very keen for feedback on anything that could be improved. Relaxing and restorative week. No traffic noise, dark skies and the company of sheep and moor hens on the farm. The hosts had also left some tea/coffee and breakfast items which was a lovely surprise. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

A great find!

The cottage was exactly as described and very well-equipped. It’s in a very quiet location out in the country, but only 5 minutes from an excellent pub. The local cell phone tower did go down for the last few days of my visit, but that was not my hosts’ fault, and I did have Wi-Fi in the cottage. Judy & John were gracious and helpful hosts, checking in to make sure I had everything I needed, as well as providing some milk, eggs, bread, and butter when I arrived. The location worked perfectly for me - very convenient for day trips in Cheshire & Shropshire. I’m hoping to be able to go back but next time with my husband and not on my own!

A beautiful place to stay

We stayed for the weekend and it was fantastic. A very nice personal touch of milk, bread, croissants, butter, home made jam. Fresh eggs and tea/coffee etc. The gardens are beautiful and the dog was able to wander round without worry of him going on a road if he followed his nose for a bird. Other than breakfast we didn't cook and we every local pub we went to the food and drink was fantastic. My son was distraught there was no internet but I think that was great as he had to do something that wasn't on his phone, every parents dream ;) Great place, would recommend you try it

About the host

Hosted by Judy Bromley-Davenport

Host profile image
I live in Cheshire with my husband and we have 3 children and 2 dogs a pug and a labrador. My husband works at home and in Manchester on legal cases and I work from home on various projects and do alot of charity work.




Why they chose this property

We used to live in North-East Cheshire, but have always wanted to live in South Cheshire as it is nearer to Wales and we like being near to the Sandstone Trail for walking, also good golf courses like Portal and Delamere are nearby.
Our house is on the Cholmondeley Castle Estate which we love and we often go into Cholmondeley Park to walk in the beautiful gardens and see the rare breeds of animals.

We are also very keen racegoers and frequently go the Chester racecourse.

There are a number of very good pubs nearby.

We are only 25 minutes from Crewe station and yet in the most beautiful quiet spot.



What makes this property unique

A lovely location. Very quiet and well away from the roads and traffic.

Use of a astro turf tennis court.

Access to many sporting activities: Riding, Golf, tennis, polo, racing at Chester and Bangor throughout the year, motor-racing (Oulton Park) Delamere Forest for cycling and Go-Ape.

The picturesque small towns of Tarporley and Malpas are nearby and are well worth a visit.

Manchester and Airport 50 minutes
Liverpool Airport 40 minutes
