Fantastic stay at Russia Hall between 10-12th August. We stayed for my friends hen do, and had a lovely couple of days here. House was fantastic, gardens were amazing and the covered outdoor area was brilliant, although we were lucky with the weather and managed to sit out on the outdoor table in the sunshine on the second night.
We went segwaying which was a lot
Of fun if your looking for an activity to do whilst in Cheshire - it’s only 25 mins away!
The only slight criticism I would have to make is that we didn’t realise until we arrived that the owners were staying in a tent in the field behind the house as they are having a log cabin built. We also came back on the Tuesday afternoon to find the kitchen tidied and hoovered. Whilst this is very kind and helpful, we weren’t told prior that we were having someone to come in and clean when we were out, and some of the girls had left their handbags etc lying around. We were also told to make sure noise was turned off outside at 11pm. We are a sensible bunch of ladies and from about 10pm were clock watching to ensure we didn’t lose track of time to make sure we followed the rules. We received a text from the owner at 10.15 asking us to go in at 11, then 10.56pm hit and the owner came round with a torch telling us to go inside. Whilst I’m sure she was just being helpful, this again made us feel like we were being ‘watched’. Maybe it’s because we were a hen party, I don’t know, but we didn’t do anything wrong to warrant being monitored.
Apart from those minor issues we had a fantastic couple of days away and Russia Hall is a gorgeous property for a large group!
Thanks
