Great value for money

Chose to stay here for 2 nights while visiting friends. Fantastic property lots of free parking available and within walking distance of amenities. Bus stops right outside on the main road. I had little interaction with the hosts but that’s because I didn’t need anything. When I did need to contact them the phone numbers were on a card in the room and Kevan responded and was polite. I’m considering a return visit in the future.

Great base for Oulton Park

This was the perfect base for us to attend the Oulton Park race circuit from. Nice comfortable studio at the back of the main house with all you need when you're self catering. We were met by the family's youngest son, Ewan, and his friend on arrival. We couldn't have been welcomed better. Thank you again. We spent time every morning chatting with the chickens, they were so friendly. That's a first for us haha! We noticed a few places nearby for eating out and can recommend the Rising Sun in Tarporley (near the racecourse). Just be warned that it's easy to miss, even when you're following the directions...
Glorious grounds

Exactly what I needed. Thank you

This property was perfect for my needs. It is located not too far from the centre of Chester in a quiet suburb. Saying that, you would have to either drive there or catch the bus. The property is a located at the rear of a large family home. The room has a large double bed, a sofa, a table and chairs. Off the main room is a kitchen and a bathroom. There was plenty of space to park my large van when staying here. The owners said I was free to use the gardens too, which was really nice. However, I was here during some stormy weather so did not venture into the garden. I have stayed here a couple of times now and found the owners to be incredibly welcoming. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Thank you

Perfekter Aufenthalt in einem Studio Apartment

Entgegen der Beschreibung handelt es sich hier um ein Studio Apartment. Komplet mit sehr geräumigem Schlafzimmer, Küche und Badezimmer. Das Apartment hat einen eigenen Eingang am Haus und sehr gute Parkmöglichkeiten. Die Straße ist zwar stark befahren aber im Apartment hört man davon nichts. Wer in der Gegend von Chester eine Übernachtungsmöglichkeit sucht ist hier perfekt aufgehoben. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Vermieter. Wir werden uns diese Adresse für weitere Urlaube auf jeden Fall merken.

This is not a hotel! It is an apartment at the back of the owners home. That being said it was very nice. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment. Owner was very helpful getting us oriented to the area.

Approx 3 miles from Chester

The flat was basic, had issue when checking in, left waiting around 40 minutes due to a mix up in communication. But this was sorted when the owner returned.The room was damp so had to put heating on, the only window accessible was a small one in the kitchen so we where very warm. The main road was very busy but we didn't hear any noise. use of a vehicle is advised due to location. Bus stop outside but only every half hour in day time. Probably wouldn't stay here again but may suit some people.

Good Value for Money

The room was a lovely big size with a double and a single bed and for those that need it a huge television. The kitchen was fully equipped and there was tea coffee and milk supplied (which was nice). The fridge however did make some funny noises and was quite loud at times. The beds were comfortable and the room was nice and warm. The door had a keypad lock to get in and we were not given a key so we could not lock the door during the night (which made me a little uncomfortable as i do like to know that know one can 'get in'). Overall i would recommend this as a good reasonable room and good value for what we paid.

Lovely place to stay.

Lovely place to stay. We spent most of our time out & about but our room was plenty big enough, comfy, good facilities etc and ideal for what we needed/wanted. Clean, nicely furnished, even some milk in fridge for a cuppa after our long journey. Definitely would stay again.

Suite in house in nice area

We enjoyed feeling like locals in the area . The owners were very friendly and helpful. We were three adults, which was a little tight but not unbearable. Everything was very clean except for dust and dirt on the floors which was probably due mostly to farm surroundings. Parking was tricky for our larger than compact car.

A private "flat" behind the house

Offering self-contained accommodation and adequate parking at the rear of a house, this guest house could not have been bettered. The only downside was the busy main road outside, but we were far enough away that we could not hear the traffic. Microwave, Cooker and fridge/freezer completed the accommodation perfectly. There was even a bottle of milk in the fridge when we arrived. It is an easy bike ride from Chester town centre, but the traffic at peak times was somewhat daunting.
