Comfortable stay

Well furnished and equipped home. Beds are particularly comfortable, but glad we took our own pillows. It's a 10 minute drive into Chester or a nice 30 minute walk along a disused railway line, the Shropshire Union Canal and then onto the City Walls.

Short break in Chester

The property was a great base for a short stay in Chester for a family of 5. We were no more than 15 minutes from some of the notable local attractions and amenities. The house itself suited our needs and was in a quiet neighbourhood. The house and rooms were of ample size to accommodate 2 adults and 3 children (all under 13).

No items that were listed

The host was friendly , the accommodation was in a good location peaceful and comfortable, But the property could do with some TLC, as well as a good clean. And the listing on booking site needs to be checked by both host and booking site , has items listed wasn't found at property, hot tub and a BBQ, two of the reason why it was booked, very disappointed plus garden furniture was neglected. Once these issue are addressed it will be an amazing place to stay has a good style of decoration.
