    The location was perfect for our visit to Chester Racecourse. Quiet and remote but still a very reasonable price into Chester via uber.
  • Dawn

    The location was perfect. Easy to get to Cheshire oaks which was our reason for accommodation. Loved the hot tub, made our Saturday evening.
  • Simone

    The overall stay was just what we needed. Relaxing, quiet and revitalising. Cottage was amazing! Fab facilities, comfy furniture and very homely. Hot tub was a bonus.

Neighbourhood information

Chester has quite rightly been described as 'the jewel of the North-West of England'. Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of the city is that within a very small area there is evidence of every period of history - from the old walls and amphitheatre of Roman times, through medieval churches, Elizabethan timber-framed townhouses and Georgian terraces, to Victorian restorations and 21st century architecture. The city has much to offer the tourist, including excellent shopping in and around the famous Tudor 'Rows' and lovely walks along the Roman Walls, beside the River Dee and through the picturesque Grosvenor Park. Explore Chester's beautiful medieval cathedral, visit Chester Racecourse or spend a day at the world renowned Chester Zoo. Further afield, the stunning Welsh mountains and coastline, the quaint market towns and villages of Cheshire and the Wirral Peninsula with its first class golf courses, are all within easy touring distance, whilst frequent rail services make Liverpool, Manchester and the North Wales coast readily accessible.
