Paul is a really friendly and very helpful host. Our 2 night stay, was very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed. We had privacy and peace throughout. The Annex is clean, well maintained, practical and also spacious. Unwinding here was simple and if that is what you are looking for, you cannot go wrong by staying here. Me and my partner are already planning on returning.

A beautiful, quiet setting with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Paul did everything he could to make our stay relaxing. The only slight drawback which he wasn’t able to affect was intermittent Wi-Fi, but didn’t affect our stay too much as we were looking for a quiet retreat.

Very bad owner

The owner is very rude, there camera pointing onto the hot tub, which is very unsettling, aswell as another 2 camera on garden. And he doesn't leave that much wood to heat up hot tub!! I stayed me and my 2 kids, and got shouted at because I had my music on at 11pm. He threatened to kick me out or call police if I don't turn music off. Not a nice person and very rude, always interrupting, when I spoken. Good luck to whoever stays here and I'd advise strongly for no single women to go.

Brilliant short break

Lovely accommodation. Clean, tidy and in beautiful surroundings. Host Paul was welcoming and helpful but not overbearing and easy to contact. Upstairs room with balcony was extremely comfortable and a lovely sun trap. Little bedroom downstairs was a great bonus. Hot tub was clean,and we thoroughly enjoyed using it. Kitchen was well equipped and whole annex was modern and had everything you could need. Outside areas were well kept and lovely decking to eat on . Would love to return.

Relaxing and Peaceful

A great location to de-stress and unwind and although the weather was mix of sunshine and showers, the covered area overlooking the garden meant that we could still sit outside and enjoy the fresh air. We had planned on visiting both Manchester and Chester by train however with train times at just once per hour, we skipped Manchester this time and used the Park & Ride from Chester Zoo to Chester. We also visited Lady Lever art gallery at Port Sunlight and ended up spending several hours in the village once parked up (free parking) As with any holiday, there are always elements that aren't the same as 'home'... Such as the one bathroom which is off the upstairs bedroom meaning our 17 year old had to come into our room at night by phone torchlight... Not what we're used to but it was fine but be aware if you have a guest staying in the bed downstairs off the lounge that may need the bathroom a few times in the night... A lovely week away though and one tip I would share is to set your phone sat nav from inside the property and look there if you need to head out left or right from the drive. We got a bit lost looking for Tescos on the first evening and my sat nav lost it's signal completely so keeping a good old fashioned map in your car too would be a good idea - We used ours a few times :)

We had an amazing week the house is beautiful and set in a lovely location. Highlights are the deck in the tree canopy and the hot tub. Totally rural location but very close to so many fun things to do. Chester zoo, blue planet, Cheshire oaks, Chester to name a few. Paul was a great host very helpful when we needed help but left us to it the rest of the week. We will definitely return.
