  Absolutely incredible.

  Could not have wished for more. The beds were incredibly comfortable. The cottage was spotless and had everything we could want (including a bottle of Prosecco). The orchard is lovely and has gorgeous plum, apple and pear trees which the kids loved. The barn owl and alpaca camera was a great touch and became the main feature of all the TVs in the cottage. The 4 alpacas on site were gorgeous and so well looked after. The story about Fudge the dog and Olivia captured my children's imagination and the creature hunt in the orchard was superb. We were advised parking was narrow but this was not an issue for us. The location is excellent. 3 miles away from Cheshire Oaks, Chester Zoo, Blue Planet Aquarium. So much to see in the area. Lovely quiet hamlet to stay in and chill out. Thank you for such an incredible base for our holiday.

  Great location and an excellent cottage.

  Easy close access to Chester, Cheshire Oaks retail and entertainment and M53 and M56 motorways. Beautifully presented cottage with quality furniture, fixtures and fittings. Cutlery was a bit limited but everything else was fine. While we completely understand why you would use a corner sofa unit we found it fairly uncomfortable and couldn’t really sit 4 on it. The parking is tight so it might be worth asking guests with small cars to park further in so larger cars can use the spaces with better access. We found small cars using the larger spaces and if we couldn’t park at the gates it was very hard to park my estate car. Lots of choice for pubs serving good food nearby. If we had to move to another part of the country then right near this cottage would be our choice. Would happily stay here again.

  The house was nice and the views were wonderful, the house hadn’t seen a duster or polish in a while, kitchen area very small.

  Shower broke whilst in use, but was replaced the same day. Needs another mirror upstairs and a clothes rail in both rooms, had to go up and down stairs to get dressed do hair and makeup as the mirror was in the living area. The football table was not there as shown in the photos. Welcome book had nothing in, could have provided some info on the area, take away menus or even somewhere for guest to leave recommendations on where to go/eat. It could also include the price list to hire the hot tub (which are overpriced) Overall it wasn’t bad but would not return. I will say they communicated well via email and very kindly posted an item I left behind. But would have been nice for them to say hello and come and speak in person as the house is literally on their back garden.

  Absolutely gorgeous cottage - cosy and comfortable in a quiet and peaceful location, within walking distance of Tarvin itself.

  Perfect location for visiting Chester, Liverpool and loads of other places. Rita and Ian the owners live next door and and we met Rita - she was so welcoming and helpful. The cottage is well equipped with all the things you would need, and there was fresh milk in the fridge when we arrived, along with a handy selection of tea and coffee. Lots of little touches to make it feel like a home from home - fresh flowers on the kitchen windowsill, lots of books on the bookcase, spare throws and cosy blankets if it got too chilly! Cannot fault this cottage at all - it was perfect for our short stay. We would 100% stay again, and would absolutely recommend! Thank you Rita and Ian for a wonderful stay!

  Great place for a country break whilst also being near Chester.

  We went away with my parents and the rooms were great. The beds were really comfortable and on the soft side which was great for us. The kitchen had all the amenities you would need for self catering and even some oil and salt and pepper as well as a welcome basket of tea, hot chocolate and coffee. One of the highlights for us was the proximity to some great pubs and restaurants (the Sunday lunch at Shrewsbury Arms was great). There are some lovely places to walk nearby and if you have small kids the orchard garden has some great entertainment with a lovely book you can buy to support Alder Hey hospital. We spent hours watching the owl box and bird feeder cameras for entertainment!
