This is easily the best cottage we've stayed at. It is perfect for 2 grandparents, 2 adults and 3 kids, 8 to 14. The cottage is beautiful, well laid out and has everything you could need. The owners are a lovely family who without being intrusive make sure they do everything they can to make your stay perfect. The local area has so much to do the kids loved everywhere we went. Can't wait to go back. A big thank you to Rob, the owner

A group of us stayed at Mill Barn, to enjoy cycling around the Cheshire Lanes. The house is comfortable and well-equipped, there was everything we needed. The rooms are really nice, and there's an outdoor table which would be great in warm weather. The pub nearby was a good place to wander to for a drink or meal. Watch out for the low wall in the drive which one of our party managed to scrape with his car.
