Village retreat with canal walk into Chester

About this property

Village retreat with canal walk into Chester is a pleasant house resting in the chocolate box village of Christleton, Chester, offering everything needed for a laid-back break with family, friends, and two four-legged companions. Tucked in a quiet setting yet just a stroll from the village shop and pub, this fine base invites you to step inside and begin planning relaxed days along the canal path into the heart of Chester. Drop your bags in the hallway and make your way through to the well-equipped kitchen, where you can unpack local produce and prepare simple suppers after days of exploring. The living/dining room provides an inviting hub to gather, with space to dine together and unwind with a favourite film as the evening draws in.

Upstairs, a king-size bedroom and a single room provide flexible sleeping arrangements for a small family or trio of friends, served by a practical shower room with a walk-in shower, basin, and WC. In the morning, slide open the door to the garden, enjoy a quiet moment with a brew on the patio furniture, and listen to the gentle sounds of village life unfolding around you. With off-road parking for three cars, you can come and go with ease as you set off to discover the wider area.

Follow the towpath into Chester to wander the historic walls, browse independent shops, or visit Chester Zoo for a memorable day out. Nearby, head to Cheshire Oaks for outlet shopping and dining, or drive further to Liverpool for waterfront attractions and cultural sights. When the day’s adventures are done, return to Village retreat with canal walk into Chester in Christleton, Chester, for another unhurried evening together.

The pretty Cheshire village of Christleton offers visitors a shop, a traditional village inn serving food, an historic church and a large pond, home to the resident ducks! Just 3 miles away, the Roman city of 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 town houses and Georgian terraces, to Victorian restorations and 21st century architecture. The city has much to offer the tourist, including excellent shopping, in the famous Rows, and lovely walks within the city boundaries - around the old Roman walls, along The Groves beside the River Dee or through the picturesque Grosvenor Park. Further afield, the stunning Welsh mountains and coastline, and the market towns and villages of Cheshire, are all within easy touring distance, whilst the nearby Wirral Peninsula has many splendid courses to tempt the golfing enthusiast.
