About this property
Cheshire Views is a charming cottage set in the rural outskirts of Malpas in Cheshire. Presenting attractive countryside scenery, proximity to Clwydian Range & Dee Valley National Landscape and a woodburning stove, this pet-friendly abode is ideal for families seeking a refreshing break. Arriving at Cheshire Views, you can park roadside before making your way down the path towards the cottage. The stone and brick frontage comes into view as you approach, with a neat gravelled garden near the front door offering a simple but charming welcome before you step inside to begin your stay. Continue through and the spacious kitchen and dining room stretches out ahead, bright with natural light and touches of greenery. As you walk across the tiled floor, the room invites you to prepare meals while chatting across the space, with the dining table ready for shared dinners. A stable door opens to the outside, guiding you down the path that runs beside the property and leads to the expansive garden. Here, a generous lawn offers plenty of room for children or pets to explore, while raised decking sits at the far end, perfectly placed for outdoor seating and long afternoons soaking up views across the fields and the Cheshire Plains. You can picture evenings gathered around the fire pit, preparing food on the barbecue or sinking into the bubbling hot tub beneath the open sky. Returning indoors, carpeted stairs rise from the sitting room to the first floor where the bedrooms await. The first double room rests to the right, styled in warm tones with artwork adorning the walls and thoughtful touches such as bedside lighting and a mirror. Just along the landing, a few steps lead up to the bathroom where pretty patterned tiles frame the bath and shower, creating an appealing place to refresh after days spent exploring. The second double bedroom sits at the far end, offering similarly warm décor and a charming outlook from the window across the neighbouring landscape.The first double room rests to the right, styled in warm tones with artwork adorning the walls and thoughtful touches such as bedside lighting and a mirror.

Outside the cottage, a short wander brings you into the centre of Malpas where local pubs, shops and eateries offer everything from hearty meals to convenient essentials. For memorable days out, Cheshire Views places you within reach of some exceptional attractions. The Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape lies within an hour and rewards walkers with heather topped ridges, sweeping panoramas and valleys shaped by ancient geology. Chester is also close enough for a day trip, inviting you to stroll beneath the historic Rows, marvel at the cathedral and follow the city walls that circle the centre. A further highlight is Bolesworth Castle, a celebrated venue known for its car festivals, equestrian events and weddings, all set within magnificent grounds. Families will also relish the chance to explore Chester Zoo where immersive habitats, rare species and beautifully designed enclosures offer a complete day of discovery. With its characterful setting, charming interior touches and far-reaching countryside views, Cheshire Views provides a lovely base for families wishing to enjoy the landscapes and attractions of Cheshire.
Malpas is a charming village deep in the south Cheshire countryside, home to Norman Motte and Bailey Castle, as well as a medieval street pattern. There are ample shops in the area, together with traditional inns, one being The Lion at Malpas, a quintessentially British inn serving delicious food and drink, with beautifully designed seating spaces to relax in, it dates back to the 16th century and is a real gem. The area is scattered with holiday cottages, found tucked away in quiet parts of the town, or in the beautiful surrounding countryside. Without doubt the town's treasure is its church, built of rich red sandstone with good examples of fine medieval work. Malpas lies within the shadow of the Peckforton Hills, is close to Tarporley and the Delamere Forest, with Tilston and Tushingham being within easy reach. There is access to Chester races or Bangor on Dee racecourse, several golf courses and fishing. It is good cycling countryside and boating is one of the pleasures of the nearby Shropshire Grand Union Canal. Cholmondeley Castle and Garden is well worth visiting, one of the region’s top tourist attractions.
