Guests say
Canal View is a beautifully renovated and immaculately clean cottage set in a tranquil location right beside the canal, offering picturesque views and a peaceful atmosphere. Guests consistently praise the high standard of comfort, thoughtful touches, and the well-equipped kitchen. The welcoming hosts are frequently mentioned for their friendliness and helpfulness. Visitors enjoy relaxing by the water, watching boats and wildlife, and exploring the surrounding countryside. Occasional minor suggestions, such as softer bedding or updated kitchenware, are far outweighed by the overwhelmingly positive feedback.
Cleanliness is repeatedly highlighted, with guests describing the cottage as spotlessly clean, immaculate, and very well maintained throughout their stay.
The location is highly praised for its peaceful setting right on the canal, beautiful views, and easy access to walks and local attractions. A few mention the approach road is narrow, but this does not detract from the overall experience.
Guests find the cottage extremely comfortable, with cosy beds and a homely atmosphere. One or two guests noted a preference for firmer or cooler bedding, but comfort is otherwise universally commended.
The cottage is described as exceptionally well-equipped, with a modern kitchen, quality furnishings, and thoughtful extras. Minor suggestions include updating baking sheets and noting that some seating may be low for elderly guests.
Many guests mention generous welcome packs, often including homemade cake, wine, and other treats. While these thoughtful touches are frequently noted, it should be politely stated that such gifts are not guaranteed.

A beautiful cottage in an excellent location to relax and watch the boats go by. The welcome pack was outstanding and the hosts were there, but unobtrusive. It is a good walk up the towpath to Elsmere, but on a nice day well worth it.

Canal view is a hidden gem.Such a lovely cottage with everything you could want, in a very peaceful and relaxing location. It is tastefully presented and furnished and immaculately clean, all products are high end. It will accommodate four people comfortably.The canal is a few meters away and so many narrowboats pass by on the way to the Pontcysylite Aqueduct on the Llangollen canal ( this is a must day out ).Locally you can find the wonderful lakes/ meres around the town of Ellesmere ( not to be confused with Ellesmere Port).We want to thank Kristine and Michael for a wonderful stay…. We hope to be back soon!!Adrienne and Jim
