Chester 10 miles; Llangollen 19 miles.
The village of Farndon nestles quietly near the River Dee, approximately 10 miles south of Chester. The village was an important place historically and has been a site of conflict and cultural exchange since the Angles settled in the area in the 8th century. The border moved numerous times during the following centuries, placing Farndon alternately in Wales and England. Today visitors will find splendid little shops, as well as welcoming pubs, ideal for relaxing in with friends and family. Why not visit the Roman city of Chester with its famous 'Rows', excellent shopping and celebrated zoo? For those who like walking and outdoor activities, Snowdonia National Park is only a couple of hours drive away and is ideal for days out. Farndon is the perfect base from which to enjoy this beautiful and exciting region.

A charming detached cottage set in the pretty village of Farndon in Cheshire, close to the border with North Wales. The property has a fine Norfolk Reed thatched roof, giving it a true 'chocolate box' feel, and provides comfortable, modern accommodation. Set off the kitchen is a light and spacious conservatory overlooking fields to one side, and to the rear guests will find a pleasant patio area; ideal for dining 'al fresco'. Within walking distance of village shops and welcoming pubs, this is a great spot for a quiet break, yet it also makes for a fantastic base from which to explore the region. The historic Roman city of Chester is less than ten miles away, and popular Welsh attractions such as Llangollen and the Snowdonia National Park are within easy reach; perfect for days out.

The owner made us feel very welcome and found information for us when asked.A very good location for seeing Chester and north Wales.
The cottage was comfortable and especially the beds. The garden was very attractive.
There was a need for a bedside table in the bedroom with two single beds.
Lovely to sit in a conservatory and watch the birds.
Excellent value.
