Sandmartins

The radiator in lounge under window didn’t work.

The TV was old not connected to internet not a Smart TV. Good size cottage.

Nice place, very helpful owners especially when we left something and they sent it to us Loads of space and comfortable settees Minor issue with wireless code, couple of the password letters easy to misread

This bungalow is beautiful, everything you need.

Cosy warm and even though in beautiful countryside very easy to get to all surrounding places. If going into Chester drive in and park at the racecourse £5.50 for all day and a very short walk to the centre (we are in our 70s and had no trouble with the walk). Would definitely come again and happy to recommend

Lovely peaceful location with easy access to amenities.

The cottage was very bright and spacious and had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. Thank you for the Welsh cakes too

Beautiful generous size bungalow located on a working farm situated in the village of Higher Kinnerton.

The accommodation was comfortable with everything provided for a stay. Tom looked after us very well and checked in on us to make sure everything was ok. We appreciated the Welsh cakes left out on our arrival. The bungalow is in a great position to explore North Wales and the Chester area. We had a lovely meal at the Royal Oak pub located close by.

Owner friendly and accessible for any queries.

Large airy bungalow on farm location with all facilities we needed for a comfortable stay. Easy parking. Enjoyed the Welsh cakes and flowers left for us. Tea, coffee, sugar, milk in the kitchen, thank you. Loads to visit in the area. Spent a lovely day in Chester, also went on a canal trip on the Pontcysyllte Aquaduct, visited Ness Botanic gardens and the RSPB Wetlands to name a few. All helped by the lovely weather we had.

Very spacious bungalow with lots of parking and friendly owners.

Very convenient for Chester and North Wales. Would happily stay again.

Loved our stay at Sandmartins, clean, comfortable, a home from home and plenty to see and occupy our grandchildren in the area

Fantastic cottage with everything you need, garden bench was great for eating outside, loved having a fire in the evenings.

Great location for visiting Liverpool, chester and north Wales, would highly recommend

Fantastic little gem tucked away giving is a base to roam across north wales and nw england.

100% recommend and will book again very quiet considering it on a working farm pure bliss

We had a lovely 5 days at the sandmartin would recommend this bungalow, the owner was very helpful and the accommodation was as described and good quality

A very spacious bungalow comfortably furnished and well equipped for a self catering option if you don't want to eat out.

Plenty of parking. Access to a private wild garden from your accommodation is handy for dog owners. There's separate a picnic area if you want to eat outside. A quiet location in lovely countryside with plenty of local public footpath walks across farmland, through villages and woodland. The location is central to explore N Wales, the Wirral Liverpool and Manchester and ideal for NT members. Anticipate a warm welcome from Les and Mandy who were very obliging and helpful.

Very spacious cottage .

beautiful area. Close to so many places. My only issue was the sofa found it to be uncomfortable but we'll definitely be going back

The cottage had everything we needed and the owners were on hand if we needed anything - they offered directions when we discovered the brook near the place had flooded and we had to go around.

There were dog towels, a bowl, baggies and treats for our pooch and we even had a few treats for the humans (and milk for a cuppa). Very well appointed cottage, peaceful surroundings. The nearby royal oak pub was also dog friendly and did really nice food, with a good kids menu too.

Delightful, spacious bungalow that was very well equipped for a comfortable stay.

Cosy and warm , well placed for north wales and Chester. Lovely owners who gave us a very warm welcome.

Cannot fault the place , lovely clean, warm, comfy, plenty of room, good sized bedrooms, ample cooking and cleaning items to use, nice out door area`s, friendly welcome on arrival, good parking spaces, close to beach`s, villages, town`s and of course Chester zoo, very tranquil good views over the farm land.

and the log fire made our stay even better. The only thing we would suggest is to put some coat hooks and shoe rack in the hall way. Many thanks for our stay.

Fabulous hosts, lovely bungalow has everything you would need and more, ideal location for all that's to see in North Wales, no complaints from us at all and we will definitely be going back.

This is a lovely, spacious property in a quiet rural setting, with everything anyone could possibly need.

It is within reach of many places of interest in North Wales and North-West England. Our hosts, Mandy and Les, were friendly and helpful, and we thoroughly recommend it.

Beautiful cottage.

Lovely and clean. Bathroom with walk in shower also very clean. Comfy beds and pretty lounge area, kitchen a dream to be in. Really peaceful place to stay. Only drawback is the garden area. The private area outside the side door was very unkempt. Its only a small area but it's a perfect sun trap to be able to enjoy outdoor eating, lounging and sunbathing but unfortunately the grass and borders are too overgrown and really need to be much better maintained. There was dog mess around the borders..not nice to be sitting near to. There were no chairs or even a small table to put a drink on although 3 small garden chairs we provided when we asked the owner as we got fed up hauling kitchen chairs outside in order to be able to sit down with a drink and sunbathe, not very comfortable sitting on a straight back dining chair. Really nice pond containing pond flowers but water so dirty and full of grass cuttings we couldn't see any fish although we knew they were in there somewhere! Perhaps a small team of gardeners could be brought in to maintain that rear garden on a weekly basis during summer so that it can be maintained to that beautiful little area that it should be.

We had an excellent week at the holiday home.

The accommodation was well appointed and Mr and Mrs Cannon made us welcome. The bungalow is on a farm in a rural location so a car is essential. However there is a village nearby which has an excellent pub, a village store and a surprisingly upmarket coffee shop! For exploring the area Chester (including the Zoo) is within easy reach with Park & Ride buses (£2 return) from Wrexham Road about 5 miles away. Also Wrexham, Flint and Mold are less than 10 miles so there are other places to explore. Erddig National Tust is well worth a visit and we spent a whole day there. The large Chester Oaks Designer Outlet at Ellesmere Port is also within range. In all a good week exploring a new area from a comfortable base.

We had a lovely 4 night break at Sandmartins.

On a farm on a nice quiet country lane but within easy reach of the village. Owners were very friendly and helpful and always on hand. The bungalow is really large and very well equipped. We had a small problem with the hot tap in the kitchen, but wasn’t a big deal as there was a dishwasher and tablets supplied. We would definitely stay there again and will recommend to friends and family. If there had been a second toilet that would have been useful.

We had a great holiday, quiet and restful.

The bungalow was warm and comfortable, the weather cold, wet and snow. That did not spoil our break away. Many thanks. Next time maybe in the summer!

Beautiful place and beautiful bungalow.

Very large and very clean and Tidy. Thank you.

Sandmartins is a comfortable, spacious, well equipped bungalow.

It is well placed to visit Chester and the North Wales coastline. The bungalow is situated in a yard with the farmhouse and there is adequate parking. It would have been even better to been able to park on the drive to the bungalow rather than running in the rain from the car to the front door, but really very little else to mention.

Lovely and spacious

We had an absolutely lovely stay.

This was our second visit and we were not disappointed. Cottage is exactly as described and extremely clean. We will be back again in the spring.

We have just returned from a weeks stay here.

The owners Mandy and Les are so lovely and helpful. Our grandson loved seeing the animals and tractors. The bungalow is really lovely and would recommend it. This is not a negative but just a thought that the replacement of the freezer, and a baking sheet would be very useful for families that intend to eat at the property. We would return in the future.

Lovely bungalow near village.

Well equipped and clean. Great road links to North Wales and Chester. We had a relaxing stay. On site owners friendly and helpful.

Sandmartins was clean and comfortable.

Lots of places to visit in the area and good places to eat

Sandmartins was a very good stay would recommend

I had a great time while staying at the cottage.

Just what I wanted. Mandy & Les are great hosts and very helpful.

This a very comfortable cottage and much larger than we expected.

It is in a great position being down a long quiet country lane and yet close to the attractions that Chester has to offer. The owners were very helpful and on site if we needed anything. The flowers and milk on arrival were a nice touch. We would definitely recommend it. The kitchen is spacious and has everything you would need to cook for a family but the local pub is just down the lane and is very welcoming.!

Lovely bungalow.

Lovely base for exploring the area.

Excellent accomodation and owners raally enjoyed the stay thanks very much.

Lovely bungalow on a quiet road.

The owners were welcoming and had put up a Xmas tree for us.

A deceptively large cottage ideally placed to explore Chester and the surrounding area.

Great facilities with the owners on hand if you need them. The pictures dont do the cottage justice - plenty of room for our family of 4 for a week's stay. Definitely one to return to

The couple were friendly and easy to talk to

The property is really nicely presented and seems to have had a recent refresh.

Rooms are spacious with lots of storage. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need, including dishwasher tablets and washing capsules. We cooked ourselves an entire Sunday roast and had everything we needed. Beds comfy with nice thick duvets. Kids were a bit disappointed by the lack of Netflix etc but learnt to watch 'real' TV :). A lovely location to explore the North Wales beaches, Chester Zoo, and the Wirral. A local shop and two friendly pubs in walking distance (but take a torch). We found some lovely dog walks in local nature reserves and Mandy let us wash down the muddy pooches in the old dairy. We had three adults and two kids so had to negotiate around the one bathroom. One recommendation would be a lock on the bathroom door. Thank you, a lovely holiday xx.

Our original cottage was cancelled so we were grateful to be able to book this house over half term.

The owner was welcoming on arrival, and let us know about some local amenities for our small children. The bungalow is on farm on a country road and was peaceful. It is not far from main roads. The house was clean. I hope to be constructive in mentioning that I have stayed in a number of Sykes cottages and I felt that this house, in this price bracket, would benefit from: a king/super king instead of a double in the largest bedroom. The mattress felt raised in the middle so that you were rolling off. The bed was also squeaky. A larger fridge. The under counter fridge is rather small if you planned to cook your own meals. An indoor clothes airer. There is a rotary in the garden which needs more pegs. I also felt that outside furniture and a BBQ, in a screened off area of the garden would greatly add to the amenity. The garden is open to the shared drive. Overall I would recommend this location.

Very spacious accommodation and, although in a very rural setting, just 10 mins from Chester Park and Ride terminal and 10 mins from the excellent Broughton Retail Park.

A small shop and two pubs are within walking distance. The property is owned by an extremely nice couple, Les and Mandy, who were very helpful. They even provided a Christmas tree during our stay and fitted lights around the outside of the cottage. It was a pleasure spending time at this accommodation.
