  • "This is a beautiful cottage which is very comfortable and has a lovely garden."

    It overlooks Beeston Castle and there are many good walks straight from the house.

  • "This is a lovely place to stay and we will come back again."

    The beds are comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. There are plenty of places to visit nearby as well as restaurants and pubs.

  • "We greatly enjoyed our New Year week, exploring the area."

    The property is attractive, and we were warm with the open fires despite very low temperatures. One bedroom is a twin and smaller than the other, and not en suite. However, we were very comfortable, and loved the views of Beeston Castle and countryside. We cooked several meals and felt very at home. Liverpool, Chester and Stoke all within easy reach, as were a number of National Trust properties and gardens.

  • "This is unreal."

    Possibly like a film. Perfect stay gorgeous house. Owners are lovely and are there of you need them but will leave you alone. Dog friendly too. Short distance from Tarporley and the gorgeous pheasant inn. Already booked to go again.

  • "Wheelwrights Cottage was like a chocolate box cover, beautiful cottage in stunning grounds."

    We spent a week there using it as a base to visit surrounding areas, travelling into Wales visiting Bangor, Conwy, Llandudno, then Chester and also spent a wonderful day at the Ironbridge Museum. So much to see and do all within an hour or so drive. Andrew and Lulu and Mr Parker made us feel so welcome and when unexpected problems occurred (not of their making) Lulu was quick at hand to get them sorted. We would highly recommend Wheelwrights Cottage.

    Ideal for dog owners. The property owner very friendly and helpful. Would thoroughly recommend a break in this lovely cottage.

  • "We absolutely loved our stay in the cottage, it had everything we needed and is in a great location - we were only there for a few days but did several local walks straight from the cottage and went over to Chester for a longer day out."

    Much bigger than we expected and had a lovely garden which our cocker loved too. Can't recommend it enough.

  • "A beautiful cottage that is picture perfect complete with roses around the doorway."

    It is an absolute gem, surrounded by gorgeous countryside and views and wonderfully peaceful. Inside it is spotlessly clean, cosy and the decor is lovely, the living room, complete with library area is stunning. The garden is equally beautiful and plenty of space to sit and enjoy the scenery around and the parking space off road is very useful. The owners are next door and are very friendly but unobtrusive and they made us feel very welcome. We really enjoyed our short break in Wheelwright’s Cottage and will hopefully return!

    Exposed oak beams, large open fireplace, fascinating library and simply gorgeous garden with wisteria, nesting birds and views of both local castles. The beds are so comfortable. The lovely and friendly owners are next door.

  • "Wheelwright’s Cottage is a lovely, pretty cottage and gardens surrounded by peaceful countryside with views of nearby Beeston Castle."

  • "This is the loveliest cottage in the world!"

    We were so lucky to be the first guests to stay here and can safely say we will be booking our return very soon. The cottage has a wonderful cosy feeling and we couldn’t stop WOWing at every turn. The library is the star of the show! The decor is incredibly tasteful yet warm and homely, with large spacious rooms and inviting fireplaces in the lounge and kitchen. We had absolutely everything we needed and Lulu couldn’t have been a more welcoming host. The bed was super comfy and the bathrooms are top-end with beautiful views over the countryside. The lovely enclosed garden has been thoughtfully designed and will be a gorgeous place to enjoy the sunshine in the summer - but this will be a stunning place to stay any time of year. The location is excellent for walking, with dozens of nearby hiking trails and a number of excellent food pubs within an hour’s walk - there is a circular route to the Pheasant which is highly recommended. From the house there are beautiful views of both Beeston and Peckforton Castles - the sunsets are insane (weather permitting) and it was magical to see the stars at night due to the lack of light pollution. Lulu has thought of every detail and worked so hard to create this little piece of heaven. We couldn’t recommend a stay here high highly enough - though I almost don’t want to share this review so you all don’t book it up!

TARPORLEY

Chester 10 miles.

Tarporley is located in the local authority area of Cheshire West and Chester in rural Cheshire and the village is considered one of the county’s most attractive villages. The countryside surrounding Tarporley is perfect walking terrain, the famous Sandstone Trail, one of the best of the shorter long-distance trails in the north of England, passes close to the town. Tarporley Carnival, an annual event which takes place in July, is a popular community event with a parade in High Street to the show ground on Community Field. The village has also become something of a shopper’s haven. Further afield lies Chester, which has much to offer the tourist, including excellent shopping in and around the famous Tudor 'Rows' and lovely walks along the Roman Walls, beside the River Dee and through the picturesque Grosvenor Park.
