  • "The location is great, however the accommodation is disappointing."

    All brown and beige, cheap lino on the kitchen and bathroom floors, lack of wardrobe space, no shelves in the bathroom, uncomfortable sofa and armchair, beds look very oldfashioned - not what you'd expect for the money spent. Cleaning equipment left in the apartment's hallway. Lovely views, and staff very pleasant.

    . All feedback is important to us and I have referred your comments to my Director for further improvement. We are pleased you enjoyed the views and the staff at Wrenbury Marina were pleasant. Thank you for sharing your experience. Property Owner

  • "The grain store at Wrenbury Mill sits above the chandlery and gift shop and alongside the canal by the bridge."

    There are lovely canal and boat views from all windows but particularly from the main bedroom. Lovely and quiet (Feb half term). A perfect base from which to explore both near and far. Some lovely canalside walks - great for dogs. Friendly people. Well stocked local shop. Good pub Dusty Miller across the bridge and great ice-cream at Snugbury's near Nantwich. Had a lovely stay.

    Thank you for sharing your experience. We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay at our Grain Store Apartment. Property Owner

  • "Delightful apartment next to several canal walks and lovely pub."

    Apartment was very clean, light and airy. It does however have quite a narrow staircase up to it. Small shop 10 minutes walk. Might benefit from selection of leaflets for places to visit etc as several nearby are closed Mondays and Tuesdays!

    Thank you for sharing your experience. We are pleased you loved our apartment at our Wrenbury Mill Marina. We thank you for your feedback and will forward this to the Marina for improvement on the excursions nearby. Property Owner

    The stairs are a bit steep so difficult if you have disabilities.

    Well positioned for long countryside walks (great with dogs) whilst being within 10 minute of Nantwich town centre. The silent entrainment of passing narrow/canal boat traffic was a delight. Could not have asked for more. Well equipped and maintained accommodation don’t need dishwasher/ washing machine/tumble drier - it’s a holiday!!! Will definitely return.m

WRENBURY

Nantwich 5.5 miles; Whitchurch 6 miles.

The village of Wrenbury is an idyllic spot nestled in south Cheshire, within reach of both Nantwich and Whitchurch, and set along the picturesque locks of the Shropshire Union Canal. Mentioned in the Domesday Book, this historic village offers a quintessential English countryside experience, with peaceful walks, canal boating, access to market towns and a friendly community atmosphere. Wrenbury has a Post Office, shops, two pubs, a church and a village green, making it a charming and well-equipped base for visitors seeking a slower pace of life. Traditional pubs offer hearty fare and a warm welcome, while the canal towpaths invite gentle strolls past picturesque locks and passing narrowboats. Its location on the Shropshire Union Canal is a real highlight, with the impressive Wrenbury Canal Lift standing as a unique and fascinating feature right beside the village, an engineering marvel that adds character to the landscape. Close by is the delightful market town of Nantwich, set on the banks of the River Weaver and the Shropshire Union Canal. It is famous for its outdoor Brine Pool, one of the few remaining in the UK and heated throughout the summer, perfect for a refreshing dip. There are regular market days throughout the week and a monthly farmers' market showcasing the best of produce from the local area. Nantwich town centre is pedestrianised and benefits from some superb examples of historic buildings, and is well worth visiting in spring and summer when it comes alive with vibrant floral displays and bustling street life. Also within reach is Whitchurch, a market town with many splendid buildings from Medieval, Tudor and Georgian times, all dominated by St. Alkmund’s Church. Internationally renowned for its clock production dating back to the 1650s, Whitchurch is known as "the Home of Tower Clocks". Its rich heritage and architectural beauty make it a rewarding stop for history lovers. With its proximity to Nantwich and Chester, Wrenbury makes a wonderful base for exploring Cheshire’s heritage and landscapes, all while enjoying the charm and tranquillity of village life.
