    "Such a lovely unique cottage, in a great location to explore Cheshire."

    The cottage has been renovated to a high standard. There is an issue with the fridge / freezer which i reported to the owners, so hopefully this is sorted for future guests. The kitchen equipment i found quite limited compared to other properties I have stayed in, with the addition of an oven tray, Sieve and better frying pan it would make a big difference. Overall it's a great place, would highly recommend it to friends and would stay again

    Hi Nicola Thank you so much for your review and feedback and I apologise our response has taken a couple of weeks, this is a new system to us. The fridge freezer is now sorted, it just needed a new seal but thankyou for letting us know We have also added a couple of oven trays and utensils for future guests. Thankyou again for your positive feedback and we are really pleased to hear that you enjoyed the cottage and area :-) And of course great to hear that you would recommend the cottage and friends and would stay again !

    "Absolutely stunning cottage ."

    Beds were extremely comfortable. Fridge and freezer not the best . Seal had gone on fridge and freezer box doesn't close . No baking trays to use the oven . So I wouldn't recommend taking food with you . Amazing welcome basket on our arrival and lots of info to read . Couldn't leave the dogs alone outside as not secure ( could easily climb through the gate ) Road outside cottage reasonably quiet but cars travel at very high speed so be aware . Stunning living room at night with the fire and plenty of candles around . Very relaxing Downstairs shower room very handy although be careful with the sink .. it's stunning but not very practical... shower tray starts to overflow if you are in shower for longer than a few minutes. Overall a gorgeous place to stay and a great base for exploring Cheshire etc

    Hi Helen Thankyou for your review and feedback, we really appreciate it The freezer / ice box in the fridge has now been resolved (it had some ice preventing it closing well) and the fridge has a new seal so I am sorry this did not work as well as it could have done for your stay but hopefully will work well for future guests and if you ever return. We have also taken on board yours and other guests feedback regarding oven trays and utensils so more of these have been added to now The property is fenced at the back but the front garden does have a 5 bar gate with gaps as you say so for small dogs they would need watching, however, we aim to be very dog friendly, having 3 large dogs ourselves and will be adding fencing to the back of the 5 bar gate this weekend. Thankyou again for your feedback and review, it helps us to resolve any minor additions we can make to the cottage. I am pleased you liked the cottage and and area and found it relaxing and would love to welcome you back if you are ever in the area again ! Kind Regards Lindsey Property Owner

    "Requested twin bedroom to be made into king bedroom which wasn’t done Fridge ..."

    Requested twin bedroom to be made into king bedroom which wasn’t done Fridge door wasn’t closing properly making temperature in the fridge to high We took milk and yogurts with us that went sour Couldn’t get live stations on the tv so we had to watch catch up stations We contacted the owner but they where not willing to come out to the cottage Kitchen utensils very sparse which meant eating out most of the week The property was very expensive for the facilities in the cottage Certainly not five star
