FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE

My son, daughter-in-law, and I stayed for 2 weeks and the cottage was all that we could have hoped for and more. Rob and Janet were the perfect hosts and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. If we ever go back to the UK, This is where we want to stay. So quiet and relaxing. Thank you so much Rob and Janet!

Extended Tarvin stay

Had a wonderful stay in Tarvin at Janet and Rob’s cosy cottage. Lovely and warm despite the snow! Janet and Rob are excellent hosts; they’re there if you need any advice or help, but give you privacy the rest of the time. The cottage was exactly as described and had everything we needed for our month-long stay. We were visiting from Australia to see family, and Tarvin and the cottage were the perfect base. The cottage is near a main road which is great for access but is really quiet and feels like it is in the middle of farmland. Our little dog loved it too. Thanks so much Rob and Janet!

Lovely stay

We had a lovely stay at Cherry Tree Cottage, both Robert and Janet the hosts were very welcoming. The cottage is warm and comfortable and has some great circular walks directly from the door including dog friendly pub stops along the way! The city of Chester is only a few miles away, as is the shopping outlet Cheshire Oaks. We hope to return soon.

Excellent ****** (six stars)

The cottage is very well furnished and fitted. Both landlords are lovely - our kids were even allowed to collect some eggs of their free range hens, ... We enjoyed the silence during our stay. Will book the cottage again for sure (if we are around Chester again).

A relaxing rural location

The property is well placed in a rural setting but reasonably close to Chester and Liverpool. We found the property to be very comfortable and the owners, Janet and Robert to be excellent in providing local information and for being very friendly. We plan to stay there in future as there is so much to see in Liverpool and the nearby towns such as Nantwich and Whitchurch. It’s not too far to hop over the border into N. wales to see Conwy and other historic towns.

Everything was just right!

Lovely cottage in a quiet location with a rural feel, equipped with everything we needed and cosy in colder weather. Good road connections and perfect for exploring not just Cheshire but N Wales, Peak District and Liverpool. Delightful owners were unobtrusive but on hand if needed. They very obviously care about their guests and had helpful suggestions for enjoying our stay. Thank you. All in all, perfect.

Lovely break away with family after waiting 7 months for it to happen!! Ideal place for relaxing

Excellent holiday hosts were extremely helpful & the lovely touch of wine n fresh eggs were grand. We felt that little things let the beautiful home down such as no toilet brush holder, the toaster was broken n you had to use a knife to lower the bread down & the kitchen was a little run down. But overal these things didn’t stop us having a good time & it was nice to unwind after a hard year!! We would definitely come back to the prophase we didn’t have the best weather & we couldn’t really take the dogs very far!!
