“Myself and my husband and son enjoyed an overnight stay at this wonderful property, we were warmly welcomed by Maureen and Richard. The room was a family room, it was very clean and the beds were so comfortable. Our reason for visiting this lovely area was because we had tickets booked for Chester Zoo. After a tasty meal at the Childe of Hale pub (just over the road) the following morning we were presented with lots of wonderful choice for breakfast, cereal, full English and hot sandwiches which my son and husband chose I could not resist the full English. They were cooked to perfection. We look forward to revisiting after finding more wonderful areas to visit close by. Thank you Maureen and Richard for making our stay that extra bit special.

“From start to finish the stay was just perfect. We were a little worried about travelling during Covid but Maureen and James and her family made us feel right at home. The family room was perfect and the kids were so happy. Maureen was very welcoming upon arrival and even got us some warm milk for the little one without us even having to ask. The cooked breakfast and all the other cereals etc were delicious and presented just beautifully. Can't wait to go back.” Read more

The cottage is perfect for a taste of both worlds-experiencing an awesome city down the road and relaxing in the quiet of the countryside in a village with a fascinating figure as a part of its history.” Read more

“Easy to find, 20 minutes to Liverpool centre, restaurant in 2 minutes’ walk, beautiful house and garden, very friendly and helpful hosts. Highly recommended. 🙂”

“The location is an idyllic little village between Widnes and Liverpool, but it feels a world away, like going back in time. The hosts are very amenable, friendly and helpful and the breakfast was great. Can't fault this place, thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay. (We ate dinner at the Childe of Hale pub across the road, that too was excellent.)” Read more
