We had such a lovely 2 night stay in this gorgeous cottage. It had everything we needed and was very clean and the shower was lovely and powerful! We enjoyed getting the bus into Chester and it wasn’t too far to drive to the zoo either. We went to the Dog and Pickle pub for tea in the nearby village and it was gorgeous!

Peace and quiet
We were looking for something more homely than a hotel , not full self catering or B&B due to the reason for our one night trip. Wanted peace and quiet in beautiful scenery with somewhere to relax outside. Total match. Fridge, microwave, toaster and toaster to cater for breakfast.

The Oakmead room was spotlessly clean, I dropped a pen under the bed and there was not a speck of dust to be seen when I crawled under to pick it up! The bed was very comfortable, the furnishings lovely especially the pretty blind and curtains. Menna gave us a jug of fresh milk when she welcomed us on arrival. The view from the big windows/doors is beautiful and it’s just a shame that the weather was wet as our breakfast coffee on the terrace would have been perfect! We were able to park right next to our room which had its own entrance via the glass doors. Although the house is next to a road there’s hardly any traffic going past, it was so quiet and peaceful-absolutely recommended.

If you are looking for a place to stay that is quite and clean, This an excellent choice as long as you have a car. Without a car it will be challenging as its on a farm. Fast Internet. Very comfortable and clean bed. It's really very nice.

Fabulous find, great place to explore North Wales
Great location. Nice and clean. Lots of space. Great wet room, only one suggestion to make and that’s another wire rack shelf in the oven. There’s only one so limits the amount of food you can cook at one time in the oven. Other than that suggestion it was a great place to stay. Highly recommended. Host was a delight and greeted us upon arrival.

Beautiful Stay, Just a Few Points Off Perfection
We had a lovely stay at Oak Mead. All the essential amenities were provided, such as kettle, toaster, mini fridge, iron etc. The view was absolutely stunning. We loved seeing the horse across the field in the morning and we even had a visit from the heron. Parking was plentiful and, even though there are two other holiday properties on site, our space felt private. The decor was tasteful. The host met us on arrival and was pleasant, but gave us our space, which we appreciated. Bed linen was crisp and clean and we noticed the duvet and pillows were feather filled, which we love. The key was located in an easy to use key safe and there was a helpful guest book with WiFi and local information. We'd certainly stay again, but we do just want to note that we'd have appreciated a more comfortable bed & sofa...both are quite springy, but we appreciate these items can be expensive to replace, especially when there are other properties to maintain. As other reviews point out, the walls are pretty thin, so we could hear that we weren't the only guests, although this didn't really bother us. Other than that, we'd recommend a deep clean. Don't get me wrong, the overall cleanliness was totally fine, but there were alot of cobwebs that could've easily been swept away with a stick duster, and the seals around the shower could do with replacing. The carpet was in good condition, but we did notice a few marks & some pesky carpet beetles, so perhaps this could do with a wet vac.

Cozy despite the snow!
Despite the snow and zero temperatures the accommodation was cosy and warm! Everything you needed was catered for. My partner is disabled and the accessibility to and throughout the property was excellent! A shower chair would have made it perfect though. The cleanliness was outstanding, Everything was clean and fresh. Would recommend for a peaceful retreat which was what we were.looking for. Look forward to revisiting later in the year and recommend to anyone liking the quiet life.

Lovely trip
Me and my partner stayed in the traditional coach house for two nights, and honestly the photos don’t do it justice. It’s such a beautiful, full of character, cozy and peaceful place to stay. The views from the windows are a lovely thing to wake up to in the morning. It had everything we needed utensils wise as it was self catering so we brought our own food. As we were having a nosey round we found a book with everything in that we needed such as the wifi and things to do in the area, we also found a cupboard with some books and board games in which was great fun! The only thing we found was that the double bed in the master bedroom is a bit noisy and squeaky which is a little annoying when you move around a lot in your sleep, but the sheets were beautifully soft so it’s swings and round a bouts. In the field opposite there were 1 to 2 horses throughout our stay and I love animals so this was a real treat to be able to see and watch them. We will definitely be staying again!

Arrived and left without meeting the owners but a lively household and dog were just the other side of the door and a wee mouse for company in the room. The smell of bleach was overwhelming on arrival and I was pleased to have my own towels as those provided were very rough. The mini fridge was noisy through the night revving up with regularity but useful to have in order to self cater evening meal and breakfast with help of mini micro and kettle. As an overnight stop it was very adequate and good value, especially as a lone traveller. I would consider using again in full knowledge of the setting - if they'd have me back!

Lovely stay
I had a wonderful two night stay, I had the groundfloor double room. It was very clean & comfortable. The room is attached to the main house with a locked door inbetween, you could hear noises but it didn’t disturb me or my sleep. I'd definitely stay again if i have another business trip that way!
