• "We really enjoyed our stay in your beautiful stables."

  The accommodation was immaculately presented, extremely clean and cosy. It was lovely being next to nature and the wake-up call each morning was a nice surprise :) Overall, we really loved our stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a well presented, cosy retreat in the countryside.

• "We were made most welcome by the very helpful owners just next door."

  Previously a stable the building had been completely modernised into a comfortable and cosy modern cottage Although we didn’t travel far to stay at this cottage it was a unique experience, especially with the two llamas to constantly entertain us in the field close by. This made us feel we were many more miles from our home. The views were extensive and we had access to a large garden area with pond and seating as well as a patio with bbq facilities at hand. Highly recommended.

• "A lovely little property."

  Compact but has everything you require and is finished and equipped to a high standard. Great for a couple who wish to explore the surrounding area. I wouldn't recommend walking on the road outside (although I didn't actually try it). When you arrive just be aware it's easy to miss and there is a tight turn into the gateway. Llamas, ducks, geese and chickens et al right alongside the property provide plenty of entertainment. Highly recommend!

• "I booked at the last minute as I needed a base to deal with a family crisis."

  The owners where extremely friendly and very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble for them. The cottage itself wants for nothing. I found it to be very clean and comfortable. An ideal base for animal lovers as the Llamas, Geese and Chickens all like to say hello! Highly recommended.

• "The hosts were very accommodating without being overbearing."

  Spoiled a little by having a wasps nest near by resulting in an odd one or two of them gaining access. Hence a less than perfect on cleanliness, however this could happen anywhere to anybody. We do recommend this venue to anyone who loves the views which this property affords. It is well site for travel to Manchester, South Cheshire and North Staffordshire, top marks.

  It was tricky to spot the entrance to the property especially if the road was busy. The property was cosy, well equipped and immaculately clean. It was fun chatting to the llamas and fowl in the field next to the property. The owners live right next to the property and were helpful and kind.

• "I have stayed at the Chequer Stable a number of times now, and have always enjoyed my stay."

  Anthea & Peter are perfect hosts - available if there is an issue, but otherwise unobtrusive. I loved the myriad of geese, ducks and chooks that would greet you every morning when you stepped outside. Yes the roosters do start crowing quite early, but there are earplugs for those that would find this a concern. I didn't. Getting out onto the road can be a bit tricky - I found that turning off the radio and heater, opening the window and listening for traffic worked for me. My only gripe (a very small one) would be to have a light over the vanity in the bathroom as this area is a tad dark. My stay was lovely and restful, and I look forward to returning in 2023. Perhaps not in the dead of winter next time!

• "Very nice barn conversion with everything we needed although we did bring our own air fryer as no oven or grill."

  Mattress on bed is a bit tired though. Wood burner was great, really efficient bit of kit. We did have a couple of hair raising moments getting into and out of the gate. Entrance not easy to spot on a fast 50mph road. Plenty of things to do without travelling too far whether its wet or dry. Internet and 4g are poor but we found using a phone as a WiFi hot spot and propped up on the window sill gave us decent enough speed to watch Netflix etc (7-8 Mbps on O2).

  Thank you for your feedback. We would just like to inform guests that the combi microwave oven includes both a grill and a conventional oven. I wish you had asked us while you were here so that we could have helped you. Property Owner

  My partner and I booked this as a long weekend ‘to do nothing’ and it was the perfect place. 2 days we spent in the cottage and 2 days we visited places, it was perfect for both.

  It was ideal for us as a couple with a small baby and had everything you need. The kitchen was well stocked and we also liked that all the soap and toilet rolls were provided so we didn't have to buy in a load for the week. It is noisy but to be expected on a smallholding. Our baby was fascinated watching all the chickens. The owners are just next door and very friendly if you need anything, they made us feel very welcome and we're kind enough to post back on eof our muslins we left behind. We would definitely stay again if it's available next time we're visiting the area.

• "This is a delightful property and beautifully converted stable."

  Very well equipped and ideal for our short stay in the area. Great care had been taken over every detail and the accommodation was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The hosts were welcoming and friendly. The accommodation is on a small holding and we were wakened early each morning by the sound of the cockerels and ducks! It was on a small holding so to be expected! The one down side was that you could hear the road noise as it is on a busy A50 road. (But probably not as busy as usual due to pandemic restrictions). For this reason I would not be keen to stay here for more than a few days as would find it hard to relax in the small garden area with constant road noise. (On the plus side it was easy to find from the M6). We tried a couple restaurants in Sandbach and would highly recommend the Phanthong Thai on Crewe Road- just near centre roundabout. Would not however recommend the Leg of Man pub near the accommodation- food very average, served margarine with the bread and when I asked they said they don't serve butter! Enjoyed some walks and especially around the Brereton Heath, Congleton CW12 4SU

  ... A warm welcome from the owners, I think that's a good place to start, Chequer Stable is simply breathtaking, recently converted and I was lucky enough to be the first person to stay there, Every conceivable need was not only met but far exceeded, from the luxury furnishings to super fluffy towels and quality bedding. I used the Stable as a base while looking for a new property in Cheshire and while working, the super fast broadband and wifi puts most hotel chains to shame, other highlights of my stay were to name but many my neighbours, if you like geese and chickens oh and lamas you will be in heaven, the underfloor heating meant that it was always warm and toasty and the log burner was quite simply hypnotic!. This place is a true gem and my only fear in writing this glowing review is that it will now be fully booked week after week and that next time I want to escape there it won't be available!, but then again the owners deserve such success, A very big thank you and I hope to see you again soon.
