  • "Positives Amazing property."

    Brilliant location. Nice that you are so close to Chester and to the retail park. Very warm house. Negatives. Beds weren’t that comfortable. Creaked every time you moved. Also you can hear everything from the upstairs flat.

  • "Flat 1 is very spacious and had everything we needed."

    The property would benefit from additional sound proofing between flat 1 and flat 2 to reduce noise.

  • "I was on a week's holiday with my mum and we were in the ground floor flat."

    This is a little gem - it feels like it it sin the middle of nowhere, but 5 minutes down the road is a retail park with lots of shopping options, including Tesco, Aldi and M&S food hall, as well as non-food outlets. The property was extremely well equipped - all bed linen and towels, toilet rolls, everything needed to wash up and everything you could need in the kitchen, including all instructions for appliances. There were games in the living room cupboard and in the hallway cupboard was a vacuum cleaner, ironing board and iron and a fan (which was very welcome). Lots of leaflets about places to visit which were helpful. Chester city is an easy 15 minute drive away and Grosvenor multi-storey is a great central place to park (£7.80 for upto 4 hours and £10 for the day). The only reasons I have given it 4 stars is I didn't find the mattress in the double room particularly comfortable but I think it was an Ikea mattress and I have never got on with those and as we were in the ground floor flat, you could hear people moving about in the upstairs flat - I was very glad the upstairs flat didn't have children with them because I would imagine that could be quite noisy if they were running about.

    The Welsh welcome tray was a thoughtful touch and greatly appreciated. Everything we needed was there and more besides. I loved chatting to you and greeting your friendly dog. We will return to stay next time we are up visiting our daughter if you’re not booked up! Thanks for a perfect stay.

    A great place to take dogs. The kitchen was well equipped. The main bedroom was lovely and spacious. The beds in both bedrooms were a bit too low for me, and hard. The lounge was well used. But we found we could have done with another chair as the sofas were on the smallish side . Are family consisted of 3 adults. The Bara brith and shortbread were very welcome.

    The flat is very comfortable and well equipped. I would have found a small vegetable knife useful and maybe an extra empty wall cupboard to put my own groceries in, but l managed using one of the deep kitchen drawers without any problem.

  • "Well managed accommodation with extra finishing touches of a welcome pack for us and the dog."

    It was immaculately clean with thought put in to keep it covid secure. It was a good size apartment for a family of 4 with a small dog, in an ideal location to discover the North Welsh coast as well as Chester and surrounding areas. Having a retail park so close with cinema was ideal for bored teenagers whilst we travelled further afield. The rooms were simply furnished ideal for a puppy that chews everything. We had to keep him on lead in the small garden as it was only a simple fence. There was also access to the farmer's field if he needed more space to explore. Definitely would recommend as an ideal base to explore the area. Easy to find, right next to the airbus factory, although this did not bother us at all. We kept missing the big transporter aeroplane's daily flight which we actually wanted to see close up. 5* stay for us.
