The location is widely praised for its tranquillity, beautiful parkland, proximity to Tatton Park attractions, and countryside charm. Some guests noted occasional noise from planes due to the flight path, but this did not detract significantly from the overall experience.

Clean, tidy and well presented with all facilities we were expecting & a few more. We were welcomed by a small hamper containing tea, coffee etc. and milk in the fridge. The situation of the cottage, on a small farm, suited us and was enjoyed. To look out onto a field of donkeys and hear the bird song in the surrounding woodland was a delight. We will be returning.

Kitchen was well equipped and the welcome basket excellent. We loved the location and really enjoyed exploring all the attractions at Tatton Park. Walks in the deer park were also a daily treat. Staff at Tatton Park were so friendly, helpful and welcoming. We felt very âat homeâ there.
