About this property

Nestled on the outskirts of the historic city of Chester in Cheshire is the luxurious holiday home Solway.

If weather permits indulge in an alfresco affair upon the furniture in the expansive garden where you can then raise a toast to your getaway before taking advantage of the house’s amenities. Later, when yawning begins, wash off the day in either of the ground-floor shower rooms or the shower room on the first-floor ready for a restful sleep in either of the five beautifully-appointed bedrooms. Completing the ground floor is a king-size with en-suite shower room, a king-size and a twin with Smart TV, climb the stairs to find two further king-sizes both with Smart TVs and one with Juliet balcony and en-suite shower room.

All this and more awaits at Solway!

Chester has quite rightly been described as 'the jewel of the North-West of England'. The antique Roman walls and amphitheatre, mediaeval cathedral, Elizabethan timber-framed townhouses, Georgian terraces, Victorian restorations, and contemporary architecture are all within a relatively small area, making this city one of the most fascinating in the world. There is a lot to see and do in the city, including great shopping in and around the historic Tudor "Rows" and peaceful strolls along the Roman Walls, the banks of the River Dee, and the beautiful Grosvenor Park. Visit the stunning Chester Cathedral, watch a race at Chester Racecourse, or spend the day at the famous Chester Zoo. Liverpool, Manchester, and the North Wales coast are within easy travelling distance, as are the beautiful Welsh mountains and shoreline, the quaint market towns and villages of Cheshire, and the Wirral Peninsula, home to world-class golf courses.
