About this property

Caton 0.7 miles. Resting on the marvellous Hermitage Estate in Halton, Lancashire is this superb, detached holiday home, Turner House.

From here, make your way to the kitchen/diner to whip up a delicious meal with the electric oven and induction hob.

Freshen up your clothes in the nearby utility which doubles as a convenient cloakroom, before settling down for the evening in the sitting rooms. The ground floor hosts a sitting room with plush sofas and a large TV, perfect for cosying up on, while upstairs, the first floor offers another stylish sitting room with a balcony and a toasty woodburning stove.

Outside, the garden and grounds of the estate leave little to be desired; jump in the hot tub for a relaxing break away from the group while the children play the outdoor chess and the chef of the group rustles up a delicious barbecue dinner to enjoy alfresco. Finish off your spa-style moment with a stint in the sauna, before taking a stroll along the picturesque river, where you may spot some of the local wildlife including the otters who hold hands so they don't drift too far downstream.
