Spacious and high quality accommodation, in peaceful location with countryside feel though only a short walk to amenities in centre of Whitchurch. High quality hot tub and good garden/outside seating area. Private even though there are several adjoining properties. Two good-sized bedrooms, which suited our group of two couples, with a smaller twin bedroom also available. Well maintained throughout, a tasteful conversion.

Our third stay at the house and it did not disappoint. The hosts were helpful and informed. The house was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The local shops were a short drive away. We visited Chester zoo, Cheshire oaks shopping village and We watched a football match at local Whitchurch Alport ground next to the house. We had a lovely Sunday lunch at the white lion ash which was fantastic and go a takeaway from Reuben’s which was lovely. Thank you for another great stay.
