The Little Smithy a unique property
Lovely weekend at the little Smith and would recommend to anyone thinking of going, we will definitely be can soon. What a great place and host!!

Perfect for a 2024 City Break - Hoole House
House is full of character in a brilliant location for exploring Chester and Hoole. Loved our stay and Christopher couldn't of been a better host. Highly recommended

Welcoming luxury in a Grade II listed building
Great place to stay whilst exploring Chester and surrounding areas . Cameron was great with communication and with ease of instruction to enter the property. Easily walkable into town and a supermarket 4 mins away on foot . Will definitely stay in the apartment again if visiting the area again .

The View, Countryside Retreat + Hot Tub, Cheshire
Lovely cabin/accommodation in a nice location (beautiful view from the room). The place was clean and tidy, amenities were plentiful, and access was safe and secure. Parking was very conveniently located, directly next to the accommodation. The bathroom has a nice big bath, and the hot tub was easy to use! The only cons were the sloped ceiling (just means you'll be ducking often but not too much of a bother), and the main road located close to the accommodation, which can be noisy (not a busy road but higher speed limit means when vehicles do pass by it can be a little noisy).

Town House, FREE Parking, Gardens, Summer House.
Lovely modern house just right for two. Real bonus to have parking. Easy walk into Chester so perfectly placed. Everything as described. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Mark

Stunning Garden Flat nr City Centre
Louise was incredible! So friendly, helpful, she even lent us an extra jacket of hers and an umbrella because it was raining when we got there. So very, very nice of her. The place is wonderful, with an incredible garden, comfy, and the neighborhood pleasant to walk around, near shops, yet private. Just a great stay, and such a great host. Proximity to both downtown Chester and the incredible Chester Zoo also made it a great stay.

Garden Flat - 5 Mins to the Zoo or Cheshire Oaks
Thank you so much for a beautiful airbnb. The Apartment was very spacious and well laid out. Enjoyed staying in your lovely home and look forward to returning in the future. We've just returned home to Scotland about half an hour ago. A long journey but well worth it. Was also so nice to meet and chat with your dad. Violet and Ian xx

Canalside city centre apartment with amazing views
This was a lovely stay. Great location, great views. Easy to drive to with easy on site parking. The flat is really lovely. It's warm, comfortable, has all you'll need for a stay, and plenty of extra features too. Would benefit from a little tlc in some places, but by no means a deal-breaker. Jonathan was very friendly, helpful and proactive with any questions I had. Thanks!
