This delightful cottage is a great choice for couples looking for relaxing break in the countryside, yet within easy reach of a range of attractions.. Ground Floor:
Open plan living space.
Living area: Smart TV

Travel cot and highchair available on request. Small courtyard with patio and garden furniture. Bike store. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking.. Bess’s Cottage can be found on the owners working dairy farm in the village of Byley, in the heart of Cheshire countryside. Converted from stables in 2018 and fondly named after a former resident, it makes an excellent base to do as much or as little as you like. Just 2 miles from the ancient settlement and market town of Middlewich, known as a small town with a big character, it’s home to everything from listed and historical buildings to modern amenities. A wonderful bonus is the beautiful canal system which provides ample opportunity for towpath cycling or strolls, or even a relaxing boat trip.
Located between historic Chester and vibrant Manchester, and being just minutes from the M6 means that transport links are fantastic. The surrounding area boasts a wide range of attractions which cater to all needs from the bright lights of city centres, to historical buildings and furry animals. The National Trusts Tatton Park and Little Moreton Hall can be reached in approximately 20 minutes, and Gawsworth Hall and Beeston Castle around half an hour. Delamere Forest and Manley Mere can also be reached in around 30 minutes, and Chester Zoo, Blue Planet Aquarium and Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet are all within 30 miles. The cities of Manchester, 26 miles, Chester, 23 miles and Liverpool, 38 miles are worth visiting for a touch of retail therapy. The Peak District National Park is around 45 minutes and the North Wales coast around an hour. You really are spoilt for choice! Shop 2 miles, pub and restaurant 2½ miles.

This is the third time we have stayed in this lovely little cottage as we wait for a house sale to go through. It’s cosy and well equipped, in a beautiful country location. Celia has looked after us well. The area has some interesting little towns to visit and great transport links to go further. Manchester, Liverpool, North wales, Peak District and Yorkshire dales all within reach.

I don't know where to start, what a holiday!Me and my family had the most amazing time staying at Bess's Cottage - we had everhthing we could have needed and more!Celia, the wonderful host who made us feel incredibly welcome, let us know before our arrival that a new television was being set up, just in case it wasn't quite finished by the time of our arrival. Everything was simply perfect, and we loved watching the cows every day from the warm cottage!Our baby was accommodated for with a travel cot and high chair, I think baby had a fantastic time too - and will miss the cows!A great location for groceries, restaurants and activities too. we drove a short journey to blue planet aquarium and had a great day out. We will absolutely be back again soon, thank you for having us!

Loved it! Clean, warm with all the comforts of home.
A great base for us to visit family and friends in the north west.
One request would be a fabric sofa, or the tele moved upstairs to watch in the divine and huge bed.
Celia was so welcoming and having fresh milk and tea and coffee supplies made it even easier to settle in.
Beautiful countryside, beautiful cows. We will be back!

Exceptionally clean and well thought out cottage design. The owners are very attentive and provided everything we needed...including a tour of their milking farm. Five baby calves were born during our stay, making it very memorable. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to relax and enjoy the British countryside.
