About The Dairy

Set amongst three other delightful terraced dwellings, The Dairy can be found in the rural setting of Cheshire, perfect for a romantic retreat with your loved one. Step inside to find a glorious open-plan living space, with high ceilings and oak beams, this cottage holds plenty of charm and character.

Within the open-plan space there is a contemporary-styled kitchen, home to a selection of usual amenities, a dining area where you can enjoy a romantic meal and a plush sitting area where you can unwind for a relaxing evening in with the Smart TV providing entertainment. Catch up on your sleep in the super-king-size bedroom, also benefiting from its own TV and en-suite shower room, it makes a perfect place to rest in between adventures.

Find your own private hot tub to the front of the property, where you can spend some time stargazing, or take a seat in the communal lawned garden with a chilled beverage in hand where you can observe the far-reaching country lands. Take your time to meander through the surroundings and see if you can spot some special visitors, the owner of The Dairy has published a Children’s bedtime storybook called Fudge’s Evening Adventure, the idea from this story came after the Owners Daughter was treated at Alder Hey Childrens Hospital.

The tale follows Fudge, a miniature dachshund, as she embarks on a quest to find a cozy place to rest her head for the night. Along the way, she encounters various animal friends on and around the family farm.

A beautiful wooden sculpture trail to accompany the story can be enjoyed by guests, all proceeds from the book will go to Alder Hey Children's Charity, to thank them for their wonderful service, the book is able to be purchased directly from the owner, and so far over £13000 has been raised for this amazing charity. To add to the wonder there is also a carved animal bug hunt, and guests can watch the wildlife in comfort as wildlife cameras have been set up and can be viewed live in the property.

We did not us the hot tub too much cos we had other activities but next time we will

Daniel
Lovely cottage and great location. Thanks!
Quite simply fabulous! Beautifully presented with quality decor and furnishings. Plenty of space, quiet. Hot tub was a bonus, just a shame the weather wasn't conducive to using it. The bottle of prosecco was a particularly nice touch. If I could give 11 out of 10 I would.
Excellent stay ,highly recommended. Due too planning permission lounge can be a bit dim so would recommend a couple of table lamps could be a help
We had a wonderful time at the dairy, it is a beautiful property in a lovely rural area but also close by to major attractions such as Chester zoo. The property had everything you needed and was really well equipped! We loved the hot tub and relaxing in it in the evenings after a busy day. The large communal grass area was great for our 2 year old to run around on. Great place to stay and would stay again in the future.
Jonathan
Thank you for a great stay in The Dairy. Perfect in every way. Will definitely be back later in the year.
Shirley
Excellent accommodation, spotlessly clean and well maintained. The accommodation is peaceful and secluded, yet in close proximity of tourist attractions, cities and coastal areas Particularly enjoyed watching the owl cam, would love to know how many eggs hatched and fledged.
Had a lovely stay at the dairy cottage spotless comfy everything you need lots ... Had a lovely stay at the dairy cottage spotless comfy everything you need lots close by hot tub was a lovely bonus enjoyed watching the live tv feed especially the barn owls would highly recommend
Joanne
Immaculate cottage lovely surroundings Good area for things to do Little extras left for stay Warm too warm at times underfloor heating seemed set could not alter or find booklet so opened windows but hate wasting energy No sharp knives to cut food ? Enjoyed the owl, bird, alpaca cams x
Absolutely amazing little getaway, so tranquil and peaceful! Highly recommend to all age groups.
Very clean & accommodating
Stunning accommodation, had everything we needed and more to make it a cosy stay. Was very peaceful which was exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful grounds also. Great location, would definitely stay again.
Teresa
The cottage was amazing, very homely would definitely be coming back again.
Andrew
Everything surpassed our expectations.
The photos don't do the property justice. Just outside Chester but nicely in the country, with owl cam so you can watch the owl babies. It was beautifully decorated and spotless. Complimentary milk, tea coffee and prosecco for our arrival Robes & slippers provided to use tofrom hot tub with complimentary bathshower goodies.
We had the most wonderful stay, will definitely will be returning Thankyou x
Robert
We had a lovely stay at the dairy great location. Loved the garden area our grandchildren would have loved it. Only silly niggle would have loved to use a teapot but that's personel preferable. Hopefully we will be back.
Christiana

Maxine
Lovely cottage, very clean and comfortable, great location, definitely will go again. Perfect stay, loved the hot tub
Brilliant conversion. Exceptionally comfortable and equipped. Great location, nice and quiet to enjoy a few days away with a walm hot tub.
Everything was excellent. The property was exceptionally clean. It was also comfortable and had everything that we needed. The hottub was fantastic. We used it everyday. The Dairy was ideally situated, meaning that it's in the country so quite peaceful, but with shops, etc. only a short drive away. The property is a credit to it's owner for sure. Will be considering going back.
Lauren
Incredible! The property owners couldnt provide you with any more of they tried! We had a great games night with the games in the lodge, perfect location so close to everything ! Well worth the money would definitely go back !
Relaxing location with a very well equipped cottage very clean and well presented. Hot tub a nice extra
Very nice house, well looked after, decorated and clean. We loved it
Lauren
The Dairy is an absolutely amazing property with loads of amazing facilities and a location to be envious of. The property itself is so cosy, and the location is great for any Tourist attractions like the Zoo and Chester itself. Rachel and Matt were both very friendly and have both spoken to ourselves to ensure we had the best experience whilst at The Dairy. The hot tub is a great addition, and as the cottages are in the Countryside, you really can just relax and immerse yourself in the stars above, with little noise around. We also both loved Channel 800 and enjoyed watching the Alpacas and Owl visiting!

Out of all of the Go Ape! courses the one in Cheshire is the most spread out and it takes staff ten minutes to patrol the site on bike - which gives a good indication of the size of this place.  If you're looking for an adventurous and memorable day out then Go Ape is highly recommended.  Trek through the treetops, swing between the trees and enjoy zip wire rides all as part of your experience.  This attraction opens every day from the end of March to end October and is open on weekends in November.  Go Ape Cheshire is closed every Tuesday except school holidays.
