Fantastic property lots of free parking available and within walking distance of amenities. Bus stops right outside on the main road. I had little interaction with the hosts but that’s because I didn’t need anything. When I did need to contact them the phone numbers were on a card in the room and Kevan responded and was polite. I’m considering a return visit in the future. ##### Andy Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter Feb 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Exactly what I needed. Thank you This property was perfect for my needs. It is located not too far from the centre of Chester in a quiet suburb. Saying that, you would have to either drive there or catch the bus. The property is a located at the rear of a large family home. The room has a large double bed, a sofa, a table and chairs. Off the main room is a kitchen and a bathroom. There was plenty of space to park my large van when staying here. The owners said I was free to use the gardens too, which was really nice. However, I was here during some stormy weather so did not venture into the garden. I have stayed here a couple of times now and found the owners to be incredibly welcoming. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Nice comfortable studio at the back of the main house with all you need when you're self catering. We were met by the family's youngest son, Ewan, and his friend on arrival. We couldn't have been welcomed better. Thank you again. We spent time every morning chatting with the chickens, they were so friendly. That's a first for us haha! We noticed a few places nearby for eating out and can recommend the Rising Sun in Tarporley (near the racecourse). Just be warned that it's easy to miss, even when you're following the directions... ![Glorious grounds ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DE028523F49575D9E22C03334E6725352C514FAB1687177544514.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Meet the chickens](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1B21617BCB734B1B061EB6CA7DAD6A3B85B31C521687177544053.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lesley Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rhonda May 3, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Thornleigh is well situated, short drive in Chester.

But this was sorted when the owner returned.The room was damp so had to put heating on, the only window accessible was a small one in the kitchen so we where very warm. The main road was very busy but we didn't hear any noise. use of a vehicle is advised due to location. Bus stop outside but only every half hour in day time. Probably wouldn't stay here again but may suit some people. ##### Kyla Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicola Oct 6, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lovely accommodation. Owners very friendly. Don't be put off that it's on the main road. You can't hear any noise from the road and there's a bus stop outside. Totally recommend it. ##### Nicola Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Charlotte Sep 22, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Good Value for Money The room was a lovely big size with a double and a single bed and for those that need it a huge television. The kitchen was fully equipped and there was tea coffee and milk supplied (which was nice). The fridge however did make some funny noises and was quite loud at times. The beds were comfortable and the room was nice and warm. The door had a keypad lock to get in and we were not given a key so we could not lock the door during the night (which made me a little uncomfortable as i do like to know that know one can 'get in'). Overall i would recommend this as a good reasonable room and good value for what we paid. ##### Charlotte Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris Apr 18, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely place to stay. Lovely place to stay. We spent most of our time out & about but our room was plenty big enough, comfy, good facilities etc and ideal for what we needed/wanted.

Definitely would stay again. ##### Chris Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Paula Apr 3, 2017 Liked: Staff & service #### Suite in house in nice area We enjoyed feeling like locals in the area . The owners were very friendly and helpful. We were three adults, which was a little tight but not unbearable. Everything was very clean except for dust and dirt on the floors which was probably due mostly to farm surroundings. Parking was tricky for our larger than compact car. ##### Paula Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mo Nov 28, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A private "flat" behind the house Offering self-contained accommodation and adequate parking at the rear of a house, this guest house could not have been bettered. The only downside was the busy main road outside, but we were far enough away that we could not hear the traffic. Microwave, Cooker and fridge/freezer completed the accommodation perfectly. There was even a bottle of milk in the fridge when we arrived. It is an easy bike ride from Chester town centre, but the traffic at peak times was somewhat daunting. ##### Mo Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### mark Oct 26, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location if visiting Chester Zoo Lovely self catering room, makes a pleasant change from a hotel room.
