    We stayed for 2 nights for our girlie breakaway/birthday and had a fantastic time. We would highly recommend staying here. The location was stunning and quite and the cottage had everything we could need.All we would say is, the garden would benefit from some more outside comfortable seating as there is only the picnic bench table. However,we plan to go again so will bring our own. Both Rachel and Matt were very friendly and helpful and we loved the welcome basket and bottle of fizz! Thank you so much and we look forward to staying again.

    We have just got back from 4 nights, staying in The Dairy. One word can sum up our experience, SUPERB. It's as good as the pictures make it look. From start to finish everything was perfect for us. We both slept so well that we have just ordered the same pillows for ourselves. Matt, you couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. Definitely our first choice when we next return to the Chester area. p.s. whilst it's rural it is also perfectly located for getting around the area.

    We have just got back from 4 nights here. We stayed in The Dairy, and it is as stunning as the pictures make it look. You have all your amenities to make you feel right at home, it is cosy and so peaceful. You are about 10 mins from both Chester Center and Cheshire Oaks, so if you fancy a day out you can venture there. Everything about this get away was perfect, thank you Matt and Rachel, we will definitely be back soon.

    Just heading home from a stay at The Haybarn. We had a lovely stay. The property and grounds are beautiful. Added extra of the wildlife cameras which we were lucky to see the barn owl on our first night. Plenty of pubs and restaurants, shops and attractions within a ten minute drive of the property. A much needed relaxing break, no faults.

    Lower Farm Holiday Cottages provided us with a brilliant base to visit the area in and around Chester. The location is handy for visiting Chester zoo, Cheshire Oaks and the city centre. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable with the added bonus of the hot tub (which we used every day) and lots of information about local places to visit and to eat. The owners have set up webcams around the cottages so we were able to watch birds on the feeders, including woodpeckers, a roosting owl and some llamas. We will definitely book a cottage at Lower Farm again when we next visit Chester.
