The Dairy Reviews

Jeffery
We found the Dairy to be a very comfortable place to stay and ideally positioned for visiting two great cities namely, Liverpool and Chester. Lower Farm holiday cottages are set in a tranquil area of Cheshire in a wonderful countryside setting. The grounds are delightful and no doubt if you have young children they would find the story book theme the owners have created to be quite magical and in addition its in support of the Alder Hey childrens hospital. All in all, a great stay and we would highly recommend it. Thanks Carol & Jeff
Deborah
We had a wonderful stay at the Dairy, so close to lots of places we wanted to visit. The facilities were excellent, hot tub a lovely relaxing end to busy days, cycled, walked & had a superb holiday . Will definitely re visit the Dairy.
My sister and I stayed at the Dairy for three days, we had a lovely time we really enjoyed it. The accommodation was amazing very clean and beautifully designed and comfortable. The owners were very friendly and welcoming we will definitely go again in the future. Sue & Lannie
Matthew
Loved the cottage and facilities but I think as you can onky check in at 4pm maybe either letting people check in abit earlier or check out slightly later would better.

We had such an amazing stay ! the property is just excellent spotless and unique We loved the owl Cam and the hot tub Credit to the owners ! Very peaceful although close enough to visit some lovely local area sights Just what we needed
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.

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

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
