About the home
Tucked away in prime Cheshire countryside, yet just a mile from the charming and elegant market town of Knutsford, lies the Garden Cottage.
This beautiful two-bedroomed and two-bathroomed residence is a quintessentially English cottage with a contemporary twist. It has also been furnished and equipped with love, care and flair: from sumptuous fabrics right through to the finest Egyptian cotton sheets and the fluffiest robes. The Garden Cottage makes the perfect hideaway for a week, a weekend or simply a home-from-home for a night or two on a business trip.
On your doorstep: fields, farmland, space and grace. And, just a stroll away, the lovely old Dun Cow inn,
a 2010 finalist in the Cheshire Dining Pub of the Year.

Conditions
Notes for guests re children.
The Garden Cottage is set in a rural location surrounded by open fields - therefore children will require constant supervision and are welcome to accompany parents so long as it is understood this is at the parents own risk. Things to consider include a large hot tub suitable only for adults due to its depth, farmers fencing to fields in rear garden (where inquisitive infants might get into mischief) and there is often livestock in the farmers fields.
In terms of the accommodation we do not provide high chairs or cots and for that reason feel the property is not suitable for children under the age of 5 years.
