The Old Parlour | A uniquely designed hot tub barn with great views in the rolling countryside of Cheshire

This multi award winning, 5* romantic hideaway sits between two superb pubs (one of which is Gin Pub of The Year and has also been winner of The Best Rural Pub in Britain) and yet, despite its superb location it feels like a secret escape from the world. With copper hot tub style bath!

Exquisite interior design, roaring log burner, nickel coated roll top copper bath/hot-tub and a gorgeous hideaway mezzanine floor housing nothing but a White Company clad, uber comfy, king-size bed. Here, you can drift off to sleep listening to the crackle of the fire while looking at the stars. It’s no wonder this place has seen over 30 marriage proposals!

Step inside this retreat and you’ll find yourself in a large open plan, double height kitchen, lounge and dining area. The whole barn has a really luxurious feel – full of inspirational interior ideas, fabrics and textures – this is Instagram Heaven! There’s a wood burner in here, so you curl up by the fire enjoying Netflix on the 50” flat screen 3D TV with surround sound. There’s also an ipod docking station, board games, books and complimentary (super fast) wifi and a further ground floor double bedroom and a stunning wetroom with complimentary White Company toiletries, robes and towels.

The Old Parlour has a fully equipped open plan kitchen with full size oven & hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and coffee machine so you can whip up a lazy breakfast or prepare a romantic meal for your loved one but don’t worry, if you don’t feel like cooking several great restaurants will deliver to your door.

Just when you thought you’d seen it all, step outside onto the glass covered terrace for more decadent surprises. Here you’ll find an adorable little ‘Potting Shed’ – a fully insulated and centrally heated little annexe housing the most enormous roll top copper bath with two large French doors that you can throw open and enjoy an alfresco soak whilst listening to the birds. The courtyard garden has two large rocking chairs on the terrace, the perfect spot to enjoy a G&T whilst taking in the superb views the river and woods below. There’s also large undercover dining area perfectly located to catch the morning and evening sun and a separate under cover chill out area with sofas and romantic festoon lighting.

The Old Parlour guests are entitled to an array of special discounts from local spas, restaurants and attractions including a further 10% discount off the already heavily discounted designer goods at Cheshire Oaks Retail Park. Oh, and there’s an on-site beauty therapist if you would like some special pampering during your stay. And once you’ve headed out to explore, there are points of interest close-by to suit all types. Check out Cholmondeley Castle Gardens just next door, hop on a train from the village to explore the beautiful medieval town of Shrewsbury, meander around to stunning, foodie, local market town of Nantwich or enjoy a stroll around the Roman walls of Chester. There are also scenic walks from your door along the pretty canalside to yet another superb pub that does the best Sunday Roasts in Cheshire or take a short 5 minute drive to the Sandstone Trail - miles and miles of unbroken National Trust land with superb views and plenty of great local pubs along the way.

Set in the heart of Cheshire, making it easy to get to attractions such as Chester Zoo, Cheshire Oaks Designer Discount Retail Park and Chester Races as well as just 45 minutes from Manchester and Liverpool this little barn has it all.
