Chester has been described as 'the jewel of the North-West'. Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of the city is the is evidence of every period of history - from the old walls and amphitheatre of Roman times, through medieval churches, Elizabethan townhouses and Georgian terraces, to Victorian restorations and 21st century architecture. The city has much to offer including shopping in and around the Tudor 'Rows' and walks along the Walls, beside the River Dee and through Grosvenor Park. Explore Chester's cathedral, visit Chester Racecourse or spend a day at Chester Zoo. Further afield, the Welsh mountains and coastline, the quaint towns and villages of Cheshire and the Wirral Peninsula with its golf courses, are all within distance, whilst frequent rail services make Liverpool, Manchester and the North Wales coast readily accessible.

Lovely reflections of the stained glass windows seeping through on a sunny day. Good location for the walls, city centre, river and racecourse etc

The apartment itself was stunning and very comfortable, felt very "at home" from the moment you walk in the door. The property owners leave a lot of useful information. Only 2 points that might be slightly negative, instructions for key collection confused us as the keys were tucked around corner of front entrance, not at side of the door and the tap for the bath was a bit wobbly and water drained from bath while in use so no luxurious long soak in that magnificent bath, having said that would highly recommend, will definitely try to book again. Property owners are very helpful and very approachable
