Us with any queries immediately. It was this that made the stay so special. It was lovely to rest in their beautiful garden. The situation is excellent for exploring the area such as Liverpool a short distance by train, Formby a wonderful beach and other places. Port Sunlight is special. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Very friendly owner, around but not intrusive. Great property, well maintained and very clean and comfortable. We usually stay in Liverpool city centre and it was very pleasant to be driving out into the countryside instead.
