Liongate Lodge - sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

An iconic outcrop on the Bolesworth Estate, Liongate Lodge blends rolling countryside with the interior opulence you'd expect from a city-centre hotel. Expertly merging cosiness with unbridled extravagance, this roomy retreat features a super-king-size bedroom, sprawling bathroom, kitchen-diner and a sitting room, each meticulously decorated and equipped to the highest standard. Venture outside through a bifolding door, and you'll be rewarded with a quintessentially English garden featuring a hot tub and fire pit.

Ground Floor

Hallway
Stepping into the hallway instantly sets the tone. Colour-drenched in rich burgundy with accents of radiant gold, the hallway is an exciting, elegant space with stairs up to the first floor and doors to both the sitting room and kitchen.

Sitting Room
Designed with complete relaxation and beauty in mind, the sitting room boasts a Smart TV built into the mirror and a log-burner framed by a marble mantel. Enjoy the views of lush green fields, or pull the curtains closed and cosy up in your very own cocoon.

Kitchen
Light, bright, and boasting a bifolding door for seamless indoor-outdoor flow, the kitchen features a dishwasher, induction hob, oven, coffee machine and microwave, with an expansive island and beautiful countryside views.

Dining Room
Separated from the kitchen via an archway, the dining room is a comfortable and contemporary space perfect for enjoying culinary efforts.

First Floor

Bedroom
Moving from burgundy to a soothing stormy blue, the bedroom is a plush space with a super king bed, Smart TV and charming original features such as the fireplace, bay window and ornamental architrave.

Dressing Room
Behind the fireplace, you'll be delighted to discover a dressing room with built-in wardrobes, a vanity bench with stool and mirror and a cushioned window seat with views over your private garden. An overhead arm sconce makes the window seat a perfect space for reading into the small hours, before retreating to that serenely spacious bed.

Bathroom
An elegant event of marble and low-level lighting, the bathroom has a standalone bath with far-reaching views and exotic green planting, a spacious walk-in shower, a loo and a decorative fluted basin beneath a large mirror.

Outside

To the rear of the lodge, a private patio is home to a hot tub, while a gloriously green lawn has a private sitting area with a large fire bowl to keep you warm if you're out late.

The Local Area

Mere miles from the border into North Wales, Liongate Lodge sits within the Bolesworth Estate in Tattenhall, Cheshire. Famed for the iconic Bolesworth Castle, the lodge shares the same grounds as the castle, events venue and equestrian arena, but is far enough away from the action that you can simply soak up the peace and quiet.
From your doorstep, there are lots of things to see, do and enjoy. The Sandstone Trail, a popular long-distance walking path, is just a short journey away and can be accessed from The Pheasant Inn at Tattenhall. The entire trail is almost 34 miles long, but stunning segments that you should head for include Beeston Castle and Bulkeley Hill. If the more leisurely pursuits are your thing, head for The Spa at Carden Park (11 mins away by car) for an award-winning experience, or discover The Hollies Farm Shop, which has become an iconic institution of luxury homewares and artisanal produce, is just 14 miles away in Tarporley. The Roman city of Chester is worth the 25-minute trip, with fascinating Roman ruins, stunning timber-frame architecture and endless shopping outlets.
When you've come this close to the border, it would also be a sin not to venture into Oyster's native North Wales. The stunning coastal destinations of Conwy and Llandudno are only an hour away, while Snowdonia, Anglesey and the Llyn Peninsula also beckon with spellbinding scenery and beautiful beaches.
