Nice short break in the this lovely well equipped cottage. Sue, the owner was very friendly and helpful. Its location was good for us as we had booked a day at Haydock Races. The Martin Mere Wildlife Centre was only 10 minutes away and is a fabulous place to visit.

Phil and Sue were extremely friendly and great hosts. The location of the property is in the middle of the countryside and close to the canal. If you want to get away from it all then this is the place to come.

Spent 2 nights in The Shippon cottage. It was warm and cosy and had everything we could have possibly needed. There was a little carton of milk provided in the fridge which was great after a long journey we could have a cup of tea straight away! There was a more relaxed check out time allowed to us by the owners too which was welcomed unlike other places where you have to be out at the exact stroke of 10am.

The cottage was the perfect size for 2 people and had all the facilities needed to easily cook and live day-to-day for a week-long stay. The location was very scenic and peaceful - the walk by the canal to the Farmer's Arms was a particular highlight. The house was really well resourced and made it easy to settle in of an evening.

We stayed 2 nights to visit family and friends.Beautifully presented, great little cottage with everything you need. Owners very friendly, sharing information on the property and area. Very welcoming to children. Our 6 and 4 yr olds loved it. Petting the sheep and pony and seeing the goose. Plenty of space for the kids to have a run around after a long car journey.
