About this house rental
This canal side house is located in the heart of Chester. The house is just a stones throw away from Chester train station, and local good-food pubs, restaurants and a Waitrose across the canal. It is also only a few minutes walk into the centre of Chester via the canal or road.
The property itself sleeps up to 6 people: it has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a comfortable sofa bed.
As you enter the house from City Road, you are welcomed into a lovely hallway, leading into a spacious kitchen and dining area.
Whilst there are many incredible restaurants in Chester, the modern kitchen is equipped with everything you should need to cook a meal in with family, friends or colleagues, including of course, plenty of wine and prosecco glasses!
This floor also boasts a living-room with a large smart TV for your use. Both rooms have a wonderful view of the canal. The living room even opens on to a balcony over looking the canal leading into town.
Downstairs are two super-king bedrooms (these beds can be split into singles upon request) One bedroom has a modern en-suite, and there is also a modern family bathroom on this floor.
Both bedrooms boast comfortable beds, modern wardrobes, chest of drawers and elegant finishing touches. Fresh white linen and clean towels will also be provided for you.
The master bedroom opens onto a canal side terrace with outdoor seating area.
Please note that there is no real barrier onto the water so take care when using the outside seating area. Children must be supervised at all times.
The character property has been recently refurbished, boasting modern bathrooms and kitchen, new carpets and a freshly painted interior.
There is parking for one car at the property in a shared car park. There is free parking on City Road in the evenings, and there are other car parks located near by (the closest being at the train station or the Town Crier Pub pay and display) and if you are arriving by train, the house is just a minutes walk from the station!
With river bank walks, shopping, sight-seeing, good food and nightlife within a short walk, you will be kept busy, but will have a relaxing home to come back to after a long day! You will of course also be a short drive from Chester Zoo and the beautiful Cheshire countryside.
We are here to help and would be happy to give recommendations for restaurants, bars, good country pubs, Cheshire walks and must see sights! The welcome book located in the house will provide you with many recommendations on your arrival, or please request beforehand.
Check-in is anytime after 3pm and checkout is 10am. Early check-in and late check-out can be requested.
We love to host our guests and will do whatever we can to make sure that your stay is as enjoyable as possible. We pride ourselves on our cleanliness and quality standards for our serviced homes.

While the location to access the city was perfect, the neighborhood and general condition of the property left quite a lot to be desired. Mold in the bathrooms ,dust everywhere,, carpets and furniture were dirty.

We truly enjoyed our time at the canal house. It was wonderful to sit out on deck the to watch canal boats go by, and laughing at the antics of the ducks and moorhen.
The place was very neat and very comfortable, with all amenities necessary. The bedrooms were exactly the right size and both had easy access to the washroom!
We enjoyed our visit to Liverpool, which was just the right distance from the house. And Chester itself is a very lovely and diverse area!

A lovely stay - despite the persistent rain!
A great location on the canal with parking and close to the rail station, pubs, supermakets and of course the city.
The kitchen was good but the pans need replacing and the bathrooms were tired, tho functional, with plenty of hot water.
The main rooms were comfortable (except one sofa) and warm but the corridors were cold and the small bedroom a bit chilly - but it was very cold and wet that week.

Excellent location 5 minutes from the railway station or with on site parking.10 minutes from city centre and an embarrassment of excellent restaurants and pubs on the doorstep.Well equipped kitchen but other than that a tired property in need of refurbishment.Main settee has springs almost poking through the material,poor quality towels and duvets.Signs of mould on bathroom tiles.The internet service is weak and intermittent.A property advertised as suitable for 4 persons attracted an avaricious £60 supplement for “additional guests”Entry from the car parking is up a flight of steps which some people may find it difficult to negotiate.
4.4
Certainly would not describe as beautiful, it may have been once. Bed settee you could not sit on as springs completely gone, balcony furniture, very old and not sure safe to sit on. Bed mattress in both rooms, uncomfortable and clearly old..towels old, well used and although clean old stains on them.

Sitting on the terrace and reading in the sun was a bonus.
Would recommend and definitely stay here agsin

This is one of the best stays we have enjoyed in Britain. The home was clean and comfortable, and being right on the canal made this a truly memorable experience. The home managers were friendly and efficient- a great combination and Chester is beautiful and handy to other places nearby.

Canal House Chester
The property, which is located along a canal, was lovely and very livable. It is also in an excellent location within easy reach to nearby bars, restaurants, rail station and city centre.

We really enjoyed our stay at Canal House, the accommodation was lovely with two good sized double bedrooms with comfortable beds, large living room and good kitchen. However both bathrooms suffer with damp having no means of ventilation and the walls were slightly mouldy in the large bathroom (there were windows but they were locked). It really only needed a slight touch up and to get the place up to standard. The outside area, canal frontage, could also do with a tidy up.

This property is in a prime location, and is of a good specification and cleanliness. Lovely!
Caveat for families: The only thing I would say is that whilst it's billed as being suitable for families, and that it does have a parking space, the logistics of getting children and babies and the many MANY bags and cases and belongings they need to bring even on a short 3 day trip in and out of the car (more specially a roof box) and into the house grew tiresome after the 3 days we were there. Husband had to drop us off and pick us up at the front door every time we wanted go go anywhere. On the morning of leaving he had to try and fill up the roof box with a set of step ladders, whilst parked outside the front door(which is no parking in the day time) with a parking attendant stood there watching him in a rain/hail storm. The alternative was to make easily 15 trips locking and then repening the car and roof box and steps, carrying everything up and down a large flight of stairs to the car park. The other thing I would say for families is that if your kids are accustomed to sleeping in the dark as most are now, make sure you bring plenty of good blackout blinds. All the internal doors are frosted glass, and all the windows have vertical blinds and thin curtains only (and they're all larger sized windows). We had 2 large blackout blinds with us but these were no where near enough so had towels, sheets, duvets, cushions (of which there were plenty provided) and throws here there and everywhere to try and dim the light since it goes dark later now and light very early am.
But I will end on the positive that its a lovely house, very convenient for the city and all local attractions, the designated free parking space is good (if a little tight for our estate, with 2 other cars in the car park) and the provision of kitchen items and everything else was great. Very clean and tidy and obviously well looked after. The views out the windows lovely too and great if you get nice weather and can sit outside. Just keep the young kids at home!
