Backwood Hall Holiday Cottages - Self-catering in Cheshire
Boathouse Lane
Parkgate, Neston, CH64 3SZ, Cheshire
England,
Reino Unido
It's peaceful here: livery to the side, paddock to the rear and farmland running down to the saltmarshes of the beautiful river Dee. These courtyard cottages, adjoining but independent, were part of the cattle farm. Now they make lovely retreats in this private estate of 300 acres: step straight onto the Wirral Way. The Hayloft is upside down with bedrooms downstairs and a light airy living room under the rafters; both have neutral colour schemes and are exceptionally comfortable.
It's a great place for children: there's a shared lawn fenced in from the yard and private patios for barbecues on long summer evenings. Wander the estate paths and you'll find a tennis court on the far side of the drive (bring your own rackets).
You can stroll to a good pub, watch birds within the RSPB Nature Reserve (don't forget binoculars), or hop in the car to visit Roman Chester. Wales is only half an hour in the car for Caernarfon Castle.

Local points of interest from Sandra Harris:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Sandra Harris:
- Explore historical Parkgate, a short stroll from the farm. Once a thriving sea port where Lord Nelson had meetings with Lady Hamilton prior to sailing to Ireland.A jumble of Georgian buildings now housing many excellent pubs and restaurants.
- The salt marsh bordering the farm is now an RSPB nature reserve, attracting twitchers from far and wide. So bring your binoculars and cameras! Or get on the water at West Kirby's Marine Lake. Great for dinghy or wind surfer. Courses available.
- For the more active, the Wirral Way can be reached directly from the farm. You can walk or cycle along it or ride on the adjoining bridleway for miles in either direction. So bring your bicycle or even your horse. Full livery is available on site.
- Fancy a game of tennis on our court, overlooking the Dee Estuary. Or golf? With over 10 courses, the Wirral is a mecca for golfing. Heswall golf course adjoins the farm and nearby is Royal Liverpool at Hoylake, venue for the 2014 Open Championship.
- Within easy driving distance are, Ness Botanical Gardens, Liverpool's magnificent waterfront (a world heritage site), the historic walled city of Chester and Snowdonia National Park. Or for shopaholics, Cheshire Oaks and Liverpool One.
- Simply chill out in the peaceful, cosy luxury of the Hayloft or the Bullpen.
