The Details
Step back in time at The Carriage House, an enchanting 1840s retreat nestled in the peaceful Cheshire countryside on the edge of the picture-perfect village of Bunbury. With its ivy-clad stone walls, sash windows and charming period features, this historic home offers a taste of old-world elegance wrapped in contemporary comfort. Every corner exudes character, from the inviting living rooms to the tranquil garden where the gentle hum of nature provides the soundtrack to your stay.
Inside, the cottage beautifully balances traditional charm with modern-day luxury. Two welcoming lounges offer spaces to unwind - one centred around a cosy fireplace, perfect for evening chats or quiet reading, and the other combining a stylish dining area where you can share long, laughter-filled meals. The open-plan kitchen is thoughtfully equipped for everything from hearty breakfasts to indulgent dinners, and there’s even a handy boot room for country walks with your four-legged friends.
Each of the five bedrooms has been individually designed to reflect the home’s heritage while ensuring restful nights in sheer comfort. Expect Egyptian cotton sheets, plush mattresses and soft lighting that sets the mood for relaxation. The main bathroom and additional downstairs toilet make life easy for families and groups, while the thoughtful details throughout create a sense of understated sophistication.
Outside, manicured lawns and pretty borders invite lazy afternoons spent with a book or an alfresco glass of wine. Whether it’s early morning birdsong or golden sunsets over the rolling fields, The Carriage House offers an idyllic retreat for those seeking a slower pace of life steeped in charm and tranquillity.
Step beyond the gates and discover Bunbury’s welcoming pubs, tearooms and village stores - all a short stroll away. The scenic Sandstone Trail winds right past the village, offering miles of stunning countryside walks, while nearby Chester, with its Roman walls, historic streets and vibrant culture, makes for a wonderful day trip. Back home, light the fire, pour a drink and settle into the warmth and elegance of this timeless country escape.
