About this property
Hidden in the countryside near Sandbach in East Cheshire is Swallow Cottage. Once a barn, this quaint lodge showcases original features such as bridle hooks, exposed beams and original wooden ceilings alongside sleek and contemporary decor; it welcomes two guests in one bedroom making it the perfect setting for a romantic countryside retreat. After a day full of exploring nearby attractions, cross the threshold into your home-away-from-home where you can snuggle up with your partner on the plush sofa while the Smart TV plays your favourite film. Stay tucked in while your other half pampers you with a romantic meal in the fully-equipped kitchen, enjoy this together at the intimate dining table or head outside to your private patio for an alfresco affair. Pop open a bottle of fizz to toast your getaway then embark on a walk to the lake which lies in the grounds, here you can admire the sun sets over the countryside. Make your way back to your lodge and dive into the spacious king-size bed for some rest and rejuvenation; this room is completed by an en-suite shower room. Swallow Cottage is a wonderful backdrop for couples seeking a romantic getaway in Cheshire. Note: This property can be booked with Ref: 1110590, together sleeping up to four guests.
Sandbach is a large, historic market town near the M6 in Cheshire that dates back to Saxon times, as evidenced by the famous Saxon Crosses that still stand in the cobblestone square. Numerous pubs and restaurants can be found throughout the city, in addition to numerous shops. The market square in the heart of Sandbach hosts regular weekly markets, a monthly farmers' market, and a fantastic Christmas market that keeps everyone happy. Brereton Heath Nature Reserve is a place to visit with beautiful walking trails and interesting wood sculptures. Visit St. Mary's Church, a Grade II-listed structure with beautiful stained glass windows and a tranquil churchyard, for something a little different.

Its a beautiful part of the country and Chris's tip of getting the train from Crewe to Liverpool was very helpful. On the very slightly negative the gesture of milk in fridge would have been appreciated.

Owner on the site and friendly and helpful. Within an hour's travelling distance from various National Trust properties and not too far to travel to RHS Bridgewater. Would stay again.
