Dragon's Den, Chester

Just like to say this place as a little gem for the price. Great communication with the owners, they were away for the weekend when we arrived but the place was set up perfectly. Lovely and warm when we got there and the place was spotless. Comfortable bed in the main bedroom and our daughter set the smaller single room up within minutes of us arriving. Lounge area was light and bright with the vaulted ceiling. Kitchen area had all you need but because it's in the attic of the house head space can be a challenge especially washing up ( my excuse to get out of doing it :)). Location is within a 10 minute drive into Chester or a 30 minute walk..... All in all we would 100% recommend Dragons Den to anyone wanting a relaxing stay. Definitely will be returning :)

Excellent accommodation central for all your needs to visit & dine out. Owner very friendly & welcoming highly recommend

We choose self-catering accommodation for – location, comfort and convenience. If a place adds style and character that's a nice bonus. The Dragon's Den ticked all the boxes handsomely! It's a very clever (and totally self-contained) loft conversion above the owner Mike's bungalow. The accommodation is spacious, light, airy, and very thoughtfully furnished and equipped. The large living area is welcoming and comfortable, with two big leather sofas plus matching armchair, TV, loads of books, CDs, a classy chess set plus other games, and three drawers full of tourist information. The kitchen is dinky but has everything you need for a week. There's a thoughtful supply of kitchen essentials for people like me who manage to forget the teabags. The fridge was stocked with milk and butter, and there was a crusty loaf on the workbench. Much more useful than the usual little packets of biscuits! The bathroom is a good size, with a bath and separate shower cubicle, and lots of fluffy towels, and some sachets of shampoo in case you have forgotten that as well as the teabags. The two bedrooms have comfy beds and there's plenty of storage space. The décor is cool, clean, stylish, with some very attractive modern oak furniture. It's also quirky, with sloping ceilings (and floor), beams, and a lot of little dragons hiding in the corners. It's near a busy road, but well set back. There's a good bus service from just round the corner into Chester, but Mike's information sheet includes instructions for a very pleasant walking route, along quiet, leafy avenues and lanes. We hadn't visited Chester for twenty five years, it hasn't changed much, still a lovely city. But to see it at its best, avoid Saturday afternoon / evening – unless you appreciate aspiring Footballers' Wives unable to stand up reliably on their heels, let alone walk, and young men with a taste for extreme hairstyling and noisy cars. The rest of the week it's a very civilised place to wander around and soak up the atmosphere! Thanks to Mike for making us feel welcome and at home. We hope to return.

Zweckmäßige Wohnung mit Gartenecke, Parkplatz und praktischer Inneneinrichtung, sauber und ordentlich, Stadtzentrum zu Fuß in 20 Minuten zu erreichen, Supermarkt fußläufig erreichbar, Vermieter freundlich und hilfsbereit. Viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten.

We used this property as a base from which to explore Chester and surrounding area. Excellent public transport links into town but only a pleasant 20 minute walk into town. The apartment was clean, well presented and well equipped. Lot's of useful information about the local area and tourist attractions was available. As well as board games, CD's, books and jigsaws. The owners had very kindly supplied some crusty bread, butter and milk for our arrival - very thoughtful. There is a supermarket quite close to the property.

We enjoyed being in a self contained flat with the ease to come and go as we pleased.

A lovely property, had everything you could need for a comfortable stay, with lots of thoughtful extras. A short walk into Chester with regular buses from just outside the house. The owners were lovely and we will definitely go back!

The accommodation was really light and airy, and also larger than expected. The walk into Chester was lovely.

A very comfortable cottage conveniently situated for buses and within walking distance of the city. The owners, who live on site, were friendly and helpful.

The place was clean and comfortable. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. The information on local amenities was very helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at Dragon's Den. The property was perfect for our family, it is much bigger than it looks on the pictures. The owners were very helpful and friendly. We highly recommend this place.

A perfect location, only a 20minute walk into Chester City Centre. A stunning property, couldn't fault it at all.

DRagon's Den was perfect for the 2 of us, although it would sleep 3. It was also in an ideal location too. We parked our car in the private driveway and used the excellent bus service for the whole week to get into Chester, which is also in walking distance. We also used the buses to get to Liverpool, Nantwich and Cheshire Oaks. We looked forward to returning to 'our' apartment each evening as it was so cosy and comfortable. We are already thinking about returning in the Spring.

We had a very pleasant stay at Dragons Den, there is everything you need for a comfortable stay. We stayed for 5 nights and went into chester every night. The bus stop is just around the corner, we caught the number 16 (every 12 mins) which is a stagecoach bus and is only £3 for a day saver or £10 for a weekly saver or you can walk which takes 25 mins. There are some great pubs in Chester and if you like Italian food try the La Fattoria, the pasta is to die for. You can walk the old city walls which goes all the way round the city, quite unique and interesting. Going to Chester we would recommend Dragons Den.

The accommodation was perfect for us. We felt at home. It was very comfortable and exactly what we needed. Close to shops and walking distance to the city centre. We had a lovely stay and look forward to when we might be able to visit again.

It was a well equipped, clean apartment and good for purpose. We enjoyed our stay very much and the owner was very helpful.

Nous avons, mon épouse, notre fils de dix ans et moi passé une semaine dans cet appartement, situé au premier étage de la maison des propriétaires, début août 2015. La location est très agréable, très propre, à la cuisine fournie en ustensiles, au salon confortable et la literie exellente. Les propriétaires sont à la fois discrets et disponibles et ont eu la prévenance de nous fournir de quoi préparer le premier petit-déjeuner. Un espace dans leur jardin est réservé aux locataires. La location est située à 3km du centre de la magnifique ville de Chester. Voilà une très bonne adresse où nous reviendrons.

Dragon's Den is well equipped with good quality equipment. We spent a very enjoyable 10 days here. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay.

Me and my boyfriend stayed here for a week long break in November last year and it was lovely! Well worth the money! It's close to the local shops, one bus ride to the train station as well with the bus stop right outside almost. The house itself is very warm and cosy, a small kitchen but it comes with everything you need. The owners were very helpful, they left us a guide on things to do and local restaurants and they had even purchased us a few bits of food like bread and milk for our arrival which I think was a lovely thought. We really enjoyed ourselves here and would recommend this to anyone thinking of staying in Chester.

We found the Dragon's Den a great base to explore Chester and the surrounding area. We could easily walk into Chester as it only took 20 mins. The place was exactly as we expected and it suited us well. Very clean and nicely decorated, we were made to feel very welcome by the owners and the welcome pack was a nice touch.

A modern clean apartment with all amenities not far from the City Centre. Had a friendly helpful owner, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Very comfortable stay in this fantastic apartment, which has everything we needed. It was deceptively spacious, warm, clean and comfortable. The kitchen is very small but perfectly formed, kitted out with everything you might need (I learned how to use a halogen oven). The lounge, dinning area, bedroom and bathroom were very spacious. The owners were on hand for advice if needed. We will return.

A very comfortable nicely furnished apartment ideal for 2 people. It was useful to have a garage where we could keep our bikes overnight.

Dragons' Den was very nice and convenient for Chester. Had everything we needed and we would stay again. The owner was very helpful and couldn't do enough for us.

The owner was very friendly and helpful and the accommodation was very comfortable. Chester city centre is fairly close, about 15 to 20 minutes walk or an easy drive, although it is as easy to get the bus (bus stop nearby). Chester is a great place to visit and there is lots to see in the surrounding area.

We loved Dragon's Den and would recommend it to anyone. It was very comfortable and quiet and the condition of all of the furnishings and appliances was excellent. Our hosts were wonderful as well and were available if we needed them. Dragon's Den is well located in Chester - in a nice neighbourhood and a good walk to the down town area.

The Dragon's Den apartment was very tastefully decorated and was well equipped with everything we needed. The apartment is ideally located for the city centre, being only a 20-25 minute walk into town, or just a short bus ride away.

We enjoyed our stay very much and it was a surprise to find a "Den" so spacious.

Just one word - fantastic! Perfect location and the owner was extremely helpful and thoughtful.

Fantastic location and convenience to local shops and tourist sites.

A lovely property and would recommend it. A 20 minute walk into Chester town or a bus stop a minute from the property.

The accommodation was light and airy. The gardens were beautiful and the owners were so welcoming and hospitable, nothing was too much trouble. I would stay here again as it is a perfect distance to Chester with both comfortable and pleasant surroundings. Also there is parking which is handy considering its very close to the city centre.

The apartment is very comfortable, very nice, well equipped, very clean and well heated. An ideal den! The reception is very friendly and the owners are always reachable and ready to assist you if needed. We had a wonderful holiday at Dragon's Den.
