Take your precious pooches with you to this charming, family-friendly cottage, complete with characterful features and a fully enclosed garden for tykes to roam. Ideal for exploring Cheshire and its borders, this home-from-home makes a comfortable base for three guests to discover the surrounding countryside with their canine companions.

Kick off boots and hang-up coats as you enter into this spacious yet cosy living room. After a busy day of blustery scenic ramblings, find your seat on either the deep sofa or stylish reading chair and warm your toes and paws before the toasty electric wood burner. When you're not treating yourselves to dinner at one of the nearby eateries, rustle up tasty treats in the modern, fully equipped kitchen while your lucky lurchers tuck into the basket of goodies provided for by the owners. Immediately step out onto the patio from the kitchen, where hounds and humans can bask in the sunshine before hitting the hay in one of the two snuggly bedrooms. Choose from the single bedroom with gorgeous garden views or the double bedroom with an original stone chimney breast. In the morning, plate up pastries, brew up a fresh pot of tea, and enjoy out on the long stretch of lawn.

You will be well served by walking routes and cycleways when you stay at this unique property. Take the pooches with you for a trip along the famous Sandstone Trail, just 0.5 miles away, or through the enchanting Delamere Forest, both within 3.5 miles. Kids and big kids will enjoy visiting the local attractions of Go Ape Delamere, Crocky Trail and Oulton Park Circuit, all within 10 miles, while the keen shoppers can dive into the bargains at Cheshire Oaks designer outlet (12 miles). Refuel with a visit to one of three dog-friendly pubs in the village.

Small but very nicely presented cottage on the outskirts of Kelsal .We enjoyed our stay with our two dogs, the garden was more than adequate for them and lots of lovely walks nearby. Kitchen had everything we needed and the wine was very welcome after a long drive from Devon!

This is a fantastic place to stay. Elizabeth and Mike have thought of everything, and the cottage really feels more like a home than a rental property. Would totally recommend this accommodation.

The location was ideal. Easy to walk to the edge of the Delamere forest on tracks and minor roads.

The quaint cottage was very clean with all the equipment we needed for our Christmas stay. It was also decorated with Christmas trees and ornaments. The cottage is situated in a quiet area on the edge of the village within easy walking distance of the amenities, pubs and forest walks. We visited the Farmer's Arms and the Royal Oak pubs, both very dRead moreog friendly, a must for us. The Morris Dancer was very popular but a bit too busy for us. We had a very nice Christmas break at the cottage. Hide

We stayed two nights in October 2024 while our motorhome was having air suspension fitted. We enjoyed our stay especially the Welcome pack. Poppy our Westie settled in well and we took her with us to the dog friendly pub The Morris Dancer.

Very happy with our stay at dingle cottage. It is a lovely property with a nice big garden which was great for the dogs. The property was very clean and tidy and the owners even left a bottle of wine and some biscuits as a welcome gift which was a really nice touch. The local pubs were all dog friendly which was great. I would recommend this properRead morety to anyone who wanted a little break away from busy home life. Hide

Charming cottage as described with a well equipped kitchen and fresh new bathroom and towels. In a great location to walk into Kelsall and to travel to nearby attractions. Nice to sit in the garden after the days outings. Recommended to a family of three.
