Perfect for romantic getaways with your four-pawed third wheel or for quiet family trips, this pretty home sits in the beautiful village of Audlem. A cosy bolthole in which to enjoy quality time together relaxing, the enclosed garden means your pups can chase their tails safely after days filled with stick fetching besides the Shropshire Union Canal.

 

Tranquil tones, cosy furnishings and the sliding patio doors create a charming ambience in the kitchen/lounge/diner at this inviting single-storey home. The layout means you can keep an eye on your waggy-tailed sidekicks from the comfort of the sofa where you can switch off and unwind in front of the Smart TV before dinner. Keep your chef company and lay the table ready for a date night or take your plates outside and enjoy some more time in the fresh air whilst your pups play ball. Stroke your four-pawed pal as they curl up before heading to bed yourself in either the double or single which share the family bathroom. Rise and shine and soak in the tub to get your day off to a relaxing start before taking the pups for a stretch of their legs in the paddock.

Enjoy a bite to eat on your arrival or work up an appetite and tuck into treats in Audlem where eateries await.

Great location and peaceful setting, the dog paddock is a great addition. Windows overlooking the paddock would have been nice as well. Highly recommended

This is a super clean, well equipped small cottage in a lovely quiet farming area of East Cheshire. The owners are quiet and theres lots of privacy. Kitchen has everything you need, smart TV, lovely views out the back, and super handy bridleway just over the road. Audlem is just the most pleasant quiet village and the area has so much to see and doRead more. We absolutely loved our week here. There is a busy farm a small field away at the back so you do hear quite loud farming noises (machinery, cows) and it can smell a bit rural so if youre sensitive to that sort of thing perhaps not for you, we quite enjoyed watching the field being tilled :) The resident dogs are lab-sized and quite bouncy/barley when you come across them (not frequent) so if you or your dog is nervous you might consider that (although your area is secure) We visited Hack Green Nuclear Bunker museum, Cotebrooke Shire Horse Farm, a few gardens and others - so much to see and so many lovely walks. Dog heaven :) Hide

Murphy, my springer spaniel and I had a lovely break at Willow Cottage over the New Year. Cottage was comfortable and a good size. I loved the location. So peaceful but close enough to the village if you wanted. Some great walks nearby, I didn't use my car the whole time I was there! I would definitely recommend it.

This is a nice, comfortable, cosy and well equipped cottage. The enclosed garden was really useful for our dog as he was able to have a good off-lead run around. Excellent internet connection. It is a few minutes fromm the centre of Audlem, but there is a pleasont, traffic free walk to get there.

Great cottage for a couple, the single bedroom served well for the suitcase etc. Very dog safe, the paddock outside was well used by our Springer. Easy walk into the village, which is well served with pubs, cafe, chip shop, Co-op and a great Tapas restaurant.

My husband (registered disabled) managed really well in the cottage. There were great welcome packs for ourselves and the dog - thank you. Everything was really clean and cosy. There was a great outside space for the dog (best I've ever seen). We went to the Overwater Marina several times where there was a boat which wheelchairs could go on.
