Escape to the heart of horse country with a stay in this beautifully converted stable, nestled within the grounds of Peel Hall—a renowned horseracing facility and farm dedicated to raising future champions. Perfect for horse enthusiasts, racing fans, and lovers of country life, this bright and spacious single-level holiday home has been thoughtfully designed to reflect its unique setting. With ample space for two guests and their dog, it offers a tranquil retreat just a few miles from the historic city of Chester. The Peel Hall estate, which includes a Grade II-listed hall built in the 1600s and acres of beautiful farmland, sits in the village of Ashton Hayes, 3 miles from Kelsall, famous for its equestrian centre, alongside four friendly pubs. Visit nearby racecourses with ease; Chester (9mls), Bangor on Dee (22mls) and Aintree (28mls). Walkers can follow the stunning Sandstone Trail, or head to nearby Delamere Forest (2.5 miles), with other local attractions including Oulton Park Circuit, Chester Zoo and Beeston Castle, all within 10 miles.

Step into this tastefully decorated, single-level stable through the patio doors, and be welcomed by the fresh, country-inspired interiors of a charming open-plan living area. This homely space invites you to prepare delicious meals using locally sourced produce in the well-equipped kitchen, then snuggle up on the comfortable sofa to unwind in front of the Smart TV as the evening settles in. Beyond the living area, you’ll find a spacious and tranquil king-size bedroom, complete with a skylight set into the high, sloping ceiling, flooding the room with natural light. Adjacent is an elegantly designed wet room featuring a convenient seating shelf in the shower, ensuring both comfort and style.

Outside, a small step leads to a private section of the shared patio, where garden furniture provides the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee while soaking in the stunning rural views. The unique setting of this property offers a true taste of life on a working farm, with horses grazing in every direction, all while allowing you to indulge in the tranquillity and serenity of the Cheshire countryside. There is also a public footpath that leads through the estate farmland and into the village of Ashton Hayes.

Richard and Julia have created the most fabulously stylish and comfortable retreat in the most peaceful of settings. Huge walk in shower, mega comfortable king size bed and functional, well fitted out and cosy living/dining area. They have really thought of everything one could need and more, providing those little extras that really do make such Read morea difference. The only thing I would say is that it's probably not the best location for someone with a reactive dog like ours as their dogs do run free on the property (I didn't realise this until I read through the Welcome Pack on arrival). Having said that we didn't have any issues and really enjoyed exploring the area by foot and by car, Walk Mill was one of our favourites finds (visited 3 times in 4 days!). Hide

A fabulous place to stay for peace, quiet and touring the Cheshire area. Being able to see the horses and foals is an absolute bonus and adds to the overall charm of the setting. It was spotlessly clean with everything we required and a very generous welcome pack. Thank you. The owners go out of their way to make sure you have everything you Read moreneed and are on hand to provide additional information but are not intrusive. All in all we cannot recommend Peel Hall Retreat highly enough. Hopefully we will be back to stay again later in the year. Hide

Excellent place to stay for a week. Everything you needed was there. Spotless and designed with care. Hosts were friendly and available if any issues- there was none. Peaceful and once the local pub is up and running you wont have to venture far if you dont want to. Will definitely recommend here. Well done!
