Coddington Mill Lakehouse

Nestled away in the Cheshire countryside, Coddington Mill Lakehouse is ideally located for visiting this magnificent part of the world. Sitting on the decking with a coffee or a glass of bubbly, you’ll feel like you’re a million miles away from it all, while Chester City is just a few miles away.

Chester is a delightful city that is great for a weekend break and very popular with those who love history. It boasts the most complete city walls, oldest racecourse and largest Roman Amphitheatre in Britain, along with a 1000-year-old Cathedral that is home to Europe’s finest example of mediaeval carvings. And it’s a great place for shopping too, so bring your credit card!

Other local attractions include Chester Zoo, Stretton Mill (one of the Britain’ best preserved demonstration water powered corn mills), and the world’s biggest ice cream shop.

If you don’t fancy creating your own itinerary, you’re in luck. The hosts have put a suggested weekend schedule on the website.

For those who want to get out in the fresh air, there are plenty of hiking and cycling routes to choose from. These suit all levels of fitness, and each one commands spectacular views.

Back at the Lakehouse, you can just relax and enjoy the serenity of the lake views. Or, if you prefer, you can feed the ducks and swans to make some feathered friends. If you fancy a romantic dinner, how about cooking it in the wood-fired outdoor oven? And perhaps enjoy a long, luxurious soak in the deep bath first.

Or for a real treat, book some spa treatments to experience right there in the Lakehouse to the backdrop of birdsong.
