Holiday homes and rentals in Chester

A historical city of beauty

Chester city is a wonderful place for a holiday or city break. You’ll be spoilt for choice – do you stay in the city centre with its Roman walls and amphitheatre, or head to a home just outside, perhaps near the racecourse to the east, or in the pretty village of Boughton to the west. Chester’s famous city walls are the backdrop for superb restaurants and bars, so if you’re looking to be able to walk to fine dining and evening glamour, choose a holiday home around the centre of the city.

Historic buildings ready to welcome you

Chester’s beautiful architecture is reflected in its gorgeous holiday homes, many featuring the attractive red brick so often found in this area.

Outside the city walls you’ll discover picturesque rentals and barn conversions, again with the iconic red Chester brick, and adorned with climbing roses and ivy. No matter where you choose to holiday in Chester, you’ll be surrounded by beauty!

The area and getting around

The England-Wales link

The city of Chester is right on the border with north Wales, and is very close to Liverpool, making it a great location for exploring the surrounding area as well as Chester itself. Easily reached from the M56 motorway, Chester also has good rail links from major UK cities. Once there enjoy a walk past the ancient monuments and along the cobbled streets, soaking in the atmosphere and browsing the fabulous shops.

The Roman walls of Chester

Chester has the best preserved Roman walls in the UK, and they house a wonderful range of independent shops and restaurants. Just outside the walls the River Dee winds its way around the south of the city, offering delightful nature walks and relaxing river trips, and the Chester canal intersects the city giving waterside access without even stepping outside the walls. The Roman amphitheatre in Chester is the largest ever built in Britain and it is now a Grade 1 protected site. This diverse and vibrant city is packed with culture and excitement, a place to luxuriate in the finer side of life, but with huge amounts to offer to travellers on a budget.

Travellers and activities

Chester for couples

There is something so romantic about a beautiful city, and Chester is truly one of the most beautiful in the UK. Stroll hand in hand down the pretty streets, choosing which bar or restaurant you’ll enjoy that evening, take a walk down the banks of the River Dee or the canal’s towpath, and then enjoy a romantic picnic in Grosvenor Park, surrounded by scented flowers and colourful plants. Chester’s charm and splendour is the backdrop to the perfect romantic city break.

Chester for shoppers

Chester is truly a wonderful place for shopping. Packed with both the British high street stores you know and love but also myriad independent shops and boutiques. Chester has the oldest shopping façade in the UK – The Rows – two levels of shopping heaven, covered for any weather, dating back 700 years! Walk in the footsteps of medieval shoppers who passed the same way in days gone by, although the offerings have changed from ironmongers and shoemakers to jewellers and wellness stores. If that’s not enough, just out of town is the huge Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet. Don’t forget your credit card!

Chester is the birthplace of James Bond! Daniel Craig, that is.
