Daisy Joy Escapes

As new life emerges from our old vicarage at Eskdale Retreat, hats off and respect to this man, Ian, Site Manager at Leck Construction. We've had many challenges on our restoration journey and with quiet determination he has navigated them all. The end of our journey is (nearly) in sight. Thank you, Ian! 🙏🏻✊

Another wonderful guest review of Edgar House, Chester. Thank you!

“I chose Edgar House for my 30th birthday celebration weekend and it didn’t disappoint. Everything about this property is world class; the facilities, the high-spec finishes, the amazing outdoor area, the river view and the fantastic location.

We hosted a murder mystery night and a black-tie drinks reception the following night. Every guest was blown away by the property.

Thank you to Caroline and Mark who, from the second we booked, were extremely accommodating to any request, big or small. We can’t wait to come and stay again!”

It’s an exciting week in Chester with the Duke of Westminster’s wedding to Olivia Henson taking place at Chester Cathedral. We may be a bit biased but we think Chester has to be one of the most beautiful backdrops for any wedding. If you‘re attending a wedding in Chester, take a look at Edgar House, a luxury regency house on the banks of the River Dee that can sleep up to 16 of your friends and family.

We've spent the weekend exploring some of the mountain bike routes around Eskdale Retreat. Oh wow! ❤️❤️ Absolutely stunning - and better way to end an adventure on the fells, than jumping into the deep river pool at the edge of the garden at Eskdale Retreat! Recharge, refresh and repeat!

Take a stroll through the history of this home. We’ve found some incredible images to share with you showing its evolution, now we begin its latest restoration journey.

Built around 1700, this historic, listed home boasts unparalleled views of the Menai straits and Eryri (Snowdonia). After standing empty for two decades, this week we took our first steps to restoring this incredible home where old will blend with new in a captivating restoration journey.

We spent the day working in the garden at Menai Hall today. Lots to do! Who doesn't love an autumnal bonfire! We found this beautiful flower in an overgrown bed. We think it's called Amaryllis belladonna, also known as the Naked-lady-lily or March lily, a plant species native to Cape Province in South Africa.
