Finding Sirius

You’ll find Sirius tucked up against some trees about 200 meters down a farm track. Surrounded by fields with expansive views stretching as far as Beeston Castle.

Light the wood burner during the winter or relax in our outdoor chairs during the summer with the sound of the stream running past the shack.

Sirius is on a working farm, very occasionally you’ll see the local farmer harvesting crops or herding cattle.

Car:

40 mins from Liverpool
1 hour from Manchester
3 hours 30 from London

Nearest station: Chester, it's a 25-minute taxi from there.

Once you arrive you can park at the bottom of the farm track and it's a 250m walk to the cabin.

Note: In the winter this track can get muddy, you can find some wellies in the log store in the car park to make the walk easier.
