Freshwinds, Market Drayton

We stayed as a group of 13 friends and the house was absolutely perfect for us. It was so spacious we could even play hide and seek! The rooms were large and more than accommodating, and dining was never an issue as there was more than enough seating for everyone. The kitchen was fully loaded, from espresso machines to slushie makers, which was a great bonus. There was loads to do while still having privacy when needed. The outdoor games room and pool tables were amazing, and the swimming pool and jacuzzi were fantastic even in the winter. The location was ideal too, being close to Stockport with short drives to both the Peak District and Manchester. The neighbours were incredibly helpful and friendly, and there was more than enough driveway space for parking. A special thank you to Rob and Stephen, who were more than accommodating and extremely helpful throughout our stay. Overall, a fantastic experience and highly recommended for large groups.

We had a fantastic few days. First time doing something like this and enjoyed the experience.

Fabulous! Could not fault a single thing. The whole family enjoyed an amazing weekend for my husbands 60th birthday. The kids loved the pool, the gardens, the football, the games room and the hot tub. They were never short of something to occupy them. The pool was an amazing temperature for mid December. The karaoke was an added bonus in the evening. And the adults loved the hot tub. Would love to stay again.

We were a group of 13 ranging from 3 year olds to 64. Celebrating a 50th it was ideal for all of us plenty of space both inside and out. Lovely big rooms. There was everything you needed. The pool and huttub was a great hit with us even though the weather was a little cold it didn't deter us from getting in. Great time had by all would love to come back in the summer and enjoy all the outside spaces.

As a group of 9, we had a fantastic stay at Freshwinds for our annual long weekend away. It's set in beautiful surroundings, was easy to find, and is well placed to explore the area. The property is amazing with comfortable bedrooms, plenty of lounge and dining space to relax in as a group, and so much entertainment. The pool and hot tub were definitely highlights, but we also enjoyed the karaoke, table tennis, table football, etc. We will definitely be looking to book again.

Freshwinds was amazing! We had the best time! Excellent facilities, huge grounds and Steve was responsive and helpful ! We look forward to visiting again!

Fantastic property, has everything you could want or need. Had a great time. Great communication too.

We loved it, would definitely visit again! Had lots of people ask how I found it and they would love to stay!

Top Pool & Hot Tub were the best we've ever had for warmth and size and the floats provided really made the holiday I especially liked the small volleyball net, kids liked the flamingo. Table Football, Ice Hockey and Pool also good Table Tennis played the one on the pool table as found the one under the tent too dark surrounded by too much greenery . Also found any problems we had were fixed straight away By far we rated this one of the best holidays ever.

Fantastic property, plenty of things to do. Ideally situated for our needs. Well set up with enough room and activities to keep 7 grandchildren occupied . Would definitely book again.

Fantastic communication and responsiveness overall, and a great range of equipment and facilities. Disappointed with hot tub and pool not being ready for use within a reasonable time despite the fact that I specifically checked all of this prior to booking and again prior to arrival. Also we were not advised of pool leak and need to keep hose running cold water this must surely have added to temperature problem? Suggest addition of coat hooks, and somewhere to put shoesboots onin porch area? We could only run one shower at a time, which with a large group was a little inconvenient could this be improved?

Lovely property photos did not do it justice. Only fault the internet was down the whole weekend so no WiFi. We had planned events using WiFi karaoke, quiz night, Netflix for kids unable to do any of these things with no WiFi. Signal not great at the property

Gorgeous house in a very peaceful location. We had ages 5 to 75 on this break and we all had a wonderful time. The pool and hot tub were a great hit with everyone. House was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Would definitely highly recommend it.

Brilliant place to celebrate the chilling 40th birthday with swimming pool and hot tub. Nice cosy and fab layouts. They love your ice machine for their nice ice cold cocktails!

We had a fabulous time at Freshwinds. The instructions, directions and communications were spot on. Steve was very welcoming when showing us around. The property is well appointed and we had no problems relaxing and keeping ourselves entertained. The pool room, karaoke, swimming pool and hot tub were a treat and there was plenty of room for us all to find a quiet nook if needed. We are already planning next years trip!!

The house was great with plenty of room for 13 people. We were a bit disappointed that there wasnt a lot of fridge space as the big American style fridge was tucked away in the pool house and had a sign on not in use. Although we used the pool, it was a bit on the cool side and we didnt stay in for too long , though the hot tub was well used. The younger members enjoyed the x boxes, karaoke machine and the pool table Just a 10 minute walk to the local pub which has a good sized garden

This is a fantastic, tranquil property, with excellent facilities. Stephen and Robert are great communicators and went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible.

Overall it was great for a family holiday and the children in the party loved all of it. The kitchen was well provisioned but a little bit tired.

Absolutely brilliant stay everything you could wish for for the children and adults. 6 adults and 5 children had a lovely family stay.

Absolutely fantastic weekend thank you. Everywhere was immaculate. We had a group of 10 of us and there was plenty of room. The swimming pool was warm and used lots. The spa great. So much to do. Unlike other houses there was plenty of room for us to sit and eat together. Beds were really comfortable too. We had a delivered curry from Lodge India, which was lovely. Highly recommend.

Had a fab time the property was brilliant there was nothing it didn't have outdoor area was stunning especially at night with all the lights . Kids loved it so much to do the pool, table tennis ,football pool hottub . Owner was friendly and accommodating was a perfect holiday

Absolutely beautiful. The venue was excellent to celebrate our Birthday together 70th 66th 16 of us stayed Inc 6 grandchildren they loved the pool and hot tub. Everything was on hand and we made good use of the washing machine and tumble dryer. Bedrooms were spacious and spotless. Enough toilets to go round gardens were great with plenty to explore. 100 We will definitely be going back. Tv and Karaoke went well in every room. The only Downside of the whole holiday was the owner of the house next door. Had a JCB going from 08.00 to 17.00 Destroyed any peace and tranquility for which we needed. To help us rest bite from major ongoing terminal operations. We also had an infestation of ants which may have been caused by the groundwork that was caused by the next doors owner. They also had a fire going which sent ash over into our pool area contaminating all our excellent facilities which we had to clean up before we could carry on with our holiday. It truly spoilt our holiday. And was of no fault to the excellent venue. We would highly recommend Fresh winds and look forward to a return Health permitting.

Excellent property and facilities.

Well what can I say to do this property justice, it absolutely exceeded all our expectations! ! As a family its very rare to get us all together for any length of time & this property allowed us to do just that this weekend! At no time did any of our five grandchildren aged between 6 & 12 say Im bored which is in its self amazing!! The pool area along with the hot tub was used all day with an array of inflatables to use!! There was everything you could wish for from darts to ping pong, Xbox to karaoke which we all used!! The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need along with washing machine & tumble drier which came in handy for the pool towels provided!! This was the perfect 60th birthday celebration for my husband who just wanted his family together & he loved every minute as did everyone!! We have so many photo's & precious memories made!! A special thank you to Stephen Smith who went above & beyond to ensure we had a memorable stay!! Would definitely consider going back some time in the future!!

We were a group of 16 aged between 1 and 73 and the house was just perfect for us. I was a little worried that it was going to be a bit run down as the photos show the house is quite dated but I dont think the photos do the house justice at all! The place is immaculate! It is old fashioned in parts but it has been so well maintained and is spotlessly clean. It feels so homely due to all the added extras the owner has considered for all ages, the biscuits and bottle of port on arrival, the decor the games and toys, Xboxs, karaoke, the little ones loved the giant dinosaur in the bedroom and the little man cave outside. The games area in the garage was a huge hit too. We loved that we could easily switch the table up to change from pool to air hockey and table tennis and also play darts too. The outside area is amazing and despite the endless rain we still made use of the pool and hot tub. Summer here would be spectacular! The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you need, even herbs and spices in the cupboards. We reported that the washing machine appeared faulty and even though we said it wasnt an issue and that we didnt need it anymore it was replaced within half an hour. All the bedrooms were a great size, nicely decorated and very comfortable. If I can suggest one improvement it would be hooks or something to hang bath towels on to dry. Really minor but that was the one and only thing I thought could be better. Overall, absolutely perfect stay, thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Spent four days celebrating 80th Birthday with family of 11 people. All facilities as described and everyone enjoyed their stay. Swimming pool and hot tub were much appreciated, together with all the other facilities which kept us occupied even though the weather was cold and wet. House was lovely and warm and comfortable. Special mention to Steve for his handover and help. Nothing was too much trouble for him.

The photo's don't do it justice. We were a party of 13 adults for a 50th Birthday and we had plenty of room, the facilities are neverending. Everything you could want and more. The bottle of Port and the gingerbread was very much appreciated.

Was a beautiful property and nicer than the pictures. The facilities and attention to detail with extras for our stay, sets this property apart.

We had a fabulous weekend celebrating my 70th birthday, there were Fourteen of us, ages ranging from 30 to 79. All our needs were covered, most of us ventured into the pool, which, considering it was early February, was fairly warm. The hot tub was very welcome after our swim though. A lovely time was had by all.

We went to Freshwinds for a large family Christmas. Loads of space and something to entertain everyone. The bedrooms were great sizes and very well looked after, the living areas were cosy and homely. The extra effort made for our family was lovely, Christmas lights everywhere and presents under the tree. We were worried beforehand about lack of fridgefreezer space to accommodate 13 of us, but there are extra appliances dotted about. A night out in Newcastle under Lyme only cost 20 back in an uber. The nearby Coop.was well used. So many little quirky extras to this place, we loved it

Very comfortable house with everything you need, we were a party aged 1 to 60, made good use of the hot tub and a couple of people even braved the pool despite temps of 4 outside. The decorations lit up the house outside and inside making it feel very much like Christmas. Walked to Loggerheads for a meal which took around 20mins and would recommend a visit to Trentham Gardens, well worth the admission fee with a number of shops at the entrance to the gardens too.

Stayed here for a week at end of September with family members ranging from ages 579. The weather wasnt particularly nice, quite a lot of rain so unfortunately children couldnt enjoy the garden as much as they would have liked. BUT it didnt stop anybody enjoying the pool & the hot tub, both very nice & warm. The indoor sporty facilities were used & thoroughly enjoyed. The rooms & facilities were clean & comfortable if a little dated in places. Plenty big enough for our family party of 11. Maybe lacking in another bathroom & would have been great to have had an outdoor shower & toilet. But, all in all an extremely enjoyable break. Thank you.

Great location and house. So many facilities and things to keep you entertained at the property! Would stay again

Lovely house was enjoyed by the whole family. Host was super helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend!

Furnishings and decor require updating. Kitchen units need attention as do some torn and ripped carpets. Hot water was not always available.

Dated, but very clean, great facilities x

Lovely house perfect for our stay. We were a party of 11 adults with 8 children 5 of which were in travel cots so plenty of room for all! The house was clean well equipped and we had a great fun. The pool was a bit too cold for us to use in the weather we had but clean and wellaibtained would be fab in summer. The hot tub was well appreciated as was the darts and ping pong area. Garden was massive and spanned several areas which was great for an Easter egg hunt and the football pitch was also well used by the young and adult boys. Thanks to the hosts for an easy and pleasant stay including returning items left behind!

We had a lovely stay at Fresh winds, friends travelled from all over the country and it was easy to get to. Great facilities and lots of room. The house is a little bit dated but that didn't impact on our stay at all.
