Northop Hall plugs a gap for Welsh Rarebits. We’ve been looking for a good-sized borderland hotel with easy access to the historic city of Chester as well as the rest of North Wales for some time. Northop Hall fits the bill nicely. It’s a long-established country house hotel that, in recent years, has benefited from a revival in fortunes thanks to the arrival of your hosts, experienced hoteliers Tony and Helen Holland and son Charles. The hotel has been extended and modernised, with a new ‘wing’ that matches the frontage of the fine old mansion – which dates from 1872 – perfectly. The additional space has been put to good use by extending Chequers, an airy, attractive restaurant serving an excellent choice of well-priced dishes based on fresh local produce, that’s popular with locals and visitors alike.

Memories of Northop Hall’s ancestry as a gentleman’s residence are most apparent in the comfortable, wood-panelled public rooms and its grand staircase. But it’s not the kind of place that stands on ceremony. Staff are friendly and welcoming, displaying professionalism with a personal touch. The bedrooms, which are benefiting from an ongoing programme of refurbishment, are good sized – especially the bay-windowed Superior rooms – and good value for money. Another plus point is the location, just minutes off the A55 dual-carriage ‘Expressway’ into North Wales yet tucked away in its own nine-acre grounds. It’s ideal for that weekend away exploring the coast, Vale of Clwyd and Clwydian Range – an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’. Most of all, its exceedingly handy for shopping and sightseeing in Chester.
