Short Breaks in Chester
Cheshire
The county of Cheshire, in North West England, predominantly lies in an area of plains known as the Cheshire Gap, and is renowned for the production of Cheshire cheese and woven silk. It has many sites of historical interest, and is popular for both family short break holidays, and culture and history short breaks. Its county town is the historic walled city of Chester and other major towns include Warrington, Crewe, Ellesmere Port, Widnes, Runcorn and Macclesfield. Self-catering holiday properties for rent include a contemporary town house in Chester and a canalside apartment, also in Chester.
A holiday break in Cheshire offers a varied choice of places to visit, including the grand estate at Tatton Park, the beautiful Chester Cathedral, the vast zoological gardens of Chester Zoo, the enormous Lovell telescope at the Jodrell Bank Observatory and the historic site of Norton Priory.
