White Horse Inn - A traditional coaching inn with a pub, garden seating, and proximity to Chester

A traditional coaching inn located in the village of Great Barrow, White Horse Inn offers idyllic accommodation in the Cheshire countryside, just 8.0 km from Chester. The property features four guest rooms built into the old stables and hayloft, each equipped with flat-screen TVs, tea/coffee facilities, and ensuite bathrooms with showers. Some rooms include garden views or a private entrance. The on-site pub serves a traditional cooked or continental breakfast, with exposed wooden beams and a log fire, alongside a selection of 32 gins and locally sourced cask ales. Guests can relax in the large beer garden with seating. Nearby landmarks include Beeston Castle (6 km), Lloyds Meadow Fishery (5 km), and Chester Cathedral (7 km). A three-course takeaway menu is available for collection or delivery every Friday.

Pros

The pub offers a wide selection of drinks, including 32 gins and rotating local cask ales.

Rooms feature garden views and private entrances for added convenience.

Proximity to Chester (8 km) and multiple nearby attractions like Beeston Castle.

Large beer garden with seating provides outdoor relaxation space.

Cons

Some rooms lack wardrobes, offering only hanging rails.

No on-site restaurant for dine-in evening meals; takeaway options are available.

“The White Horse Inn, near Chester Zoo, strikes me as a particularly welcoming spot. Expect spacious, well-appointed rooms alongside genuinely friendly service; the food, especially the Sunday roast, also stands out. It's the kind of place where you feel instantly at home, a rare find.”
