Welcome to Edgar House!

Edgar House is a luxury holiday home in the heart of Chester, opening in October 2021. It is a fabulous large Georgian house, sleeping up to 16 people, perfectly situated on the ancient Roman walls overlooking the magnificent River Dee. All of the city’s historic attractions, its amazing Storyhouse theatre, famous racecourse, great shops, Grosvenor Park (summer theatre), cafes, bars and restaurants are just a gentle stroll away. Chester's world renowned zoo is a short drive and the many attractions of Cheshire, Liverpool, Manchester and Snowdonia are all easily accessible.

Previously an award-winning boutique hotel Edgar House won many international awards, including Trip Adviser's Best Small Hotel in the World! When the hotel closed in April 2021, having fallen in love with the place as an hotel guest, Mark Ellis jumped at the opportunity to buy the building and to refurbish it into a truly unique, luxury escape for the exclusive use of discerning guests.

The interior is opulent and indulgent, perfectly blending tradition with bold contemporary design. The kitchen, living and dining spaces comfortably seat 16 people. Seven luxurious ensuite bedrooms sleep 14 people, plus 2 extra children on a sofa bed in one of the bedrooms. Relax, chat and laugh in the bright and airy lounge, a super basement cinema room or the quiet library / snug. The house is self-catering. However if you prefer to dine “at home” without cooking, Edgar’s housekeeper will arrange a private chef for you. Outside enjoy the spectacular river view garden, once described by renowned travel writer Alistair Sawday as “Chester’s equivalent of the Royal box”.

The house has plenty of private parking.
