Marbury, Whitchurch

Location

Marbury has been quoted in the media as “ the beautiful village you've probably never heard of with one of the UK's best pubs” (The Swan) which was awarded 'The Best Pub in the North West 2023'. However, Marbury also offers so much more than this popular watering hole, delightful walks can be enjoyed along the rural footpaths along the Shropshire Union Canal and around the two Meres (Little and Big). There is also the historic Church as well as a vibrant village hall. Many events are held in the village including the famous two day traditional country show every May, Marbury Merry Days. Everyday shopping facilities are available at Wrenbury village or alternatively Whitchurch town centre, 3 miles. Rugby, Cricket, Hockey and Football clubs are available at Whitchurch as well as the MacDonald Hill Valley Golf and Country Club. Marbury is ideally situated near mainline rail links - stations at Whitchurch and Wrenbury - to the South or Crewe and Manchester.

Accommodation

The impressive and welcoming reception hall with its 3.5m ceiling height and glazed inner walls provides stunning views through the kitchen and living room to the rolling countryside and Bickerton Hills beyond. A heated limed oak effect tiled floor runs throughout the reception hall, inner hallway and into the well appointed cloakroom as well as the stunning 8.4m kitchen/dining/family room which in turn is open plan to the living room creating a 13m overall reception/living space.
