Our family home is a Grand Designs favourite. A six-storey historic landmark, complete with roof garden and hot tub, 95ft above the Cheshire countryside. Featured on TV, our iconic home is situated up a quiet lane, with open farmland to the rear. Luxuriate in your own romantic suite, with private access and parking, plus exclusive use of our roof garden and hot tub, complete with 360° views. Welcome drinks upon arrival and breakfast served in your room, crown this unforgettable experience.
The space
NB: Due to the current situation we are happy to offer a change of date or full refund if travel restrictions are in place on the day of your check in.
Exhausted and in need of some hush? We guarantee a break from your everyday life that will have you unwinding from the moment you walk through the door. A relaxing stillness, peaceful warmth, and romantic atmosphere are assured. If you're looking to play loud music, stay out late, or party, this is not the place for you!
One of only two suites on offer, the Penthouse Suite comprises of an open-plan lounge, en-suite and bedroom, complete with a king-sized bed. It boasts spectacular views, a stunning sound system, mood lighting and a TV. A guest tablet is also provided in each suite.
A dividing wall separates the lounge from the bedroom space. An open-plan en-suite sits behind a large frosted glass block screen, complete with limestone wet-floor, Lefroy Brookes fittings and a Philip Starck shower. Colour mixing lighting finishes off this space. The suite sleeps two.
You'll also have exclusive access to our spectacular roof garden, with sun loungers, a traditional teak hot tub and stunning 360-degree views of Cheshire and beyond (details below). With the cathedrals of Liverpool on one horizon and the city of Manchester on another, this is a unique space, summer or winter, day or night. Be it a long leisurely sundowner, a soak in the hot tub, a yoga session, or simply lounging around in the sunshine, the roof garden is a space like no other.
Continental breakfast trays are served in your room and welcome refreshments are provided. You'll also have access to a refreshment area, complete with, tea and coffee making facilities, ice, glasses and a fridge.
Please note that all spaces are thoroughly cleaned every day, following Airbnb's Covid-19 protocols. You will also be provided with various sanitising products to use during your stay. To avoid any damage, please do not use your own sanitising products on any surfaces in the house.
As well as the Penthouse Suite on the top floor, we also have the Master Suite available on the first and second floors of the tower. To find out more, see: airbnb.com/h/luxury-master-suite

Guest access
This is our family home and we live here with our two children and two dogs. That said, you will have your own separate entrance up a stone spiral staircase to your suite.
Check-in is between 3pm and 7pm. Check-out is at 10am. Please note, due to the new Covid-19 cleaning protocols, we cannot offer an early check-in, or a late check-out.
Exclusive use of the Roof Garden and Hot Tub has been reserved for guests staying in our Penthouse Suite, as follows:
Afternoon sessions:
4:30pm to 5:30pm (1 hour)
6:30pm to 7:30pm (1 hour)
Evening sessions:
8:30pm to 9:30pm (1 hour)
10:30pm to 11:30pm (1 hour)
Morning session:
7am to 8am (1 hour)
During these times, you will be able to access the roof garden and hot tub, for your own uninterrupted private use. Outside of these times the space is available for our other guests exclusive use, so please finish your session on time, out of respect for our other guests.
Guests booking for two, or more nights, will be able to also use the roof garden and hot tub between 1100 and 1400 each day.
Please note that use of the roof garden and hot tub is weather-dependent, with access being restricted in high winds. Strictly no guest access to the roof garden and hot tub after 11:30pm.
Lastly, as this is our home (and to avoid guests turning into pumpkins), we kindly request that all guests return home by midnight.
Other things to note
Ideal for business or leisure guests. The Water Tower is 20 min from Manchester Airport, 25 min to Manchester City centre and 30 min to Liverpool. You can come and go as you please, as the suite is accessible directly off the spiral stone staircase - so you don't need to go through the rest of the house.
We have an EV (Electric Vehicle) charging point available for use. Please alert us in advance, should you wish to use this. We also offer guests a free Telsa chauffeur service into Lymm village (subject to availability).
We have two well-behaved dogs who would love to meet you. However, we understand that not everyone likes dogs so please let us know if you'd rather not meet them! :)
Most of the house has an open aspect, with views of the rolling Cheshire countryside, which is accessible from the bottom of the garden.
Lastly, whilst were happy for you to bring your own drinks to enjoy in your room, or on the roof, the consumption of food is not allowed in your suite, or on the roof garden. Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside the property, or on the roof garden (you are, however, welcome to smoke in the courtyard).

Lymm, United Kingdom
Lymm is a great place to visit day or night. It is a lovely quaint village offering walks around Lymm Dam, along the Bridgewater Canal and cycling along the Trans Pennine Way all within walking/cycle distance from the tower.
There are numerous cafes and restaurants to chose from all within walking distance - our local pub (5-minute walk) is owned by Michelin Star celebrity chef Aiden Byrne and his lovely wife Sarah - providing excellent food at a very reasonable price. We also have Italian, Chinese, Indian, Thai and French restaurants in the village and a great little cafe with a beautiful terrace providing delicious breakfasts and lunches. Altrincham Market is also a fantastic eating and drinking space, only a 15 min drive away; it boasts the worlds best pizzas, amongst many other delights.
Dunham Massey and Tatton Park - two fabulous National Trust properties are within a 10-minute drive. Manchester City Centre 20 mins and Liverpool 30 mins drive. Chester is 30 minutes too, and the beautiful market town of Knutsford a 15 mins drive.

Hi I’m Jannette! I live at our beautiful Water Tower home with my husband Russell. I’ve spent most of my working life in the television industry and now enjoy a relaxed life in the lovely village of Lymm. Our two children have now left home so Airbnb is a great way for others to enjoy our home whilst we get to meet some very lovely people!

During your stay
Due to Covid-19, we aim to keep guest interaction down to a minimum. After a brief social-distanced welcome in our hallway, you'll be given your own personal guest tablet that will guide you around the house and your suite. Lasting around 15-minutes, the video-tour takes you through the house, highlighting the facilities on offer, helping you to make the most of your stay.
We want you to feel at home, but to also respect that this is our family home too. We will be present during your stay; however, the Penthouse Suite is your private space for your exclusive use.
We like to respect your privacy, so once you are settled in we will communicate by phone. We are here most of the time to help and advise on things to do!
