Muddy Meadow-on-Hills

Official Coat of Arms

A silver wellington boot rampant upon a field of perpetual drizzle, flanked by two confused hikers consulting their satnav. Above, a crown of rolling hills that definitely weren't mentioned in the property description.

TripAdvisor Review

★★★☆☆ 3/5

"Lovely little place with genuine character, though I'd recommend waterproof boots year-round. The Red Lion does decent pub grub and the church is properly ancient. Spent half my visit wondering if I'd taken a wrong turn somewhere as it's surprisingly hilly for something that sounds so Welsh but feels so Cheshire."

Property Listing

Supporting Evidence

Despite its Welsh-sounding name meaning 'bad passage,' Malpas sits just inside the Welsh border and has spent centuries confusing visitors who expect it to be more dramatically Welsh than it actually feels.
