What our customers say about their holidays

  This was the most peaceful holiday we have ever had, even allowing for having three children with us - 7 year old, 6 year old and 2 year old.

  The "cottage" is so far away from any neighbours, main roads and aircraft flight paths that it can be almost silent at night. Having said that, with reasonable transport, one can get to most interesting parts of North Wales within half an hour or so. The "cottage" is actually an extremely well-converted farmhouse of considerable size. As stated, we were a party of four adults and three children and still had a "spare room". The twin living rooms were wonderful when the weather was less than clement and the patio superb in good weather. We found the kitchen to be second-to-none with superb facilities and ample supplies of all necessary items. Our initial "gripe" was the difficulty my car had in getting up the considerable slope to the site, but this wasn't so bad without all our luggage on subsequent days. However, I would not recommend anyone with low profile tyres to attempt it - I have more than six inches ground clearance! Prior to our holiday, we were kept informed at all stages about the precautions to take, what we should be aware of and any further information that we needed, including excellent directions. Altogether, I cannot praise this site enough; we had a wonderful week and all of us, children included, were very sad to have to leave.

  Beautiful house however the cleanliness and amenities of the house was a major let down.

  To arrive to the property and the house be in a terrible state of cleanliness was a huge let down. We had to go round the house and hoover straight away it was that much of a mess (pictures taken for proof), washing the surfaces and floors as it was stained with marks and crumbs everywhere. The twin room with the bathroom near it had a broken lamp, shoved under the bed with the broken pieces left behind so I'm assuming this was only just broken (pictures again for proof). Our daughters twin room window wasn't safe with a faulty latch and a window that didn't close properly at the base so a huge gap was left which would of been terrible in the winter. All bathrooms were not clean at all, full of black mould around the rims and edges and marks all across the glass frames. Extractor fan didn't work in the family bathroom which wasn't helpful with the steam and condensation issues. The tap in the king size bedroom is extremely faulty and was a struggle to use. I'm sorry but the list could go on but I won't bore you with it all!! Beautiful house, stunning views and we had a lovely family holiday within the area but the house and stay was an issue for us.

  What a wonderful house in gorgeous countryside!

  Everything is to an extremely high standard and there is pretty much everything there you could want. There were five of us, aged up to 92 and all were so impressed. The beds were extremely comfortable, the bathrooms spotless, with excellent showers and loads of hot water. The kitchen/diner was huge and looked brand new and it was perfect for sitting around and chatting after a long dinner. The second sitting room, with its huge sofa and log burner provided a very comfy spot to doze in front of the after a long day out and about. We really could not have asked for more. Only two things to be aware of - the stairs are quite steep, so keep in mind if any guests are older, or less able to climb. The drive up to the house is on very narrow, fairly steep country lanes and it is quite a trek to get off the hill. Not for the faint hearted. And not easy to pop out for a pint of milk - so just be prepared.

  House was great location with stunning views.

  House size was perfect for us. The only niggles we have were that we had to wash the plates and mugs again as they were dirty, food cupboards had crumbs from the previous people and they left very little handwash. However it was a great stay and had everything that we needed there (drying racks, coat hangers,l large oven,plenty of space to relax. The owner was very fast when the toaster blew a fuse which was very reassuring. The bedrooms are good layout and a spacious family bathroom. We got a Asda delivery on the first night which made it easier and went on plenty of days out which were easy to get to in this location. Also I would say to take a kite, field next to the house was perfect.

  We have just come back from the most amazing stay at this cottage, we booked it not knowing if we would be able to go due to Lockdown but luckily we were!

    The house is gorgeous, the view is stunning, all the facilities and little touches were just perfect! I stayed here with my parents, husband and 4 kids ranging from 6months -12years and it suited everyone. We loved it and would stay again in a heartbeat.  We stayed for 7 days and had wonderful weather and every day was different experience for us, Seeing Swallow Falls, Visiting Portmeirion, Climbing Snowdonia, Wandering around the gorgeous town of Llangollen, having a blast on the forest coaster ride at Zip World and walking along the canal to the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct.  Thank you Bryn Mawndy and North Wales
