  Yr Hel Felin is a lovely property full of character in a quiet little village but close to bigger villages/towns.

  We went during a week of 30+ degree heat and because of the huge thick walls the property was lovely and cool! A nice welcome back was waiting including milk, biscuits and some lovely lemon cakes as well as the tea, coffee, etc in the cupboard. The property also has excellent WiFi throughout which we weren't expecting given its remote nature. Inside the property it's full of original features which make it fascinating. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need, good quality pans, trays, roasting tins, cutlery, cups, etc and a good sound system on the ground floor kitchen/dining area. The beds are super comfy with good quality mattresses and good sized bedrooms. The top floor is where the cottage earns it's extra stars! Electric piano, a guitar, a pool table (even a supply of chalk for the queues) and a good sized TV with an outstanding sound system. Many a game of pool were enjoyed (undefeated, just leave that here so it's immortalised) and a film or two at night. The property also comes with loads of board games, jigsaws, DVDs, blue rays, cds and books. Everything you could wish for! Outside the garden pleasantly surprised us with the size. It's not really one you could have a game of football in but the kids loved running up the stairs, over the top, and down the sloped path. Plus, the top of the garden is lovely and shaded by the trees, with excellent views. The picnic table on the patio is a nice touch and allows you to have a nice meal or drink whilst watching the cows! A children's playground, with a full size football net is about a 5 minute walk away, and a couple of minutes further down the road is The Grouse Inn (award winning pub) and probably the best bit, the River. We spent time in the River, swimming and playing, virtually every day, kids absolutely loved it (and me!). Corwen (6 minute drive) has a well stocked Nisa supermarket and plenty of take aways. Llangollen is a 16 minute drive which has plenty of shops, river activities, horse drawn canal boats and the all important Oggies and Ice Cream! Worth a visit to the stunning aqueduct too!! Loved this place, the area, the locals and will definitely be back in the future.

  Lovely interesting property.

  Only ‘negatives’ were, it was very dark on the ground floor (probably lovely and cool when it’s hot weather though because of the thickness of the walls), to relax in the tv/games room (a wonderful room) means carrying cups of tea etc up and down two flights of stairs all the time and the third child’s bedroom/bunk beds is very small (we didn’t need this but note if you do - it is a room for sleeping only, no play room for kids at all!!) BUT - there were a LOT of positives - interesting, plenty of room, comfortable, really well stocked/equipped with all the general bits and bobs for cooking/cleaning etc. plus lots more, lovely situation, nice and quiet, great for dogs being hard floors with rugs on every level, (though we had to be really careful on the stairs as being wood they were very slippery for our two - so we had them on a lead up and down stairs every time), garden not dog secure but nice outlook and had the weather been warm we would have sat out at the table to the rear. Tip - if you have dogs and take them out last thing, you’ll need a torch as it’s pitch black outside (and yes, there is a torch in one of the drawers - well equipped again), although we took our own. We will be back in the area within 2 months and would have stayed here again but we need a Saturday to Saturday booking for this next visit which unfortunately would be an astronomical cost for this place as we would be charged for two full weeks as it’s only let Friday to Friday - a bit of flexibility and reasonable pricing would be helpful here!

  On arrival the property oozed character and had a nice touch with some milk and lemon cakes in the fridge alongside tea, coffee, etc in the cupboard.

  The cupboard does have some useful other sauces, but also a fair few things well out of date (was tempted to throw but not my place) The property has much of its original features which make it different from the norm, and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need, pans, trays, tins, cutlery, cups, etc. The downstairs show door broke on our 5th day (which was reported and no doubt fixed now) but it didnt stop our stay anyway. The beds are well comfy with good quality mattresses and good sized bedrooms, whilst the top floor is has a lounge area piano, a guitar, a pool table and a good sized TV, alongside loads of board games, jigsaws, DVDs, blue rays, cds and books, great stock. Outside the garden patio is nice with excellent views and steps leading to a top garden part which is really nice to sit down and admire the view. My only negative, which is no fault of the owner, would be the road from the property to Corwen (excellent chippie), very narrow and extremely unkept with regard to craters (pot holes) which actually damaged my low suspensioned car. Llangollen is near also and has plenty of shops, nice little town and gorgeous idyllic views whilst you drive, just wow! Whilst Landudno is a must for the seaside, an hour away but well worth it, my new favourite seaside resort.

  We really enjoyed staying in this cottage it was like a home from home with everying we needed.

  The games room was fantastic loads of things to do for everyone board games, books, dvd's, playstation, pool, TV as well as being very comfortable. The kitchen was very well provisioned, loved the warming draw and the very large dining table. Just one very small negative note was the ouside of the cupboards felt sticky and the doors on the bottom ones were a little dirty which I felt I needed to clean. The welcome gift of tea, milk and cake was greatly appreciated as was the provision of condiments and other bits and bobs left for our use. The beds were super comfortable and the bathroom facilities were good. The location was great it felt nice and rural but wasn't to far away from anything. Great location for travelling to many different places we left feeling we still had so much to see. Also if you wanted a takeaway most tastes were catered for in the nearby village. We really enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to return.

  My daughter and I, plus my sister and her daughter, enjoyed a week in this beautifully restored old mill.

  It’s well equipped and although we’d taken supplies with us, it was nice to find tea, coffee, etc. there. Also some milk and welsh cakes in the fridge for us. I had chosen this cottage especially as it has a proper games room, with a pool table. It’s a big room with large television, a large selection of dvds for adults and children as well as board games, Lego and musical instruments, great, we loved it.. This is on the third floor, 2 flights of stairs, a lovely big room with some of the original mill fittings. Although the cottage sleeps 6, one bedroom is small and has sort of bunk beds which are more suitable for one adult or 2 children. The games room has 2 very big settees though, if there was a problem with sleeping arrangements. As others have said, The Grouse Inn serves very good food and is only a 10-15 minute walk away, lovely views.
