It is peaceful, spacious, had everything we could want, and was spotlessly clean. The views from back, to the hills and a field full of sheep and pheasants, and front, looking up the back lane of Carrog village, are lovely. The decking at the rear made a lovely place to sit in the evenings, when warm enough. We didn't need to use the car once with great walks to Corwen and elsewhere from nearby and a village bus to Llangollen. Would recommend.

There is plenty of room and pretty much all you could want in the kitchen. The TV is basic Sky only, but that was enough for us on an evening. The wifi was only about 1Mbps, but I could get about 10Mbps on my mobile data. The double beds seemed a little small, but we're used to King size at home. The stairs are not really suitable if you have walking difficulties. The showers could do with having a better water flow, but they were adequate. The skylight in one bedroom let in a lot of light, which you want, but woke us up early, so it could do with a sunscreen especially for summer days when dawn is about 4am A floorboard was loose upstairs, we reported this but didn't hear anything back.
