What our customers say about their holidays
Rita - Verified booking
We were delighted with our stay at Byrn Howell Stables.
The cottage was warm, welcoming and very comfortable. The views amazing from all the windows upstairs and down. The garden space which looked out onto the view was great. The bonus for us was that when the owner came the next morning, not only to make sure we could work all the appliances etc., but he also welcomed my grandkids to use the field at the bottom of our garden to run around in. (We could keep our eye on them from inside the cottage.) He also told us that we could walk in their woods, play in their stream, and pick as many apples as we wanted from their orchard. (October 2022) We were a stone's throw from the canal and enjoyed many walks from the accommodation. A short drive away was 'Dinas Bran' (a view we could see from the cottage which the owner told us about) with its spectacular panoramic views. We had a delightful scramble from the roadside up to the ruins of the castle at the top. (About 20 mins, ages ranging from 5 to 66.) The lovely little town of Llangollen is about 3 miles away with its array of little gift shops and also an Aldi for the groceries. Midweek, we also had a fantastic day at Zipworld, Betws-y-Coed, an hour's drive away. (Expensive but well worth the joy it put on all our faces.) Everything that made for an excellent holiday for our mixed age group was found here. I liked the idea of the maintenance book which allowed us to write a small issue that could then be sorted for the next occupants. It's clearly stated by the owners in the paperwork how to get to the cottage, however, we found that a little bit challenging because we didn't remind ourselves of the info provided. (I saw it 6 months prior when I booked but forgot to revisit.) As a suggestion, I think it would be VERY helpful for the owners to remind folks of those details when ringing to find out about the key pick-up, as the satnav does NOT lead directly to the cottage. I just hope my (genuine) praise for Bryn Howell Stables, wouldn't mean I'd have to book two years in advance to get a booking confirmed in the future or that it puts the price through the roof? :-) I'd have no hesitation in returning or recommending it to others. Thank you so much to all concerned, for such a brilliant holiday!!!

The tranquility of the cottage is wonderful.
Sitting outside watching the sunset drop into the hills whilst listening to the evening birdsong is a dream. A bench would have been the perfect spot from which to toast the amazing view at any time of day. Inside is equally beautiful, comfortable furnishings, beds with luxury bedding and all the amenities needed whilst on holiday. The very welcome addition of log provision for the full extent of our stay was indeed included in our rent! For us that was the first of our several Sykes Cottages stays to actually fulfil their claim of âfuel includedâ, so many only provide a âStarter Packâ which doesnât even last one evening! Then thereâs the log buying expedition. We three adults and my elderly dog spent very comfortable evenings in the warmth of the log fire, not least because the laminated printed instructions for the fire were well written and accurate. During the day a two mile walk along the town path to the Pontcysylite Aqueduct before breakfast suited one of us, another preferred the couple of tow path miles in the other direction to Llangollen as an afternoon walk. Me? Happy to dog sit, read, and encourage old man Border Terrier to stretch his legs as far as the tow path a mere few metres away! The Stables gave me the much needed calming down period following a bereavement. It was perfect to have my friends visit and look after me whilst my batteries recharged as well as the cottage being in the perfect spot to venture out and explore as and when we wished. Help from the very kind owners who live nearby was quickly organised when I stupidly managed to lock myself out in my pajamas without the keys or phone! One confused dog was left wondering how he was going to get his breakfast! I can thoroughly recommend Bryn Howell Stables to those who would appreciate its feeling of being a luxury sanctuary in the beauty of North Wales.

Pros Beautiful and idyllic location, right near a farm, amazing views from all windows in property of surrounding area.
Accessible to pretty villages and towns such as Pembridge, Lyonshall and Weobley. Lots of local amenities nearby. Approachable and friendly owners. Cons The lanes leading up to the cottage were very narrow and prone to floods after heavy rain. The accommodation did not feel as warm and inviting as other places we have stayed. No provision of refreshments e.g milk/tea bags. The cottage is very dated, lacked cleanliness in some areas e.g the cover on the dining table had food stains when we arrived, microwave and fridge were also unclean, grubby stains in bathroom wash basins and toilets. We opted not to use the washing machine during our stay due to build up of black gunk/grime between the drum. The shower downstairs is not suitable for an adult as it's very small and had to be operated on low water pressure otherwise the drain gets blocked and water accumulates. The flush on both toilets lacks robustness and often requires several attempts to get it to work. The toilet seat downstairs is broken and should be replaced. Very creaky upstairs and down the stairs which can cause interference if you're a light sleeper. The bedroom pillows were very flat which made sleeping uncomfortable. Bathrooms had rope light pulls which were unclean. Heating system seemed to be pre-programmed to come on at certain times. We found the cottage was cold at night and warmed up at 6am.

This was our third stay at the cottage, which says it all.
It has everything you need for a really comfortable stay in a very secluded spot which is very close to Llangollen and lots of other places to visit. The canal is on your doorstep offering lovely easy short and longer walks whichever you want. There is a great log burner in the living room, supplementing the very efficient central heating, which is most welcoming on cold October evenings. The kitchen is well equipped with lovely views from the dining table. Three good size bedrooms and two spacious bathrooms complete the cottage. The garden is a great size for sitting out admiring the view, even in late October it was a nice sun trap. The dogs loved it and being so secluded it provided excellent star gazing opportunities. The owner lives nearby and is very helpful without ever being intrusive. A delicious homemade cake provided a nice welcome on our arrival.

Bryn Howell Stables is a lovely rural retreat.
The conversion has been very sympathetically done and many of the features of the old stables have been retained. It feels very homely and lived-in. It is ideally situated near the famous canal, only separated from it by a high hedge. It is a two mile walk along the canal towpath in one direction to Llangollen and a one and three quarter mile walk in the other direction to the famous aquaduct. The location is very quiet and secluded. You need to be aware that you have to travel a little way on a narrow, unpaved track to get to the property but we didnât find this a problem. The property is ideally situated to take advantage of all the walking and outdoor activities available in the area. I went canoeing across the aqueduct with âBearded Men Adventuresâ which I would highly recommend. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
