I would unreservedly recommend this cottage to anyone who wants to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The accommodation is excellent with everything you could need, it was spotless and clearly a great amount of thought has gone into making sure it meets expectations.

Best holiday ever!! What an absolutely fantastic cottage this is!! Immaculately clean with spectacular views from the lounge. The charming town of Denbigh is only three miles away with every amenity on hand. Our charming hosts were brilliant and made us feel very welcome. Our only 'neighbours' were the chickens and the resident horse!! On the days that we preferred to stay at the cottage, our peace and quiet was only spoilt by the ticking of the clock. We would honestly recommend this property 100% and can't wait to return next year, but this time for two weeks instead of one!!

Lovely accommodation in a quiet location but not far to travel to the many places of interest in North Wales. The host was very helpful and made us feel very welcome. Our 2 dogs settled in very quickly and it was great there was a quiet lane right outside the door to walk them in the morning and the evening. It was an added bonus for the friendly horse to come say hello in the morning. We would thoroughly recommend
