About this property
A stylish, contemporary, farmhouse, next to the owner's home, on their smallholding, on the outskirts of Llannefydd village, in an elevated location above the Dolwen Reservoir, on the Denbighshire/Conwy border. This detached, delightful cottage offers quality accommodation and breathtaking views as soon as you enter into the double height, summer room, which soaks up the country views across the valley. Opening into a modern kitchen with a breakfast area, you will find everything you need to enjoy a sociable meal with friends and family whilst taking in the undisturbed panoramic views. A second reception room provides a cosy area to sit and read or watch TV. The addition of a ground floor bedroom, enjoying the use of a wet room next door, making it suitable for the less able guest, if required. Upstairs you will find two king-size bedrooms, one with en-suite facilities, the other a Juliet balcony, and a triple bedroom, again ideal for children, all enjoying some of the best views available in North Wales. The half-mile track to the farmhouse, though un-adopted, is in good condition and level and worth the walk back into the village to enjoy the hospitality at the 17th century coaching inn and restaurant, perhaps after a walk down to the reservoir to enjoy a spot of fishing first. If that doesnt give you enough to do, then a ½ acre meadow outside the cottage provides all the space children may need to play Frisbee or perhaps fly a kite. The popular seaside town of Abergele is a short drive away and opens up to miles of sandy beaches and coastal walks along the Welsh coastline. Alternatively, visit the market town of Denbigh or the newly-appointed city of St Asaph, both just 15 minutes drive away. The area is renowned for its stunning scenery and country walks, and will have you returning to this luxury cottage time and time again.
Only 7 miles from the lovely North Wales coast lies the rural village of Llannefydd, located between the historic town of St Asaph, with its impressive cathedral, Rhuddlan with its majestic castle, and Abergele with its fabulous sandy beaches.

We were a group of 4 adults and 5 children. The play barn was a brilliant space for the kids (and adults too!) Very comfortable rooms and a well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed petting and feeding the lovely pigs. Fresh eggs made for a lovely treat too. Away from the hustle and bustle in a beautiful area of North Wales, thank you for a lovely holiday.

We were a group of 4 adults and 3 children and we found that there was more than enough space for us all. The surrounding area is so peaceful and the thing that we loved the most were those breathtaking views of the countryside from the back of the house. Charles and Angharad keep the house very clean, the beds were comfortable and the showers were super powerful. The kitchen has everything you could need really, we even did some clothes washing because the kids had got themselves dirty and sweaty whilst off on our adventures. In fact, we loved it so much that we decided that we wanted to book again for next summer about two days into our stay! The kids loved feeding the pigs and watching them shuffle past the window in the paddock. To top it all off, the play barn is huge, it had so much to keep the kids entertained- and most importantly, somewhere dry that we could take them to tucker them out before bed! Lovely house, lovely setting and lovely hosts.
