It was clean and peaceful with a fantastic huge fridge/freezer. It was very handy for the town with its shops and restaurants. We walked everyday from the door.

The property is in excellent condition and very well furnished. It was a pleasure to stay there. The rear garden is well designed and had an outdoor table with chairs. The drive took both our cars. The house is in an excellent location and it was easy to walk down into Llangollen even if there is a slight hill on the return. Lovely views from the front of the property.
