Guests say

Pant Dafydd Goch is a charming and spacious cottage in Llangollen, highly praised for its stunning views, peaceful and remote location, and ample space for large groups and family gatherings. Guests have celebrated memorable occasions here, enjoying the property's character, cosy fireplaces, and welcoming atmosphere. The surrounding countryside offers delightful tranquillity and opportunities for outdoor activities.

While many guests found the property clean and well-presented, with sparkling kitchenware and pristine bathrooms, there were some concerns about general cleanliness and maintenance issues. Some guests noted the need for a deeper clean, particularly in the kitchen area, and the presence of pests.

The cottage's location is consistently lauded for its outstanding rural views and serene setting. It offers a sense of seclusion and is ideal for those seeking tranquillity and a connection with nature. However, the access road is noted to be challenging for some vehicles.

Guests have complimented the comfortable furnishings, cosy lounges with fireplaces, and the ample space that allows for both privacy and communal gatherings. The presence of multiple bathrooms and bedrooms decorated with character adds to the overall comfort. However, some guests mentioned issues with heating and water supply that impacted their comfort.

The property is appreciated for its well-equipped kitchens, entertainment options like a pool table and darts board, and outdoor spaces. However, there are reports of maintenance issues such as non-functioning showers and dishwashers, and some guests suggested improvements to the outdoor furniture and fixtures.

The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident in the provision of welcome packs and their responsiveness to guests' needs. Some guests received gifts and festive decorations for special occasions, contributing to a personalised and memorable experience. It should be noted that such gestures, while appreciated, may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

A detached former farmhouse once forming part of the Chirk Castle estate, located in a secluded spot just above the market town of Llangollen, enjoying far reaching views and open countryside. Perfect for families or friends wishing to escape from it all, this isolated retreat is something special, oozing with character and charm from start to finish. Enter the accommodation via the porch, where you will arrive at a farmhouse kitchen/diner, which brings a sense of the countryside indoors. Whether preparing your favourite meals or dining with your loved ones, this is a homely place to unwind in comfort. Two sitting rooms rest on the ground floor, the first comes as a cosy snug with a selection of seating, whilst the second boasts an enchanting dining area, joined by an L-shaped sofa and exposed beams. Wherever you choose to relax, simply sit back and enjoy the warmth from the woodburning stove, tucked away beneath exposed stonework and antique furniture. Cosy up in the one-of-a-kind, en-suite double bedroom come night time, or choose between the two first floor doubles, elevated by a front-facing or south-facing view. The same sense of quirkiness continues to the twin set-up, and a family bathroom ties this all together in a quality fashion. If you can steer yourself away from the interior, make the most of the hillside, rural walks, and acres of scenery located directly on your doorstep. Within a mile walk of the National Trust Chirk Castle and grounds, 2 miles to Llangollen town centre to look around the many shops set next to the River Dee.The Llangollen steam railway, the horseshoe waterfalls and Castell Dinas Brân are all local attractions worth visiting.The world heritage site of the Pontcysyllte aqueduct is also within close reach. Snowdonia National Park is less than 30miles away, where you can enjoy lots of scenic walks, and is perfect for a day out with the family.The Roman walled city of Chester is less than a 30 minute drive, where you can visit the Cathedral.

A part of Wales not to be missed.

    The place was exactly as described—peaceful, cozy, and surrounded by stunning views. Communication was excellent; the host provided timely responses to all my questions, which made the check-in process smooth and stress-free. The cottage was well-equipped, especially in the kitchen. It had all the cooking equipment I needed, which made it easy to prepare meals during my stay. Whether you're looking for a relaxing getaway or a comfortable base for exploring the area, this cottage is perfect. I would definitely stay here again!
