About this property
The Longbarn is an award winning Grade II listed luxury home fully renovated and beautifully furnished inside and out to make the most of its position and the exceptional views of the beautiful Vale of Clwyd. Situated on an historic farm, the house is the ideal base to explore North Wales and for completing the northern end Offa's Dyke National Trail.
With the hills and valleys of the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the countryside in this part of the world is very special indeed. A stay at the Longbarn puts you right at the heart of this beautiful landscape. Staying on a working farm, you’ll enjoy all the benefits of being away from it all, with wildlife and walks on your doorstep, yet with all the amenities of Ruthin and other towns and places of interest within easy reach.
A winner of Best Project in Period Living Magazine, this property has a cosy, bright and stylish feel to it. Its spacious living area is filled with light and has its own wood burning stove, but when the weather is warm you can open the doors onto the patio and stroll out into your own private garden. The property is ideal for dog lovers too, as a separate utility room with underfloor heating is the perfect spot for them to dry off after a walk.
The well-equipped kitchen is a cook’s delight, and you’re welcome to use the Longbarn’s herb garden to add some special ingredients to your menu. You might choose to eat on the patio or in the garden room, a distinctive outdoor space with large dining table and rattan chairs to take in the lovely sunsets.

Longbarn is utterly beautiful, both in terms of design and views. Zoe was beyond helpful - we'll be back as soon as we can.

It was perfect in every way. Beautifully chosen furniture and glorious curtains, so much effort had been made for comfort and beauty. Very comfortable beds, well equipped, and plenty of space. It was idyllic added to which the location was so peaceful and charming, I loved watching the sheep and although we didn’t bring our dog, ( he has a leg injury so we left him with friends) the garden would have been ideal too. We were lucky with the weather, we enjoyed sitting on a really attractive wooden curved seat, for drinks together.
