Gamekeepers Cottage is a private, spacious holiday rental with a much-appreciated hot tub. It's situated in a lovely location, offering a quiet and secluded getaway. While some guests have suggested minor improvements, the cottage's charm and the privacy it provides are consistently praised.
Cleanliness has been noted as an area for improvement, particularly in the bathroom and around the hot tub. Some guests mentioned the presence of cobwebs and mould, suggesting a need for more thorough cleaning.
The cottage is appreciated for its lovely and private location. However, some guests were disappointed with the lack of a garden for their pets, and the decking area being in permanent shade.
The cottage is generally seen as comfortable, but some guests found the bed small and noted a lack of wardrobe space for four people. The slow toilet refill was also a minor inconvenience.
Facilities are adequate with a highlight being the private hot tub. However, guests reported issues such as a missing washing machine, damaged decking, and the hot tub water turning green. These indicate a need for better maintenance.
There is no mention of gifts or extra thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

The city offers delightful riverside parkland and a children’s play area with picturesque river walks where you may see kingfishers, sparrow hawks and buzzards. St Asaph is home to a historic cathedral, dating back 1400 years in areas and holding the reputation of being the smallest, ancient cathedral in Britain. It is also renowned as the location where the Bible was translated into Welsh in the 16th century. In September, the city comes alive with the arrival of the North Wales International Music festival, which takes place across numerous locations, culminating for the last few years in a television finale, broadcast from the cathedral. St Asaph offers numerous amenities and activities, from traditional pubs, to gastronomic dining experiences, numerous craft and gift shops and local clubs offering a 9-hole golf course, horse riding, angling, and crown green bowling, as well as a thriving leisure centre and the Tweedmill Retail Outlet.

Just a few issues we found. No bin bags, washing up liquid or dishwasher tablets. The cottage needed a good clean as the bathroom was dirty, cobwebs everywhere throughout the cabin. A loud noise of rats running in the eaves of the cottage kept us up at nighttime. They couldnât get in the cabin but you can hear them in the loft and eaves.

Disappointed the âenclosed gardenâ was just decking for hot tub. No grass available for dog to run. Looking at pic 23 on site looks like grass in distance but this belongs to next door and gate is locked. No washing machine as advertised Small âking sized bedâ Hot tub grand. No where to hang damp towels. Position of cottage means decking in permanent shade. Nice and quiet.

There is no garden just a small enclosed decked area around the hot tub had to pay to take our dog to a dog park. The bed seemed very small and we used the two singles. Toilet took ages to refill after being flushed. A bit cob webby but nothing major. Cottage was nice if only it could have a small piece of the garden behind.
