About this property
Caerwys 3.4 miles / Holywell 3.5 miles / Mold 9 miles. Ash Farm Cottage is an attractive annexe situated in the rural village of Lixwm in the lovely county of Flintshire, Wales. With its picture-perfect surroundings and a delightful interior with charming exposed beams, this dwelling is the perfect place to escape on a romantic retreat to the luscious green countryside of Wales. Enter through the front door and into the handy utility room where you can kick off your boots after an exhilarating walk and put on a quick load of washing, so you won't have to worry about chores upon your return home. Here, you will also find a handy cloakroom with hand basin and WC. Make your way into the kitted-out kitchen and let the kettle boil as you prepare a tasty sandwich on the pretty granite worktops, before taking a seat at the dining table and flicking on the TV for some background noise as you map out your adventures for the days to come. Retire to the sitting room and snuggle on the sofa whilst your other half starts up the electric fire and finds a captivating movie for the both of you to enjoy on the flat-screen TV; the sitting room is home to a corner sofa doubling up as a sofa bed for flexible sleeping arrangements. Spend the evening laughing with one another as you play board games and work as a team in the kitchen to whip up a meal for two, whilst cracking open a bottle of wine and toasting to precious moments spent together. Climb the staircase to the first floor to discover a tranquil bathroom to freshen up with a shower or while away the hour with a soak in the corner bath. Wander through to the double bedroom to select an outfit from the spacious fitted wardrobes, before sitting at the dressing table and taking your time to get ready for a wonderful evening of wining and dining in one of the local village pubs. Make the most of the shared garden space on warmer days or light up the barbecue and dine alfresco on your private patio. Close to the border of the English county of Cheshire, there are many luscious walks for you to embark on during your stay. Take a leisurely stroll along Offas Dyke or Climb Moel Arthur Hill Fort, admiring the outstanding scenery along the way. Hop in the car for a short drive to one of the many neighbouring towns to explore before grabbing a bite to eat in one of the local eateries. You could then head on to Greenfield to view the medieval remains of Basingwerk Abbey and the stunning Greenfield Valley Heritage Park, before heading back to the annexe for a cosy night indoors. For an unforgettable break with a loved one, stay at Ash Farm Cottage.
The delightful town of Caerwys sits within the excitement of Flintshire county, Wales. With friendly cafes, a bustling pub and a handy local store, this welcoming community has you covered with all the essentials.

It had everything we needed. Well equipped kitchen. Gwenda was very friendly. Unfortunately the weather proved to be very windy, heavy rain and cold from Sunday to Thursday. (The weather wasn't anything like the forecast that was given). We even had hailstones. Gwenda willingly provided us with an extra duvet as the temperature dropped in the night to 7c. It was a perfect place to stay, very quiet and peaceful. (I had just lost my brother so needed the holiday to come to terms with my loss). Gwenda recommended local restaurants. These restaurants provided lovely meals. Great place.

Clean and well equipped with everything we needed including a welcome box of different treats, and delicious eggs which were layed by the owners chickens. Yummy! It was nice to see the friendly dogs running around. We would highly recommend this cottage.

The cottage was spotless and had everything you needed (bar a veg peeler!!), nice well equipt kitchen, comfy lounge with a big TV, outside patio and seating area, big bath and shower and plentiful hot water, large comfy bed and plenty of storage. The hosts (Gwenda and Phil) were lovely too, helping out with information and providing a welcome hamper full of local goodies. They even helped me arrange some flowers to be delivered and booked a table at the local (15 mins walk) pub and their daughter made us some yummy cakes for our anniversary (Thank you again..) so, all in all a lovely relaxing week and highly recommended
