Guests say

Rose Hill is a well-received cottage in Holywell, praised for its tasteful decoration, immaculate presentation, and comprehensive amenities. It offers a convenient location for coastal walks, shopping, and visiting attractions like Chester Zoo. The property is described as cosy, well-equipped, and providing a 'home from home' experience. While most reviews are positive, one mentions cleanliness concerns, but this seems an outlier.

The majority of guests found the cottage very clean and well-kept, with only a single review citing cleanliness issues. This suggests that the property is generally maintained to a high standard.

The location is highly regarded for its proximity to local shops, coastal walks, and attractions like Chester Zoo. Its position in the town and ease of access to various sites make it an ideal base for exploring.

Guests consistently mention the cosy beds, high-quality soft furnishings, and the warm, comfortable atmosphere of the cottage, indicating a very comfortable stay.

The property is celebrated for being well-equipped and providing everything needed for a stay. However, a suggestion for an additional toilet and the absence of a corkscrew indicate room for improvement.

Several reviews mention a welcome pack and other thoughtful touches, such as dog treats and a well-stocked kitchen, which contribute to a pleasant stay. While these gifts are appreciated, they are subject to availability and not guaranteed.

About this property

Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in the town of Holywell, Flintshire is this delightful bungalow, Rose Hill. Offering a stylish décor and a spacious garden perfect for the summer months, while being within walking distance from local amenities. Close to Llandudno, as well as Angel Bay where a colony of grey seals can be seen throughout the year, and Dyserth waterfall, Rose Hill offers an ideal base for a group of friends or a family to discover this peaceful area of North Wales. Arriving at the bungalow, the hallway welcomes you in to kick off your shoes and make your way through the property. Sink into the sofa to watch the Smart TV with your loved ones after a long day of discovering the local area. From here gather to eat your dinner at the dining table as you catch up on the day's events. Your meals can be rustled up in the kitchen, where you will find a Range cooker and a handy dishwasher to assist with the cleaning up. After an adventurous day out, retire to the bedrooms for some well-earned rest; each bedroom has plenty of storage for your belongings and you will find two king-sizes and a twin, and wake up to views of a windmill from the rear of the house. Guests will also benefit from a family bathroom with a p-shaped bath perfect for soaking your muscles in, along with a shower over, a basin and a WC. Outside, the property hosts two gardens; the first is a multilevel lawn with lovely views over the town. The rear garden boasts more fantastic views from an elevated position; the enclosed multilevel garden offers 2 patio areas, one with a bench and the other has a large dining table, 6 chairs and a parasol for you to enjoy some Al Fresco dining during the warm Summer evening, as well as there being swinging chair at the top level, and lawned areas cascading down, the ideal spot to savour your morning cup of tea. For things to do while you're at the dwelling, head out to St. Winefride's Well, one of the Seven Wonders of Wales, located less than a mile from the doorstep of the bungalow. For a spot of history throughout your stay, visit the Greenfield Valley Heritage Park and discover 70 acres of woodland with historic architecture dotted around the site, as well as peaceful lakes and streams making for a tranquil day out. If you are looking for picture-perfect hikes, a scenic car journey will take you to Loggerheads Country Park, where you can explore the dense, wooded river valley. Also within easy reach is Moel Famau, the highest hill in the Clwydian Range, where you can stop for a cup of tea on the way back down. If sand and sea is more your style, the lively town of Prestatyn is reachable by car and offers plenty of shops, pubs, restaurants and cafés to fuel your day at the beach. Treat your group to a meal in one of the local eateries such as The Crooked Horn & Rae's restaurant, a gastropub with a delicious menu, Pennant Golf Club 2.8 miles away, Cheshire Oaks Outlet Village 19.3 miles or closer to your home away from home, you can pick up a takeaway from the town centre to enjoy back at the bungalow.

The market town of Holywell in North Wales takes its name from the town’s most famous attraction, the 7th century St Winefride’s Well, one of the Seven Wonders of Wales. Holywell boasts over 60 listed buildings, with a variety of late Georgian and Victorian buildings on offer, along with a pedestrianised shopping centre, pubs, restaurants and an open-air market every Thursday. Just one mile away are the 12th century ruins of Basingwerk Abbey within the grounds of the Greenfield Valley Heritage Park, with its museum. There are many lovely walking routes in the area, including the open common area at Halkyn Mountain, Pennant Way, Offa’s Dyke and The Welsh Coastal Path. Within driving distance is the pretty Market town of Mold, which holds an outdoor market on a Wednesday and Saturday. The historic city of Chester, with its famous Rows, Roman Walls, racecourse, zoo, shops and restaurants is just over the border in England. The beautiful Welsh Coast is easily reached with the little seaside village and beach of Talacre only a short drive away. Prestatyn, Rhyl, and of course Llandudno are also easily accessible, together with the majestic mountains of Snowdonia.

    Excellent furnishings and equipment. Lots of extras including a thoughtful welcome pack. All the garden furniture you could need. To be picky a tumble dryer would be good and there were a few cobwebs especially on the lamp shades, but these were nothing to worry about! The owner Sharon was very responsive when contacted. Would recommend to anyone who wants to holiday in this area. Thank you as we had a wonderful time in your holiday home.

  • Yehuda
