About this property

A welcoming country house, part of which dates from the 17th century, set in just under 2 acres of grounds, situated in the small village of Bronygarth above the beautiful Glyn Ceiriog Valley.

Four of the bedrooms boast en-suite facilities, plus there are an additional three family bathrooms, one of which features a corner Jacuzzi bath. The large farmhouse-style kitchen has wooden floors, ceiling beams and an oil-fired Rayburn, making it the perfect place to prepare a celebratory dinner for the whole family. The galleried reception/dining room with sash windows and woodburning stove seats 26 people and the main sitting room has an inglenook fireplace and a woodburning stove, ideal for relaxing in front of a family film. But that is not all! There is the added benefit of a library, a conservatory and a games room with a full-size snooker table. Spend some time over breakfast on the decked area as you plan the day's activities, which is where you will also find the soothing hot tub, where you can relax in the evening as you relive your fun-filled days. The extensive grounds surround the house and consist of mature gardens, lawns, seating and a large brick-built barbecue. This beautiful area of Shropshire offers many walks and cycle routes with Offa's Dyke Path running close by. The cottage boasts magnificent views of Chirk Castle, a 14th century fortress owned by the National Trust, which sits across the valley. The more energetic amongst your party can walk to the castle along the historic Offa's Dyke path. Just a short drive away is the popular tourist town of Llangollen with a steam railway, a variety of watersports and the stunning Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, which is a World Heritage Site. With so much to see and do both at this wonderful cottage and in the surrounding area, a memory-filled holiday awaits!
