Situated along a quiet lane just 1 mile from Caerwys which is located within the Clwydian Mountain Range Area of Outstanding National Beauty, Donadea is a delightful 19th century detached holiday cottage. It combines quaint charm alongside all the home comforts one expects from a holiday home. Additional features such as free wi-fi and games console make this ideal for families with children. The cottage has its own garden and patio area but guests can also enjoy the owner’s grounds which include 3 acres of orchard, kitchen garden and formal gardens. With stunning views over the Clwyds which can be glimpsed from the full length window that presides over the staircase, it is the perfect rural escape.

Other activities available locally include golf and fishing or for the more adventurous, Bala Lake which is within an hour’s drive offers various water sports including sailing, kayaking and white water rafting. There are plenty of tea rooms, antique shops and farmers markets in the area and the craft and antique centre at Afonwen (2 miles) is worth a visit. The popular market town of Mold and Denbigh are both within 9 miles. Other places of interest within easy driving distance include Ruthin with its ruined castle (15 miles), Llangollen (24 miles), the Victorian seaside town of Llandudno (27 miles). Beach resorts including Talacre, Rhyl and Prestatyn are within a half-hour drive and Betws-y-Coed and Snowdonia National Park can be reached in just over an hour. Over the border into England, the historical city of Chester is just 30 minutes by car and Liverpool can be reached in 50 minutes. With so much to see and do in the area, Donadea cottage is the ideal base from which to explore what both sides of the Wales/England border has to offer. Beach 6 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 1 mile.

My family and I stayed here for a four night stay at end of October. The cottage is absolutely stunning and a great place to relax and unwind. The welcome received was nothing short of first class with hosts Wendy and Tony ensuring your stay is a fab with nothing too much trouble! Looking forward to staying here again very soon and can’t recommend highly enough. 😀

Had a great 4 nights at the cottage with my daughter. Very well equipped and in a lovely setting for rest and recuperation.
Wendy was great - she met us on arrival and we had spoken before over the phone to discuss Covid restrictions. We had a very quiet day on the Wednesday and she came round with cake and home grown raspberries/cream. There was a welcome pack of jam, Welsh cakes and eggs, and a fully frozen ice-cube tray in the cool box of the fridge - a nice extra, plus a pint of milk.
We hope to visit again.

We stayed at Donadea over August Bank Holiday and from even before our arrival the hosts were wonderfully heart warming and welcoming. We had a most wonderful stay, our kids (aged 10 and 8) loved the game consoles and absolutely adored Audrey the cat and not forgetting collecting the eggs from the chickens. The cottage is in an immaculate condition and the hosts have thought of all the guests needs for a relaxing stay. The pictures of the cottage setting were lovely and the reviews were all good but it doesn’t happen often where the reality is even better! Most wonderful stay, would most highly recommend and thank you to both Tony and Wendy for taking time out to show us around, advising us about the areas to visit and for the yummy cakes . We look forward to visiting again very soon.
