Spacious house well equipped
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jun 2024
The house is absolutely beautiful and surrounded by nature, and the check in process straightforward, with clear instructions for arriving at the property (try downloading a map in advance as there is no cell phone signal whatsoever in the area).
We were five adults (2 couples + single parent) and three children 3-4 years old. The children absolutely loved the place, immediately calling it their "holiday home" and not wanting to leave! The property has two beautiful double rooms and two twin rooms, so this was just enough for us (but ideally, I'd recommend up to two couples + up to 4 children and possibly a baby as there is a cot).
The area is stunning, and the house excellently located for going on day trips in and around northern Wales. Dutch Pancake house and water gardens are a short drive, and beautiful hikes within 20 min ride.
Cleanness generally good, but this aspect could be improved (for example, I found a teenage bra ! at the wardrobe of the room where me and my daughter were staying, and the extra duvets did not smell great... No dishwashing tablets provided despite there being a dishwasher, which is a bummer as you are of course required to return the property as clean as you found it... So do your shopping ahead of time). Design is stunning in most areas, bit scruffy in others. A noisy water pump goes off occasionally.
Property owner direct and "hands off," replied when needed but nothing beyond.
Overall, warmly recommended for couples and families!
