"We had a fantastic weekend stay at this cottage in Prestatyn and, overall, everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves."
The house itself is absolutely amazing, full of character, and provided the perfect setting for a great family getaway. There are, however, a few areas where we feel improvements could be made. The general cleanliness wasn’t quite up to the standard we expected. There was noticeable dust on top of picture frames and the four-poster bed, and some of the kitchen pots and utensils needed washing before use. We also found ourselves wiping down some of the kitchen surfaces and were glad we’d brought our own cleaning supplies. Outside, there was a significant amount of duck droppings around the property which appeared to have been there for some time and would benefit from a thorough clean or jet wash. The outdoor furniture was still packed away when we arrived, which meant we weren’t able to make use of the outdoor space as much as we would have liked. The windows and exterior areas generally could do with a refresh to help the property look its best for arriving guests. One additional suggestion concerns the exit from the car park. Visibility when pulling out onto the road is quite limited due to the bend, and a roadside mirror positioned on the nearby tree or opposite side could greatly improve safety for both guests and passing traffic. Despite these points, none of the issues spoiled our stay. We had a wonderful weekend, made some great memories, and would still recommend the property. With a little more attention to cleanliness and maintenance, it could be truly exceptional. If you require any photos to back up my review please do not hesitate to contact me. If it was my property I would like to know. Beautiful property with smashing views ❤️

Views were stunning and the house was amazing! Gorgeous beds and bedding! Bathrooms were lovely! Could have stayed another week! The pub down the road was really good as well! But make sure you book as it was really busy! Prestatyn beach was lovely as well! Really gorgeous holiday. Thank you!

"We had a great time at Windyridge."
We were two families with four young teenagers between us. The kitchen was a great place for everyone to be together in the evenings around the big table and there was plenty of space to cook when it was full of people. The glass wall/door overlooking the garden is really appealing because it maximises the views and makes you feel like you're still by the firepit even when it's just decided to rain! Peaceful location, but Prestatyn is only 10 minutes in the car. We also had an ASDA delivery and takeaway without a problem - although make sure you put plenty of details on the location to help the driver. Comfy beds, good showers, enough storage. We would definitely recommend.

"Had trouble finding the cottage following the directions given by Sykes upon arrival though we were impressed by the cottage it's lovely but it wasn't the cleanest not sure if it was because it was a last minute booking and they hadn't managed to clean it prior ,found stains on some of the bedding ,rubbish from previous occupants piling up outside but owner got some of it removed quickly , some of the crockery had chips in it also , plus side the views are stunning where you can watch a fantastic sunset ."
Didn't go to the pub in the village as we were told it wasn't dog friendly but could sit outside in the smokers hut if we wanted but that's no reflection on the cottage
Thank you very much for your feedback. I’m really pleased to hear you enjoyed the cottage and the beautiful views. I did want to clarify a couple of points. Full directions were provided before your arrival, including the what3words location, and my phone number was also included so you could have called if you were having trouble finding the cottage. I’m always happy to help guests who get a little lost on the way. Regarding the issues you mentioned inside the property, I would have been able to put things right during your stay if they had been reported at the time. My cleaners regularly check the crockery and did not find any problems during their clean, but it’s something that can be easy to miss. Thank you for pointing it out — they will continue to keep an eye on it. I’m glad I was able to get the rubbish outside sorted quickly once I was made aware. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts. I’m pleased you were able to enjoy the sunsets — they really are something special. Property Owner

"We stayed at Windy Ridge for three nights over New Year and had a lovely break."
The house is cosy with very comfortable beds and plenty of space, making it great for families. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches like the New Year’s Eve decorations and the Christmas décor, which made it feel extra cosy. The views are beautiful, and we’d love to return in the summer to enjoy the outdoor space and firepit. The master bedroom with en suite is stunning, and the owners have done an amazing job renovating the property to a very high standard while keeping its original charm. We would definitely return and 100% recommend.
thank you for your lovely feedback, we are thrilled to hear you had a good New Year arlt Windyridge! We look forward to welcoming you back one day to North Wales! Property Owner

"We had a wonderful stay at Windyridge Cottage for my sons 30th birthday family celebration."
Nothing was too much trouble for the owner, they were very responsive to all our queries before our stay. Cottage is wonderful, very clean, spacious and perfect blend of modern and traditional. All rooms decorated to a high standard. Wonderful views overlooking the duck pond, it was very relaxing just sitting with a book, looking out and enjoying the view. Very cosy log fire in living room, the cottage is very well equipped and had absolutely everything we needed for a perfect stay. Walking distance to local pub and lots of lovely walks on the doorstep. Can't recommend this cottage enough for a peaceful and relaxing break, we will definitely be back!
