"What a beautiful cottage, fantastic views."
So clean and brilliant shower.
The owner was so accommodating throughout our stay. What a treasure of a holiday home.
Only downfall is no wifi , although this is clearly stated by the owner before booking.
My little dog loved the peace too.

"Such a lovely cottage…we can confidently say it’s the nicest one we’ve stayed in."
There was everything that you could have needed and the view from the garden was phenomenal. Our hostess Helen was so nice and helpful….the little vase of fresh flowers was a lovely touch.

"My review is subjective, for us the bed was extremely uncomfortable which eventually led to us cutting the holiday short, the cottage is sandwiched between two very busy roads so the road noise is constant along with sirens and for two nights chain saws going until 11 pm as the highways agency did work."
The shower is very low pressured so doesn't ease the aches and pains away from a poor night's sleep. On the plus side the cottage has a beautiful ever changing view across fields, road and the river Dee estuary. It is warm and pleasant. The frying pan is well passed its use by date but the other facilities are ok. So all in all not a cottage we would return to.

"This is a tidy, well equipped and cosy cottage, ideal for a couple."
If you have a dog (we don't) the garden is enclosed so no problems there.The view across the Dee estuary to the Wirral ad beyond is absolutely astonishing! It changes every time you look out of the well situated patio doors or the private garden. The owner is close by should the need rise but otherwise leaves you to enjoy your time there.
The hamlet of Dolphin is very small, just the pub and a few houses but Holywell is a 5 minute drive away (actually, it is walkable for the fitter amongst us).It's ideally situated for travelling West or East to explore the seaside towns of North Wales or some of the inland towns such as Mold.
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at Dolphin Bach and would recommend it to a couple looking for a break away with space and time to relax.

"Lovely clean cosy and well equipped cottage in a secluded village."
Nice friendly welcome by Helen & Bramley (a friendly dog). Fabulous views of the bay and a good base for touring North Wales & Chester. Our dog loved the secure garden which had plenty of birds and the odd rabbit. Only downside was the sofa was too low, however this has not stopped us from booking again for next May.

A particular attraction of the cottage are the wonderful views but are these mentioned in your description of the property? These comments apart, it is a very appealing cosy country cottage, full of character and beautifully maintained. We look forward to returning.
