"We stopped at the Three Pigeons Inn, in apartment Heather whilst visiting family."
And our stay was excellent, this amazing 17th century building was comfortable and quirky which we loved. It had everything we needed, comfy beds and everything was super clean. The owners couldn't do enough for you and had an amazing sense of humour which made us feel extremely welcome. We had a family meal which was excellent the whole family enjoyed it and even the kids the next day kept saying how good it was. Would definitely return if we're ever in the area.

"The property would benefit from some TLC."
New mattresses, worn and thin duvets, replace old scratchy towels, new crockery, a thorough clean and regrouting in the bathroom. Not big things but these updates would make a difference . Beds were uncomfortable, chipped plates, no washing up utensils or spare bin bags or tea towels ( most people want to keep a place clean and tidy for you?) and a vacuum cleaner in the front room ( hanging on the wall) that was full of last guests dirt as not emptied- didn’t look great. The biggest, most significant problem, however is the building work going on opposite the apartment. We were unaware of this when we booked. Woken up every weekday at 735am by builders. So noisy we couldn’t sit and talk on the shared balcony. Your view is machinery and builders! Owners / Skyes should make anyone booking aware of these works as it does affect your stay unless you like noise and early starts.

"Great apartment which was perfect for our family of 5."
Fabulous location, especially over a lovely country pub. The owner Nik’s wife is the chef who cooks the most amazing German food. Thank you for your hospitality Nik. Our week was great.

"The owners of the pub and accommodation have taken on a mammoth task in difficult times and are to be commended for doing so."
I found Nik very approachable, friendly and helpful throughout. The apartment was spacious for two, well equipped and clean (the sealant round the bath needs replacing though). The metal stairs to it could be a bit hazardous for older or less mobile people.

"We had a delightful stay at Heather; a wonderful place with everything we needed and gorgeous views (and breath-taking sunsets)."
Despite missing the instruction to ring in advance (so sorry) Nik was very kind and forgiving. It was a real pleasure not only to stay in the property within such a fantastic pub, but also to meet Nik, Julia and the family. Thank you for making our holiday one that we will remember!

"Wow what a stunning part of the country, views for miles!"
We had a lovely stay at Heather. It was lovely and quiet. We didn’t use the pub and we found it quite. The town of Ruthin is a short drive away which has everything you need. We did lots of days out, Chester Zoo, Rhyl, Conwy and everything was less than an hours drive away. The property it self was comfortable and had everything we needed for a week, the only thing it was lacking was oven dishes to cook evening meals. I bought a couple of small oven trays to use.

"We had a girly weekend for a birthday, the place was really nice, comfortable and the pub below was very welcoming, I would definitely recommend staying here again."
We have a great time, even though the chef had a week off so they wasn't doing food at the time. There is takeaways and other pubs doing good within a short distance.

"We absolutely loved our stay at the Heather apartment ."
It was a unique stay in a beautiful & historical building . The pub was stunning & friendly . We can’t wait to go back & sample the resteraunt delights after these latest Covid rules are over .
It was an amazing way to bring in the New Year on the balcony looking across the Welsh countryside . We would book to stay here again & would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a country stay with beautiful views . Having the pub underneath is a massive bonus & the owners where super friendly and the place was immaculate . We had such a lovely cozy relaxing stay . I want to take the oppurtunity to thank the owners and wish the the very best for 2022 . Three scouse girls had an amazing start to the new year . Well done the owners of the three pigeons and well done Sykes for making I so easy to book . Everything was so professional & Heather the apartment was brilliant . A true home from home .

"We had a lovely, quiet and restful week at Heather in October 2021."
We found the accomodation to be clean, well laid out and fantastic value for money. The pub downstairs is spacious yet cosy and the couple who own it are very friendly. Unfortunately no food was available whilst we were there due to staffing issues but that was OK. We found other places to eat and a great Indian place who delivered a really good meal.

"We had a lovely week at Graigfechan."
The apartment above The Three Pigeons was clean and comfortable, it also has a lovely balcony which is a little sun trap and overlooks the most amazing scenery, great for watching the glorious sunsets. A wonderfully peaceful area with fantastic walks close by.
The Three Pigeons is a lovely pub which serves very good, well cooked pub food.
All in all a great holiday!

"This accommodation is amazing!"
1. Beautiful location and views
2. Fantastic base to discover north Wales
3. Fully equipped - towels, bedding, tin foil, tea and coffee… you name it and it’s there. We are used to taking our own so this was great.
4. Lovely owners that are there if you need them.
5. Value for money - great price for high quality.
6. Pub/restaurant below… no noise and we have small children. The food smells amazing, but we didn’t get to eat there due to how busy we were.
Overall, book here and you won’t be disappointed. We are planning our return visit.

"Really nice, cosy apartment (Heathers), decent kitchen and bathroom, and good bedding and plenty of towels provided."
Despite this being a loft conversion with sloping roof/walls, it felt quite roomy for four of us (2 adults, 2 small kids) - plenty of space to move around. And the owners (and pub landlords) are friendly.
It's above a quiet village pub (the Three Pigeons Inn) and there was little noise once the apartment door was closed, despite the balcony being over the outdoor patio for the pub below. It has a slightly odd layout, with the bathroom and two bedrooms off the master bedroom - no corridor. And some of the sockets and skylight blinds are in the sloping roof area, so watch your head when accessing them!
We didn't eat at the pub, so can't comment on the food. The nearest place for grocery supplies is the Tesco supermarket 3 miles north in Ruthin. Would make a decent base to visit local towns (Llangollen is 12 miles south-south-east), the north wales coast, or even Snowdonia national park to the west.
The only issue we had was with the secondary fire exit that exits into the adjoining apartment - it's just a standard door (locked by an electronic release that is only opened when you smash the fire alarm glass) and really could do with being a more substantial acoustic door with full acoustic draught exclusion around it as the conversations/sounds from the adjoining room were quite audible.

We was met by Nick the owner he was very friendly and helpful insisted in carrying our heavy case up the steps to the apartment . The apartment was bright and airy and very clean the views from the balcony are absolutely stunning I loved watching the baby bunnies playing in the next field. Later we went down to the beer garden and met Julia Nicks wife she was also very friendly and chatty. We really enjoyed our break and yes we would return thankyou Angie & Steve
