  • "We were warmly welcomed to Bryn Offa Cottage by Helen, and it proved to be a delightful base for our holiday."

    The accommodation was roomy, well-furnished and spotlessly clean. We were encouraged to enjoy the very pretty garden and summerhouse, which was a bonus. We also enjoyed the cake and other goodies provided. During the week we had good days out in Chester, Llandudno and Bodnant Gardens, and also visited St Winefride's Well, which was interesting.

    Despite being near the ameneties, it feels very secluded because of the extensive garden and hedges. The owners live next door and completely respect your privacy while also being there for anything you need.

  • "My partner and I stayed at Bryn Offa cottage during Easter weekend."

    The hosts Helen and Terry gave us a warm welcome, and it was lovely to arrive to fresh flowers, cake, chocolates and tea and coffee. There was a thoughtful Easter card as well. There was already milk in the fridge and ice in the freezer which we found useful. No need to rush off to the shop straight away, though Lidl and Tesco were just conveniently a short walk away. The cottage was immaculately clean and nicely decorated. All mod cons provided should you need them: washing machine, iron and ironing board. The garden was beautiful and spacious and it was a lovely place to relax listening to the birdsong. We did have a private patio but we were welcome to sit in any part of the garden we liked. Helen kindly gave us keys to the summerhouse at night when it was cold. We found Helen and Terry to be kind without being imposing. We got guidance on local attractions, walking routes and recommendations on places to eat. The selection of leaflets in the cottage was also helpful. We had a lovely stay and we both recommend this cottage for a relaxing break. Great location for the local attractions and others just a short drive away.

    Helen and Terry are great hosts nothing to much trouble for them. They even left a cake 'chocolates ,tea coffee,and milk for us. Felt like they had been friends for years. The cottage is surrounded by beautiful gardens where you can sit and relax after a day out visiting the local attractions. The cottage is homely and is well equipped with everything you would need for your holiday. Holywell town centre is like a lot of places where the shops are closing but they have some good eating out places. Holywell has even a Jamaican restaurant. About 30 mins drive away you can arrive at rhyl ..and various other local villages so for us the cottage was ideal situated. As I like making things we managed to go to a massive unit just to look around the fabrics of upholstery and dressmaking . a week was not long enough for us to visit the various places in north wales. Misty waters restaurant pub do a lovely sunday carvery and they have a lovely outdoor seating which will be ideal in the sunny weather. Big gardens centre Jacksons is just down the road from holywell . As you can see we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and you could not get better hosts than Helen and Terry who will make you very welcome. Highly recommended..

The property

Settled in the heart of Holywell, North Wales is this charming, single-storey cottage of Bryn Offa Cottage.

The perfect base for a couple wanting a bit of everything during their stay, the cottage is within reach of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and the coast, along with the bustling city of Chester!

Upon arrival, you'll be pleased to find a parking space on the shared driveway, making unloading your things an easy task.

Head inside to be welcomed by a pleasant kitchen/diner, where the chef of the pair can fix up a delectable meal with one of the integrated appliances; the space additionally hosts a washing machine, for added convenience.

After tucking into a tasty meal for two, head over to the delightful sitting room, where plush seating awaits in front of the TV and the crackling gas fire.

You can also unwind in front of the TV from the comfort of the double bed in the bedroom, which also offers access to a handy en-suite shower room.

Concluding the property's interiors is a handy cloakroom, ideal for when you're getting ready in the morning!

The property shares a charming garden with the owner, however, if you'd prefer a bit more privacy, be sure to make the most of your own enclosed patio, where outdoor seating can be used for alfresco dinners.

Get to know your surroundings and explore Holywell, a market town with so much to offer, including the delights of Greenfield Valley Heritage Park, Pen Y Maes Woods and St Winefride's Well Shrine; the town also offers plenty of eateries and shops, so you'll be well-catered to.

Why not venture to Mold, home to the iconic Gladfryn Restaurant, as well as the wonders of its medieval castle and the Loggerheads Country Park.

For a day by the coast, head to Prestatyn, where you can unwind on the beaches of Ffrith and Prestatyn, as well as exploring the enchanting Rhaedr Dyserth Waterfall and hiking across Graig Fawr.

For more coastal fun, Llandudno, Rhyl and Rhos on Sea also aren't far away, offering attractions for both to enjoy.

A romantic break to remember awaits at Bryn Offa Cottage.

The market town of Holywell in North Wales takes its name from the town’s most famous attraction, the 7th century St Winefride’s Well, one of the Seven Wonders of Wales. Holywell boasts over 60 listed buildings, with a variety of late Georgian and Victorian buildings on offer, along with a pedestrianised shopping centre, pubs, restaurants and an open-air market every Thursday. Just one mile away are the 12th century ruins of Basingwerk Abbey within the grounds of the Greenfield Valley Heritage Park, with its museum. There are many lovely walking routes in the area, including the open common area at Halkyn Mountain, Pennant Way, Offa’s Dyke and The Welsh Coastal Path. Within driving distance is the pretty Market town of Mold, which holds an outdoor market on a Wednesday and Saturday. The historic city of Chester, with its famous Rows, Roman Walls, racecourse, zoo, shops and restaurants is just over the border in England. The beautiful Welsh Coast is easily reached with the little seaside village and beach of Talacre only a short drive away. Prestatyn, Rhyl, and of course Llandudno are also easily accessible, together with the majestic mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia).
