• "Cwmalis Hall is a perfect retreat for a larger family/friend group to spend time together."

  The kitchen facilities were all we needed & more. The house layout allows for 'all-together' time as well as opportunities to escape for a bit of quiet time. The garden is lovely & we loved watching the grey wagtails skimming the lawn for food to take back to the nest regularly. The hot tub was a welcome treat after a day of exploring. There is a large selection of board games & books, to suit all ages. Cwmalis Hall is near enough to Llangollen to nip out (in the car) to collect forgotten items for dinner - thank you Aldi! We stayed for a week & thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The location is great for getting out & about & exploring some beautiful parts of North Wales. We met Emma & were very grateful for her quick response to a plumbing issue (it's a beautiful old house, these things happen). If you're looking for a large, quirky & charming house in a great location, we would definitely recommend Cwmalis House & thank Emma for giving us this opportunity.

• "This large property was perfect for our stay in Llangollen."

  The property owner was extremely helpful and sent extra details about the property and more specific directions. She also came straight to the property when we had a query and she solved it immediately. The bedrooms were perfect with a range of double and single beds. The bathrooms were very clean and decorated beautifully. The hot tub was extremely inviting after white water rafting! I would recommend this property.

• "The property was lovely!"

  very cosy yet spacious, set in lovely grounds and great location to Llangolen town! stayed for a family weekend away - 60th, 2 x 30ths, 2 x 70ths etc. Was the perfect house for it, the hot tub was a great fetaure that we used a lot! Doorways a tad low so banged my head a few times, and oven not the most powerful, but there was an Aga-type stove that we figured out how to use. very happy with the stay and would definitely stay here again! thank you Emma!

• "Loved the house and we all had a great time."

  Warm, very well set out, nice feeling and obviously fairly recently refurbished. Could do with a dust pan and brush and some moaning about uncomfortable bed second from the drive end . Could do with a handle on wall by big hipbath ( its actually quite hard to get out! )The piano is not really up to scratch with 3 pianists on board but apart from that we all really enjoyed our stay.

  Thanks Hugh. So pleased to hear you loved your stay. And thanks for the feedback. I recently replaced all but two of the mattresses so I'll investigate. The piano seems to have taken quite a pounding from guests since it last had some TLC - I'll look into getting it back up to scratch... Property Owner

• "Thank you to Emma for a lovely stay!"

  The house was perfect for our university reunion weekend, the log burner made for warm and cosy friday evening of games in the living room. The large dining table was great for social eating and all the other facilities in the house were ideal. Hot tub was fantastic, great for relaxing in. Some of the group enjoyed a game of croquet on the lawn, and the sheep that wandered down off the fell enjoyed the grass too! Location was really good and allowed us to easily drive to visit the famous aquaduct and also go on a lovely 5 mile walk from there to the castle dinas along the panorama road - would reccommend. Excellent local pastry shop in Llaongollen and enjoyed a trip on the steam railway, including joining the driver in the engine! A fantastic weekend.

• "We were a family group of three generations and the property suited us perfectly."

  Enough space for everyone inside and outside without feeling on top of one another. The hot tub is a particular highlight and was well used by our group. The house is very comfortable and well equipped, though one bath/shower was out of action during our stay (which Emma had told us about) hence the slightly lower rating for facilities. Emma was a fab host and was on hand if we needed her but left us to enjoy our holiday. The house and gardens are so beautiful and we enjoyed the setting of the Dee valley. Emma also left us a very generous welcome pack- the ginger and chocolate biscuits were a particular hit! We walked to Llangollen twice - the more adventurous route is a beautiful hike over the surrounding hills (highly recommended) with a pub stop overlooking the river at the end. We also ate at the Three Eagles in Llangollen during our stay and can recommend. There is plenty to do in the area (mostly a car ride away) and Llangollen is a good base from which to explore. Note- if you have a dog be prepared for them to be on a lead outside as the garden isn’t enclosed and the house is on a very busy main road. The road also needs to be navigated to get to any dog walking areas (or a short car ride). The wooded area at the front of the house is very special- we didn’t have any small children in our group but i suspect kids would love this addition. We would definitely rebook Cwmalis Hall and have already recommended it to others. We hope to return!

• "We enjoyed our stay ,it was a good location ,with plenty of room for twelve people ."

  The one main concern was the lack of wardrobe space in the rooms. We were staying for a week and in most rooms only draws were provided no wardrobe space .We also felt the property could have been cleaned more thoroughly for example dust under the beds and a grill pan that had not been cleaned. I fully understand with a a quick turnaround things can get missed. The owners seem nice people and were very kind in sending my daughters keyboard she accidently left behind . A welcome pack was also provided which was a nice touch .

• "We were a 3-generation family group of 15 all ages from 12 upwards plus two dogs."

  We all thoroughly enjoyed our week in Cwmalis Hall- the feel of a genuine country house with room for everyone, a lovely warm kitchen and space to play, read, play the piano, prepare meals. The weather was brilliant and we had picnics outside and used the gardens , the games and the hot tub. Emma was available if needed and had left us a very generous welcome pack. Many interesting places to visit and walk without having to go too far so suited us all.

• "Wow what a fabulous cottage!"

  We stayed early March for my hen do and it was just perfect. 16 girls in 8 bedrooms and we fit comfortably all throughout the house. The large living room was great for entertaining. The kitchen was so well equipped and to an excellent standard too. There were plenty of bathrooms too. The hot tub was the extra touch- great for a spot of bubbly in the evening. Perfect location with a small drive into Llangollen, beautiful scenery and great restaurants. The owner was helpful, pleasant and very discreet when treating the hot tub, she even allowed the bridesmaids the sneakily dress up the cottage before arrival! We will most certainly be back!

• "We were absolutely delighted with all aspects of our stay at Cwmalis Hall."

  The location is great, kitchen well-equipped and more than enough space to chill out, dine and explore outside for our large party of 6 family groups. The self-contained lounge with a wall-mounted TV was ideal for entertaining the smaller children and the snug/dining/kitchen area worked well for spending time together as a full group without being in each other's pockets. There were more than enough mugs, glasses, plates etc to meet the capacity of the house, and the quality of appliances and kitchen equipment was much better than the average holiday let. The hot tub was straightforward to use and I can imagine the terrace area being very well-used in warmer months. The owner was very accommodating and helpful, with quick responses to email contact. There were sensible accommodations to ensure the property could remain Covid-safe should legislation or guidelines change. We did not need to use these at the time of our trip, but at the time of booking it was very reassuring that this had been thought through and that our holiday would go ahead in most cases, short of full lockdown and travel restrictions. All in all one of our best finds in almost 20 years of self-catering stays as a group.

  A few faults were experienced but quickly fixed. No wardrobes in some of the bedrooms meant there was no where to hang clothes. Emma Wass lovely and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

• "Beautiful house in a great location, even though on a busy road the noise was minimal."

  Location near to Llangollen was great aswell. Emma the owner was lovely very helpful letting us in early to put up decorations and calling to see us with her gorgeous dog to see if we had enjoyed ourselves. House was very clean, warm and had plenty of space for my daughters hen weekend.Loads of towels for the hot tub although we had our own aswell. The only couple of things I would say could be improved is the signage at the entrance as it is not very clear and as you are turning off quite a fast road it can be tricky, and the downstairs bedroom has no where to hang clothes. We are definately thinking of coming back next year. Thank you Emma

• "Lovely old house."

  Quirky mix of Welsh Farmhouse and Georgian. Lots of well equipped indoor space for 13 of us so we could all be together or separate as desired. Warm and cosy with endless hot water for showers etc. Plenty of room for dining indoors and out. Big lawn for games, we played football and had an inter-generational croquet match with the children; also adventure wooded area for exploring and bug hunts.Hot tub a big hit all round, nice and warm even in the evening and easy fits 4-6.Good parking and easy access to and from Llangollen. Parking in Llangollen is busy so go early or be prepared to walk from the outer parks such as the Eisteddfod site. Can recommend the Three Eagles for lunch, Pontcysyllte, Forest Coaster at Betws-y-Coed, and Plas Newydd. Welcoming and helpful owner. Worth a visit

• "What a magical place for a staycation!"

  The hall itself, Its facilities and the location were absolutely what we needed. There was plenty of space for us all to hide away from each other and chill in the way we most wanted. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the little woods to explore. My eldest son and daughter loved having a grand piano to play. From quiet morning "panads" in front of the Rayburn, to noisy family takeaway banquets at the enormous dining room table, Cwmalis Hall gave us the perfect holiday! Thank you. It was very much needed.
