  • "Hendre is spacious, very comfortable & well equipped, a really lovely place to be & a pleasure to come back to after a day out."

    It’s very peaceful with lovely views, particularly from the main upstairs bedroom, looking across to Moel Famau which we walked up on a warm, sunny day. The owners are lovely, on hand next door if needed and the welcome tray included a fantastic assortment of cakes & a bottle of wine. A real home from home & definitely recommended

  • "We spent the week here and honestly felt like home, beautifully decorated and owner has thought of everything to make our stay perfect."

    Could not fault anything, we were a family of 5 so kids slept upstairs and had lots of space for themselves. We stayed downstairs and again lots of space, nice having two bathrooms. Ideal place if you want peace and quiet. Kids loved the welcome pack of cakes and brownies and our youngest especially loved Neddy and giving him carrots everyday. We will hopefully be back again in the future.

    The house had everything we needed. We arrived and everything looked so welcoming, there was also a tray with cakes, coffee and tea, box of chocolates and Milk in the fridge, we really enjoyed eating all of it! Our daughters with their husbands and Grandchildren enjoyed staying with us there so much.The highlight for our granddaughter was of course “Neddy” the pony and we all playing and sitting in the garden. We had lovely weather and the house is in good distance for lovely days out! Views from the house and area around are stunning! We had an absolutely lovely holiday and would definitely recommend this lovely holiday home! Gerallt and Ros thank you for everything , also for the cot and high chair.

    Quiet and peaceful. A real home away from home and every consideration thought about and provided to make for a relaxing stay. Made great friends with the Shetland pony and the rabbit family in the paddock ! Highly recommended

  • "From the moment we arrived we knew it was the right decision and then stepping through the door just confirmed it."

    There was a welcome tray of cakes and chocolates, a beautiful lounge diner with reclining sofas and a huge log burner. The kitchen has everything you need, and a utility with a washer and dryer. On the ground floor is a beautiful double bedroom and wet room. Upstairs and other two bedrooms and a bathroom. Everything has been well thought out, beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. The garden wraps around with plenty of outdoor seating and a little summerhouse with furniture, the only thing missing was the barbeque. We enjoyed the peace and tranquility and the far reaching views. Our morning welcome from Neddy, the Shetland, was lovely. Would we go again ... Yes! Yes! Yes! An absolutely 5* property.

  • "Nestled in a serene setting, my three-week stay at The Hendre was an absolute delight."

    From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warmth and charm. The cottage boasts a cozy ambiance, adorned with tasteful decor that adds a touch of elegance to its rustic charm. The Hendre offers a thoughtful array of amenities that cater to every need, ensuring a comfortable stay. From the well-equipped kitchen to the impeccably clean facilities, it's evident that attention to detail is paramount here. What truly stood out during my time at The Hendre was the tranquil atmosphere of its location.The hospitality of the host was exceptional, with a seamless check-in process and a warm welcome that included delightful homemade cakes and milk in the fridge. In conclusion, The Hendre offers a perfect blend of comfort, tranquility, and hospitality.

  • "A bit delayed in leaving feedback as our stay was end of October 2023 but had a wonderful time here."

    Was cosy indoors with log burner on whilst stormy weather outside. Lovely well equipped cottage. Fab welcome tray, milk in fridge, wine and ground coffee and cafetière which was a lovely surprise. Whilst the location feels off the beaten track it did not take too long to get to local towns. There’s fresh eggs close by and Llaethdy Llwyn Banc Dairy to get ice cream fresh (from the farm) milk vending and milkshakes close by. Would have been nice to have had the ability to get catchup tv (one of our party stayed home a couple of days and likes Netflix) and we didn’t think to take our firestick with us. Would definitely recommend. Not too far from Chester Zoo either.

Plenty of towels and a washing machine and dryer - we honestly wanted for nothing - everything you need is provided The pony in the adjoining field must be the most photographed horse in Wales - our granddaughter was taking selfies with him! There is a pub/restaurant - The Drovers Arms a very short drive away which I recommend.

    Photos don't do it justice. We've stayed in many holiday homes and this was by far the best. Spotless, cosy, extremely well equipped. The cottage is like a tardis, so spacious and all the furniture, bedding etc was very high quality. The bathrooms are beautiful, like a high end hotel. We stayed with our two sons who loves feeding the pony. Although in a very rural location it's only a few minutes to wonderful local pubs and shops in Ruthin. Already booked again for next year. Perfect.

The accommodation was equipped to a very high standard and having a log burner was the icing on the cake. We had a lovely Shetland pony in the cottage grounds and the owners dogs were friendly and well behaved. The owners went above and beyond what is required providing us with a welcome tray, home bakes and fresh fruit. Ros also popped round with extra logs and a bottle of wine when the weather turned colder and asked were we okay. What a star.
