“What a wonderful place to stay”

We have been to the cottage many times and have always found the cottage to be extremely clean and lovely, you could not wish for nicer owners who could not be more helpful and always goes the extra mile to make sure everything is okay for your stay but are not intrusive.

We have stayed in many cottage/houses over the years but we just love this wonderful cottage, it is in an ideal location and hopefully we will enjoy MANY MORE visits to our favorite place.

“This is an old, unusual, quirky property in a glorious location!”

10/10 for the location. We’ve fallen in love with canal life! It’s also handy being right next to The Telford Inn, with good food. The layout is on 3 Levels, with plenty of space in each of the rooms. The bedding was clean and overall facilities basic. A visitors book and tourist information would have been handy. Thankfully, the WiFi was strong enough to plan our own activities and find the nearest supermarket. Although we will definitely visit the area again, it will not be in this property. For a holiday property, it just wasn’t for us, due to a number of issues which have been passed on to Sykes and the owners.

“Quirky and cosy character cottage in a great location”

The cottage is very old with a quirky layout. It is in a fabulous location right on the tow path of the canal, just a few minutes walk from the famous aquaduct. I wouldn't say it is the height of luxury but it was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The beds were also very comfortable and has a good TV and wifi. The kitchen was well equipped and has a freezer and dishwasher. The pub is just a few steps away so that was well utilised by us and the dog. We will definitely stay here again as it was great to watch the boats. My only criticism was that there was no visitors handbook so we didn't know what to do with rubbish etc. Highly recommended.

“Very quirky cottage, in a brilliant position,not very good for people with disabilities because of steep stairs , next to pub ( almost on their car park) food there is good.”

Out of the door and you are on the canal bank.lovely canal boat trips or just sit and watch the others manageing the barges.great holiday but be wary of the steps.

“Excellent cottage located in an area we love.”

Friendly owners & bottle of wine much appreciated. Only, small problem was none working gas fire. However this won't affect future hirers as the owner had it replaced as we were leaving. Central heating very efficient which meant it didn't make life uncomfortable. Pub next door had lovely friendly owners and excellent food. The quality of their steak pie isn't exaggerated ! Can recommend this let to anyone - particularly if you like canals. Easy access to Llangollen and other interesting places. Will be returning.

“Great location, super boiler, provided all the hot water we needed for six people getting ready for a wedding, and two very muddy ones returning from Llandegla biking centre.”

Brilliant spot for stand up paddle boarding, and good pub food and welcoming staff next door in Telford arms. Cottage owners charming and very helpful.

“The cottage was warm and comfortable and the owners friendly and welcoming.”

There was a complimentary bottle of wine waiting for us too. We would certainly recommend this cottage and the area.

“It was a great place to stay”

The owners were very patient as we got seriously lost and mobile batteries on low. And very late as the Pub had shut. We were made very welcome by the owner and we had a very warm time in November. We hope to go there again very soon. Nothing to do with the Telford Inn literally next door where the Hosts were very friendly. Very relaxing place. And everything you need. The only traffic is the barges. Don't go sleepwalking as the canal is a few yards away from the front door.

“Fantastic place to stay.”

Phoned to arrange collection of keys and was told we could get in early and pick up the keys in the pub next door so we were able to drop off the luggage and get a nice cold cider to sit in the sun with as soon as we arrived. The owners popped in later with a bottle of wine which was a nice touch and checked that everything was ok. The cottage itself was lovely and cool even though the weather was the hottest few days of the year so made a nice place to retreat to when sitting watching the canal boats and walkers in this beautiful setting. The rooms in the cottage are all well equipped and comfortable, the shower is excellent with loads of power and kitchen contains everything you could imagine should you want to get cooking (but if you try the steak pie in the pub next door you wont want to bother cooking again). There are plenty of places to walk around the area direct from the front door although if you don't like heights the walk in the Chirk direction will get an extra mile or so added as you avoid the aqueduct which is the main feature of the area although its well worth walking over it for the view alone. Although the cottage is next to a pub (well its virtually in the beer garden) there is no noise at all that can be heard inside the cottage which makes the pub a bonus as you can have food or drink whenever you want to relax, and if the beer gardens full its quite nice to step into your own garden and sit at your own table and chairs as the world passes by. Would I go back here.......I'm thinking of booking it next year as well.
