Pant Dafydd Goch

A beautiful property in a stunning location.

Perfect for an isolated getaway with a large group. Thank you so much for having us!

We booked this house as an extended family to attend a family wedding nearby and, unfortunately, we didn’t have a good stay for the below reasons: - Although stated that the house is secluded and that the drive down to the house is unmettled, we did not feel the description accurately described just how difficult it is to get to and from this house.

It is at least 15 minutes off of the main road on tiny, poorly surfaced, steep, unnamed roads. We needed to go in and out to various wedding events and were constantly hampered by things like impassable parts of the roads, meeting lorries with no passing places anywhere near, and sheep being herded down the road and blocking it for significant amounts of time. It took a driver two hours to ferry two car-loads of us to the wedding venue which was only 4.2 miles away, the latter party almost missing the ceremony. One of our party grounded their car (not a low car) on approach to the house and another got a puncture while not driving at a high speed - something mentioned by another reviewer also - which was very inconvenient when stuck in a remote location. The Chirk Castle route given in the instructions is usable but a long way round if wanting to go North or West. - The cattle grids you have to cross are also perilous-looking - old, bent and bowed. - There is no sound privacy between the first and ground floor bedrooms at the far left end of the house as the woodburner chimney goes up through a hole in the floor that is just open between the two rooms. The people in these rooms were waking each other up multiple times. - Not necessarily the owner’s fault but, very strangely, a crow came and knocked repeatedly on the windows each night of our stay at about 4.30am, waking everyone on that side of the house up until someone opened the window to scare it away. - The water flow in the bathroom above the kitchen is so bad that the shower turns completely off for periods during use and you have to stand there waiting for it to turn back on. - The house smells damp/musty or even of drains? in places, especially in the bedroom off of the kitchen and the double bedroom opposite the twin room, and it also feels it too. It isn’t nice to be inside the house. - Leading on from the above - despite the fact it was June, and not too cold outside, the heating was coming on constantly in the house because it was so cold and damp-feeling. The radiator in the bedroom off of the kitchen was noisy and came on and off all through the night, waking the occupants up. It’s better than being cold but most houses wouldn’t have required any heating to be on in the first place. - As mentioned in numerous other reviews, the cleaning was poor, both in terms of utensils and rooms. There were cobwebs and spiders that had clearly been there for a while throughout the rooms, in easy to reach places, and windows were dirty. - There was also an issue with moths inside the house. - It wasn’t possible to securely lock the house as at least one external door (the door from the bedroom off of the kitchen) didn’t lock and was broken, so that was accessible from someone outside at all times. - The stairs upstairs from the kitchen are slippy and thin and a perfectly able 31-year old in our party who was wearing shoes and walking normally fell down them. - There is no downstairs toilet which is inconvenient but honestly the least of the issues. I could go into more tiny details but overall it just feels like no one cares about upkeeping this house nicely. We absolutely would not stay here again. The only good thing about it is the view. We didn’t inform the owners during our stay, firstly because we were busy with going to and fro, preparing for and attending wedding events, and secondly because there were so many issues that we didn’t feel they could possibly do anything in the timeframe to get the house to a state that we would have considered satisfactory - some issues require a huge overhaul of the house honestly. As other reviews have said, the owners must know about these issues as they are plain to see and mentioned by multiple guests, so this review acts more as additional information to those contemplating booking.

An amazing place for a large group of people to get together.

We celebrated my sons 30th birthday this weekend at the farmhouse. It was just perfect in the middle of nowhere with very pretty views and only sheep and cows as your neighbours. I would recommend booking the other property to make it private just for your part as the 2 properties are very close together. We had plenty of space for everyone to eat ,drink ,play outdoor games, eat outdoors and have a get together in the bar area where we put on our own pub quiz. Everyone who went absolutely loved it. I would definitely be back for another large family/group gathering it was just perfect . Keri was very warm and welcoming and the contact prior to arrival was fantastic

What a fabulous place pant dafydd goch is, situated in a beautiful setting away from everything.

Plenty of birds and wildlife to see from the very large terrace that looks out over fields and hills. It was the perfect place for our family of 15, plenty of room to do your own thing, the games room with darts and pool table were an added bonus. A perfect place to unwind and relax, fantastic holiday.

We were a multi generation family group of 10 adults and 5 children (18 months to 90 years).

The children were delighted with the huge choice of games and toys. Both ground floor bedrooms used by adults without children but the property would benefit from the larger ground floor room having its own en suite. We were very lucky with weather and enjoyed the gardens and sky watching. The drive down into Llagollen was steep but worthwhile. Large lounge fitted everyone, fires cosy, heating great. The games room wonderful for overspill! We spent some time collecting pan lids/ pots /cutlery etc that had been used and put away in the smaller kitchen and we would certainly have put a second dishwasher to good use with so many of us. The owner was really helpful and easy to contact and we will return. The propery is charming and in a fabulous location .Thank you.

Wonderful cottage, very spacious and clean and a very easy check in.

Great facilities, had a wonderful weekend with a party of 16. I would 100% recommend this listing and would go again.

Beautiful location perfect for my birthday family occasion could not fault it

The property is lovely and was perfect to host my 50th birthday weekend with family and friends.

The property owners were helpful and friendly. They put the heating on several hours before we were due to check in so the house was lovely and warm when we arrived. They also accommodated a later checkout. The property would benefit from a thorough clean throughout (under beds, kitchen cupboards), but overall we were pleased with the property and would recommend this property.

A beautiful property, in an amazing location.

Bedrooms, bathrooms and bedrooms were stunning! The kitchen was well stocked and lots of room for us all, and the bedding was beautifully clean. Outside needs some updating for the summer, and a deep clean would help. However, we had an amazing time, we'll never forget it! Thank you! Xx☺️☺️

Property was very well managed and we had an amazing stay.

We will cherish the time well spent. Amenities within the facility had been spot on. Kudos to owners of the property.

A beautiful house in a beautiful location that was big enough to accommodate our large family gathering, comfortably.

It worked really well and we all enjoyed our stay. We also had great weather so could enjoy the outside areas, too. Hosts were kind and responsive. There are definitely some maintenance needs and the kitchen would benefit from some attention re. layout and position of things so that it is more practical, especially when there are so many people to work around. The bathroom above the kitchen in the barn end serves 6 people, however, the water flow in both the tap and shower there are so low they aren’t really usable. I slept in the end bedroom in the barn and wished they’d been carpets or rugs on the floor boards to sound proof my room and the one below to offer more privacy (It’s not possible to talk or whisper without hearing every word.) The pool table and darts were perfect for our group only the cue-tips and darts need fixing/replacing. In the kitchen there’s one small toaster for 15+ guests, which only toasts one side of the bread. Several saucepans/pots in the cupboard were dirty on arrival. Addressing these fixables would make this is a 10/10 house and one that we’d be happy to come back to.

Internet router played up quite a lot in the living room, meaning TV was blank for quite a while.

We absolutely loved our stay!

The location is stunning, the character of the property and the amount of space is more than sufficient for the amount it sleeps. Would recommend to anyone.

We had a wonderful stay.

Accommodation was perfect plenty of space for 14 of us and 2 dogs . We will love to come back. What we called the pub area was brilliant pool table a plus x

We stayed a long weekend and it was fabulous!

We were a group made up of six families and everything was great. Ample of space so we never felt on top of each other and the lay out made it so everyone had their quiet time if needed. We made full use of the games rooms and the owners were very helpful with any query we had. Would recommend

A great property in a lovely location with amazing views although just a little too remote.

Had a smashing holiday with family to make memories.

The awful weather did not spoil the weekend.

Owners kept us updated of any changes and made allowances to arrival and Leaving times to ensure our safety. Farm house is spacious and well stocked with everything needed for a lovely weekend. Once again thanks.

The trip was for a friend's 60th birthday and she had a lovely time staying in the main bedroom with balcony and lovely views of the snow covered hills.

We were attracted by games facilities provided, but beware there were no tips on the pool queues so impossible to play properly and no useable darts, luckily someone brought some with us. The biggest issue for us was the track to the house. We were warned with the snow that it may be difficult to leave up the hill until the snow thawed (which we accepted), but 2 of our cars suffered tyre damage. When the snow thawed we could see that this was caused by the slates with sharp edges that had been layed on the track. The owners of the house were not interested in compensating us for this damage, though of course if we had damaged the house then we would have to pay them!

Fabulous holiday home.

Great location, the owner was really helpful with directions, there was a welcome basket, the house was clean for when we arrived. It had everything we needed and we loved every minute. Thanks again!!

I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage!

The place was exactly as described—peaceful, cozy, and surrounded by stunning views. Communication was excellent; the host provided timely responses to all my questions, which made the check-in process smooth and stress-free. The cottage was well-equipped, especially in the kitchen. It had all the cooking equipment I needed, which made it easy to prepare meals during my stay. Whether you're looking for a relaxing getaway or a comfortable base for exploring the area, this cottage is perfect. I would definitely stay here again!

We had a great time at the cottage as it was able to accommodate all of our family !

There was an issue with one of our beds it was really noisy when we gott into it and it felt like it was going to give way so it might be worth checking it out !

Great property and location, we were a group of 15 adults and teens.

The house is full of character and set in beautiful surroundings. Also, very helpful owner thanks.

The property location is peaceful and is surrounded by beautiful views of rural countryside, which is outstanding.

The house is comfortable and great for large groups and families. Unfortunately, the facilities let it done and leads to the impression of the house being marketed at top price range, but reality does not quite live upto expectation. We only had use of 2 out of 4 showers and unable to use dishwashers - 1 in main kitchen was broken and out of action, 2nd dishwasher is at the other end of the house and too far away to use practically. The water supply was intermittment at one end of the house due to boiler fault and water cold in main kitchen on and off. The cold water issue did get sorted by phoning the owners and we followed their advice on how to rectify problem but after reading visitors comments book, it was clear that the water supply and heat was a longer standing issue at the property. Unfortunately, we also noticed a rodent in the house, late one evening, and heard movement above the main kitchen floorboards.

Had an absolute blast here with all the family, we made some amazing memories with all the grandkids ,they loved it, we were very lucky with the weather.

The games room was great for us all. we had plenty of space and the views were stunning. My only complaint if is it a complaint was finding the place, maybe something like “what 3 words” would be ideal for future guests and the road down to the house isn’t ideal if you have a really small car, other than that it was great. On the last night we ate out at the Castle Bistro in Chirk and the food was delicious and large portions

Very disappointed with cleanliness of the cottage in need of a very deep clean especially in kitchen area.

. The review that Mark put on in April I totally agree with.. Too many complaints to mention.. Could be so lovely if maintained better inside and out.. Such beautiful views, we had a week of excellent weather but not very nice outdoor furniture to sit on.. Never given a bad review but sorry nothing really good to say about it.. Did contact owner and and have been in touch with sykes.. Very glad to get home.. If this review means that things will improve and people who book this cottage get a good holiday then I will have achieved something and it will be worth it.. But all to late for me and my family..

Well what can I say - this place is perfect & 17 of us & a Dog have all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

The views are beautiful & gardens well kept. The house itself is huge, so even though there was 18 of us, it never felt cramped. Had a lovely homely feel too & both the pool table & dart board were put to good use. Everything was clean & we had a lovely welcome hamper on arrival. The main kitchen had everything we needed throughout our stay & we all loved being able to sit comfortably together around the huge table for our breakfast & evening meals. The only thing I will say is that a lot of the rooms are on different levels so something to consider if someone in your party isn’t good with steps & the step into the living room from the front door could do with marking out as pretty much everyone tripped up it at some point during our stay as it’s the same colour as the floor. On saying that there is also 2 ground floor bedrooms with we found brilliant especially as we had a dog with us! The property owners which we met on arrival and departure were so lovely and they had the cutest of dogs which loved to play ball which we happily obliged in chucking :0) (we only saw the dog on arrival and departure) Yes the road to the property is tricky but manageable. It’s absolutely bursting with character we really did love both the location and the property and would highly recommend a stay. Only downside, no one wanted to leave and we all wished we had stayed longer! Amazing - Thank you ♥️

We absolutely loved our long weekend at Pant Dafydd Goch cottage!

We were a group of friends (mostly couples) come together to celebrate my 50th birthday. The bedrooms were delightful, full of character and we especially loved all the roll-top baths (plenty of boiling hot water!) We enjoyed dining around the large kitchen table, in fact we had a Tudor style banquet dressed in tudor costumes on one day (my birthday request) It was really handy having 2 fully stocked kitchens with such a large group. The communal lounge in the centre of the house became our favourite space, and has a huge log burner that made our evening time very cosy. We were lucky with the weather and spent one day playing KUBB on the lawn while sipping cocktails on the patio. There's a chiminea fire pit that we all sat round one evening, admiring the stars. But the best thing about the cottage is its location- it's so peaceful and relaxing, with just the birds and the sheep and cows for company and a great view from the patio/ garden over the hillside. We loved it so much, we are planning to return. It's a treasure of a cottage, we didn't want to leave.

Plenty of hot water - which was just as well.

On arrival the property was grubby (dirty floors and surfaces, especially in the kitchen, where they were both dirty and sticky. The kitchen table had dried food stuck in the large gaps between the table top planks. Cutlery was dirty and some baking trays were stored away covered in grease. We didn’t see any live mice, but evidence of their presence was beneath and around the fridge. If one had died, that would explain the smell around the bin area in the kitchen. The owners information pack states that they do not clean cutlery and utensils - but given what we found, other areas of basic cleaning and building repair were also lacking. A substantial amount of time and money was spent in cleaning the house and getting it to a level hopefully suitable for the group ranging from 4weeks, to 93years. Unfortunately, we weren’t quick enough, of the 15 in the group, 14 went down with stomach bugs… The illnesses meant we only left the property from Sunday onwards to go shopping for cleaning and medical supplies. The bedroom off the kitchen has a large area of black mould on the wall. The settees are generally grubby, old and not of a good standard. Some of the kitchen chairs need to be replaced, which I was told had been noted in a previous review (November?). Numerous double glazed units are blown, with condensation and lime scale inside (so not a recent occurrence). Some windows cannot be opened - the retaining stays are missing, so the unit would be swinging in the wind. Some external doors are ill fitting, with clear gaps, causing draughts and water ingress. There is a trip hazard (step) in the middle of one of the upstairs bedrooms. It is carpeted, but without any contrast. As a result, my mother had a fall. More could be said about the place, but you should have got the picture by now. We did not contact the owners about what we found - apart from possibly the cutlery and baking trays, all of the issues were clearly visible. Our opinion was the state of the property and contents were of an acceptable standard and presentation to the owners. In any case, they would not have been able to rectify dirty settees, windows etc. and our expectation about getting someone else to clean surfaces etc, was not high. We left a day early. An earlier departure was not possible as some of the group were not well enough to travel before Thursday. I was left with the impression that the property is offered as a money-making resource, rather than a place that is cherished. There is a house-keeping deposit supposedly in operation. However, if the owners can’t take on ‘extra’ cleaning to turn the property around (presumably between Friday 10am and 4pm), then imposing a house-keeping ‘fine’ will not clean it either. This place needs a dedicated cleaner and handyman to be employed for the turn round time each week. My recommendation is to avoid the place - we won’t be returning. If you do go, on the current presentation and cleaning regime, you will be very much reliant on how the previous occupants have left the place - but you should have plenty of hot water for cleaning!

Super place to celebrate my husbands 50th birthday with friends.

Kids loved exploring the grounds and plenty to do to keep the adults entertained in the 'pub' with darts and pool.

This farmhouse is full of rustic charm with plenty of space for large family gatherings and beautifully decorated for Christmas.

The setting is peaceful and picturesque. Unfortunately the facilities let it down: only 2 showers worked which was particularly difficult for my 88year old mother. The owner said he would come and sort but didn’t. Dishwasher in main kitchen doesn’t wash properly. Knives are so blunt you can’t cut anything - we tried to sharpen but still useless. Heating is operated remotely by owner which makes it difficult to regulate. The lack of hot water and cold bedrooms made it very challenging for a family of 15. If all this was sorted this place would be perfect.

The views and location is amazing.

We did have a lovely time. We appreciate it is an old building and if people staying there don't give feedback then things cannot be sorted.The general cleanliness in the main kitchen was below par. Quite a few peices of crockery were chipped/ broken. The chairs at the kitchen table some were very unstable and not safe. The bedrooms were all clean and tidy and the bed linen and towels were good quality. The back up electric heaters were a must as the central heating was somewhat temperamental. The place got cosy when the log burner was going. There lacked a downstairs cloakroom/WC. There we some unwanted guests (mice) in the small kitchen. And something larger in the loft. All in all despite the above this is a lovely place to visit in a beautiful setting.

We had a lovely stay at Pant Dafydd Goch Llangollen, North Wales.

The farmhouse has a relaxed feeling which is great for a big family with kids. The fireplaces are lovely and super cosy! The super long kitchen table was great to seat everyone. Would love to book again

Beautiful house plenty of room for a family of 17.

The bedrooms were spacious, kitchen table was great for seating all of us. The pool table and darts board with other games was a great addition to the house. The views were amazing from the house, the family were able to go outside and play ball games. Overall a great stay for 80th birthday celebrations.

Beautiful house in a great location a stone’s throw from Llangollen and other local places if interest.

Perfect for large families and yes… we wanted to take the owner’s dog home with us. We would definitely love to come again.

Great property, beautiful landscape.

Good for all kids ages (especially as it was the lambing season). We had kids from 10 months to 9 years and lots to do in the property and surrounding areas. Would highly recommend a trip to Chirk castle

Thoroughly enjoyable stay

Had all facilities our family needed.

Spacious, Great family lounge area and kitchen. Games room was a hit although pool table needs new cloth as current one is ripped in parts. All bedrooms and bathrooms were well furnished with clean bed linen however a couple of mattresses were hard and double bed above games room kitchen was creaky. Gorgeous location, short drive to Llangollen and Chirk Castle with views to die for. Thank you

Fabulous property in peaceful surroundings.

Accommodated 11 adults, 2 children and 3 dogs to celebrate my mums 80th birthday. Highly recommend

The property is beautiful and the owners helped us so much as the weekend almost didn’t happen due to snow!

100% recommend to anyone and will be returning ourselves.

What an fabulous house in a beautiful setting, we stayed for a long weekend with friends and family for a 60th, the hosts were lovely and the house was perfect.

We celebrated my husband's birthday with the family at the cottage and had a fabulous time, there was plenty of room for everyone, the area is so peaceful, and the owners are lovely, would definitely go again.

Absolutely beautiful property!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was set in beautiful surroundings and had plenty of space and room options for our family. The place was decorated for Christmas and looked stunning throughout. Would highly recommend

As a family of 15 we had the most amazing weekend in a lovely house with fantastic views , everyone enjoyed making fabulous memories.

We had a fabulous stay at this property.

We were a group of 10 across 3 generations from 19 to 89 years old. The house is spacious with large proportioned rooms throughout. There was plenty of space for everyone. The bedrooms are all good sizes with 3 standout bedrooms, 1 in each upstairs wing and the downstairs bedroom off the kitchen/diner. Everyone slept really well, my dad who's 89 and an early riser slept in every morning! The bed linen and towels were really good quality. All the bathrooms are spacious, really high quality and there was plenty of hot water. Outside space is great! With far reaching views in total peace and quiet (just the sheep for neighbours). We made good use of the side garden playing rounders. The covered patio was used by the older family members as it was sheltered and warmed by the sun. Plenty to do in this property in the evenings with the huge lounge, board games, darts in the snug and pool tournaments in the next room. Having 2 kitchens in either side of the house meant easy access to snacks and cold/hot drinks. Things to note- there are 3 quite high steps into the main kitchen/diner and the stairs on both sides of the house are quite steep with a rope hand rail. As the 2nd ground floor bedroom had no easy access to a toilet (in the night) my elderly parents slept upstairs so one of us had to be on hand to help with the stairs but as this was just twice a day it didn't detract from our enjoyment. As in the description this is an isolated house, the surrounding roads are narrow (although plenty of passing places) and llangollen is about 15-20 minute drive. Chirk about 15 minutes. The track to the house is quite bumpy but we had no problem driving in an Astra and 2 SUV's, just drive slow and be careful of the sheep. If you want to get away from it all and relax in total peace and quiet in a huge, comfortable house but with access to surrounding villages and towns then this house ticks all the boxes.

We had a great time.

If your looking to explore Wales this is a great base to stay at. We took the whole family. 14 plus a baby and 6 dogs!! The house really is fantastic loads of space, huge kitchen and dining table that we could all comfortably sit at. The pool table and dartboard giving us some great evening entertainment. Even the teens were happy as the WiFi worked!! The garden is a great size with stunning views down the valley.

We really loved this place.

Thank you very much !

Beautiful house in a beautiful spot.

Fab weekend.

We loved our stay The location is stunning The owner was wonderful So helpful for so many things Just a couple of points It should be mentioned that the stairs are steep and not great for the over 80’s!

Otherwise we all had a great time

Thanks for a great stay, 17 of us (12 adults and 5 children) made the trip down for our mums 70th birthday celebration weekend!

Really great place to host such a big party, the long kitchen table was just perfect for us all as! Upon arrival the hosts brought us extra heaters as they was an issue with the radiator oil, heaters worked fine and along with the fires throughout it was nice and warm! With 17 of us the house was quite noisy, and sound does seem to travel through the house quite a lot as it’s so old! I had the bedroom next to the main living room and to be honest the mattress could do with being replaced or the bed frame, it wasn’t a great nights sleep for me and my husband but after speaking to the others they all seemed to sleep well! Overall a really great stay! Thanks so much

The owners are friendly and helpful and the cottage is beautiful and comfortable.

I’ll be back for sure!

We stayed here as a group of 12 friends for a long weekend.

Such a lovely home - Alex has done a great job. The cottage is full of character, spacious and well equipped. It's ideal for cosy days/nights in or walking and exploring the surrounding countryside. Original and quirky...we'll definitely be back.

This is an excellent property to chill out and relax in Very quirky with lovely features.

The owners make you feel welcome and on hand if needed . The place was nice snd clean upon arrival and everything worked as intended. It’s hard to fault this property but if nit picking I would say it’s a shame there is no downstairs “communal” loo and would be more practical if more of the bedrooms had twin beds, that you could push together if couples in the room. Overall excellent place!

This place is out of this world we have 3 nights here with family and friends to celebrate my 40th and it was just the best time ever memories made for a life time ,the space the decor the outside everytime was just gorgeous.

kerry & Alex were to hand if we had any questions or queries honestly guys you have such a jem

What a fabulous weekend grateful to Alex & Ceri for sharing their amazing property with us to celebrate my Mum's 80th Birthday.

The location is just stunning the access is challenging but easily navigated with caution & well worth the effort once you get to the house. Once there everything was to hand for the party of 13 of us to celebrate in style. The space the property gave us made for a very special weekend Thank You

Despite storm Arwen which left us blocked in and then with no power, our group still had a great stay.

The owners were great and kept us supplied with torches, tea lights and night lights

Great house for a big group in a lovely location.

Clean and comfortable. Views are amazing. There is one bedroom that is between the reception rooms which isn’t ideal as once someone is asleep in that room, half the house is cut off. Pool table and darts board were great. We would definitely come back.

Pant Dafydd Goch is in a lovely setting with beautiful views and in general a good time was had by all 14 of us, but the long drive down to the property is a challenge to say the least resulting in one of our party having a flat tyre caused by one of the many loose stones (although it does say in the property description that the drive is unmettled we were not prepared for how bad it actually was having to negotiate it at a crawl!

!). Also, on arrival we had to wash all the dishes before we could use them as they were dirty, we then discovered that the filter in the dishwasher was blocked with food, which was obviously the reason for the dirty dishes! There was also recycling in the kitchen bins from the previous occupants! We couldn’t help feeling that although qwerky the property is in need of some general upgrading and a new drive!!

This is such a beautiful place to stay .

It really is in the middle of nowhere so make sure you go equipped with food and drinks but well worth it ! Stunning views and a very comfortable cottage with plenty of space and everything you would need at hand . The owners are very friendly, accommodating and helpful should you need to contact them . Would definitely recommend a stay here .

This place was absolutely brilliant!

Loads of space for everyone to have their own space and then to be able to get together and party,

The area and the house were fantastic - absolutely beautiful.

There's enough space in the house that people could have a bit of space if needed but the communal areas were big enough for everyone to hang around in. We're big hikers and really enjoyed how many hikes you could go on from the house.

We had a fantastic holiday and the accommodation was good value, beautifully situated , well stocked and spacious.

The outdoor terrace and the extensive living room with lots of comfy sofas were delightful. Alex was very helpful and on hand for any issues. The route to the house is pretty rugged for cars with a low undercarriage but we got used to this. As an old farmhouse and converted barn there were some fixtures and fittings that needed a little work- stiff doors etc but this did not detract from a superb week.

We were delighted with our getaway, a long overdue get together, we were happy to find somewhere with such character and charm to accommodate friends, babies and dogs too, and all with an amazing view!

Fabulous cottage.

Very homely and a perfect place to host the family for Christmas. Alex and Ceri provided Xmas trees and decorations and we were welcomed with a few gifts. I would highly recommend a visit there.

Beautiful property.

It is quite isolated but that suited us. Alex the owner was very helpful before and during our stay. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend it.

A beautiful cottage, lots of space and very quirky, has everything you need.

The owner was very helpful and quick to respond to any queries. We had a weekend away as a large group to celebrate Christmas and cooked a large Christmas dinner for 17 people. Everyone fit round the table too was the perfect setting to do this for sure. Look forward to future returns.

Lovely place.

Quiet rural location. Lovely welcome pack. Blankets throughout for snuggling in. Only thing I would say is basic condiments in the kitchen like salt and pepper would be a great help. Also a bottle opener and corkscrew are a must. Everything else was amazing.

House is beautiful and full of character with outstanding views.

It was great to have a table big enough to seat us all and a large living room, as well as a cosy snug for the kids.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location - thank you!

The cottage was perfect for our large family gathering- very well equipped and comfortable.

The owner describes Pant Dafydd Goch as a "hidden gem".

Absolutely true, and I would add, "but not for the faint-hearted". Pant means hollow and the house is situated off the road in a fold in the hills with a superb view to the South East. The track down to the house is unmade and bumpy but most cars can handle it without difficulty if taken with care. Don't take your low-slung sports car down there. Once there,you will fall in love with the idyllic setting. There are basically two houses joined together by a magnificent and very comfortable lounge. The downstairs bedroom is part of the route through to the enormous kitchen/dining room but can be shut off for privacy. The owner has furnished the house with period furniture which recreates the atmosphere of the old Welsh farmhouses where I spent holidays as a child many years ago. The beds are much more comfortable, however, as they all have modern mattresses. The layout is somewhat eccentric and full of surprises, but we made it work for our large family group and even held a wedding anniversary party where a tour of the house was part of the entertainment. Staying there was an unforgettable experience. If you have a dog you should be aware that the house is surrounded by pasture with grazing livestock and even our son's elderly dog was able to hop over part of the stone wall and into the sheep pen just in front of the house. She was rather scared of the sheep.

Fantastic holiday and host.

The house has everything we needed and was in a stunning location. The rooms all spacious and everyone felt at home all weekend. Close to Llangollen for a day out and plenty of room for my 2 dogs to play out too back at the farmhouse. We will definitely be booking again!

This house was wonderful, totally met all my expectations for a family holiday with ages ranging from 14 to 78.

The house being split into 2 wings meant that there was plenty of room for everyone .The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and comfortable .All the bathrooms had fantastic showers. The views from the house were peaceful and serene. I would thoroughly recommend this house for anyone who wanted to bring different generations on holiday ,as there was plenty of living space .

We are a large 3 gen .

family,18 months to 73 plus 2 dogs..The house is fine and spacious,in older style with 2 kitchens,one at each end of the property.The one with a table for us all to sit to-gether was the one we used all the time. Warm,relaxing and welcoming,we felt at home immediately.Plenty of space outside for games ,kids to play and be as noisy as you can stand,sheep don"t complain.10 minutes to Llangollen,plenty to do,or nothing at all ,great food and service.The owner,Mr Bond,very helpful and on hand if required if any problems.This will sum it up,every body was up for doing it again,here,next year.

Alex was great, really appreciated his communication before and during our stay.

Thanks!

Pant Dafydd Goch is a lovely old house with loads of character alongside modern facilities.

The property is located in a remote and beautiful location. The views from the property are stunning and the sun shines on the house from sunrise to sunset. The house is perfect for big family gatherings or for holidays with groups of friends and children. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the surrounding area and can advise on places to visit. Due to its location I would advise that you use the owner’s directions to find the property which were perfect, rather than following a sat nav.

Amazing property, beautifully renovated.

Lovely touches throughout. We had a family birthday here and thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility of the space and amazing views. We really felt relaxed and rested here. We did have to flag down the food delivery up at the main road but that was quite fun so didn't cause us any issues. Alex was a fantastic host nothing was too much trouble, he really went out of his way to help us on a few occasions. Would love to revisit and highly recommend to anyone looking for a special property and amazing views.

Beautifully renovated old farm house.

Very cosy, with amazing views. Ideal location, not far from Llangollen but feels very remote. Lots of great walks from the door. Perfect family get away.

Just be aware that the farmhouse is in the middle of nowhere so Is quite difficult to explain to taxi companies where you are going as the road is unnamed.

The driveway is through fields over a cattle grid so I wouldn’t attempt this in a low or sports car. The property itself is lovely and couldn’t fault it. Plenty of pubs and planes to eat in the nearby villages. Everyone is very polite.

This cottage is the perfect little hideaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life so peaceful and quiet with amazing views and a great location to explore all the site around Chirk and Llangollen, with a family of of 6 and 2 dogs we couldn’t of had a better family time away .

The house was lovely, filled with character.

Plenty of space for us with 2 kids and 2 dogs. A little difficult to find as it’s quite isolated, got there with directions from the owner who was more than helpful. Llangollen was only a 10 minute drive away.

A lovely cottage and we had a very good family holiday.

Just a note on the directions to find the property there is no sign for hang gliding centre.

Fantastic week in the farmhouse.

Brilliant seculded location, with wonderful views. Great for families to meet up for a holiday. Llangollen is only 15 mins away and is a truly picturesque place. Alex, the owner, was very welcoming and accomodating. We definitely want to come back here again.

Alex was there to meet us when we arrived and also when we left, which made it personable.

Alex made it known we could contact him at anytime should we need to know or require anything...a perfect friendly host. We did get a little lost trying to find the cottage, we followed the instructions Alex had recommend instead of following the sat nav route; this made it even more a special journey-it was like a treasure hunt trail :) The only problem was the last sign to follow for the directions had been removed, hence us getting lost; why we didn't think to ring Alex for help, who knows! :) It is a remote property therefore the path to it is across a field and a stoney rocky path, which may not be suitable for all vehicles, but it is definitely all worth it, you become part of the country scenery and make friends with the sheep :) The property is beautiful, very rustic. If anything there are a few things that require attention, such as a fault on a panel of the double glazing, which makes it look misty and the garden could be tidied, but nothing major at all. The bedding and towels were super white and clean, everything was very clean, all the pots and drinking glasses were sparkling. The bathrooms were equally as clean and pristine. A basket of goodies and a fridge with condiments was a very welcoming touch. We sat around the dining table for an evening meal with the patio doors open, it was bliss. After 2 nights we were all beginning to wish the cottage belonged to us, it has a beautiful homely feeling and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We would definitely recommend this relaxing authentic cottage to anyone. Thank you Alex, from 7 beautiful, just 50year old girls X X X X X X X
