• "Excellent Property and Nice garden for the dog."

  . Great view from the bed of the mountains and hills. Was well equipped and shower was the best we have had in a property. However the extractor fan switch should be mentioned in the instructions. Only found the switch when I realised we have one in our wet room and there must be a switch in the kitchen for the bathroom.

  In a wonderful location surrounded by farm land this is a real home from home, all you could need with a lovely secure garden which our two Norfolk Terriers loved to explore. A lovely welcome pack for us and the dogs made us feel welcome straight away. Was lovely to meet our host, can nothing but recommend a stay as you will not be disappointed.

  The cottage has great views and is on a quiet lane with a small garden. We enjoyed watching a good selection of lovely garden birds and plenty of owls in the area. When we arrived there was a great welcome pack left for us with Welsh cakes, free range eggs, milk, home made jam and treats for our furry friend. Also dog toys which our collie enjoyed. The cottage is well equipped and is furnished with good quality furniture and a very comfortable bed.

• "Just returned from a fabulous week!"

  Everything about our stay was amazing, from the text from the owner to say the property was ready for us, when we were on our way, the welcome pack, to finding the superbly clean and beautiful, well equipped, cosy, warm property on our arrival to closing the door as we left ! Most importantly our dog settled in right away which is always a relief to us, and the tap outside was extremely useful for washing off muddy paws after a day of exploring the nearby forests. The view from the bedroom is a real treat … you won’t be disappointed by it if you choose to stay here! Along with a lovely log burner housed in a beautiful fireplace, this property is a real gem ! The friendly owners of the property live next door, and are on hand if there’s any problems.. which we didn’t have, they also maintained our privacy throughout our stay! We hope to return one day soon and would definitely recommend the property to family and friends! Thank you for having us x

• "I can't praise this cottage enough."

  It has every modern feature whilst maintaining period charm. For a one bedroom property, it is spacious and the enclosed gardens which surround the cottage on three sides are lovely and secure. I took my labrador and he loved the outside space whilst I felt he was super safe. A small dog may need to be watched in the front due to the gate onto the road but a medium to large dog will be fine. Karyn and Neil, the owners, left a generous welcome pack - eggs, bread, Welsh cakes, milk and delicious home made jam - together with some dog treats. They live next door and so are on hand if you have any questions but leave you to enjoy you privacy and it is a private space. Handy cleaning products are left which is helpful e.g. washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets, new cloths and sponge. There is a large wardrobe and set of drawers in the bedroom with plenty of hangers and an uninterrupted view of the hills. The spacious kitchen/diner and bathroom are modern and there is outdoor furniture front and back. The little touches mean a lot, fresh flowers and a lovely tray customised for the cottage. The living room has only one small window - it's a cottage - so it is a little dark during daylight but we weren't really there much during the day and the rest of the cottage is so spacious and bright that it isn't an issue at all. In fact, it's really cosy at night. If anyone has mobility issues, there are a couple of steps inside the cottage but you probably wouldn't choose this location if accessibility is essential. The front access is sweet - slate covered paths give that comforting crunch as you walk through the trees and plants. There is plenty of space for your dog to sniff and search at the back and there are plenty of dog walking and dog friendly places to visit. We loved Loggerheads. All in all, this is a lovely cottage with everything you could wish for.

• "This cottage didn’t disappoint, it was beautiful."

  The views from the garden are lovely. Our dogs enjoyed the garden which is fully enclosed and safe, my dachshund is an escape artist, the only place he would escape is under the front gate, so we just put a piece of fencing across the access to that part of the garden (piece of spare fencing found by the cabin in the garden) owners didn’t mind. Safe and secure is important for us as we want our dogs to roam around and enjoy the garden. Inside the cottage was well equipped with modern features but lots of character still. Beautiful view from the bedroom window and French doors onto the garden from the kitchen/diner. Welcome tray when we arrived which was a lovely, and fresh flowers from the garden. Lots of basic’s provided, toilet rolls, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, teabags etc. cosy living room with log burner which we didn’t need to use but lovely, and a comfy sofa. King size comfy bed, good size bedroom with a fantastic view. From the cottage with our dogs we visited, conwy, Llandudno, betws-y-coed, swallow falls, Denbigh, Lake Brenig, Ruthin, Bala Lake, Llangollen, loggerheads. The weather was mainly dry and not too hot for July so ideal for dog walking. Pub a mile down the road which do good food to eat in or takeaway. Very dog friendly, in the pub and the garden. A mile isn’t far but it is very hilly coming home so be warned. I struggled to walk up those hills, and I thought I was quite fit. Couldn’t do it after a full meal. The owners lived next door who were very helpful if you needed anything, but didn’t bother us at all. Space for two cars which we need as we take both our vehicles. This is a wonderful place to stay, either to explore the surrounding countryside or just chill in the beautiful gardens. Great for dog walkers or couples wanting a romantic getaway. I would highly recommend it.

  Thank you so much for your helpful and positive feedback! We’re so glad you and your dogs enjoyed your stay as we want everyone to enjoy our cottage and the surroundings as much as possible. Karyn & Neil Property Owner

  It was so lovely. The cottage was perfect, had all the facilities you needed to feel like it was a home away from home. The garden was perfect for the dogs all fully enclosed with plenty of space. Our hosts were on hand for anything needed, they live next door to the property however, it did not feel like we had neighbours. It is a quiet and peaceful location. We spent the week walking so didn't visit any of the local attractions but when looking and getting out and about there was plenty around close by. Would not hesitate to return to this property and location, we did not want to leave!

  The property had a very secure enclosed garden for our dog who loved it, and If you want a quiet location away from busy main roads, you should find it ideal. Yet there are all the usual local amenities in Ruthin just a short six mile drive away, which is well worth visiting in its own right. I won't go on about all the places of interest to visit as they are many and varied, and you'll find them for yourselves. But I must make mention of our holiday cottage owners, who provided the most generous selection of welcome goodies we've ever experienced.

Thoughtful touches were everywhere making it a home from home for the week such as towels for the dog in case any extra are needed and the kitchen had every utensil needed.
