2 Aqueduct Cottages

A lovely little cottage located right on the Llangollen Canal and literally a few feet only from the Chirk Aqueduct.

This was my second visit and it will certainly not be my last. An amazing place, with the Canal on your doorstep and loads to explore in the area and some amazing places to eat. You can sit in the lounge or weather permitting on the Garden furniture and watch the boats go by. Chirk itself offers many restaurants and takeaways and its merely a 10-15min walk across the Aqueduct. There is also a number of shops, Spar, Co-op etc for provisions. The cottage itself is well furnished with everything you need and maintained beautifully. I enjoyed taking my morning coffee on the Chirk Aqueduct. I am already looking forward to my next visit. Thank you.

Enjoyed lovely holiday which was our fourth stay at Aquaduct Cottage and first time under new owner.

Unique position just steps away from Chirk Aquaduct. Grateful for welcome pack but as previously mentioned in an earlier review some fresh milk would he appreciated as after a long trip might be welcome addition to save searching for milk late in the day if you didn't know the area. Even though it was not cold there was no fire starting kit in the fireplace apart from some charcoal bits left from a previous fire or any wood or kindling despite a recent log store being installed in the garden which was empty. If you list it , it should be provided. Property lovely, clean and comfortable.

Beautiful cottage.

Warm and welcoming,everything provided for a lovely stay along the friendly peaceful and quiet community. Would highly recommend folks to book and witch off from the hustle and bustle of life. Either relaxing in tge veautiful cottage,walking along tge towpath or sitting in the garden with a lovely refreshing drink. Would love go return some day.

Lovely little cottage, comfortable & good facilities.

Brilliant location on the canal, lovely for walking & easy access to Chirk. We would stay again.

What a find!

This cottage was absolutely perfect in every way. The property was very clean, the bed was comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped and the location was stunning. Although only two of us stayed at the property there was more than enough room & equipment for six people. As keen users of the waterways it was an ideal location to launch our very much loved canoe from and it was only a short paddle to The Poachers for Sunday lunch. There were some light bulbs, in the kitchen, that weren't working, but we found a cupboard full of spares. Also, we didn't use the downstairs shower as the extractor fan didn't appear to work.

We had a fantastic stay.

Such a unique area and a gorgeous cottage right on the bank of the canal. We could have spent the whole week at the cottage sitting in the pretty garden. The area has so much to do and visit. Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely week in the cottage despite the very hot weather!

Being next to the canal was ideal for us and we will definitely be booking it again next year.

We loved this cottage, it's in an amazing location and is beautifully laid out as well as well stocked.

Would absolutely recommend it and look forward to visiting again.

Fabulous place to stay.

Great for walking and visiting some great places. The cottage was very sweet, unfortunately the water was cold the last day and it did not connect to the hive, however we still had access to a hot electric shower. Used the dishwasher so managed. We didn’t report at the time as it was almost time to come home. We would recommend 2 Aquaduct Cottages and will most likely return

Thank you

Stayed in June heatwave week, this didn't detract too much, planned trips out in mornings and cottage was cool downstairs to "chill" in the afternoons.

Good that you can see out of lounge window onto canal but special reflective glass means no one can see in. Great location - for walking and visited 3 National Trust properties. 1/4 mile to Caffi Wylfa over aqueduct for great lunches/coffees etc. Nice to have Welcome pack- would have appreciated some milk in fridge rather than Prosecco. But found our way to Chirk shops 1/2 mile away. Spar stays open til 11pm. Got used to stairs. Not sure why microwave is in Utility room- minor point. Very pretty garden. Decking area was good to use when not to hot. All in all lovely holiday home.

This was our second stay in this lovely canal side cottage.

It's changed owner since our first visit Still very comfortable, well equipped, high standard of cleanliness. Two things, only minor. No slotted spoon or sieve for straining vegetables. Dishwasher needed a top up of salt and rinse aid. Just minor stuff, did not detract from a fabulous holiday. Yes. I guess the Welsh border liquid sunshine was a bit of a nuisance a few times but we still had a great time.

Lovely location and we had a very enjoyable stay.

Cottage was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. There was a warning about the steepness of the stairs but we were surprised to find just how steep and difficult they were especially as they went round a corner. Adding the word "very" might make it clearer for those of us on the elderly-side! However, we managed fine once we'd got used to them. It was a great area for walking with lots to see and do in the area.

House was spotlessly clean and very comfortable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at 2 Aqueduct Cottages. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

Just returned from a lovely break at 2 Aqueduct Cottages.

We were sad to leave and would love to return. The Cottage was immaculate, spotlessly clean on check in, and beautifully furnished. The downstairs is surprisingly spacious for a Cottage, and the upstairs lovely and cosy. The upstairs bathroom is spacious and having the extra shower and toilet downstairs was a bonus. The setting was the best bit, a few steps to the tow path for lovely walks, minutes from the aqueduct and an enjoyable 10-15 minutes walk (across the aqueduct) into the village depending on your speed. With the pub and a cafe even closer. The back garden was surrounded by trees and birds, a lovely suntrap too. Would recommend a stay to anyone wanting to get away for some peace and quiet with walks from the front door! I've already been looking at dates to return! Hopefully for a bit longer next time.

This is our second time here and first time under new ownership.

The position on the canal is wonderful with easy access to Chirk and great walks along the canal. We didn’t use the car all week, choosing instead to catch the bus at Chirk Bridge to go to Oswestry and the train from Chirk station (a short walk away) to Wrexham. We also enjoyed cycling along the canal. The beds are comfortable, the towels and bedding were good quality and the addition of a shower screen over the bath was a bonus, although getting the water temperature at the right heat was slightly tricky. Overall we had a very good week in a very warm and cosy cottage.

Been using the cottage for the last 12 years previous owner Susan was always ready to meet us on arrival, always made us feel welcome.

No idea who now owns the cottage now The cottage was well equipped lovely bedding, towels etc .personally I got a bit pissed of after a 6 hour journey all I wanted to do was light the fire when we arrived unfortually it hadn't been cleaned out and no starter kit .to use. Husband got a bit naggy because he had to go for fuel after driving down but all was good afterwards. I didn't use the washing machine because of the build up of mould on the seal . All in all though I will be booking again its home from home for me and my husband as all family live in Chirk.

Hidden gem, few steps and you are on the Llangollen canal towpath over the aqueduct and into Wales, head the other direction and you walk along the towpath in England.

An easy walk into Chirk, with a quality butcher, greengrocers, bakery, gift shops, eateries and pubs. Amazing walks and places to visit and a castle on your doorstep what else do you need? A must is the British Ironworks in Shropshire, Ellesmere and Lake Vyrnwy. Don’t forget your head torch if you are late back from the pub or walk through the tunnel. Saving the best bit to last the cottage was so inviting, homely and comfortable everything you could wish for your stay. Enjoy your stay I certainly did!

3rd time at cottage, first under new ownership.

Ideal location next to canal and short stroll from aqueduct. Handy for visiting local area. Very comfortable and well equipped. Directions not as good as previously provided, following signs to Chirk Aqueduct would take you to the wrong part of canal if followed. Will definitely book again.

This is a wonderful place to stay, with a perfect location on the canal, perfect for kayaking, walking, or just watching the narrowboats go past.

The cottage is beautiful and extremely comfortable, with every detail being so thoughtfully designed. The welcome basket on arrival was a lovely touch. We will definitely be back and can't recommend it highly enough. The owner was extremely kind and helpful too.

Lovely cottage with good facilities.

Very welcoming with fresh flowers and drinks/snacks. Nice position by the canal - interesting to watch the boats go by - and a good spot to explore the area. Watch the satnav - ours took us to the wrong side of the canal!
