Sitting on a picturesque dairy farm near a quiet village, this charming restored barn is a perfect getaway for small families or couples looking to relax. Less than a mile away is the village of Lixwm, with a few small shops and pubs to refuel. For a day at the beach, Talacre Beach is 13 miles away with beautiful sands, a lighthouse and makes a great spot to watch the sunset. Head to Holywell (4 miles) for a spot of history, including the St. Winefride's Well & Shrine, or to enjoy a round of golf on the 18-hole course. Here you’ll also find a good selection of local eateries for the days when you’d rather not cook.

Boasting original features such as oak woodwork and exposed stone, the property has been built in an upside down fashion, with the kitchen, lounge and dining area on the first floor. The vibrant living room features a gorgeous skylight creating a bright and airy space, with two leather sofas and an electric feature wood burner creating a cosy atmosphere. Complete with a breakfast bar, the modern pale grey kitchen makes cooking up a meal a pleasure with ample preparation space. The dining room is stunning, with a feature exposed wall, drop lighting and a spacious table to gather friends and family together. On the ground floor, the first bedroom is a king-size with matching cream and oak furniture offering space to unpack and feel right at home. This room benefits from an en-suite shower with underfloor heating for the colder months of the year. The second bedroom can be made up as a king or a twin to accommodate a range of guests and is served by the family bathroom which also enjoys underfloor heating.

Outside, the private garden enjoys a patio and lawn area where guests can enjoy the enclosed hot tub, watching the sunset and relaxing with a beautiful view.

A superb cottage in a great location. Comfortable, warm and very well equipped. Excellent hosts who are happy to show you the latest calves and talk about the workings of their dairy farm. The cottage is very well located for visiting many of the attractions in North Wales.

We had such a wonderful time. The cottage was beautiful and in an idyllic location.

This is a really lovely barn conversion, well equipped and decorated, and making great use of the space. It has a sunny terrace with table and chairs for meals etc, weather permitting. It is on a dairy farm, with the farmhouse over the road and Rhian, Eryl and family are very friendly and helpful.

The barn conversion provides excellent and really comfortable accommodation. We really enjoyed our week's holiday here which was made all the more special with fresh flowers and Halloween decorations. Ample welcome pack of wine, milk, biscuits and cake was also much appreciated. We also really enjoyed using the indoor hot tub to relax in during thRead moree dark evenings of October. Property is very well placed to visit Snowdonia, North Wales coast, Llangollen and Chester and is only a 5 minute drive off the A55 North Wales Expressway, yet is in a very quiet and rural location. Owners are friendly and helpful. We have no hesitation in recommending this first class holiday accommodation - it is one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in. Hide

Our best recommendation is that this is our second visit and as before Eryl and Rhian were lovely hosts. I forgot to specify how we wanted the second room set up and Rhian remembered how we were set up before and contacted me to ensure it was right, which was very thoughtful. The highlight has to be meeting the new calf that was born that morningRead more at 2am as she was brought to the nursery. It is an excellent place to stay when exploring the area and the Cherry Pie Inn just down the road provides an excellent meal when you don't want to cook. Highly recommended. Hide
