    “We had an amazing time in Llangollen, its a lovely place.”

    Although we were there for a wedding so didnt get chance to explore. We've decided that we are going to go back next year. We will definatly stay in Dovetail cottage again. It has everything you need and very clean. Its home away from home, its an amazing place to stay. It was really cosy but quite warm even with the windows open. Think we will bring a fan next time. You can park at the back of the cottage if you have a small car as it looks as if it could be difficult to turnround. We parked ...

    Although we were there for a wedding so didnt get chance to explore. We've decided that we are going to go back next year. We will definatly stay in Dovetail cottage again. It has everything you need and very clean. Its home away from home, its an amazing place to stay. It was really cosy but quite warm even with the windows open. Think we will bring a fan next time. You can park at the back of the cottage if you have a small car as it looks as if it could be difficult to turnround. We parked on the community hall car park on Regent road. Its relatively cheap and if over the road from the passageway to the front door. Entrance to back and front door is via a few steps and the key holder is on the door frame on the back door (took us a while to find it). There is also a pole for the sky light in the bedroom. The only thing I could ask for and it in no way caused an issue with our stay was there was no full length mirror in either bedroom or bath room. It was only and issue because of us going to a wedding. All in all great cosy place to stay, 10 out 10!!!!! Will be back next year. Ps. have a read of the visitors book, it was lovely see people comments and that a lot returned over many years. Loved the little note from a family and their scotty dog including a little drawing. Sadly after many years there was a sad entry when they returned without their dog. While your at the cottage we would recommend visiting the cornmill resturant lovely food and great staff.
