“We loved our stay at the Pennant.”

It is perfect for our little walking holiday with the dogs. Henllan was a beautiful quiet and peaceful village.

“I loved this cottage, it was probably the best we’ve stayed at.”

It was incredibly clean and it had everything we needed. We’ll definitely come back. Thank you Clare

“Only question mark is garage!”

Would help if owners gave length of garage, With difficulty I managed to reverse my car in only to find it was too long!!

Sandra July 2024

“This is a beautiful home and very clean and comfortable.”

It is by far the best accommodation I have stayed in since using Sykes. My friend and I took our dogs, and it was a very short drive (maximum 1 hour) to the most spectactular places to visit and walk. The cottage is set within a very small village with a local pub 2 mins away, and the people here are so friendly. It made the long drive (7 hours) worth it.

- Sandra, July 2024

Thank you Sandra for your kind words, I try to make our guest’s stay as enjoyable as I can and provide a place that I would like to book myself. Thank you for booking Pennant and I hope that you’ll return soon. Best wishes Clare Property Owner
Mark June 2024

“Great location for all the local amenities and 20 mins from the beaches - 2 mins to the pub.”

Secured garden for our dogs Teddy and Rupert. Cottage was well equipped (the only thing we could not find was a cheese grater - sorry for being picky). The cottage was very clean on arrival - beds, towels and linen all great. Slight problem with the outside drain - but dealt with. We would highly recommend and are aiming to return. Thanks for a great stay - you have a near perfect property. Mark/Jo.

- Mark, June 2024

Thank you Mark &Jo for the lovely comments. I’m glad that you enjoyed your stay . I’m sorry about the cheese grater , I’m not sure what’s happened to it, there used to be one. Thank you for pointing it out because I’ll get another one now. I look forward to welcoming you back again. Kind regards Clare Property Owner

Louise March 2024

“Well what can I say?”

? this Cottage has definitely been one of the best we have stayed in, everything you could possibly need, and the comfy beds, we stayed with our 5 year old and dachshund puppy, we were staying to visit family locally and it was perfect to get back at the end of the day and just chill out, the garage is tight but I left the parking to my hubby, who had no issue! hoping to come back back later in the year too

- Louise, March 2024

Thank you Louise for the kind feedback. I’m glad that you had a lovely stay. Looking forward to having you stay again. Property Owner

“Pennant was a ideal location for getting out and about and the view from the ...”

Pennant was a ideal location for getting out and about and the view from the bedroom window was special : the property itself was clean, spacious, kitchen equipment galore, very comfy bed And well placed for the local shop, If I had to be critical my only grouse was the garage being small for my car but we managed - we had a lovely time and Clare the owner was more than helpful when we contacted her ( and she's posting my hat to me that I left there ) - thank you

- Kevin, February 2024

Sharon September 2023

“The cottage is lovely and peaceful and as described.”

Its in a perfect location to explore the North of Wales. The milk and fruit cake was a nice touch The beds are very comfy - main bedroom has a softer mattress and the 2nd bedroom has a firmer mattress. The garden is great for a dog as its safe and secure. The garage was great also and easily fitted my Toyota.

- Sharon, September 2023
Chris August 2023

Thank you Chris for your kind feedback. Hope to see you again soon. Clare Property Owner
John August 2023

“Excellent cottage, everything you could need for a home from home.”

Safe enclosed garden for the pooch, dog crates under the bed, thank you to Claire for the essentials! Nice comfy lazyboy sofas to relax on after a busy day out. Llindir pub is lovely and welcoming. Fields next to the cottage for walking, outhouse to store our bikes, managed to fit our MG5 estate in the garage without issue. Will book again soon!

- John, August 2023

Hi John, thank you for the lovely feedback, we’d love to have you stay again. Kind regards Clare & Marcus Property Owner
Christina June 2023

“Beautiful and comfortable cottage with lovely views and easy access to the North wales coast, Bodnant Garden and Anglesey.”

Easy to get to from the A55. Great secure rear garden for the dogs. Close to the friendly village pub and walks straight out of the front door. Plenty of room to get my Terios in the garage.There were a few minor issues but nothing that affected our stay, emailed the owners to make them aware and enable them to sort things out, would happily go back.

- Christina, June 2023

Thank you Christina for your lovely feedback. Thank you for telling us about the minor issues so that we could sort them out promptly. We look forward to your booking again. Kind regards Clare and Marcus Property Owner
Julian May 2023

“Cottage amazing.”

Area beautiful. Pub The llindr superb and literally 2 minutes walk. This cottage literally has everything you need. Only issue was the bath seemed very unstable? As I was getting out it tipped backwards causing me to slip. No injury done but could have been potentially problematic

- Julian, May 2023
Peter May 2023

“A beautiful cottage would recommend as a holiday base, Only drawback is the garage not being Suitable for car, There wasn’t any problem parking on the pub, just struggled on the Saturday pub was packed with being a nice day so struggled for parking.”

We found some lovely walks with dog.

- Peter, May 2023
Janette April 2023

“Beautiful cottage and very well equipped.”

Everything you could need was provided including comprehensive information about surrounding areas. The garden was secure and perfect for my little dog. Bed was comfy and bathroom was very good. O pnly downside was bath did not feel secure climbing in and out but probably because it was freestanding. On the plus side there was a beautiful walk in shower. I would happily book the cottage again.

- Janette, April 2023

Thank you Janette for your lovely feedback. You’re correct in saying that the bath is freestanding & it can appear less stable than a fixed bath . We look forward to your return visit. Kind regards Clare Property Owner
Anwen December 2022

“We really enjoyed our 4 night stay over the New Year at Pennant.”

The house was spotless throughout. It was very cold when we got there and took until the morning to heat up properly, but from then on was lovely and cosy. We had the dog with us and there were plenty of walks in the area, from the house or with the car to surrounding areas. The only problem we had was that our car was too big to be parked in the garage, so we parked in the pubs car park which was very full at times, but that may have been because of the New Year. I would recommend staying at Pennant and would definetly go back to stay again.

- Anwen, December 2022
Angela October 2022

“We arrived to find the cottage immaculate and extremely well equipped.”

The village is very picturesque and ideally situated to explore all of North Wales. We have loved our stay here and sincerely hope we will be able to return next season.

- Angela, October 2022

Thank you so much for your feedback. I’m glad you had a good stay and look forward to you booking again. Property Owner

Exceptionally clean. Very well equipped kitchen. No complaints whatsoever.

- Therese Carey, September 2022
Bethan May 2022

“The owner was extremely accommodating and helpful.”

Nothing was too much trouble.

- Bethan, May 2022
Siobhan May 2022

“The house was lovely, garden is perfect for dogs to use without worrying about them escaping over non existent fences like some properties we've stayed in.”

Will definitely be looking to book again.

- Siobhan, May 2022
Val October 2021

“The cottage was lovely, accessing the garage was difficult so we.”

Parked in the pub car park. The landlady was very nice and said it was fine for us to park there and it was only 2 mins walk from the car park to the cottage. The village is very pretty and it was a good place to access the surrounding beauty spots and coast. We were only a short drive to Denbigh which is a lovely historical town. All together we had a really enjoyable stay at Pennant and would have no hesitation in recommending the cottage to our friends and family.

- Val, October 2021
Lynn September 2021

“The only problem was the parking.”

Garage is only suitable for small car..no others parking at property have to park in pub car park..which means a walk up hill..not suitable for disabled people

- Lynn, September 2021
Kevin September 2021

“The cottage is beautiful - has all the fixtures and fitting you need for a holiday and the location for touring North Wales is excellent, however parking can be a issue if you have a car which is too big to fit in the garage (we have an Insignia and it was about 6 inches too long).”

Due to access issues with the neighbouring property you cannot leave your car at the front of the property, instead you have to park in the pub car park which is only a short distance away, however its down a quite steep short hill... This wont be a problem for most people, however if your driver is of limited mobility then they may find walking back up the hill an issue. Like I said the cottage itself is lovely and Claire is very inobtrusive and helpful.

- Kevin, September 2021
Glyn June 2021

“Pennant Cottage was great had everything we want on our holiday.”

The interior kitchen bathroom bedrooms all new, immaculately clean and well presented. The cottage is set in a loverly quite village with local shop and pub, met a few of the locals with a hive of knowledge about the village and surrounding areas. just a short drive to Denbigh and other local areas of outstanding beauty. This is one of those cottages i would recommend, a big thank you to the owner. Will defiantly book again. Mrs Riley

- Glyn, June 2021
Gordon May 2021

“The cottage had everything you could wish for and lots more besides sky television pub at the bottom of the road shop just round the corner.”

the people in the village are so helpful would love to stay again thank you.

The property

Tucked away in a picturesque setting within the sleepy Welsh village of Henllan, you will find this superb holiday home, Pennant.

Surrounded by the incredible Clwydian Mountain Range, Pennant offers the perfect base for a family of four or a group of outdoor enthusiasts who seek an unforgettable adventure in this stunning part of Wales.

Feel at home as you enter into the warm and restful ambiance of the sitting room, a wonderful space to snuggle up to loved ones on one of the plush leather sofas and delight in an entertaining movie on the TV.

Make your way across the floor to the traditional dining room, placing a log on the striking woodburning stove before taking your seat at the large mahogany table to map out plans for your upcoming days exploring the Denbighshire countryside.

Take to the kitchen to prepare a fabulous evening feast and discover a plethora of appliances such as an electric double oven, induction hob, dishwasher and washing machine, together answering all of your self-catering needs.

On warm summer days, be sure to dine alfresco with a barbecue in the garden, before heading back indoors to the first floor where you can indulge in a relaxing soak in the gorgeous free-standing bath or a refreshing rinse in the spacious walk-in shower, both of which can be found resting within the family bathroom.

Grab your towel from the heated rail and retreat to one of the two well-appointed bedrooms, whether it be the inviting king-size or the homely twin.

Discover the very best that Wales has to offer with days spent in the nearby market town of Denbigh, home to imposing landmarks such as Denbigh Castle and Friary, as well as the remains of St Hilary's Chapel and the Denbigh Town Walls.

Embark on a breath-taking walk through the Rhuddlan Local Nature Reserve, or take a hike up Moel y Gaer, Bodfari and Penycloddiau Hill Fort for unrivalled views of the encompassing countryside.

Head for Colwyn Bay where you can soak up the sunshine on the soft sandy beach before a mouth-watering portion of fish and chips from the local takeaway or visit the vibrant Llandudno Pier and see the Great Orme Mines.

Upon return to your home-away-from-home, be sure to stop by the Post Office for some tasty snacks and all of your household essentials, or why not grab dinner and drinks at the local pub, just a short walk away from your holiday cottage?

Live unforgettable moments with your loved ones on an escape to Pennant.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

HENLLAN

Denbigh 2.5 miles; St Asaph 5 miles.

The small North Wales village of Henllan is situated between Denbigh and the Diamond Jubilee City of St Asaph. The village offers a shop/Post Office and a pub, which serves good food. St Asaph was awarded city status in 2012 and is best known for its magnificent white cathedral. In September, the city comes alive with the arrival of the North Wales International Music festival, which takes place across numerous locations, culminating for the last few years in a television finale, broadcast from the cathedral. Nearby Denbigh dates back to the 11th century and boasts the remains of a 13th century castle, perched on a steep hill above the town, with its stunning castle walls walk and commanding some superb views over the surrounding countryside. The town is seeped in Welsh culture and boasts itself as the home of many Welsh literary giants, including 17th century poet and author, Twm o’r Nant, famous for performing his light-hearted ‘anterliwtiau’ interludes or short plays in the area, famous 19th century printer Thomas Gee who established the well-known Gee Press works in the town, and more recently home of the ‘queen of our literature’, Kate Roberts. Denbigh is a busy little town, with a variety of shops and pubs, and a number of events including walking festivals, beer festivals, the Denbigh and Flint Annual Show, the Clay Art Potters Market and a monthly People's market. Henllan is a superb touring base for discovering the sights and history of the Clwydian Range’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, plus the stunning lakes of Llyn Brenig and Llyn Alwen, a haven for cycling, mountain biking, walking and fishing in North Wales. You are also within easy reach of Conwy, Llandudno, Snowdonia, Angelsey and Chester.
