    “We stayed in this property from Monday-Friday.”

    The accommodation is in a great location with scenic views and a short distance to the local town and supermarket. The property was well equipped, clean and comfortable, however there are some areas in which improvements could be made. * the element of the grill is not working * unpleasant damp odour in the downstairs bathroom * drainage issues, resulting in the shower tray not draining quickly enough * Handles on sauce pans need fixing (no screwdriver available to do this) * more games ...

    The accommodation is in a great location with scenic views and a short distance to the local town and supermarket. The property was well equipped, clean and comfortable, however there are some areas in which improvements could be made. * the element of the grill is not working * unpleasant damp odour in the downstairs bathroom * drainage issues, resulting in the shower tray not draining quickly enough * Handles on sauce pans need fixing (no screwdriver available to do this) * more games would have been welcome, 3 board games available, however “operation” did not work as had no batteries, “frustration” game broken, “pictionary” parts missing. * slats on the bottom bunk kept slipping out. * parking was tricky, our party had 2 cars and there are limited parking spaces (2x per property) a van parked in one of our spaces throughout the duration of the stay. * could not locate a mop bucket, or a floor mat for the shower overflow. Despite the above recommendations of areas to be addressed, we had a lovely comfortable stay and would recommend this property and return to this property for future breaks in this area. Thankyou

Waterloo House

A group of three pleasant cottages sitting in a row located in Llangollen, taking a roadside position. Lovely views lean out towards the park and river nearby with Castell Dina Bran in the distance, a backdrop that can be admired from the comfort of your very own holiday home. Each retreat includes a well-equipped, modernised kitchen and a collection of appliances, so you can prepare those delicious meals at ease morning through to evening. The family bathrooms and shower rooms have been styled in a contemporary overtone, wrapped in a grey finish to compliment the cottages neutral theme. The sitting rooms are comfortable and inviting, your little haven to enjoy some quiet time after a sightseeing adventure. Whether you are coming together as a family, accompanying friends, or planning a romantic getaway, the interior provides somewhere for everyone to relax in style, with a choice of bedrooms available from master suites to twin set-ups, even ground floor sleeping arrangements for convenience or preference. Llangollen is a haven for shoppers looking for interesting and unusual gifts. There are a series of interesting walks in the town; the canal from the town to the Chain Bridge Hotel and Horseshoe Falls as an example. Another walk is Bishops Walk from the Bridge End Hotel side of the river bridge along the riverside past the old mill sluice gates and leet and the remains of the weir, then past views of St. Collens church over the river, and on to the Sarah Ponsonby Inn. A favourite walk is the town side of the bridge stroll along Dee Lane and Victoria Promenade to Riverside Walk. This passes by gardens with scenery of the steam trains, ducks, tennis courts, bowling green and children's play area.
