Shirley
Enjoyed a relaxing and much needed rest. Hope to return next year. It was nice to see the welsh Black cattle, the view from the patio was marvellous. Thank you so much Anwen for making us feel so welcome.
Ashley
We had a fantastic weeks stay, the property was spotless and the owners lovely. Definitely would recommend this property and we aim to return next year.
Absolutely adored our stay here, such a lovely place to relax and unwind. Facilities were brill and especially loved coming home to the hot tub after a long day of exploring. Hosts were super helpful and kind too, it was lovely chatting about the farm and interesting stories in general. We'd love to come back in the future! x
The host was Very welcoming, approachable and was very knowable regarding the area. the house had everything you could want or need regarding cooking location was perfect and easy to access very peaceful perfect unwind with a hot tub .
Samantha
Excellent rural quiet & picturesque location. ..a good base for all the coastal towns along the North Wales coast.....all rooms very spacious & tidy.
All that's missing are some grab rails by the toilet in the down stairs bathroom.
Jessica
Had a great 4 night stay here. Beautiful property overlooking rolling hills with some cows as neighbours
Eileen
Lovely cottage warm and cosy very friendly owner will definitely return
Rebecca
Excellent property in the countryside. Everywhere was very clean. Hot tub was lovely. Amazing views. Cottage felt very spacious. Only very minor comments about the dining room chairs and one of the chairs very saggy! Host was excellent very welcoming and friendly and helpful.
Very good stay and brilliant service from the owner. My daughter's first holiday and one she will never forget. Thank you
Excellent host. Owner was very welcoming and made sure our stay is top notch. We never had a better holiday in the UK. It was really good. My kids in particular the twins, loved walking around the firm. It was a total relax holiday!!
A lovely property in a beautiful location. Hot tub enjoyed by the younger family members

Had a fantastic week, enjoyed the cottage and exploring North Wales.
Samantha
Lovely little cottage. Nice and clean and hot tub was great. Anwen the owner really looked after us if we needed anything. Thank you so much. Would definitely recommend!
Although we had what we needed for the weeks' stay, a few things were not as expected. The road leading to the property is a single track, very bumpy with overgrown hedges for a couple of miles. So this property won't be for you if you have a large car, unless you mind a few scratches. The property was average, a few broken bits when we arrived, blinds not shutting properly, towel rails and door handles hanging off. Sofa not comfortable, we were out most days to be fair, but the last day decided to chill, the wifi is non existent. The bonus was the hot tub though.
Anwen, was a great host & was available to answer any questions. The only drawback to the cottage was the poor access road which needs attention from the local council. That said it did not spoil our holiday.
Elizabeth
We really enjoyed our holiday in this cottage, it was very comfy and well equipt with the bonus of a hot tub. We had some lovely evenings watching the nearby animals and chatting with the owners . It was great to meet Anwen who I shared a sewing interest with!! Would not hesitate to return.
The cottage is spacious, wellequipped and the downstairs bedroom and shower room made it easily accessible for our elderly mum. The location is fairly remote and very beautiful the view from the terrace and the upstairs double bedroom is quite gorgeous, You do have to drive down narrow, winding, hilly, singletrack lanes to reach it, but we got used to that. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. Only negative is that dogs aren't allowed, meaning that the whole family couldn't stay. We would stay here again if we were returning to the area.
We had a lovely couple of days staying at the cottage. The house was extremely clean and wellequipped right down to extra games for the children. The house was warm and the hot pool wonderful! No complaints on that score at all. One suggestion of better information on finding the property itself. Given that I had the owners mobile number I was unperturbed when we got lost until I discovered we had no mobile signal. However, the local Post Office soon put us on the right track. Would definitely recommend this property and would be happy to return.
Francesca
We were expecting a farm cottage in the middle of nowhere. Which we got but that takes away from the accommodation. It was a lovely farm cottage with everything we needed. Clean and well equipped so we felt like we were on holiday, but relaxed enough to feel at home.
The cottage we stayed in was lovely . Anwen the owner was a lovely lady who couldn't do enough for us
The location was just what we were looking for peaceful
Spacious,comfortable well equipped cottage with everything provided for a great holiday. I also appreciated the fullsize fridge freezer which enabled us to stock all our family foods easily especially when you are feeding a family of 5, much better than some holiday homes which only supply a tiny freezer compartment which is neither use nor ornament. Our host Anwen is a lovely lady who was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
Fantastic cottage. Good layout with everything we needed. Perfect rural location that allows you to explore the North Wales coast from Chester to Caernarfon. Very friendly greeting with the owners on site to assist with any needs or offer suggestions. The hot tub overlooking the farms fields with grazing cattle while the sun sets was a great way to end the day!
Owner was very welcoming and was hand if we should need anything. Cottage was in a beautiful setting. Great place to get away from it all and relax.
William
Nice barn lovely people
Ysgubor Barn was ideal for our needs. The downstairs bedroom and shower room suited my elderly mother who finds it difficult to climb stairs. All the facilities we needed were there and Anwen, our host was able to help with any request. The hot tub was an added bonus.
Leanne
Brilliant location. Lovely places to eat only 5 mins drive away. Nice cottage and lovely ownersvery helpful. Rooms are spacious and clean. Nice hot tub and view. Definitely recommend.

A lovely welcome by the owner, Anwen Jones, who couldn't have been more helpful. A very comfortable and spacious cottage. We would certainly recommend this to anyone wanting a Welsh escape from it all. Lastly, the The Bull, in Abergele is well worth going to for a meal both in the quality of its food and its reasonable prices.
Vanessa
Might be useful for future visitors to inform them that the cottage is in a very rural isolated position and involves driving along some single track country lanes. This might not suit everybody! However, the views were spectacular and it was delightful to sit in the garden when the weather permitted. Anwen was a very considerate, friendly and helpful host and really made us feel at home. We also loved the luxury of our own private hot tub!
Caroline
Lovely cottage with large rooms. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Only reason for reduced rating on comfort was that mattress was a bit soft for my husband.
Claire
Anwen could not have been more pleasant, leaving birthday banners for me, and just generally welcoming, the cottage is lovely, the bedrooms are fabulous, and the views are spectacular, would stay again in a heartbeat.
Christopher
Although the glorious weather was a fabulous bonus we could not fault Ysgubor Barn, we were met at the door by Anwen the owner who showed us around the cottage and its superb facilities. Anwen gave us lots of information about the local area and things to do further afield. We are a family of five my wife and I, our daughter and partner and our four year old grandson, the cottage met our needs perfectly with a ground floor bedroom and bathroom for the old folks and the younger ones upstairs in two bedrooms with a shared bathroom. The cottage is on a working farm in the middle of nowhere, the only noise came from the farm animals and the occasional tractor. That said it is only a five minute drive to Abergele with a good selection of shops and a large Tesco, fifteen to twenty minutes takes you Colwyn Bay with its super beaches. In thirty minutes you can be in the beautiful Victorian seaside town of Llandudno or Conway with its thirteenth century castle and Thomas Telford bridge. All in all this cottage has it all and we would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful break but with lots of attractions close by.
