Nant yr Hendre Reviews

This cottage exceeded expectations. Spotlessly clean, really cosy and welcoming. A listing where the photos dont do the cottage justice! Great space and location, straight out the front door and able to walk the Clwydian Range. Glenda has really thought of everything you might need, and more leaving a freshly made cake for us to enjoy with a cuppa. Definitely return again. Thank you.
A lovely place surrounded by stunning countryside. Glenda is warm and helpful, she pops in to see all is ok. Every thing you need is here. We hope to come back and have recommended this great place to stay to friends. Thanks.
Cynthia
Very pleasant accommodation in a lovely location.
Fantastic place had a Brill time didnt want to leave thankyou
Herman
This cottage had everything we needed and more! With 3 kids ages 13, 15 and 17, the extra bathroom was very welcome. Perfect WiFi, lovely jacuzzi. And we all loved the homemade cake from the very friendly owner. Our stay was absolutely perfect!
John-paul
Property was first class and owner was very welcoming
We really enjoyed our stay, it was very relaxing. My family loved using the hot tub. Glenda's a very thoughtful host and checked that we were OK
Christina
As a family of 5, we thoroughly enjoyed our week at Nant yr Hendre. We all found the cottage extremely comfortable and equipped with all facilities. We were able to travel to several places enjoying the beautiful scenery wherever we went. Glenda, the owner of the cottage, was very obliging and her cakes were something else. Absolutely delicious. Would definitely book again in the future.
What a perfect holiday, The cottage had everything one would need, home from home. The owners went above and beyond, always on hand if needed,Christmas tree, lemon cake and extra logs for the fire. Not forgetting the amazing brownies mid meek.The cottage made our Christmas stay so special they even put a xmas tree up. The hot tub was perfect and is emptied cleaned and refilled after every visitors stay, we went to chirk castle, Conwy, Welsh mountain zoo, Llangollen, Ruthin, we will definitely return. There has been comments about the cockerel ! It made our stay what do you expect staying in the country! Thank you so much Glenda & Clwyd you made our 1st Christmas with out my dad so nice and memorable xxx
Absolutely fantastic cottage it had everything we needed it was perfect. We will definitely be coming again!
Christine
The accommodation is superb. It's very clean, spacious and comfortable. There are lots of walks from the doorstep. The Sunday lunch at The Three Pigeons pub was excellent. The only down side is the first two days we we woken each day at 430am by the next door neighbour's cockerel which is situated about 6m from the bedroom window which left us extremely tired for the first weekend.
Joanne
What a lovely place to stay. The house is beautiful. Glenda was so friendly and helpful. The lemon cake was gorgeous and with staying 2 weeks we received a 2nd one!! Yum yum. We will definitely return.
Rachael
A beautiful holiday home in a perfect location. The photos do not do this cottage justice. Lovely lemon cake upon our arrival too! Will happilyhopefully stay again
Pauline
Beautiful location very peaceful. cottage was very comfortable and clean lots of little extras there that you would normally have to buy. Lovely cake was very much appreciated. would definitely go back again .one of the best cottages we have visited .
Nant yr Hendre is like a home from home. It is beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. The location is lovely and the hot tub is an added bonus. This was our second visit and I'm sure we will return.
Malcolm
Just what we were looking for at this time quiet, remote and a great hot tub.
We spent the week here just after lockdown a much needed break! The cottage was beautiful and spotlessly clean. The kitchen is stocked well with just about every utensil you could need. We didn't fancy eating out in the current climate but made fabulous meals in the cottage. There's a Tesco not far away, and a large Morrisons in Wrexham so we were able to stock up for the week on arrival. The beds are comfy and rooms spacious enough with plenty of drawer and cupboard space. There's a few dvd's that you can watch, and there's even a landline phone in the cottage mobile reception isn't that great, but there's wifi to connect to. There are still a lot of places closed due to the covid pandemic, but we found lots to do regardless. We spent a day at the Welsh Mountain Zoo which was fabulous take a picnic as there's only one coffee shop open and not much choice for eating. We went to Llandudno for the day and took the cable cars on The Great Orme amazing views! Watch out for the seagulls on the beautiful pier though took the ice cream right out of my little boys hand!! We also spent a day at Talacre beach really nice beach and the lighthouse is beautiful. We had a wonderful, relaxing week at Nant Yr Hendre, and did not want to leave! The hot tub was a hit with all of us and we used it every day at least once. There's a barbecue which we used when the weather was sunny, and there's so much space for the kids to play safely too. I would highly recommend this cottage and we hope to return next year
Location, private, great hot tub, comfortable and well equipped cottage. Owners not obtrusive would visit again.
The holiday barn was lovely and spacious and all the bedrooms were large in size. Parking was excellent too! The beds were comfy and there was plenty of space to relax on the sofas in the lounge. The kitchen was lovely and had everything we needed and the large dining table provided plenty of space to entertain.
Bernice
Many thanks for the lovely cake we were met with on arrival ! ! It's a lovely cottage and we all really enjoyed the hot tub!!nice and warm too!
What a relaxing place to spend a holiday. Found plenty to do and places to visit nearby. The hot tub was so wonderful especially after a day of sightseeing.
Bridget
The cottage is finished and furnished to a high standard in a quiet and idylic location. The kitchen is well equipped and clean. The layout, rooms and furnishings are homely and welcoming. The outside area is complimented with patio furniture and hot tub. They offered us the opportunity to relax and unwind whilst watching the cows and sheep in meadow.
The cottage was beautifully presented and we were sorry to leave ! We had everything we needed and the hot tub was an added bonus. Nearby, there are plenty of things to do, including walks along the stunning Clwydian range. We were even treated to a freshly baked home made cake on arrival.
Fantastic holiday. wonderful location. Hot tub a massive hit with the children and us! cottage has everything you need and more ! perfect for families !
Alison
A stunningly beautiful cottage in a very quiet peaceful village. Amazing scenery plenty to do with a short drive to Chester, Wrexham and the coast. The cottage is immaculately clean, lots of attention to detail so your stay is a home from home, the private hot tub is a perfect addition. 100 recommend and definitely would go back.
Stephen
Third visit to this cottage , Just as good as the first time .
Location and bungalow was perfect. Fantastic area for joggingwalking and a lovely hot tub to rest. Wanted for nothing.
The cottage was fantastic, even better than the description on the website. The small touches make such a big difference, like a cupboard with toys and games for the kids to play with, separate towels for the hot tub, tea, coffee, milk and a freshly baked cake on arrival so you can have a brew straight away. The setting in a quiet little village is idyllic.
Really spacious cottage in an ideal location for exploring the area. Good access but quiet apart from the local wildlife! Hot tub lovely and owner even had extra towels and flip flops. Would definitely return.
Amazing stay. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The owners had even left us a cake and a bottle of fresh milk so we could have tea or coffee as soon as we arrived. The best holiday we've had in a long time.
Natasha
Amazing cottage, nothing was too much for the owners, very helpful
Anthony
If we could find a cottage with all these facilities in a location we have not visited before and was not too far to travel from home, we would book it for 2018.
A superb cottage in a very tranquil setting. Fabulous hot tub and BBQ, ideal for total relaxation and thoroughly recommended.
Adelaide
Nant yr Hendre is a beautiful cottage with fabulous wooden beams throughout and period features of an old barn but it is fully modernised and with well thought out accommodation and furnishings. Under floor heating and the log burner kept the whole place toasty during our subzero week! The setting was amongst lush rolling hills with a fencedoff stream bordering the property which attracted lots of wildlife. 10 minutes from Ruthin supermarkets, chip shop etc but local pub is closer! We found the owners and neighbours kind and helpful when we needed them too. Would highly recommend this cottage and we will definitely return!
Siobhan
We were a group of 2638 year old's with no children and spent 3 nights over New Year's at the lovely Nant Yr Hendre. This cottage barn conversion exceeded our expectations and the pictures do not do this place justice. The underfloor heating kept everywhere warm and snug. The beds were the comfiest we have stayed in. The shower's were both hot and powerful. The owners couldn't of been nicer and made the stay really special for us. There is a lovely traditional pub the three pigeons less than a mile away and Ruthin centre was less than 10 mins drive away. We will most definetly be coming back.
Joanne
Really lovely cottage. Owner very helpful and makes a superb cake. Cittage facilites very good and the owners have clearly put alot of time and consideration when putting the cottage together
Justin
Owner was very friendly, the log burner was fantastic. All in all a great week away.
Louise
The location was stunning and a perfect location to visit other places. The cottage was exactly as described, well equipped and was perfect for a lovely family holiday.
