The Funky Flat in Denbighshire | Cottage With a Hot Tub

About The Funky Flat

The Funky Flat is a quirky and unique, three-bedroom apartment resting in the heart of Holywell, a bustling market town in North Wales, thoughtfully set out for relaxation in mind. Boasting nearby off-road parking space, an enclosed roof terrace, and a collection of tastefully-presented, vibrant interiors, this charming retreat makes an ideal base for a family or group of six friends looking for a refreshing, self-catered escape near the brilliant Clwydian Range And Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Ascend the rear staircase up to your new home-from-home, whereupon you will be immediately greeted by an impressive roof terrace, enclosed and housing sun loungers, outdoor dining furniture, and an indulgent hot tub! Continue across the terrace to enter The Funky Flat, setting your belongings down in the hallway before you go on to explore the rest of your new abode.

On the first-floor, you will discover a well-equipped, galley-style kitchen, comprising all the appliances eager cooks will need to rustle up hearty, home-cooked meals, as well as an inviting sitting room, where you and your loved ones can kick back on the plush corner sofa or stylish armchair as you enjoy a film on the superb Sky Glass Smart TV. In the evenings, an elegant bathroom awaits you when you fancy a soak amongst the bubbles or a refreshing shower, whilst three decadent bedrooms are sumptuously-decorated and ready to whisk you off to a night of well-earned rest.

If you can tear yourself from your lovely new home, set out to explore what Holywell and the surroundings have to offer. The briefest of strolls will bring you to a wealth of independent pubs and eateries, such as The Boars Head, the Old Wine Vaults, Marmalade, and Kassidy’s Tea Room, whilst the Tesco Superstore sells homely essentials for you to stock up on throughout your stay.

The Funky Flat Reviews

We loved staying at the funky flat. It was very cosy with lots of space. The owners had put a lot of thought and love into the home and everything was well equipped. We spent alot of time in the home and was a great place to chill out with the hot tub and bbq made it and we went in Feb so can only imagine how good the flat would be in the summer. Thanks for the lovely stay.

Wesley

The flat is definitely funky! . The decor is great and very quirky with large rooms and comfortable beds. The main bedroom is huge and we enjoyed cosying up in the lounge in the evenings on comfortable sofas and Sky Glass TV. Location is good with plenty of shops, takeaways and pubs. It is easier to park at the rear of the flat where the entrance is and costs only 1.70 per day. We visited nearby Chester which has a great town centre and the local Green Heritage Walk was lovely with our dog. This would be an amazing base in the summer as there is a large terrace, hot tub, bbq and sun loungers.

Where do I start? Arrived last night to a fabulous property. The decor is quirky, classy and right up my street! Couldn't get a more central and has everything you need. Diane left us a handwritten note, a lovely welcome pack containing savoury goodies, water, cola and a chippy meal
