Tara Spa Reviews

Beautiful house, with everything, can't wait to go back
Jennifer
What an amazing place to stay and couldnt recommend highly enough. We had booked this for a week and could have stayed longer it was that good. It exceeded our expectations! The house was spotless on arrival and we were greeted by Alex who talked us through various elements of the house, which was great. Was also great knowing Alex was only a text away if we needed anything. We had a lovely hamper waiting on us which was totally unexpected and a lovely touch and was safe to say Alex and Caroline go above and beyond for the guests The house amenities were fantastic, well maintained and perfect for keeping us all occupied. An added bonus was the WiFi working throughout the house when some of us had no phone signal. Will definitely be booking again in future! Thank you all for a great stay
Ann Elaine
Excellent accommodation, everything in perfect order. The hosts Caroline and Alex are two of the loveliest people and excel in making your stay most enjoyable. The swimming pool, hot tub and pool table make a family holiday fun for all ages. The location of the accommodation is close to many attractions . We hope to return soon.
Rachel
The house is beautiful and the children loved the pool! We had a great family holiday and the owner was super helpful. Thank you
Excellent property. Clean, facilities fantastic,lovely setting in a village community and not far from many other North Wales attractions. Alex the host was very attentive monitoring pool and hot tub conditions remotely and addressing changes in water conditions when needed and notifying us before a short visit to address them. Can't fault the holiday stay and would definitely re visit.
Had the most amazing time at Tara Spa. The owners were extremely helpful and the house is finished to a very high standard. The perfect setting for my 50th birthday celebrations with the family. We will most definitely be visiting again!
Graham
Tara Spa is a superb place to stay. Has everything you need and want. The pool was lovely and warm as the hot tub. Comfy beds too. Ideally situated we really enjoyed our stay.
We had a lovely stay at your beautiful house. The swimming pool and the pool table were a big hit with the adults and kids alike as the weather was a bit wet and windy. Recommend the milk shakes from the local farm. Thanks again for everything.
We had the most amazing time at Tara Spa. The house was beautiful, pristine clean and every home comfort you could think of was there. The children absolutely loved the pool. A big thank you to Alex and Caroline for having us and making us feel truly welcome, we look forward to coming again.
Wonderful long weekend at Tara Spa with family. Met all expectations and easily the best rental weve ever stayed in and weve been doing this 20years. Immaculately clean and all features top notch. Alex is the perfect host. We made thorough use of the pool, gym, pool table and hot tub. The Dining room served perfectly for our medieval murder mystery evening which was hilarious. Minor details we found the constant hum in the ensuite room over the pool disturbing but unfortunately had the two lightest sleepers in there. We like to cook and would have liked some more robust utensils. However these are minor details far outweighed by the positives and would highly recommend Tara Spa to anybody. We would definitely consider returning something we never do which is a testament to the fabulous time we had. Thank you
The property was absolutely stunning! ! Everything has been well thought out, perfect property for a relaxing holiday
Tracey

Sharon
Tara Spa is a beautiful property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Alex and Caroline have thought of everything in the house. The added extras like the pool, hot tub and gym are incredible and made for a perfect stay. The technological touches like the ceiling speakers and electronic bidet toilets are very advanced and were a talking point for all of the guests! We loved our time here. We really enjoyed the local area toothe milk dairy is just a short walk away and Prestatyn is ten minutes away. Lovely property and a really attentive host. Thank you.
Charlene
The house is beautiful and has very handy gadgets and is spotless. The toilets wow what can I say unbelievable never had an experience like it before haha. The location is fantastic and not far from a farm which has great produce to buy. Alex was very attentive to the party giving accurate information about the house and left a beautiful hamper for the guests to enjoy. The pool and the hot tub were fantastic really enjoyed the stay. Thank you.
The property was everything we were looking for. The grandkids were in the pool for hours on end and the hot tub was very popular with the adults. The location was great quiet countryside but very close to a nice restaurant. The host, Alex, was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
Michelle
Just returned from the most amazing week away at this stunning home. Was met on arrival by owner Alex, so friendly and welcoming and a tour of the property was given. A welcome hamper included in the initial meet to set the start of out holiday nicely. Detailed information was on hand in a welcome pack but to meet Alex and for him to give us relevant information was a nice touch and was happy to answer anything we needed and nothing was too much trouble and he was happy to be contacted if required. The house is absolutely stunning and has everything you need. The swimming pool and hot tub just add to the perfect holiday retreat. Not often a toilet is a talking point but they in themselves are an experience! No matter what ages go to Tara Spa there is something for everyone. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the amazing place to anyone, thank you Alex for allowing us to make the most amazing memories.
Alex the owner was brilliant very friendly & helpful couldnt do enough for us. House was amazing lots of space & very modern!! Kitchen sink tap took some getting used to & toilets very different but fun, 5year old grandson loved the warm seat!! Pool, hot tub & pool table used every day. Great garden safe for the kids. Farm up the road worth a visit great milk shakes. Had a brilliant stay would highly recommend it & we would love to visit again!
The house lived up to all our expectations. This was a family reunion consisting of 10 people aged from 10 to 75. Everyone had a wonderful time. We were a bit surprised that we had to strip the beds and put all the bedding and towels next to the washing machine. The only other thing was that everyone had problems using the electronic kitchen tap.
Absolutely amazing house so much to do and spotlessly clean. The Japanese toilets were certainly quite an experience! Alex was such a wonderful host greeting us with an excellent starter hamper and being on hand for any queries, nothing was too much trouble.
Caroline
An outstanding property in lovely surroundings, which was thoroughly enjoyed for a week by our extended family. Facilities were amazing and host Alex was very attentive.The swimming pool was a great addition and well used by our little ones,and with the property having several sitting areas both indoors and outdoors,we did not feel on top of one another at all.Plenty to do and see in the surrounding area.Highly recommend this property.
Richard
The house is very modern, well maintained and well kitted out for ten people. The kids 2x16, 1x12 and 1x74 loved the pool, the hot tub and games room with pool table are great additions, The property is in a quiet location with some lovely views.
Michael
We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay in this wellequipped cottage with its superb facilities. We particularly enjoyed the swimming pool, and the hot tub was a nice relaxing treat. Alex was the perfect host. The welcome basket of provisions was particularly useful and a very kind gesture.
Alex and Caroline provided the perfect retreat. We could not find fault with anything. Over the years, as a family we have taken holidays in Villas abroad and we can honestly say that Tara Spa has been the best. On arrival the house was spotlessly clean. The swimming pool, gym and pool table were much enjoyed and the surrounding countryside and easy within beach at Prestatyn made it perfect. Alex greeted us with a guided tour of the house and the welcome pack was greatly appreciated.
We had the most fantastic time at Tara Spa with 6 adults and 2 children a 2 year old and 3 months old. The property is very large and modern throughout. The up to date technology was a real plus for us smart TVs fancy toilet seats and taps etc. The kitchen was really well stocked. The facilities are amazing, the pool is much bigger than it looks on the pictures pictures. There is also a hot tub a pool room and a gym. All well maintained and clean. An unexpected surprise was how nice the garden was. A couple of our group love watching garden birds and there are so many in the garden. The owners are just on hand if you need anything and the property manual is very informative.
Matthew
Alex and co couldn't have been more accommodating if they tried and wow the house is stunning, has absolutely everything you could ever dream of, the pool is fantastic, as is the hottub and BBQ. The Gym too!! It is all fantastic, a fantastic house and a lovely owner. Lovely birthday week with my friends and would highly recommend. Wish we could've stayed longer. We wish we could've been a bit louder during our stay but completely appreciate there are surrounding houses and neighbours that needed to be respected. Otherwise flawless Thanks guys 3
We where met and shown everything on arrival. Had everything we required for our family break. Family loved our break. Thanks Alex and Caroline.
One of the best holiday homes we have ever been too and we have been to loads, Tara Spa is Amazing and so are the hosts Alex and Caroline, only a textcall away and nothing is too much trouble for them, it truly is beautiful inside and out, The rooms are all very spacious and welcoming, i can not recommend this beautiful accomodation enough. ... Its in a very quiet area too with a little milk dairy up the road thats sells some bizarre flavours of fresh milkshake among other things too. Give it a try you really wont be disappointed
This holiday home is truly amazing. We stayed for four nights and had the best time, it was pure luxury. The house was spotless and so comfortable, everything you could ever need is provided. The pool was fabulous, it kept the children entertained for hours. The hot tub was lovely to relax in and the pool table was a great bonus. We were greeted at the property by Alex, who was very accommodating. He showed us around and how everything worked, he was so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. There was a welcome hamper which was filled with everything you could need to start your holiday, even two lovely bottles of wine. This holiday has left us all feeling relaxed and we have had so much fun. This has made some lovely memories for our family to treasure. We cant thank Alex and Caroline enough. We will definitely be back! Sarah Williams and family
Denise

Gerald
We were stunned at the magnificence of this property and its facilities. Beyond our expectations. Five adults and five children had a wonderful time. Thanks again to Alex and Caroline for their welcome flowers, wine and foods. Excellent hosts!
Had a lovely relaxing time at Tara Spa. Luxurious accommodation and excellent facilities. Really enjoyed the swimming pool and hot tub. Owner Alex was very helpful and informative. We were there for our Ruby Wedding Anniversary and would highly recommend Tara Spa to celebrate special occasions as well as holidays. Plenty of space and private grounds. The best cottage holiday and Anniversary we have had.
Joanne
Amazing house. Immaculately clean and luxurious. The pool and hot tub were fantastic, and what can I say about those toilets! On my Christmas list! Booked for my Dads 80th birthday celebration and we had a lovely time relaxing in the house. We are relatively local anyway so booked purely for the property but there are loads of great places to visit close by Chester Zoo, Chester, Cheshire Oaks, Liverpool to name but a few. Owners are brilliant and there on hand if you need them which we didnt. Would highly recommend
Absolute fantastic stay great location very quiet and peaceful the house was spotless and very high tech we all loved the gym pool and hot tub thankfully the weather was with us so we made use of the BBQ only a short drive to Prestatyn where there is M&S Tesco Aldi Lidl and a lovely butchers on the high street so plenty of choice for your food shop our hosts were fantastic and Alex could'nt do enough overall the best holiday we have had no more going abroad for us. Thank you.
Antony
The house and hosts were fantastic , a real jem we have found and will be returning again next year.
Tare Spa is a very spacious house and is finished to a very high standard and is a wonderful place to stay. Our grandchildren loved the pool and the adults enjoyed the hot tub, we all also enjoyed the pool table and gym. The outside space was larger than expected and was fully equipped for dining and relaxing outside. We cooked for a family of 9 and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. Alex, Caroline and their family were friendly and welcoming and we would love to return. We would highly recommend Tara Spa.
A wonderful holiday experience for a group mix of teenagers through to grandparents something for everyone in a lovely home in beautiful surroundings. A perfect way to spend a 50th wedding anniversary.Thank you to the owner Alex for bringing personal touches and making it feel like a second home .
Sujata
We have just had the most amazing week away in this absolutely wonderful hidden gem! I would highly recommend this place.
Carole
The house was even better than the online photos! Everything was spotlessly clean and the house was beautiful and tastefully furnished. We were an extended family of six adults and three youngsters ranging from 15 years to 11 months and we all loved the indoor pool area and spacious games room. The outside area with the hot tub was great too. There are also some beautiful places to visit where the scenery is quite stunning. We had a wonderful week stay. Our hosts Alex and Caroline couldnt have been more helpful and we would love to return
Jacqueline
Wow what a truly lovely house. There was plenty of room for our party of eight and the house would definitely cater for a few more. We certainly have no complaints. The owners were very helpful and accommodating and we look forward to our return visit.
