Fantastic property with amazing views and friendly host.
What an absolute gem of a place , perfect location and absolutely idyllic. We had everything we needed , the hot tub was well used as was the log burner. Lots of goodies were left for us by the Hosts who were helpful and very approachable . Not forgetting Gus who was adorable. Would highly recommend and will be returning.

Michelle
Me and my partner have had the most perfect relaxing week here. Such a warm welcome from the owner. The accommodation is outstanding, comfy, so clean, had everything and more required for our stay. Special mention for Gus, their working sheepdog he's so friendly and amazing to watch at work. Nothing at all to fault with this holiday home we had the best time, thank you.
Alison
Best place we have ever stayed! Situated in a remote location,the house is beautiful,views are incredible. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming and responded to any queries straight away. The photos do not do the house justice. The rooms are all huge and traditionally furnished. The beds were extremely comfortable. Lots of different seating areas inside and out if you want a bit of peace to read. Hot tub was fantastic. I must echo what everyone else says about Gus the sheepdog, what a character. My son is scared of dogs but Gus won him over,he is such a gentle dog. Will definitely return here. We loved it.
Sandra
We enjoyed a lovely family holiday in beautiful countryside with stunning views. The house was simply perfect and Lindsay was always very kind and helpful.
Beautiful farmhouse wonderful location very friendly hosts
We could not fault the property,. It certainly lives up to its listing, providing everything a family could require and more. The views and tranquil setting were excellent. The hot tub, and games room particularly the pool table, and pac man games machine kept us all entertained when we returned from our full on days exploring North Wales. The hosts were on hand and responded promptly to any enquiriesrequests. We would certainly stay again and recommend to others as well.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Stables. The location is absolutely fantastic with views right across the valley. The house is large, spacious, and well furnished with plenty of games to keep you entertained including a pool table if the weather drives you in doors. However sitting in the jacuzzi watching the sun set across the valley is something I'll never forget.
My friend group had an amazing stay at the property was exactly as it appeared in pictures with great facilities including the games room which was a particular favourite of ours! Lindsay was a lovely host and as with others we particularly enjoyed having Gus the sheepdog's visits throughout our stay. Would absolutely stay again for another visit and would recommend to others as well.

Amazing property for a family gathering Grandma, son's and their partners, and three grandchildren. Something for everyone. The children loved the baby lamb and adored Gus
Beverley
Absolute gem of a place. Loved every minute of our stay. Wonderful facilities and the hosts were wonderful too
Alexandra
We had a fantastic stay at the Stables, the property was beautiful, so homely, with incredible views and all the amenities we could ever need . .. and even more so with the games room the pacman machine was a hit with the whole family, it wasn't just the children trying to compete for the high score of the holiday! The owners lived just a house away so were so helpful if anything cropped up that needed them and they were always very happy to help. We would definitely stay here again!
The property was spotless with everything you need to enjoy your stay. The owners were very friendly & super helpful. Would highly recommend
Steven
Fantastic stay to celebrate new year. Property is very spacious inside and out. Enjoyed the games room and the views from the hot hub are stunning. We all miss Gus! He is adorable. Hope to return one day.
Louise
The Stables were lovely for a week at Christmas. Rich and Lindsay dressed it for Christmas with a beautiful real Christmas tree and other festive decorations. Nothing was too much trouble. Loved the views and peace and quiet and Gus the dogs daily visits
Sophie
A beautiful home, lovingly decorated and well equipped for a holiday rental. The hosts had very kindly decorated for Christmas even a beautiful Christmas tree! My family and I had the most wonderful time cooking in the large kitchen and relaxing in the hot tub! The hosts were very friendly and accommodating which made us feel even more welcome even their lovely dog Gus! We were absolutely amazed by the views of the Clywdian range and over the fields. Such a wonderful experience, would thoroughly recommend!
Sharon
Absolutely beautiful. Stunning countryside. Cottage was spacious, quirky, clean and the beds were very comfortable. Everything we needed for the weekend was taken care of, even down to tea towels for the kitchen. Hot tub was a massive hit for both adults and children. Nothing too much trouble for Lindsay when we needed to call her. Added bonus was watching Angus the sheep dog rounding up sheep on his own, brilliant.
Louise
Thank you for a lovely couple of days. You are wonderful hosts. What a fabulous place! So big, yet so cosy. Our 13 year old loved the pool table as did we! We felt so welcome and warm in your wonderful property and look forward to returning. It was amazing to have your sheepdog Gus accompany us on our walks he knew exactly where to go!
Stephen
A little drop of Welsh gold! We enjoyed a perfect short stay at The Stables. We were so impressed that we have booked our summer holiday here too. The location is beautiful, the amenities in the cottage effuse love and thought and the host is wonderful but not intrusive. You could not ask for a better stay and we are counting down the days until our next visit.
Joanne
Beautiful property! Perfect location!
We had a lovely stay at The Stables recently. It is a gorgeous property in a picturesque location and we made full use of all the facilities. Kids loved the games room and to sit out in rathe hot tub of an evening looking out over the hills is really special. Owner was on hand to help if needed, as was the dog Gus who was a massive hit with everyone. Roads in and out are a bit of fun for the car suspension and the absence of any 4G signal makes the satnav obsolete at times but it all adds to the fun! We loved it!!
Bernard
The cottage was terrific very spacious with the most comfortable beds ever
Rowena
We really enjoyed our few days in the house, scenerylocation beautiful and facilities great, owners were helpful and quick to answer any questions we had. Thank you!
Judith
This was such a beautiful cottage, its a must to go the rooms are huge and so lovely you have a great hot tub and all round seating in the garden everybody enjoyed the games room playing pool. Every time we left Gus the farm dog would greet us so lovely. The only thing I would have liked is a radio or trying the kitchen with this being the hub of the cottage plus we are on O2 and could only use the phone by the hub. Be careful on the very narrow roads on the way to the cottage.. but its well worth the most beautiful views. Oh also great to be greeted by the owner with the keys.
Stephanie
The most beautiful little stay. We couldn't believe our luck when we turned up. Nobody had not one complaint it was perfect and we cannot wait to come back.
Andrew
A lovely cottage with beautiful views over the Welsh countryside and very well equipped, we especially enjoyed the games room, the hot tub, and Gus the farm sheepdog who was always there to say hello and greet us on our return after a day out.
Christine
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Stables last week. The owners met us on arrival and showed us how everything worked, advised that we could contact them at any point during our stay if we encountered any problems or required advice. We made full use of the hot tub with lovely views over the fields.My husband thought we would be able to walk to the local pub as was about 1,5 miles on the map. This road was quite narrow & not really suitable for walking. We chose to drive to the local pub The Red Lion, where we enjoyed a lovely meal, can recommend the curries. Many places to visit, we enjoyed Conwy and the zipline at Penrhynn quarry, also Snowdonunfortunately due to weather we didn't reach the summitt ! We had a lovely holiday in a beautiful cottage.
Everything from start to finish was easy. Loved the cottage and the owners couldn't have been more accommodating. Always felt they were there if needed, but didn't impose. The hot tub was fantastic and the beds very comfy. A very relaxing stay, just what we needed.
George
Lovely cottage and a great host in Lindsay. Only slight downside was dodgy WiFi but suspect this comes with the territory. Hot tub was great!
Amanda
Great location and amazing house.
