Just a couple minor issues the shower head needs replacing and we found the size of the single beds to small for adults maybe 3ft wide would be more comfortable but this wouldn't stop us booking the cottage again.

Gave us a good base to explore the fabulous countryside around Llangollen. Very convenient to Aldi and the ever present A5. However, with the ramped up "summer price" it was not good value for money, and more cleaning and washing products would help guests to keep the property cleaner.
