The stunning Fron Goch Farm, set in the Welsh valleys, is just an absolutely stunning home and was the perfect base for our large family holiday to celebrate a big birthday.
We had a party of 13 family members and we all had an incredible time. The size of the house is perfect and meant we all had our own space but could easily eat and socialise together on an evening.
The Orangerie was the highlight of the house for us with it's gorgeous wooden beams, and we spent the majority of our time in there.
The house is set in a great location with amazing views and it's own hill for the kids to explore with rope swings hidden away at the summit. There is a very nice scenic walk into the village of Llanfair Talhaiarn, which takes about 30 minutes, crossing the river. The village has a couple of lovely pubs with the pub food at the Black Lion being amazing.
The location of Fron Goch Farm is perfect and only a 15 to 40 minute journey to most local destinations such as Abergele, Gwrych Castle, Conwy and Llandudno. We would especially recommend a longer journey to Beaumaris, in Anglesey, with it's gorgeous village and moated castle.
The only slight downside of our trip was that the broadband to the house is slightly intermittent, and the WiFi to the TV room had issues for a lot of our stay. This was to be expected with the location and size of the house, but meant we couldn't use the TV in the TV room for much of our stay. We also found there to be no WiFi signal in the annex bedrooms but found that there is a 5G WiFi router in the games room which we moved into the annex for the duration of our stay, which was actually then the fastest and most stable connection.
Overall, we absolutely loved our trip to Fron Goch Farm and the owner, James, was in communication throughout and happy to help with any issues.
We would love to return in the future.
