We stayed at this beautiful cottage for a week this April. We were met on arrival by Sue, who was very welcoming, pointing out areas of interest. The cottage itself was lovely, well presented and clean, everything we needed was there, a real home from home. My favourite room was the conservatory, enjoying breakfast whilst watching the birds.....fab. We would highly recommend this cottage, we will certainly try to stay there again when travelling to this area.

We had a lovely time, from the moment we arrived we were given a warm welcome till the moment we left.. We would highly recommend this cottage.

The property is easy to find, clean and tidy and we found the conservatory and garden were a very pleasant sun trap. The owner was also there to greet us and gave some helpful recommendations of places to visit. We will definitely use this cottage again.

Extra blankets and pillows were available and plenty of clean towels are provided. A very pleasant cottage that we would recommend. We look forward to returning to this cottage in the future.

Spent week staying in cottage and visiting family over Christmas. A lovely, clean, quiet cottage in a beautiful and ancient North Walian village. Fantastic walks and views on your doorstep. Great pub grub 50m away. Well appointed cottage with modern tasteful decor. Marks and Spencer food hall 15 minutes drive. It is a traditionally built 18th Century limestone cottage and despite very thick walls, double glazing and modern radiators it was at times a little slow to warm up. So bring slippers and dressing gowns in winter.

Mrs Berdahl

August 2013

Everything was perfect! It could not have been improved upon. Our home away from home was the best ever, and the owner was fantastic.

Mr Adams

September 2012

The fact that this was our seventh visit to Pen y Parc really says it all. It has everything you need in a top quality cottage.

Mrs Harrington

Lovely location in a quiet village.

July 2012

The owner was so helpful and welcoming when we first arrived. The house was clean and well kept. We had everything we needed for our stay. The conservatory at the rear was a real bonus space. The kids loved the cottage and didn't want to go home at the end of the week. There is however a steep staircase that may not be ideal for people with mobility problems or families with very young children; but our 4 year old coped very well. The location was ideal. There is a quiet pub opposite that serves fantastic down to earth food at a great price. You can leave the front door of the cottage and do a wonderful circular route across the fields that gives you an amazing view of Prestatyn and the coast. It is also well placed to explore everything that this part of Wales has to offer. I didn't realise that there was so much to do! We would love to go back.

Mrs Derbyshire

April 2012

Stunning location, quiet but convenient to the town. The warm welcome of the owner and the feeling of cleanliness and airiness when we first arrived at the property was much appreciated after a long journey.

This was a well equipped cottage full of character we really appreciated the spacious conservatory for meals and playing games etc. I loved the remoteness of the property and the local people were very friendly.

Pretatyn has a very friendly church called Calvary and the people were welcoming and very friendly this made our stay even more special

This cottage is ideally located, as long as you have a vehicle to get around. The countryside is beautiful and the townspeople are friendly. The cottage itself is beautiful - the owner has thought of all the small details and it is truly home away from home. The conservatory is wonder ful place to enjoy a meal, watching birds on the back lawn, or read a book. Stairway is quite steep but perfectly manageable.
