Nant yr Hendre is like a home from home.. It is beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. The location is lovely and the hot tub is an added bonus. This was our second visit and I'm sure we will return.

We spent the week here just after lockdown - a much needed break! The cottage was beautiful and spotlessly clean. The kitchen is stocked well with just about every utensil you could need. We didn't fancy eating out in the current climate but made fabulous meals in the cottage. There's a Tesco not far away, and a large Morrisons in Wrexham so we were able to stock up for the week on arrival. The beds are comfy and rooms spacious enough with plenty of drawer and cupboard space. There's a few dvd's that you can watch, and there's even a landline phone in the cottage - mobile reception isn't that great, but there's wifi to connect to. There are still a lot of places closed due to the covid pandemic, but we found lots to do regardless. We spent a day at the Welsh Mountain Zoo which was fabulous (take a picnic as there's only one coffee shop open and not much choice for eating). We went to Llandudno for the day and took the cable cars on The Great Orme - amazing views! Watch out for the seagulls on the beautiful pier though - took the ice cream right out of my little boys hand!! We also spent a day at Talacre beach - really nice beach and the lighthouse is beautiful. We had a wonderful, relaxing week at Nant Yr Hendre, and did not want to leave! The hot tub was a hit with all of us and we used it every day at least once. There's a barbecue which we used when the weather was sunny, and there's so much space for the kids to play safely too. I would highly recommend this cottage and we hope to return next year :)

We spent a week at Nant Yr Hendre in July 2020 after some serious time in lockdown! From the very beginning the owner Glenda was a fantastic host, easy to contact, always on hand for advice and even made us some fantastic cakes for our arrival! The cottage is amazing, very well planned out and lots of space! Room sizes are great and the cottage is finished to an extremely high standard. We felt at home instantly and were so impressed with the beautiful space. The kitchen has everything you need, there's plenty of seating and a fabulous log burner with lots of logs! TV with free view, WiFi and dvd collection. 2 bathrooms, both spotless and all the bedroom furniture is solid wood which fits in perfectly with the exposed wooden beams in the cottage keeping in kin with its roots. It was lovely to see a photo of the original barn buildings in the visitor book too. Loads of storage space in the bedrooms and even hangers in the cupboards! The whole cottage was spotless. Not a spec of dust. Toilet roll and basic cleaning products were also provided. Most of the outside space is pebbled which is good for many games with the kids and the side of the cottage has a decent sized lawn also great for the kids. The hot tub is absolutely perfect and the owners even came midweek to clean and top up! The hot tub is a great size and temperature and perfect location to watch the sun set. Which brings me onto the views. The views are just wonderful and the cows in the adjacent field are super friendly. Saying hello to the chickens and cats next door was a little daily treat for the kids too. The location is great. Even though you have other houses around you feel suitably isolated and the local coop/tesco is just 3 miles away. If you're after eggs though, I'd recommend buying fresh from the next door neighbour £1.50 for 6 and you can say a personal thank you to the hens they came from! It's a great location to explore many places in North Wales esp with Llangollen only being 18 minutes away! Glenda recommended a nearby forest/river walk which was brilliant for the kids too! Honestly, it was a brilliant week away from city life, a much needed break in a beautiful setting. We will be back!

The holiday barn was lovely and spacious and all the bedrooms were large in size.. Parking was excellent too! The beds were comfy and there was plenty of space to relax on the sofas in the lounge. The kitchen was lovely and had everything we needed and the large dining table provided plenty of space to entertain.

Location and bungalow was perfect.. Fantastic area for jogging/walking and a lovely hot tub to rest. Wanted for nothing.

Mr Gowans

October 2018

The cottage was fantastic, even better than the description on the website.. The small touches make such a big difference, like a cupboard with toys and games for the kids to play with, separate towels for the hot tub, tea, coffee, milk and a freshly baked cake on arrival so you can have a brew straight away. The setting in a quiet little village is idyllic.

I cannot compliment this cottage enough! The position within the country is superb, it is facing into fields and even though there are a few houses around the cottage still feels very isolated! The decoration and detail within the cottage is excellent, it has very modern facilities, the kitchen has everything we needed and more! The hot tub has really been the highlight of our holiday! It is positioned very well and is very secluded! The cottage was very clean on arrival and the owners catered for our three children very well, they set up the cot bed for us and had a very good amount of indoor toys to keep them busy! The owners came through mid way throughout stay to see if everything was ok and to re balance the chemicals in the hot tub, which we thought was fantastic! The owners arranged for my 7 year old son to go in a tractor and plough one of the nearby fields! I can assure you this is an experience we will never forget! The local villagers are so friendly and helpful and have really made our stay so much welcoming! We stayed for a week, two adults and three children under 7! Thanks so much for a lovely stay and we will definitely be staying again next year!

Really spacious cottage in an ideal location for exploring the area.. Good access but quiet apart from the local wildlife! Hot tub lovely and owner even had extra towels and flip flops. Would definitely return.

Amazing stay.. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The owners had even left us a cake and a bottle of fresh milk so we could have tea or coffee as soon as we arrived. The best holiday we've had in a long time.

If we could find a cottage with all these facilities in a location we have not visited before and was not too far to travel from home, we would book it for 2018..

Mrs Trigwell

A superb cottage in a very tranquil setting.. Fabulous hot tub and BBQ, ideal for total relaxation and thoroughly recommended.

Mrs Orme

February 2017

Nant yr Hendre is a beautiful cottage with fabulous wooden beams throughout and period features of an old barn but it is fully modernised and with well thought out accommodation and furnishings.. Under floor heating and the log burner kept the whole place toasty during our sub-zero week! The setting was amongst lush rolling hills with a fenced-off stream bordering the property which attracted lots of wildlife. 10 minutes from Ruthin (supermarkets, chip shop etc) but local pub is closer! We found the owners and neighbours kind and helpful when we needed them too. Would highly recommend this cottage and we will definitely return!

Mrs Bradbury

We were a group of 26-38 year old's with no children and spent 3 nights over New Year's at the lovely Nant Yr Hendre.. This cottage / barn conversion exceeded our expectations and the pictures do not do this place justice. The underfloor heating kept everywhere warm and snug. The beds were the comfiest we have stayed in. The shower's were both hot and powerful. The owners couldn't of been nicer and made the stay really special for us. There is a lovely traditional pub the three pigeons less than a mile away and Ruthin centre was less than 10 mins drive away. We will most definetly be coming back.

We stayed here in March with friends. The cottage is beautiful and the setting is lovely over looking the side of a hill farm. The hot tub is brilliant and just what you need after a day's walking. There's lots to see and do around here and some fantastic local pubs. There is a book In the cottage with what to do locally. We read the reviews from other guests in the review book in the cottage and went with some of their suggestions. I would just like to ask the owner where she got the curtains in the kitchen from as they were stunning. Even the other guests have made comments on the furnishings! So if the owner does read this please let me know!

Mrs Farron

The accommodation here is first class. Very comfortable beds with top class bedding. The kitchen has everything you need and the lounge is very comfortable with comfy sofas. Bathrooms all excellent and the hot tub is an added bonus. Would definitely recommend

The standard of the furnishings and décor was of an exceptionally high standard and the use of the hot tub was very welcome after a long day.

I liked the fact that the owners had thought of everything that you could possibly need and want. The cottage was finished to a very high standard and the hot tub was amazing. We enjoyed our holiday that much, we extended stay for a extra night. The owners were only a phone call away if we needed anything and were very helpful to every request. I would definitely stay here again,and would recommend to others.

Very well appointed and beautifully presented property.

We had an amazing long weekend in this beautiful cottage. It's been renovated to a really high standard.with pretty much everything you could want - the best appointed kitchen of anywhere I've ever stayed, immaculate bathrooms, and spacious bedrooms with really luxurious linens and very comfortable beds. The hot tub was of course wonderful and it was lovely to sit with a glass of wine and enjoy the silence of the countryside. The owners were extremely helpful but also keen to ensure we had a great uninterrputed time - they had thought of everything. The local pub, the three pigeons, is a lovely place and we went for a great walk at the nearby Moel Famau hill which had stunning views. The owners had kindly asked in the guestbook for any suggestions for the way the place could be improved and none of us could think of a single thing, which speaks volumes. In high seasons the house seems fairly priced but for a group of friends in low season it is an absolute bargain and we're already planning our next trip to cheer up the dullness of wintertime.

Ms Marshall

Extremely well kept, modern cottage. Lots of space, lovely and warm. More than enough in terms of kitchen equipment. Games, super hot tub.

It was absolute joy to arrive at this lovely cottage. Everything you could wish for in the way of fittings and appliances is here and everything in pristine condition. It was wonderful to to have so much space. We could not have wished for a happier place in which to spend Christmas.

We stayed at Nant Yr Hendre in the bleak mid winter for our wedding anniversary. Gone are the days of romantic city breaks for two. Now it's a long weekend for five. After looking extensively at hotels with adjoining bedrooms we realised that a self catering cottage fulfilled our needs at a fraction of the cost. We asked ourselves, "what do we really want from our accommodation?" and the unanimous answer was a clean, luxurious space and a hot tub! Nant yr Hendre did not disappoint. In fact we were really quite overwhelmed on our arrival. The fire was lit, the under floor heating was running, there was fresh bara brith and real butter waiting on the kitchen table and all was well, after a somewhat lengthy journey. I could find no fault, and I am rather pernickety, and I can't rate the cottage highly enough. Go and find peace and tranquillity here, with a glass of wine in the hot tub, large fluffy towels, and the pristine crisp white sheets of the very comfortable beds. Enjoy the scenery and the beauty of North wales and come home feeling refreshed and ready to book your next stay at Nant yr Hendre.

This cottage is beautifully presented and furnished to a very high standard. There is plenty of space in the living areas which is very cosy thanks to the ground source heating and the lovely log burner. The bedrooms are again well furnished with comfortable beds and quality hotel standard linen and towels. Everything that you could possibly need was provided by the owners who were available should you require them. We could not fault anything at all at Nant yr Hendre and would recommend to all without any hesitation. Thank you for making our week in north Wales so relaxing

Susanstravel2013

Nant Yr Hendre did not disappoint. This extremely beautiful home had every detail thought of from the lovely finishing, furniture, dishware, bedding to toys for our 3 year old nephew to enjoy. The outside space was excellent with beautiful views of the Wales countryside. Within 1/2 mile was a great pub called the Three Pigeons which was so convenient for evening dinners when you didn't feel like cooking. The owners were so welcoming & readily available if we needed anything. I would definitely stay here again & highly recommend their wonderful home!

Mrs Burtney

July 2013

The accommodation was superb and the owners could not have been more helpful. We were very well looked after and are very grateful for the help we were given. We found the neighbours very friendly and there were lots of lovely places to go for a walk in the evening. We have very positive memories of our stay in this cottage and I would highly recommend it to other people.

Mrs Roberts

Nant yr Hendre is a little gem of a property. The property has been renovated to an exceptionally high standard and every little detail has been thought through very well independent.

Mrs Bird

We loved our stay at Nant yr Hendre. The very approachable and helpful owners live nearby, which is great. The setting is near perfect. It is a newly renovated house with a spacious open plan kitchen/lounge room area and three spacious bedrooms, which are all furnished with lovely chunky wooden tables, chairs, beds, cupboards and drawers. The house is uncluttered as well as spacious which is a joy to be in. The weather was quite hot when we were there but the temperature inside the house remained comfortable. We just opened doors and windows in the evening and got a nice breeze through the house, cooling it down. As for equipment, it had everything you could possibly want from a coffee plunger to candles, and a picnic basket! Much care and great attention to detail has gone into the design and provision of house and content, and it shows.
