Lovely cottage and well equipped.. With little touches that was welcoming. The owners were very helpful. Not as isolated as the pictures show you have to pass the owners home then another cottage to get to the Old Barn, with shared gravelled area. Saying that it was a good base for north Wales.

This cottage has a very good selection of books, cd's & DVD's which we have never had before.. It was nice knowing that we had so many facilities even though we did not use them all. We will be back. Great place.

Had an excellent time at "The Old Barn".. Cottage was clean, spacious and owners extremely helpful (given ideas of local walks and pubs etc) and friendly. Excellent views of surrounding area and within walking distance of nearby Moel Famau which has great views of surrounding area. Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful two weeks in this pretty cottage, there was everything we needed.. The owners were on hand close to the Old Barn, they were very welcoming but not intrusive. The fact that we could bring our beloved chihuahua was an added bonus. Would recommend it. We would love to return as there is so much to see and do on the area.

5*plus. A dogs lovers dream.. This was The Jewel in the Crown. We didn't want to leave. So many places to visit and our dogs had a wonderful time. Owners were so welcoming.

We have booked a number of holidays with you over the last few years and this one was probably the best aided by some unexpected fine welsh weather .. The cottage was well appointed and perfectly laid out for 2 people and a dog

A nice cosy little cottage, very private and the surrounding countryside is beautiful. There were stunning walks on the doorstep, and if you have a child there is a fantastic woodland park 300m away.

The Old Barn exceeded our expectations. It was in a peaceful location in a beautiful setting with terrific dog walks nearby. The owners made us most welcome from the minute we arrived and were very helpful throughout our stay. The cottage was very clean and every little detail was thought of. It was our first stay here and we would definitely visit again. We would highly recommend this property to our family and friends.

The Old Barn was a great place to stay and the location was ideal for walkers, yet close enough to amenities to be able to go shopping and sightseeing.

Stayed for one week and surpassed all expectations. Lovely welcome from the new owners who have thought of everything to make your stay most enjoyable. A stay here would be lovely any time of year. Plenty of dog-walking in the surrounding area. The Old Barn was very clean and well equipped. On the lower floor the living area, combined with the kitchen and dining area (within the conservatory) give all the room you need for a comfortable stay. A large modern bathroom adjoins the mezzanine bedroom. There is a wardrobe and drawers which provide plenty of storage for clothes. Plenty of clean towels are provided in the bathroom. Radiators are placed throughout the cottage, should you need them. Car parking at the rear of the property. There is also a patio area with seating for outdoor living. This was our first visit but we will definitely return again, and would recommend this property to family and friends.
