Romantic retreat in an idyllic location overlooking a stocked fishing pond. Ideal for couples and their dog to relax, unwind and maybe fish. Pop to the local pub or into Mold, Hawarden or Chester with shops, pubs, and lots of local attractions and farm shops

A charming Welsh retreat nestled in the countryside is perfectly suited for two, and a true paradise for fishing enthusiasts – it comes with a well-stocked fishing pond brimming with carp and tench. You’ll be close to all the attractions of North Wales and the historic city of Chester (9 miles) where you can head for shopping and meals out. With one double bedroom, it’s great for a solo or a couples’ holiday, with one canine companion welcome to join you.

The property consists of a self-contained first-floor apartment accessible via external steps. You’ll enter directly into a kitchen area where you can whip up yummy dinners using local ingredients found during your travels. The dining table is in the lounge, offering a cosy spot for dining and chatting with your partner over wine. The sofa invites you to relax and catch up on your favourite TV shows on the Freeview TV. Perhaps the loveliest spot is the outside decked area, where you can sip morning coffee as you soak in the lovely views of the rolling countryside and fishing pond. If the mood strikes, light up the charcoal BBQ for an al fresco dining experience. Fishing enthusiasts are more than welcome to try their luck in the pond, fishing for carp and tench at their leisure.

You’ll be just under 2 miles from Hawarden, a village with some local pubs and cafes. Mold (6 miles) is renowned for its historical market and acclaimed theatre, so is also an excellent option for an afternoon out. For a dose of history and culture, head to the walled city of Chester which offers a rich tapestry of Roman and Tudor architecture, independent shops and exquisite eateries. Nature enthusiasts will love exploring the surrounding area, including river walks, Loggerheads and Moel Famau country parks (8.5 miles and 11.5 miles respectively) and the Clwydian Range (8.5 miles).

What a lovely clean comfortable flat in a beautiful location. The fishing was good enhanced by watching the families of ducks and moorhens. The owners Jenny and Ieuan were so kind and welcoming, and the boys Tom and Owen are happy to sell you eggs from the chickens they care for. What a pleasure it has been to stay here. Thank you

Lovely, self contained cottage next door to friendly hosts. Well equipped and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Hosts were welcoming and on hand if we needed anything. It is slightly rural location, so a car is recommended; with a car it's a good base for easy access to Chester and Wales.
