A home-from-home in rural north-east Wales, this detached country cottage is the perfect getaway for any group of six. The two-storey holiday home has been lovingly updated with pastel accents, comfortable furnishings, and soft, fresh linens, creating a space you'll be eager to return to after a day of adventure. Set on the edge of the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape, this location offers a vast, stunning countryside filled with mountain peaks and rolling valleys, all waiting to be explored. Step outside to discover pathways, trails, and cycle routes right from your doorstep.

Enjoying a lovely, rural location, the cottage is surrounded by a spacious, wrap-around garden with an enclosed area for children to play. A furnished patio with a BBQ also offers a fantastic space for al fresco dining. Step inside through the utility room, and you'll instantly feel at home. The kitchen/diner is a light, airy space with handsome beams and a vaulted ceiling, creating a welcoming atmosphere. After mealtimes, retire to the adjacent lounge, where cushy seating, a Smart TV, and a wood burner invite you to relax and unwind when the weather turns cooler. The cottage features three bedrooms spread across two floors: a double downstairs and a king-size and twin under the property's charming eaves. The upstairs bedrooms each have an en-suite, while a downstairs shower room completes the property's offering.

Nearby, explore the border town of Wrexham (5.5 miles), famous for its local football club, which has recently gained celebrity attention. Catch a Wrexham FC game, visit the football museum, or enjoy the indoor market, science centre, and music venue.
