A luxurious cottage set in idyllic private grounds with a hot tub and endless walks on your doorstep. Sleeping eight guests across four gorgeous bedrooms, this rural country property offers everything you could need to experience a slower pace of life in the tranquil North Wales scenery.

Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life in this beautiful, welcoming house. Drop off the bags and make your way into the cosy lounge for a sit down, where slate floors, exposed beams and sumptuous sofas encourage you to put your feet up. Set within a brick fireplace, the wood burner will warm the cockles after a day rambling the mountains, before the chef of the group rustles up something delicious on the Rayburn. Sink into the L-shaped sofa in the second living room, where you can curl up with a good book, or rally the troops in the games room for some light-hearted competition. Upstairs, soak tired muscles in the Victorian roll-top bath, ahead of turning in to one of four pretty bedrooms. In the morning, serve up breakfast in the spacious garden with a fresh pot of tea on hand. Take a dip in the hot tub, or make the most of sunny weather with a sunbathing session on the lawn, before cooling off in the ground-floor wet room beneath the rainfall shower.

Commanding panoramic views over the luscious Welsh hillside, this property has endless walks right from the doorstep. Walkers and cyclists will love the heather-clad trails of Offa’s Dyke, the Horseshoe Pass and World’s End to name a few (within 15 miles). Discover enigmatic Iron Age hillforts, majestic castles and quiet country churches, and finish in one of the trail’s enticing country pubs. Fill your cupboards with local produce from the historic town of Corwen (5 miles), where independent shops, boutiques and eateries are available to peruse at your leisure. Pick up a unique find at the artisan market held in the thriving market town of Ruthin (10 miles) with even more quaint shops and a lively modern arts scene.

The hosts at Maerdy Uchaf were extremely welcoming and helpful. The location in extremely rural, with the property being on a working farm. This provides the perfect opportunity for exploring the surrounding area. The cottage was as you would expect for a period property with a number of quirky features. It was well laid out, decorated and maintainRead moreed. The kitchen was well equipped, something I am always grateful for in self-catering accomodations. Couldn't have asked for anything more, would definitely book again when looking for somewhere with a slightly bigger group. Hide
