What our customers say about their holidays

  We had a wonderful relaxing break at the cabin.

  It was just what we needed and the location was perfect. It is just out of the way of the hustle and bustle if you want to shut yourself away & chill but also Llangollen & its amenities are very accessible if you wish to stretch your legs and explore. The river is truly beautiful and the local shops makes you feel like you’re on holiday. We visited further afield visiting Betws-y-coed, Conwy & Llandudno, would recommended all three places to truly see some of the beauties Wales has to offer. The aquaduct locally is also a wonderful sight to walk to and drive by. The horseshoe pass was an experience but worth it to see the breathtaking views. The bed was very comfortable, couch/living area were comfortable to sit and relax of an evening. We made use of the kitchen and cooked some meals aswell as trying out the local restaurants/takeaways. We used the hot tub every evening - the view from it is truly lovely especially under the stars. We used the table tennis facilities in the garage and there were plenty of games in the cupboard for us to use. The hot tub was easy to use and has cushioned steps making it very accessible. It is secluded or doesn’t have anything around it to cover it up from the other house on site (as I’d read on some other reviews) but that really didn’t bother us as the other property does have something on place to cover their patio space. Would definitely recommend the Corn Mill restaurant, perfect for us sitting outside with our dog. Nemo fish bar was great for fish & chips during the day. We travelled a bit further for an Indian takeaway in Chirk but it was still perfectly hot when we arrived back 20 minutes later. We took our dog and the communal space between the cabin and the house was perfect for her to explore and sniff. Felt very secure with the fencing and the gate closed at all times, she was able to mooch about and still be completely safe. Recommendations: If planning on using the hot tub every evening like we did, maybe take an extra towel aside from your shower/bath towel as we struggled to get ours dry because of frequent use. Probably could always ask the owner for additional towels or to use the dryer on site. Make sure you definitely read the leaflets provided about the rubbish and recycling rules so you can abide by them. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We will definitely return again in the future.

  On the face of it, the property was extremely cosy and had many positives.

  The location was brilliant, with shops like Aldi, home bargains petrol stations close by, good parking, interior decor was charming and homely, really appreciated the brownies on entry, hot tub was excellent, and table tennis and board games were well stocked, water pressure was excellent. However there were a few issues, mostly minor, but a few major ones which dampened the stay, and would've been ideal to have some warning ahead of time. We appreciate that all may not have been given, but for the price point, and comparing with previous experiences, there were some expectations missed. Minor: - The kitchen wasn't very well stocked. Salt and pepper shakers were empty, there was no oil, there was no chopping board (or atleast we didn't find one) - The bathroom had no toiletries and only one spare tissue roll - There was no table football as advertised Major: - Bed was extremely squeaky, to the point we were woken up multiple times during the night - The 'game room' seemed like it would be a room in itself from the listing, however, it turned out to be the garage with the door removed so it was always open. This is fine, except for the fact it seemed like the garage area hadn't been cleaned in a while so there was a lot of dust and cobwebs which made the space a little unpleasant to use. THINGS TO NOTE FOR GUESTS: - Not obvious from the listing, but there is another property right next-door and while the house itself is private, the hot tub is clearly visible to the neighbouring house. This wasn't an issue for us, but maybe for others.

  We have just got back from a fabulous week at Siskin.

  Everything we needed (and more!) was in the cottage and we were very comfortable after exploring the surrounding areas during the day. Suzi couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful and the welcome pack was a delight. Everything was very clean and we felt secure in the knowledge that it was all covid safe. Sitting in the garden eating breakfast, watching the mists roll across the hills is a must. The stairs up to the twin room are a bit difficult to navigate so we kept our suitcase and items we wouldn't need at night in the bathroom. Which was fine as the bathroom has ample space to do this. We enjoyed a lovely sunday dinner takeaway from The Brigands Inn, which we would thoroughly recommend. There was a bit of superficial building work going on during our stay, at the neighbouring property, which caused some slight noise. This did not detract from our fabulous stay and Suzi was very apologetic. Our week away at Siskin was a 70th Birthday present and the birthday boy said it was the best birthday he has ever had! Thank you Siskin and Suzi!

  The cabin is lovely and the views are stunning!

  We had a delightful break, and would recommend wholeheartedly! Only marred slightly by someone (presumably the owner but he didn't introduce so...) cleaning out the hot tub at 8 o'clock in the morning of our departure day. The cabin is east facing, so lovely sunrises, and we'd got into the habit of not shutting the blind in the kitchen area (which looks out over the deck) so we could wake with the morning sun. To have someone rattling around out there whist we were still in bed felt a bit off. As it was, we needed to pack but he wasn't to know that we hadn't done that the night before and had a morning dip in the tub planned before we left... Oh, and the fridge is really noisy when the compressor kicks in. Through the night it's a nuisance seeing as it's about 10 feet from the end of the bed. Not a complaint as such, because that's what fridges do. But light sleepers might find it disturbs their nights...

  What a lovely place.

  Arrived to find a wonderful welcome pack. Even the dog was treated. We were met by Suzie a lovely lady who let us in then gave us some time to unpack before coming back to tell us about everything then left us alone to enjoy our stay. The cottage is clean, lovely decorated and well kept. There is a folder telling you how everything works along with maps and leaflets of the area and games and DVD's. Kitchen cleaning products are provided along with tea and coffee. Shower gel and hand soap in the bathroom and hair dryer in the bed room. Everyone in the area is very friendly. Rasta made friends with 3 local boarder collies Patch, sketch and flash. If you are a plane enthusiast then you will love it here. They fly directly over the cottage. Or you can take a 5 min drive to the Bwlch. A great location for the mach loop.
