About this property

Offering a luxury abode for a couple or some friends, this beautiful ground-floor converted barn rests in the riverside town of Llangollen. The Oaks is situated on the grounds of the owner's home, but enjoys a private entrance and garden space, so it's a peaceful and secluded space all to yourself. Park up on the driveway and enter this stylish dwelling and be welcomed into the open-plan living space to your left, with an apex ceiling held up by beautiful timber beams resting over the contemporary and stylish decor below. Find the sleek, glossy kitchen to contain all you need for making some excellent meals, with an electric oven and hob, as well as a fridge, freezer and dishwasher amongst the appliances, you'll be impressing the rest of the group with your culinary skills. Gather around the dining table, seated at the quirky chairs and tuck into some great food, or use this space to plan an activity or trip. Relax after exciting days in the sitting area, where the sofa can be transformed into a double bed for two extra guests, or can simply be a snug spot to wind down in front of the roaring gas stove-effect fire, whilst the evening light comes through the full-length glass windows, leading to the garden. In summer, open up the patio doors and delight in your own private patio space to enjoy, sip a refreshing drink at the outdoor furniture, then take a dip in the hot tub for a luxurious moment, afterwards popping on one of the provided fluffy robes, a thoughtful touch. When you're ready to head to sleep, travel back through the property and settle into the stunning king-size bedroom, with exposed timber beams, it offers a fabulous contrast of rustic and modern style.

    ...clean, well maintained and well equipped. The owners were unobtrusive and very helpful when required (exceeding expectations). Would certainly return if looking for somewhere to stay in the area. Price is at maximum level I would be prepared to pay though.

  • Joanne

    The Hot Tub was serviced daily, discreetly by the owner which gives confidence to use the Tub. A lovely comfy bed with super soft bedding, plenty of towels and a well equipped kitchen. I can’t fault this property at all… excellent location for access to shops, restaurants etc and ideally located for walking/cycling etc.

  • Anita

    Lots of nice touches to make you feel at home and a bonus to be able relax in the hot tub, which was well maintained. Parking on site and a short walk into town with lots of local walks and activities nearby. We did find it was best to book in advance for an evening meal out.
