Lovely location. Have visited on numerous occasions but never stayed for a holiday. The cottage was perfect once we had figured out how to use the convection hob. Would definitely stay again if the chance arose.

Family break

We have stayed here before and both times we have not been disappointed. The property is spotlessly clean. It has everything you need. It’s it a central location with everything within a short walk. The host was excellent we had an issue in the bathroom and it was fixed promptly. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect location, place looks tired, needs attention to detail and cleanliness not kite there!

Amazing, location could not have been any better, even with trim going on at 5am, did not bother us at all! Place needs a revamp in the bedrooms, one of them stinks to humidity, small room is an under bed sheet storage thing, room three is only one decent. Kitchen nice just too many bits and bobs, unnecessary!! Dunelm doesn’t make it better!! Keep it simple and change the sofas xx

Comfy, cosy cottage in a great location

We had very good and prompt correspondence with the owner, they were very helpful up to and during our stay. A little difficult to find the cottage, hidden behind the other cottages, but we were happy once we did, it was very clean, cosy and soon to be comfy place to be. It overlooks the railway and the little steam train track too, there's not many trains at all, so no annoyance at all. There's good WiFi here, along with a very well supplied kitchen. A lovely big bathroom with a great separate shower. The furnishings are a little dated but still comfortable for us 2. I would of given the overall rating a 5 but the small patio overlooking the track is in need of a bit of TLC, although the garden near where you park is a little gem to sit out and enjoy the weather.

It was ok , all the shops on the door step good safe parking

The cottage is a good size, beds comfortable , kitchen well equipped ,however the whole cottage is in need of a deep clean, I can understand that the cleaners only have a certain b amount of time ,I think once a month it could do with some extra attention throughout the property ,I’m not a fussy person it just seemed very grimy ,also the black outside rubbish bin was in a disgusting state the whole bin area certainly needs a though wash , the inside rubbish bin also very dirty , for the money that’s being asked this needs attention ,that being said my wife and I did have a good stay , ps just something for maintenance a catch on kitchen door , regards Dave G

A lovely cottage in a beautiful village that we have always wanted to stay in during our many visits to North Wales. Blessed with great weather. The house has everything you need. Only addition would be a few more kitchen essential (cooking oil, salt) but did not spoil a fantastic time. Central for everything North Wales has to offer. Will definitely want to come back to this property.

All was very good except for on arrival the dustbins which were rammed to overflowing. We put them out but main dustbin remained not picked up due to the collection being missed on the Monday morning. Key box not easy to fathom out at first and took time to work out there were two buttons, one not obvious. Parking arrangements not clear for accommodation. On the whole we were really happy, nice and clean and facilities were all very good.

Mycket trevlig vistelse. Mysigt boende i hus, i perfekt läge för oss som åkte mycket tåg och buss, centralt men ändå mycket lugnt. Fint gammalt hus som förståeligt är något svårstädat. Hjälpsamma och tillmötesgående ägare när vi fick problem med resan och tvingades ändra ankomstdatum för att få ihop det. Mycket uppskattat.

My stay at Rose cottage

I had an amazing stay for 5 days. As a full time carer for my father who's 93, it was a much needed break & I really didn't want to leave. It's a fantastic base straight in the center & great for walking & biking so it very much suited me.
