Bron y Fedw is a detached 1930s house situated on a hillside one mile from Glyn Ceiriog. This secluded valley just 3 miles over the hill from Llangollen and was described by Lloyd George as "a little piece of heaven on earth". The small village has a shop and a pub. The town of Chirk is 6 miles away.

The cottage: is simply but comfortably furnished and retains some interesting original features. It is in a lovely position looking out across the valley with a large grassed garden. Heating by storage heaters, wood burning stove and electric panel heaters.

Entrance: Steps lead up the garden from the parking area. Entrance is via a large enclosed porch, ideal for outdoor kit and dogs.

Sitting room: has a woodburning stove (initial logs provided), comfortable sofas and easy chairs, Freeview TV and WiFi. Original wooden floor with rug over. Please Note: The loft ladder, when down, goes up from this room, see photos.

Dining room: is separate from sitting room and has a table and chairs for 6.

Kitchen: is a simple fitted kitchen with, electric cooker, microwave, fridge, washer/dryer and door to the rear.

Ground floor shower room: with walk in shower suitable for those with limited mobility, WC, basin and electric towel rail.

There are three bedrooms: A double on the ground floor and two twin bedrooms, one accessed via the other, both up a very steep loft ladder.

Bedroom 1: ground floor double with wardrobe and chest of drawers. Views to the garden.

Bedrooms 2/3: on the first floor up the loft ladder, in the eaves of the building with some limited headroom. However, they are bright and airy rooms with Velux windows and four single beds. There is a stair gate at the top of the loft ladder, but these rooms are unsuitable for children unless closely supervised.

Outside: is a sloping garden and terrace to the front and rear of the property with garden furniture and barbecue. The property has a parking area with space for two small cars.

This is excellent walking and cycling country with many public footpaths and quiet country lanes. There is lots to explore within a very short distance. The bustling town of Llangollen, with its many pubs and cafes, is by the river Dee, fantastic for strolling along its banks. Also, in Llangollen is the canal with horse drawn barge trips, the famous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and the Llangollen heritage railway. Chirk has the National Trust's spectacular Chirk castle and gardens.

Excellent base for visiting the beautiful local area. Set in a quiet non touristy area, you look out across a beautiful hillside view. Lots of birdsong at dusk and dawn.

Comfortable property with great bed and sofas downstairs. We didnt venture upstairs! Nice location but not a lot in walking distance.

This little cottage is in a beautiful location but is let down by feeling so neglected. The appliances are decades old and slow to heat which made cooking very difficult, and the television is intermittent at best. Tea and coffee was not supplied. However, the views are stunning and the cottage is ideally situated to explore the beautiful localRead more area. The beds are also very comfortable, and we enjoyed having the log burner. There were plenty of books for both adults and children, and a number of board games provided. Hide

Kitchen and bathroom were clean and bed and settees comfortable. Well situated to explore north Wales but keep an eye out for hairpin bends and steep drops. Local people are very friendly.

This is a lovely house. Very quiet. Clean and comfortable. Good access to Llangollen, Chirk, Oswestry (all about 20 mins drive) and other places. One bedroom is downstairs - the others are in the loft conversation accessed via a pull down ladder which may not be ideal for everyone.

The cottage is quaint and perfectly situated to explore the valley and local countryside including Chirk castle, the viaducts and wild river after days of rain. With the fire lit it is a sung place to wile away an evening.

I had a wonderful week at Bron y Fedw. It is a 1930's cottage so don't expect a modern ultra fancy appartment, but I like a bit of character. And it has still some Art Deco features. The cottage is situated in a rural location and is very quiet. Great if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle and use it as a base to go walking in the CeiriRead moreog valley or visit Chirk Castle, the Llangollen Railway or take a trip with a narrow boat across Pontcysyllte aquaduct. The cottage has an outdoor space at the front and the back where you can enjoy the sun, if it shines. I really enjoyed my stay and would not hesitate to book it again. Hide
