Really lovely cottage, quiet, but not too far from Llangollen. Easy to find, and excellent communication from the hosts. Sheep and lambs in the surrounding fields and the sound of the river rushing by below- what more could you want! The cottage itself was immaculate, the beds were comfy, the water was warm.

Easy to get to all of the North Wales attractions and we really enjoyed ourselves and would not hesitate in re-booking the cotRead moretage. No negative feedback at all only positives! Thanks to Paul for making us feel welcome. Hide

Lovely cottage in a very nice location. Very peaceful, we spent a couple of days chilling in the garden, enjoying the weather, and the ambience of the countryside. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Riverside Cottage.
