New luxury converted barn at the foot of Moel Hebog

10/10 Excellent

"A delightful light, modern, spacious, quirky cottage, set in beautiful North Wales countryside. A tranquil setting, with views over Welsh mountains, only occasionally interrupted by a steam train chuffing its way through the garden. I've now stayed in both cottages and would thoroughly recommend both the cottages, and the local area."

Celtic Royal Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"We were surprised to find that guests have to pay an additional fee for parking. The building is quite old, so the ventilation wasn’t great and the room felt quite stuffy. Even though it was already the end of August, the room still felt quite warm and poorly ventilated. At night, there was also quite a lot of noise coming from the hotel kitchen downstairs, which was quite disturbing. Apart from these points, the staff were all very nice and friendly."
