Great place and location

The size of the property and the gardens were excellent, this is a great base camp to explore North Wales The WiFi is very poor, this needs sorting asap especially when you have children that rely on WiFi these days. And TBH, so do I, Also the size of the fridge, the tiny fridge is nowhere near big enough for a property that can have 12 guests staying, there was 10 of us and we could not get our delivery in the fridge

Beautiful location

The location of the house is fantastic, a sunny evening in the hot tub with a view of the river was great! The gardens are lovely and clearly well looked after. The house was plenty big enough for our group, with several living spaces. Beds were comfy, and showers were good. Plenty of parking too. We'd definitely stay again. Thankyou! * Not enough glasses, general kitchen equipment for a place that sleeps 12 * Fridge is way too small for a large property, and having the freezer in the summer house was a bit of a pain * The bbq was missing the griddle, so we had to change our plans and had no one to get in touch with to rectify. * Lack of curtains in the rooms meant everyone was up really early! Overall we had a lovely time, it was just lacking a few things that'd make it a bit more comfortable :)

Lovely House For a Family Catch Up - six adults and two children

The house has two separate wings for the bedrooms - three on one side and three on the other. This was very helpful to managing noise from the kids in the mornings. There are also a number of common areas that could be used flexibly for the kids to play or watch tv, while the adults could catch up in the other spaces. The long dining table was great for meal time and the kitchen was really spacious for cooking. We cooked most meals at the house. Other great amenities include the hot tub, the outdoor patio set and the games room. Overall, the house is excellent. There are a few suggestions: 1. Fridge and Freezer - We had a lot of people so it would be great if the fridge was bigger (upright), rather than an undercounter one and if the freezer was located in the kitchen, rather than in the summer house. 2. Internet profile - It might be helpful if the house profile on the internet was explicit that the games room (which was fantastic) was in the outbuilding that is separate from the main house. 3. Other nits and nats - It would be great if (a) there were a few more tea towels for the kitchen, and (b) the rubbish removal service collected the garbage when it was supposed (in the welcome book it said it was to be collected on Wednesdays, which it wasn't), and (c) the wifi had better continuity across the house. But overall these are minor things.
