    All the indoor and outdoor facilities you could realistically want as a multi-generational family and the house itself is ideally located to explore the North Wales coast. Would definitely consider going again.

  • "The house was beautiful it was so roomy a great place for large gathings."

    It was, a family celebration all 6 grandchildren enjoyed the hot tub and the games room. My sons and daughter in laws had great fun in the hot tub as well. The kitchen was well equipped the down side was the road getting there but my son did speak to the owner as his car was very low but other than that we had a fantastic time

  • "We all enjoyed a week's holiday in Wales, Arosfa is a beautiful cosy home set in a picturesque part of North Wales with lots of interesting places to visit, the pool table and table tennis were an added bonus on wet days, the garden was well kept and private, if l had to mention a tiny fault it would be the short driveway to the house had a good few pot holes that had to be avoided, but then again the driveway was shared with other home owners."

    Thanks for your feedback, unfortunately it's an unadopted lane - I spend around £1,000 filling the pot holes every so often with no help from the neighbours I'm afraid - It's a losing battle :( - glad you had a great stay. Property Owner

    Had a fantastic stay here only issue for us my elderly mum came with us ground floor bedroom there were a couple of steps but we managed however no grab rail in bathroom so she couldn’t get herself off the toilet I am aware the house doesn’t advertise as disabled friendly but just a heads up it didn’t take away from the fantastic time we had here

    Hi there, thanks for the feedback.... We do have a number of disabled aids stored at the property, if we'd have known we could have left these available for you - at least you know for next time. Glad you had a nice stay. Property Owner

    . apart from the weather which was out of there hands it was absolutely perfect… kitchen great and really well equipped …wanted for nothing. Dining table took all 17 of us easily.Games room … superb…and the cosy front living room with a view is unforgettable. All the bedrooms and bathrooms and so nicely done. The house is big enough to get lost and have quiet moments away from noisier members of the family when/if required :-). The garden is lovely, child and pet friendly. And the owners are very quick,helpful & accommodating answering all my questions before arrival…. Would certainly recommend and would love to revisit.

    The pictures really don’t do it justice. It’s so tastefully furnished and even had little touches around Halloween as we were there at the end of Oct. Great for walks and going to the beaches and so much to do in the cottage with a games room and an open plan kitchen diner for games nights. We had a wonderful time there

  • "This house is absolutely great for a large gathering, the set up allows for a central point for everyone to eat and spend time together in the open plan kitchen and dining area, with plenty of space to retreat to if you need time to yourself."

    Ample off road parking. Bedrooms all comfortable and plenty of bathrooms. The front rooms enjoy a lovely view of the sea. The trampoline, climbing frame and games room were a hit with the kids while the adults enjoyed hot tub time and a glass of wine around the fire pit of an evening. Lots of fun day trips within 30 min drive eg Conwy, Prestatyn, Talacre beach. The owner is friendly and communicative. Fab time had by all, thank you!

  • "Arosfa Lodge proved to be an excellent choice for accommodating our large family group comprising ages from 2 to 70."

    The games room and outdoor play facilities were, in particular, a huge hit. Future guests should perhaps be mindful that the two bedrooms in "the attic" have restricted headroom with sloping ceilings and a steep staircase - not really suitable for the very tall, very young or those with limited mobility, especially since their nearest bathroom is on the floor below.

  • "Lovely place to stay."

    As per previous review, there isn’t a gym. There is a great playroom and an outside play area. The bin needed batteries - we didn’t get round to it. You offered only one high chair so we brought another. Selling yourself short - there were two available. We bought a mattress for the cot - not very comfortable otherwise. Why not include a picture of the seaside view - it is lovely. I understand the need for all the warning signs with subsequent charges but it does lower the tone somewhat. Yes it is a lot of money but it is an amazing place to bring all the family together. Thank you.

    There were ten of us - six adults, three children, one baby and two dogs and there were plenty of rooms to choose from which meant we easily found a layout that worked for all of us*. The location is great and at the end of the day we used the hot tub and/or games room to unwind. We had a problem with the coffee maker - there was a part missing and no sooner than we had reported it a whole new machine was delivered. Faultless service. *It's worth noting that access to two of the rooms, one twin and 1 double in the roof is via a narrow landing which may not be suitable for everyone.

Other than a few minor things, the stay was absolutely amazing!!
