"This holiday home has stunning views of the valleys and mountains beyond, the Irish sea is also visible from the property."
There was everything you need by way of kitchen equipment, dining/sitting area with floor to ceiling glass was comfortable, as was the lounge. The owners, who live nearby, are great and very approachable. We are already missing the wonderful countryside and peaceful surroundings.

"Delightful well equipped house with stunning views."
Very friendly owners.

"A wonderful house with the most stunning views."
We were a group of 4 adults and 5 children. The play barn was a brilliant space for the kids (and adults too!) Very comfortable rooms and a well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed petting and feeding the lovely pigs. Fresh eggs made for a lovely treat too. Away from the hustle and bustle in a beautiful area of North Wales, thank you for a lovely holiday.

"Our two families had a lovely stay here at Pen Bryn Llan!"
We were a group of 4 adults and 3 children and we found that there was more than enough space for us all. The surrounding area is so peaceful and the thing that we loved the most were those breathtaking views of the countryside from the back of the house. Charles and Angharad keep the house very clean, the beds were comfortable and the showers were super powerful. The kitchen has everything you could need really, we even did some clothes washing because the kids had got themselves dirty and sweaty whilst off on our adventures. In fact, we loved it so much that we decided that we wanted to book again for next summer about two days into our stay! The kids loved feeding the pigs and watching them shuffle past the window in the paddock. To top it all off, the play barn is huge, it had so much to keep the kids entertained- and most importantly, somewhere dry that we could take them to tucker them out before bed! Lovely house, lovely setting and lovely hosts.

"Lovely house, amazing views, loved seeing the chickens and pigs, thanks for letting the kids feed them apples, the play barn and trampoline were a hit too."

"Fantastic property would certainly stay again"

"We had a wonderful weeks holiday at this stunning property."
The views are amazing & we all enjoyed the peace & quiet of the location. Plenty of room for 5 adults & 5 children. The beds are very comfy. Camp cot, high chair & 2 stair gates also provided if requested. The children loved the play barn & trampoline. They also loved feeding the pigs & chickens & watching the sheep in the paddock. We were lucky enough to see some sheep dog training too. Ideally situated for days out in North Wales. The owners are really friendly & helpful & the fresh eggs are delicious. We could have happily stayed another week & look forward to returning soon.

"Perfect destination for a family break."
Amazing views of the Welsh countryside from every angle of the house. The play barn is a great place for children - my two nephews spent hours in it. Bedrooms were comfy and clean. Would highly recommend Pen Bryn Llan as a base for anyone keen on exploring North Wales. Thank you!
Thank you very much for your great feedback. Property Owner

"Brilliant and well equiped cottage in an beautiful area with amazing views!"
Thouroughy enjoyed our time there and would highly recommend it.
-
"Absolutely stunning!"
The views are breathtaking and the house is just a home away from home.
-
"Beautiful well maintained house in a good location."
The views from the conservatory/dining room and the decking are stunning providing a great place to sit and relax in the evening. Everything you could need was provided. The only thing I might suggest is blinds in the bedroom as they are very bright for trying to get young children to sleep! The children weren’t able to play in the paddock as the grass was too long and there were thistles and nettles but the play barn was great and they had lots of fun in there and on the trampoline. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We had a lovely holiday and I would definitely recommend this property.
Thank you very much for your comments about Pen Bryn Llan. We will look into fitting blinds if other guests feel it may help to keep the brightness out of the children’s bedroom. Property Owner

"What a great place."
In a fantastic farming village. Stunning views and wildlife ( Ravens, Buzzards, Housemartins, Swallows. NZ Kunekune pigs! We all loved it and if circumstances allow, we shall try to get here again Met Mr Charles, the host, a very friendly man , lots of chats and ideas. This place is a must visit, if you want, views of Snowdonia, green fields, farms ....

"Amazing cottage."
Lovely owner. Kids loved feeding the pigs. Perfect holiday

"We stayed at Pen Bryn Llan over Christmas."
The owners go over and above what is expected of them, the little ones loved the barn, even the older ones! Waking up to the sheep grazing in the field outside and the amazing views were magical. Even when a family member left her watch, they promptly posted it back. We would certainly go back and recommend this property. The only negative were the small leaks in the conservatory when the driving rain came. This was warned in the documents at the property. Hopefully this will get fixed once the weather improves. We all wanted to thank the owners of the property for it made a magical Christmas.
-
"Excellent property, I think that this was the 4th time that we have stayed here."
Arrived in the snow to find Christmas decorations up and the house lovely and warm. We did have a lot of snow over our stay the owner dropped us a shovel off to dig the snow from around the cars and gritted around to help us get out. Some lovely walks and a nice meal in the village pub. Also an outside games area in a barn. Lovely stay as usual.
-
"A totally relaxing break plenty to go & see within east reach."
The house we stayed in had stunning view’s & Charles the owner bought us some apples to feed the pigs who came to see us in the paddock next to the house everyday. Would highly recommend.
-
"The property is absolutely stunning!"
The photographs really don’t do it any justice. We all had an amazing time! The children loved the play barn and feeding the very friendly pigs their fruit and vegetables. Great views from every angle and such a well maintained property. We are going to rebook for next year. Highly recommend!!
Thanks for your very kind words. Glad you had a good time. Hope to see you again! Property Owner

"We have just had a fabulous week at this property."
The views are absolutely stunning. The property is clean, spacious and has everything you could need. The play barn is a massive space with lots of games and activities, our children aged 3-12 loved it and spent lots of time in there. They also enjoyed visiting the pigs and chickens. It’s a short walk down the track to the local pub. The owner was really helpful, answering questions, giving advice on local walks etc. We have already booked again for next summer it’s one of the nicest holiday cottages I’ve ever stayed in. A few flies got into the conservatory but a quick spray with fly spray which was provided sorted it out and they were not overwhelming and no more that I’d expect in the countryside. Definitely recommend.
-
"Fantastic house, amazing views very peaceful, the kids loves the animals especially as the pigs come right up the house."
20 minute drive to Rhyl and and Towyn so location is brilliant. Playbarn was an added bonus (Badminton, Table Tennis, Basketball, Football and plemty for kids) Very accomodating with highchair for 9 month old and helped out whenever he could. Would HIGHLY recommend!
-
"We had a fantastic holiday at Pen Bryn Llan."
The property was spacious, clean and comfortable, and the views are stunning! We enjoyed having a couple of barbeques, sitting out on the decking soaking up the sunshine and enjoying watching the changing weather over the landscape. The play barn was also fun for all the family. We'd definitely love to return here to this great location and explore even more of North Wales.
-
"The amount of flies was overwhelming."
The house itself was super. We were 3 adults but I could see a family with children really enjoying it. The mattresses on the beds were not very comfortable
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you loved the house. The property owner would have been glad to help you with any issues you found if you had contacted them during your stay. The rural location and warmer weather may attract flies which can happen in the countryside. Thank you once again for your feedback and we hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner

"The property was clean, well equipped and comfortable."
It has unbelievably good views across the sea, the Denbighshire hills and Snowdonia and is in a very peaceful spot. The owner was very responsive when small problems arose.
-
"Had an amazing stay."
It’s hard to find somewhere that accommodates our large family but Pen Bryn Llan was perfect for us. Would definitely return. Fantastic views. The play barn was loved by us all and our youngest is 14! We didn’t want to leave. Cannot recommend highly enough.
-
"Lovely property."

-
"Fantastic location and lovely house."
The farm setting and activities barn were a huge hit with the kids and adults! Would love to come back
-
"Amazing property with amazing views and very spacious, I would definitely go again!"
-
"We loved the location and the facilities- a very special place."
Some parts of the property looking a bit tired (showers/bathrooms) and for the price we paid (over £750) for 2 nights I didn’t think that was acceptable. I notice the price has dropped now and I am disappointed the reduction was not passed on.
-
"Amazing holiday, views are outstanding"
-
"Perfect cottage in a perfect location."
Animals and play barn are an added bonus. Both grandchildren had a fantastic week feeding and watching the animals. Would definitely like to return to this cottage in the future. Home from home very comfortable and met all needs for the four generations of the family, some thing for everyone. Stunning.
-
"The cottage was well equipped and comfortable."

"Beautiful views from every window!"
It felt like the outdoors was indoors, stunning! The children were able to play outdoors in the barn no matter what the weather which was a brilliant advantage.
-
"Absolutely amazing."
Very well presented, stunning views. Ideal base for visiting all the surrounding areas. Barn next door with plenty of toys to keep the children entertained. Loved seeing the pigs who are real characters. Would definitely stay at this property in the future.
-
"Amazing location."
Stunning views. Very clean. Fantastic experience with all the farm animals as well...
-
"A most amazing holiday house with great facilities and access."
The kids and adults had a fabulous time in the playbarn and playing in the vast outdoor space. Very relaxing place to sit and take in the views of the countryside.

"This a fantastic property the views and spectacular, very rural and quite."
Kids loved the play barn.
-
"A well equipped cottage with fantastic views."
Plenty of places to visit with young children in the local area; Welsh Mountain Zoo, Colwyn Bay and Denbigh Castle. Also within reach of Betws-y-Coed which has beautiful walks (and pram friendly). The play barn was really useful to exhaust the children of any left over energy. The owners installed stair gates at the top and bottom of the stairs ahead of our arrival which was greatly appreciated and essential with a 16 month old toddler.
-
"This place was perfect for us."
The games barn with its open space was great to keep us entertained. We met Charles who was a great host. And the views watching the sunset were great. We would definitely recommend this place.
-
"This place is amazing."
The house so spacious and clean and has stunning views. The games barn is an added bonus and kept us entertained several times. Mr Roberts the owner is a very nice and friendly person. We just could not fault this place and will be returning for another stay
-
"Amazing views, amazing cottage."
We all thoroughly enjoyed our holiday, ages 5-78. Lots of room for children to run round outside and the adults enjoyed the badminton and table tennis. Fabulous week
-
"Just wow! We stayed at Pen Bryn Llan for my Mum's 60th Birthday weekend and what a weekend we had - the views at this place are absolutely incredible!"
It was simply the perfect weekend away for all of the family - it slept 7 adults and 2 children very comfortably and all of the bedrooms are lovely and have fabulous views. It's perfectly equipped with everything you need and the whole place was just spotless. My 2 boys just loved the play barn, trampoline and the added bonus was having sheep, lambs and pigs right on our doorstep. They loved feeding the pigs with our left over fruit and veg. The cottage is fairly remote but this is what makes it so special as you can just literally switch off and forget about everything - you relax as soon as you walk in the front door. There are plenty of places to explore only a short drive away or there are some lovely walks to enjoy from the local village. We took a day trip to Betws-y-coed which we all enjoyed. The terrace is lovely - we had a lovely sunny weekend but the wind was a bit chilly but you really don't need to be outside to appreciate the stunning views - even when sat inside you feel as those you are outside. I can't recommend this place highly enough and when we have our next family gathering I will certainly be looking to book again!
-
"4 adults and 4 young children spent 3 nights at this cottage and thoroughly enjoyed the stay."
It was a very comfortable and modern set up with plenty of space to relax and enjoy the views. The cottage was very clean and tidy. The kids enjoyed the break and had plenty of outside area to play safely. Would definitely recommend this cottage for 2 families.
-
"The view from this cottage is breathtaking, the pictures do not do it justice!"
It has to be seen to be believed. We had a fantastic family trip here and would happily return for another holiday.
-
"Beautiful place in a brilliant location."
This was our 2nd stay and we had such a fantastic time.
-
"We very much enjoyed the panoramic Vista's from so many aspects of the house&decking area."
It's a perfect house&outside areas for families to spend time before&after enjoyable days out in the many places there are to visit in N Wales.
-
"Stunning location Stunning views Beautiful home Adults and children both enjoyed their time their."
The play barn was a bit with both, we were lucky with the weather so we're able to sit out on the decking and enjoy drinks which was lovely. Perfect location for exploring north Wales too, and lovely walks locally.
-
"A lovely cottage, clean and comfortable with amazing views oit across the countryside."
The play barn was a hit with the little ones and big ones. Lots of room for the children to play safely. I have already recommended to friends.
-
"What a magical stay, the views were out of the world and this is defiantly recommended for both family and business."
-
"This was our 3rd year staying at Pen Bryn Plan - we just love it here!"
! We book it every year around the February time so we have something to look forward too over the winter period. The cottage is beautiful and the views are wonderful. The conservatory is a lovely space for us all to hang out and chill. Comfortable beds and nice facilities so it really does tick all the boxes. Mr Roberts the owner is very friendly and accommodating and even lets the children feed the pigs which the they love!! The barn is fabulous, if the weather isn't great the children can still get outside and play as it's under cover. Can't recommend this cottage enough!! Kass
-
"Great space for a large group, clean and modern."
Well equipped and had such a great time in the barn. Aged from 9-77 and everyone was happy. Stunning views and helpful owner. Really enjoyed feeding the pigs and seeing the chickens. Thoroughly recommend this house!
-
"Amazing location and property."
Perfect for a chill out and relax.
-
"A beautiful house with stunning views in every direction."
The lounge and bedrooms are light, spacious and very comfortable. Definitely the most used room though was the huge dining/sitting conservatory at the back of the house. The views are remarkable and it’s a great room for large group dining. Unfortunately, it wasn’t quite warm enough to make use of the large decked area though it would be an excellent outdoor space in better weather. The games barn is huge and was well used but wrap up warm in winter months! The house is up a long track and there are no shops or pubs within close walking distance so make sure to stock up well or be prepared to drive out for dining.
-
"The cottage is in the most amazing location, with views from every window."
We enjoyed watching the buzzards and getting to know some of the sheep. Pen Bryn Llan is a very comfortable cottage being well equipped and clean. There are some stunning walks straight from the front door. The pigs and chickens are a joy. The local pub, The Hawk and Buckle, serves good food and a wonderful crumble. Having stayed in many cottages in the UK, this one is my favourite.
-
"Lovely location, beautiful scenery."
The children loved the freedom of the paddock and the play barn was a lovely touch to ensure the children didn't get bored. Mr Roberts wad extremely friendly and more than happy to allow us to feed the little pigs and chickens which again the children took an immense amount of pleasure in. The house itself was spotless, good facilities with a well equipped kitchen. Would definitely return :)
-
"Had a wonderful family weekend at this property."
The house was fabulous, clean and very well equipped, the location and views are outstanding.
-
"We were a family of six adults staying in the house for three nights to celebrate my birthday with family nearby visiting."
The house is delightful with everything you would need, high quality appliances and a lot of attention to detail. It has been very well designed and is spotlessly clean. There are fantastic views and it is literally in the middle of nowhere. There are plenty of lovely walks around the beautiful countryside The local pub Hawk and Buckle is a short walk and serves excellent food and we were made to feel very welcome, On the way we saw the local deer Rudolf who followed us to the pub!!! The hosts Charles and Angharad were friendly and very helpful. A great place to relax and enjoy.
-
"The house was lovely & clean, in gorgeous surroundings."
The play barn had loads to keep us entertained & we all enjoyed a relaxing, family weekend.
-
"Booked this cottage for the weekend to celebrate my Mother-in-Laws 60th birthday."
There were 5 adults and 4 children (aged 7, 6, 1 and 8 months) there was plenty of room for us all. The older children loved the facilities in the barn and entertained themselves for hours which was a fabulous bonus considering its January and the weather wasn't great. The cottage is beautiful, the views are amazing and it's location is great for exploring. As it was my Mother-in-laws birthday on the Sunday Mr Roberts was extremely accommodating and allowed us to check out later than 10am as no-one was arriving after us. We would highly recommend this cottage and will definately be returning.
-
"Lovely cottage, very clean and everything you need."
Very rural and out of the way!! Ideal for a relaxing time away, to get away from it all. Stunning views!! A must!
-
"We booked this cottage for our parents RUBY wedding anniversary weekend."
We are all rally goers too so attended the wrc on the Saturday which wasn't to far away. Then we celebrated the anniversary on the Sunday was only a 3 mile drive to a lovely pub called llindir arms, very nice food and beer and very reasonably prced. We where all very impressed with the location of ghe cottage with the stunning views we had at breakfast and a wonder down to the barn for a bit if fun and games. The children enjoyed feeding the pigs too.
-
"Amazing cottage with great views, will definitely be booking again in the future"

Excellent amenities for children with the play barn and trampoline. Very friendly owners too. Will return one day.
-
"Splendid views, lovely accommodation."
Might be back!
-
"Great cottage would have been the ultimate if we had a real wood burning fireplace."
But all in all just a marvelous cottage would definitely recommend it if you want a relaxing place to stay far from all the noisy places
-
"This was a stunning property and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay."
We will be looking to book this large family house again some time during next year or 2018.
-

The property
A stylish, contemporary, farmhouse, next to the owner's home, on their smallholding, on the outskirts of Llannefydd village, in an elevated location above the Dolwen Reservoir, on the Denbighshire/Conwy border.
This detached, delightful cottage offers quality accommodation and breathtaking views as soon as you enter into the double height, summer room, which soaks up the country views across the valley.
Opening into a modern kitchen with a breakfast area, you will find everything you need to enjoy a sociable meal with friends and family whilst taking in the undisturbed panoramic views.
A second reception room provides a cosy area to sit and read or watch TV.
The addition of a ground floor bedroom, enjoying the use of a wet room next door, making it suitable for the less able guest, if required.
Upstairs you will find two king-size bedrooms, one with en-suite facilities, the other a Juliet balcony, and a triple bedroom, again ideal for children, all enjoying some of the best views available in North Wales.
The half-mile track to the farmhouse, though un-adopted, is in good condition and level and worth the walk back into the village to enjoy the hospitality at the 17th century coaching inn and restaurant, perhaps after a walk down to the reservoir to enjoy a spot of fishing first.
If that doesnt give you enough to do, then a ½ acre meadow outside the cottage provides all the space children may need to play Frisbee or perhaps fly a kite.
The popular seaside town of Abergele is a short drive away and opens up to miles of sandy beaches and coastal walks along the Welsh coastline.
Alternatively, visit the market town of Denbigh or the newly-appointed city of St Asaph, both just 15 minutes drive away.
The area is renowned for its stunning scenery and country walks, and will have you returning to this luxury cottage time and time again.
About the location
LLANNEFYDD
Denbigh 5 miles; Abergele 9 miles; Rhyl 10 miles; Prestatyn 13 miles.
Only 7 miles from the lovely North Wales coast lies the rural village of Llannefydd, located between the historic town of St Asaph, with its impressive cathedral, Rhuddlan with its majestic castle, and Abergele with its fabulous sandy beaches. The pleasant, nearby seaside town of Abergele stands on the North Wales coastline and is ideally positioned between the stunning Vale of Clwyd and the Conwy Valley. Renowned for the impressive Gwych Castle which overlooks the town, and its enormous sandy beach, the whole area offers safe bathing waters and excellent watersports facilities, as well as a coastal cycle path which runs along the Abergele seafront, whilst for walking enthusiasts the Offa's Dyke Pathway, the Clwydian Hill Range and beautiful Betws-y-Coed known as the Gateway to Snowdonia are all nearby. The castles of Rhuddlan, Conwy, Denbigh and Caernarfon are not to be missed and the delightful Victorian town of Llandudno, offering quality shops, restaurants, a dry ski slope and exciting cable car rides over the Great Orme, is within easy driving distance. Both the Brenig and Alwen reservoirs offer stunning scenery and walking opportunities and are within 10 miles of the village. Plenty to do at any time of the year!
