"Such a lovely cottage, converted to a high standard."
One of the best I've stayed at in years. Lots of small touchesade it a perfect weekend getaway.

"Wonderful stay in this delightful place."
Everything that we needed was included. The hot tub was fantastic and loved the new wooden structure which kept the rain and leaves from spoiling our dips. A very quiet, peaceful and relaxing time. Very informative guide to local attractions and walks which was very useful.

"This is the most delightful little house beautifully furnished with absolutely everything provided that you would need for a delightful holiday."
The attention to detail is a credit to Lowri and Gwyn who are the most amazing hosts and there is no doubt your enjoyment is their priority. Some nice little welcome gifts left very much appreciated. The area is truly stunning and the walk up the hill behind the house is truly stunning when you get to the top and just take in the beautiful views. The hot tub at the end of the day is a bonus. I will be back to this little house hopefully next year.

"Beautiful property in a stunning location."
If you want peace, quiet and tranquility this is the place for you. We wanted for nothing, everything was thought of from the fresh farm eggs and Welsh cakes in the welcome pack, to the pint of milk in the fridge, tea, coffee, sugar and all the cleaning products you would ever need. They missed nothing, even a welcome pack for the dog! The property is clean and fresh, very comfy bed, sofa not so much. The small enclosed garden is lovely, although the wall is lower in some places than others, take care if you have an escape artist! We had a lovely week just relaxing and recharging those batteries, hot tub helped here too! There are things to see and do in the area just be mindful to relax and take time and care on the narrow roads. Well worth a visit, the surrounding countryside is stunning and quiet. We loved it.

"Absolutely loved it!"
Beautiful little cottage with the most unreal views, So homely, just beautiful! Didn’t want to leave. Will be back soon definitely.
-
"We’ve had the most wonderful week at Stabl."
The house was beautiful and had stunning views.The owners were so lovely! The facilities were great, they really thought of everything to be included down to washing pods, tea/coffee etc! The only downside was that the couch wasn’t very comfy but we made it work with all the blankets we had taken for our dog. Daisy loved watching the sheep over the road, especially when they moved them and they all went past the house. We had the most wonderful stay and will definitely be recommending to anyone wanting to stay in the area.
-
"Had a fab stay at the Stabl."
A beautifully equipped and situated cottage with the perfect balance of facilities in a quiet and relaxing setting. Very clean with a high standard of finish as well as those personal touch that make a holiday break memorable. We would highly recommend a stay, it is certainly on our list to return at some point soon!
-
"Absolutely stunning area of natural beauty, the Stabl was very historic but modernised perfectly."
The living area being upstairs makes a lot of sence with space available and means that you great a fantastic view of the fields and sheep. Lowri the owner made sure we had everything we needed from the moment we arrived. We have been on 4 break aways of this type and this was the best of all so far, would highly recommend. Thank you, all the best, Kev and Shan

-
"Beautiful cottage in a stunning area with gorgeous views."
Hosts were very friendly and welcoming and they gave us very good advice on perfect dog walks and where to get a lovely roast dinner from. The cottage was extremely clean inside and out. We will definitely be looking to rebook and return to this cottage.
-
"Lovely warm cottage."
Home from home. Ideal for us with our dog. With extra luxury of having the hot tub. Warm welcome and lovely treats for us and Rolo. Thank you. Plenty to do and see in area.
-
"It was such a cosy and relaxing stay."

Beautiful cottage and spotlessly clean, owners very friendly and lovely little welcome pack of eggs, milk and Welsh cakes, hot tub a little small for us as we are big people lol, but overall had an amazing stay here, thankyou xxx
-
"Beautiful views by day and stunning starry night sky in the hot tub at night - especially rewarding after a hike to the top of the mountain behind the old barn."
The house is warm and cozy. We went to a nearby pub for a delicious meal with a nice community feel. The bed could use a few more pillows and the sofa could be squishier but it turns into a sofa-bed so all good. Would definitely recommend
-
"Stayed for a week in The Stabl."
The barn was immaculately presented and had everything as described. I had the most amazing break in the gorgeous peace, quite and beauty of the area. The hot tub was so relaxing and the star gazing was incredible from the tub. I visited Oswestry (20 minute drive) and the Rheadder Waterfall ( 30 minutes). The waterfall was in full flow after a week of rain and was stunning, both in it's beauty and it's power. I had an amazing week and the owners who live on site are so kind and considerate.
-
"Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone, barn is lovely and couldn’t fault anything."
Very clean and tidy on arrival, hot tub & log burner are amazing on the cold nights. Owners Lowri & Gwyn are brilliant should you need anything - we also got to meet Freddie (dog) the star of the show ! Very quiet in the local area, lots of wildlife and it gives you a real break from the world. Loads of great walks within 30-40mins drive of the barns - also your own private mountain behind the barns from which you can see for miles around once at the top… Dog friendly (we took our Labrador) we did read some reviews of the bigger barn not being secure for dogs due to the fence facing the road, during our stay the owners had this replaced with a more secure fence suitable for dogs. We will certainly be back !!
Thank you James for your kind feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Lowri, Gwyn & Freddie Mercury Property Owner

The place is beautiful and is a good base for exploring the area, we loved it and would recommend.
-
"The property was very clean just needs some touching up in areas also the seating in the lounge was not comfortable too sit on for us I understand this may be a personal preference too us but it really isn’t comfy."
Bit remote for our liking and the road is very hairy getting there but all in all we had a lovely stay apart from the weather.☔️
-
"We stayed for 4 nights the 4th-8th September."
We had a fantastic stay, it’s a great base to visit the local area. The welcome gift was a lovely touch as well as the welcome gift for our dog Hugo. We visited the local lakes, waterfalls and drove over to the Porthmadog area. After busy days out exploring the hot tub was a great way to unwind. We would definitely recommend
-
"Clean and cosy, the cottage was immaculately presented with incredible views, plenty of local information and a lovely hot tub to enjoy."
A great place to escape the rat race.
-

"Cottage was lovelt if a little isolated."
The roads in the surrounding area were a challenge being single track, 10 foot high hedges and hardly any passing spaces
-

We stayed in the one bedroom barn 12th to 17th June and we was amazed by the space we had, the hot tub was just icing on our cake and was a delight to spend a good few hours in it
-
"Couldnt have asked for more."
..great accommodation and location...loved the hottub
-
"Lovely cottage,, enjoyed the hot tub."
Had everything we needed and was very clean and cosy! Perfect for the dog with the enclosed garden. Would definitely return.
-
"Amazing service and lovely place."
We really enjoyed every aspect. If we had to ask for one thing it would be a more comfortable sofa. But that’s only a small part. We loved it
-
"Absolutely loved our stay!"
We felt very welcomed and felt at home despite being so far away from home. Absolutely gorgeous cottage. I would highly recommend it for anyone just looking to get away!
-
"Fantastic cottage, exceptionally clean and beautifully presented with local home touches."
Hosts were unbelievably helpful and caring. Amazing location with huge private farmland to walk through. Will certainly be coming back!
-
"Beautiful location."
Super clean house. Hot tub in the winter is just lovely to stare at a star filled sky. Perfect escape from a hectic life. Thank you.
-
"I had an absolutely amazing stay."
I wish I could’ve stayed longer! The fresh milk, eggs and Welsh cakes as a welcome treat were much appreciated. The property was excellent, the welcome pack really helpful, and the facilities outstanding. I visited Pistyll Rhaeadr, Lake Vyrnwy, Oswestry and Chirk castle. After a day out exploring, to return to the hot tub and under floor heating was just what was needed! I would highly recommended. In terms of improvements, perhaps a robe and slippers for the hot tub, or advice to bring your own. I found the 2 pillows on the bed quite flat for my liking, but understand this is personal preference.
-
"Stayed here with our two dogs and it was lovely!"
Would recommend it to any couple who are looking for a getaway! We got very lucky with the weather but would come back any year round! Fantastic location and some great adventures near by. Log burner was great for the cold nights and the hot tub was incredible. Only downside and it is the only issue but doesn’t stop us from rating it 5 stars is the bed. It’s listed as king size but it’s two singles pushed together which you can feel if you tend to sleep towards the middle of the bed. Would still stay here again though! Thanks to the great owners also who don’t deviate from any detail and the welcome basket was a real nice touch!!
-
"Beautiful cottage in amazing surroundings."
Angus the dog loved the freedom around the cottage and the big hills to run crazy. The only negative was the sofa was uncomfortable but everything was perfect
-
"The cottage was beautifully decorated and well equipped."
The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was gorgeous. The only 2 slight downsides for us was that the sofa upstairs wasn't very comfortable to relax on and the wall around the garden near the hot tub could have been a bit higher to provide a more secluded and private feel. Overall though it was a very cosy, warm cottage.
-
"Had the most amazing time in this beautiful place."
It exceeded all my expectations. So cosy. So relaxing and absolutely stunning! We will be back!!
-
"We had an amazing stay and can’t wait to come back soon!"
Property was well equipped and set up nicely for our first family holiday with our baby.
-
"Stayed here for my 30th birthday weekend and it was so lovely!"
Plenty to do nearby if you don’t mind driving! We went to Pistyll Rhaeadr and it was absolutely stunning, only a half hour or so drive away
-
"Lovely place to stay, the owners are so kind and welcoming."
The property was clean and well kept, the hot tub was clean along with the garden area, it was nice and secluded with the village not to far away with a shop and pub. We went to the waterfall noted in the description which was a lovely treck to the base of the waterfall topped off with the night spent in the hot tub! We would stay again in a heart beat!!
-
"Stabl, Plas Moelfre Hall."
We had a great stay at the Stabl cottage, the accommodation had all you required for a relaxing stay in the Welsh hills. The surrounding area is peaceful and quite, with many walks on your doorstep, we walked up the Gyrn Moelfre Mountain behind the property and was lucky enough to watch a pair of Juvenile Red Kites patrolling the ridge. Then it was back to the cottage to relax in the hot tub, and take tea on the patio. The owners were very welcoming and nothing was to much trouble for them in making your stay as comfortable as possible, thanks for the farm eggs and the Bara Brith on arrival it was a lovely touch.
-
"Absolutely beautiful."
Accommodation is perfect everthing we could of asked for. Wouldn't change a thing. Definitely will be returning. Idyllic location so peaceful and relaxing.
-

The barn is finished to a really high standard and the hot tub was a relaxing way to end each day. We have thoroughly enjoyed our week away.

"Absolutely stunning property and the location is brilliant for all activities"
-
"What an incredible stay!"
The house was perfect in every way - so lovingly restored and so many details and extra touches that made it that extra bit special. Loved learning about the history of the property and the location was idyllic. We booked the cottage for a little getaway and my partner surprised me by proposing by the pistyll rhaeadr waterfall, which was the most perfect location! Such lovely hosts too who took the time to contact us and congratulate us - we were so touched! Couldn’t recommend enough - thank you!
-
"Had a wonderful stay it was such a lovely place and done up very well."
Loved the hot tub in the evenings too after long walks in the day. Very thoughtful little extras like Welsh cake and eggs for us, and dog treats blanket and extra bowl for the dog. The dog was safe and secure running around in the garden. The bed was very comfy (alot coming from me) the sheets weren't scratchy and were high quality and I couldn't feel any springs digging into my bones. Would definitely come again!
-
"Amazing value for money so relaxing and remote would 100% go again"
-
"Well presented cottage with great facilities, the jacuzzi is great after a long day's walk."
-
"We had an absolutely wonderful time and wish we’d booked for longer."
The property and surroundings were just stunning and ideal for what we wanted. The care and little touches like the things for the dogs and the welcome eggs and Welsh cakes were unexpected bonuses. Would definitely come again next time we want to get away from it all.
-
"Really modern spec cottage."
Underfloor heating a bonus in cold weather. Hot tub great for star gazing. Bit off the beaten track but if you want a chill, good home comforts and some lovely views then Stabl @ Moelfre Hall Barns is for you. Didn't do much walking thanks to Dudley and Eunice, but only 30-45 mins drive to Shrewsbury, Wrexham and Welshpool. British Iron museum is a good 1/2 day out weather permitting, kids and adults alike will love the outdoor treks and sculptures.

Immaculate cottage very clean throughout tastefully decorated and surround by beautiful scenery only downfall was frequent loss of internet signal but given where we were it was fully understood and expected
-
"One our first weekends away as a couple."

Small details like only having one toilet roll, 3 logs for fire and no sponge for washing dishes was poor - but other than that enjoyed our stay
