  • "A lovely, quiet, and safe place for a weekend getaway."

    There was a massive guard dog in front of the house, which was initially terrifying, but the dog was well trained and the owner was able to keep him quiet, and we had no problems with the dog after that. My only criticism is that there was no lock on the only bathroom in the property, which was annoying as I was staying with friends. Make sure to check the guest numbers before booking, as it accommodates only 4 guests and has a non-refundable cancellation policy. Overall, we had a wonderful time and felt safe. The owner showed us around and made us feel comfortable.

  • "A beautiful cottage in very quiet location with a lovely large garden, outdoor seating area and fabulous views."

    The owner met us and showed us round and explained everything, a nice gesture. Cottage spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. Very comfy bed! Loved it!

  • "We had a very nice holiday in this quiet little cottage with a panoramic view of the river Dee and the owner was very keen too make sure we had a pleasant stay."

    A comfy bed and a bedroom which is nice and dark with the curtains drawn, excellent shower, great Wi-Fi and a large TV with Netflix etc. The enclosed garden was well kept and quiet and the main road had hardly any vehicles use it while we were there. One pub within a very easy walk with another pub just a good stretch of the legs away. We also had a very nice meal in the hotel. We had a great time, thanks.

    Thank you for your kind review! We appreciate it and loved having you and hope to see you soon again. Property Owner

The property

Holywell 3.2 miles.

Nestled in a tranquil location in Halkyn near Holywell, Flintshire is this fabulously-appointed one-bedroom cottage, The Old Hall.

Perched in the same grounds as the impressive Grade-II listed main house, with access to an expansive enclosed garden and off-road parking, The Old Hall welcomes four guests to enjoy a peaceful escape in North Wales.

After unloading your belongings, enter your new abode to be impressed by the well-equipped kitchen/diner, boasting all the necessary appliances required to ease your self-catered stay; the property also maintains many of its original features, with Grade-II listed curtilage and stone dating to the 1850s extending throughout.

Kick back and relax in the homely sitting room, complete with an electric fire where you and your loved ones can cosy up on cooler evenings and enjoy some light entertainment.

If you prefer to spend your evenings alfresco, venture out into the enclosed garden and settle down on the outdoor furniture to tuck into a feast or sip on a cold glass of bubbly, toasting to a wonderful Welsh retreat!

When sleep calls, escape to the ground-floor shower room to freshen up, before climbing into one of two double beds on the first floor, sloping off into a refreshing night’s embrace.

In the morning, begin your itinerary with a stroll to Holywell, where you’ll find all your nearest conveniences, including a handy shop for stocking up on the essentials and a pub, perfect for sampling some hearty grub on the days you don’t feeling cooking!

Spend the day in the Loggerheads Country Park, taking advantage of an array of scenic woodland walks and cycling paths, before finding a prime spot to saviour a picnic; close by, golf enthusiasts can also enjoy a round or two at a selection of golf clubs including Northop, Brynford, Holywell and Mold, each offering their own superb course with picturesque views of the rolling hills and countryside.

Further afield, uncover the untouched beauty of Rhaeadr Dyserth Waterfall or spend your days relaxing upon Prestatyn or Talacre Beach, paddling the shores or soaking up the sun’s rays during warmer months.

With the Wirral Peninsula and even the bustling city of Chester within accessible reach, home to the famous Chester Zoo, you will find everything you need for a memorable holiday and more.

For your next Welsh adventure, escape to The Old Hall.

About the location

HOLYWELL

Mold 9 miles; Prestatyn 10 miles; Chester 18 miles.

The market town of Holywell in North Wales takes its name from the town’s most famous attraction, the 7th century St Winefride’s Well, one of the Seven Wonders of Wales. Holywell boasts over 60 listed buildings, with a variety of late Georgian and Victorian buildings on offer, along with a pedestrianised shopping centre, pubs, restaurants and an open-air market every Thursday. Just one mile away are the 12th century ruins of Basingwerk Abbey within the grounds of the Greenfield Valley Heritage Park, with its museum. There are many lovely walking routes in the area, including the open common area at Halkyn Mountain, Pennant Way, Offa’s Dyke and The Welsh Coastal Path. Within driving distance is the pretty Market town of Mold, which holds an outdoor market on a Wednesday and Saturday. The historic city of Chester, with its famous Rows, Roman Walls, racecourse, zoo, shops and restaurants is just over the border in England. The beautiful Welsh Coast is easily reached with the little seaside village and beach of Talacre only a short drive away. Prestatyn, Rhyl, and of course Llandudno are also easily accessible, together with the majestic mountains of Snowdonia. There are also some beautiful gardens to visit, Ness on the Wirral, and Bodnant Gardens in Snowdonia to name just two.
