"Very nice"

"Kettle did not work had to boil water in saucepan."
Only one side of the toaster worked.

"Lovely place."
Enjoyed our stay. No toilet roll on arrival. Pint of milk in fridge would be good.
My apologies. I have had words with the cleaning company about the above, and these should have been provided as a matter of course. Apparently they had a new inexperienced person dealing with the property, but that has now been changed. I am glad you enjoyed your stay nevertheless. Property Owner

"Nearly one week without heating and hot water!"
No warm shower - but it was rainy and cold outside. No reaction by the owner.
I am so sorry about this, and dealt with it as soon as I was aware of the problem. Compensation has been given, and the problem with the boiler sorted. My apologies again to the guests. Property Owner

"The Chapel is an amazing building with several lovely features."
A functional space with enough equipment, instruction booklet, guides and tourist information easy to find on arrival. Wifi access straight forward. Bedding was clean and the views from upper windows was great. Water pressure is excellent, especially if you enjoy a shower as a wake up call! More information in relation to how to find the lock box would be useful, although the neighbour was very helpful (and it provides him with amusement watching people struggle to find it!). Some niggles: only 2 small sheets of toilet paper left in the whole property - luckily the Spar shop is just down the street and was open when we arrived, debris between sofa cushions, cobwebs and low level dust, sticky counter top in the kitchen, strong smell of fuel in foyer and outside front door, many cellar spiders and a visiting slug in the basement bathroom, damp patches, peeling paint and plaster - a nice property which could do with some TLC and attention to make it a GREAT property. They were small individual niggles which didn't ruin our break, although I do not believe that the high price of the booking is represented in the quality of the property. The style and layout of the property was well adapted. Suitable for us to use as a base for our sightseeing during our time in North Wales. The Glyn Valley Hotel was lovely and a dog friendly venue (also with a menu for dogs), with a good selection of both food and drinks for humans.
I am glad that you managed to explore the lovely surroundings during your stay. I am so sorry about the poor level of cleanliness and lack of toilet paper, both of which are inexcusable. Apparently the cleaning company had a new inexperienced person who has now been changed, so these problems should not occur again. Directions to the key safe should be in the details on the Sykes site, but I will check this. The painting of the couple of patches mentioned has been done, but I will get there to check this too. Thank you for alerting me to these issues. Property Owner

"The property was lovely."
My only negative would be to have curtains or blinds at the bedroom windows, as light was shining in at dawn, also upstairs for privacy as could see as you was walking up.
Thank you for your comments. The reason I don't have blinds upstairs is that is not overlooked by any buildings. I will consider it for the future though, if there is an issue about light in the morning. Property Owner

"Absolutely lovely accommodation."
Everything you need is provided. Location was ideal for visiting the many beautiful days out nearby. Could do with some blinds/ curtains upstairs. Had a wonderful holiday.
I am so glad you enjoyed your stay. I am thinking about putting up blinds upstairs. Property Owner

"The chapel was very nice with comfy beds and good showers."
Lovely views all around with lovely walks. We visited the local hotel and pub and everyone was really friendly. A nice place to visit with the family

"We had a fantastic time , WiFi wasn't working which when we contacted the owner of the property was sorted straight away."
The place was clean and perfect for our time in north Wales. The chapel is situated in a lovely quiet village and is a perfect base to explore wonderful north Wales. We will definitely stay again.

The property
Tucked away in the lovely village of Glyn Ceiriog, Denbighshire discover this historical and fantastically-renovated former chapel, Chapel House.

Cross the threshold into your new abode to be impressed by the open-plan living space, a social hub where you and your loved ones can cook delicious meals, curl up in front of the woodburning stove or plan your itinerary as day rolls into night.
If you prefer to bask in your surroundings a little longer, step out onto your very own private outside area to delight in an alfresco mealtime, popping corks until the sun sets in the distance and pondering over your favourite memories so far.
Escape to the first floor where a mezzanine-style family bedroom awaits with an en-suite bathroom, or head to the lower-ground-floor to take advantage of a charming family room with a double and bunk beds, again with its own handy en-suite facilities.
If you can tear yourself away, head into the centre of Glyn Ceiriog where you’ll find a Post Office within the village shop and delightful pub, perfect for stocking up on the essentials or treating your loved ones to some hearty fare on the days you don’t feel like cooking!
Llangollen town is also a delightful area, brimming with independent shops and cafés, perfect for easing a self-catered stay.
Beauty spots to discover in the area include the National Trust property of Chirk Castle and the famous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, offering breath-taking, rural views, whilst visitors can also enjoy a horse-drawn barge trip along the canal (in season), aboard the steam train for trips up the valley in Corwen, or don your walking boots for a hike up Dinas Bran/ Crow Castle.
Also, within the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley AONB, enjoy Plas Newydd Historic House and Gardens Llangollen, where the ‘ladies of Llangollen’ lived, Llangollen Museum and Llangollen Bridge, which offers imposing views over the River Dee before embarking on a picturesque journey through the Welsh countryside via the Llangollen Railway.
Well-positioned to spend the day in the roman city of Chester, where you’ll find Chester Cathedral, Chester Racecourse and the Eastgate Clock, there is plenty to keep you and your loved ones occupied, along with visits to nearby Wrexham, home to Erddig Hall and Gardens, a lovely National Trust property.
Escape to North Wales, with Chapel House as your memorable base.

Formerly the centre of the slate mining industry in the valley, Glyn Ceiriog is located three miles south of Llangollen and offers a good range of local amenities, including two village pubs, a Post Office containing tourist information and a cafe, a well-stocked village store and a community sports centre, offering a range of activities including bicycle hire, tennis, indoor bowls and table tennis. Nearby, you will find a wide array of attractions, with the dramatic World Heritage Site of the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct well worth a visit.

Offering a good range of pubs and restaurants, as well as many interesting shops, the town also boasts a dramatic mountain backdrop.
