  • "We felt incredibly lucky to stumble across this idyllic annex property in north Wales."

    It felt very spacious, the kitchen had everything you could need (proper sharp chef's knives! So rare in a holiday let!), the bathroom was enormous, the king size bed was wonderfully firm and very comfortable, we loved the log burner - but the piece de resistance was of course the enormous wall of windows out onto a gorgeous patch of forest garden. We were visited by squirrels, nuthatches, tits and robins, and we saw goldcrests, buzzards, kites and more nearby. Highly recommended for any nature lovers. Steve was a fantastic host, always ready to offer advice on local dog walks etc. We recommend this place without hesitation.

    Thank you for your review. Delighted you had a good holiday - and enjoyed the wildlife. All the best Steve Property Owner

Looking forward to next year

  • "The property was very DIRTY cobwebs dead insects and other things all over."

    Windows look like something or someone had been trying to eat there way out.

    I am sorry that you weren’t happy with the cleanliness. I do pride myself on presenting the cottage well -which is usually commented upon by guests. I appreciate that the outside window needed cleaning - and a sorry that you didn’t accept help from my cleaner when they called to rectify this I hope that you were still able to enjoy your trip to North Wales Best wishes, Steve.

  • "I would highly recommended a stay here if you are looking for a very cosy, clean and peaceful place to stay which was central to be able to visit so many parts of North Wales without feeling like we had to travel for hours to get to."

    Could not fault it as we had everything needed for a comfy stay including all kitchen utensils which is very rare from previous experiences. Our dog had a safe area to be able to run around and lots of new smells in the garden area included in the property and with Rhug farm estate literally at the bottom of the road a good walk to keep her entertained. Also receiving the email just before our stay from Steven was very helpful and also showed the thoughtfulness made to make our stay easier.

    Thank you. Glad you had a good holiday . See you again I hope. S Property Owner

    Very relaxing. Lots to do nearby. The quiet side roads in the area ideal for cycling. Icing on the cake was the wide range of birds you could see from the rental. Loved sitting outside listing to the bird song enjoying the atmosphere at this great rental.

The property

Nestled amidst the mature greenery of North Wales, on the outskirts of the charming market town of Corwen, rests this wonderfully romantic one-bedroom holiday home, Ucheldref. Boasting secluded and rural surroundings whilst enjoying close proximity to the delights of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park and the coastline of North Wales, Ucheldref provides an idyllic base for a romantic retreat for two.

Park up in the off-road parking space provided and unload your belongings with ease, making your way through the mature woodland enveloping your new home-from-home, brimming with a host of wildlife to keep you company, with robins, bullfinches and chaffinches decorating the treetops.

Stepping inside, be charmed by the bright and airy interior of the open-plan living space, beautifully-appointed with vaulted ceilings, a rustic woodburning stove and a collection of high-quality fixtures and fittings, effortlessly blending traditional with contemporary.

Look forward to putting your feet up with a crisp glass of wine in hand as the crackle of the woodburning stove provides the backtrack to your evening or whipping up romantic meals for two to be enjoyed at the nearby dining table.

In the warmer months, why not make the most of your peaceful, farmland setting and soak in the last of the evening sunshine with a seat in the garden?

When sleep calls, the sumptuous king-size bed can be found settled on the mezzanine, overlooking the scenic greenery of the garden, and intimately tucked under the vaulted ceiling, providing a snug spot to catch your rest.

In the morning, enjoy a leisurely wake up with a steaming cup of coffee in the garden before utilising the overhead shower in the ground floor bathroom to kick-start your day!

Make the most of your peaceful, countryside surroundings, and soak in the sights with a leisurely stroll along the banks of the River Dee, where you can treat yourself to a well-deserved pint with a pit stop at The Royal Oak, or refuel with an indulgent slice of cake at the Rhug Estate Farm Shop and Cafe; whilst you're there, why not peruse the organic farmers market in search of local goodies?

The picture-perfect town of Llangollen is set within easy reach, home to the Plas Newydd Historic House & Gardens, boasting a fascinating history dating back to the 14th-century, along with Llangollen Museum and the Vale of Llangollen Golf Club; for a unique experience, board the horse-drawn canal boat at discover Britain’s largest aqueduct, Pontcysyllte.

A visit to North Wales wouldn't be complete without an adventure amongst the craggy peaks of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park; lace up your walking boots and hike to the summit of Yr Wyddfa (Mount Snowdon), famed as the tallest point in Wales, delve deep underground with a tour of the ancient quarry mines at Zip World Llechwedd, or simply enjoy a tranquil afternoon atop the glistening waters of Bala Lake.

With so much to see and do resting at your fingertips, be sure to choose Ucheldref as the base for your next retreat to North Wales.
