The cottage's charm and the owner's helpfulness contribute to a restful and enjoyable stay, despite some minor feedback on provisions and maintenance.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Most guests found the cottage to be very clean, with high hygiene standards mentioned. However, a few noted the presence of cobwebs and dust, suggesting room for improvement.

The location is consistently lauded for its tranquillity, beautiful views, and proximity to local attractions. It serves as an excellent base for exploring Shropshire and Wales.

Guests frequently compliment the comfortable beds and cosy setting of the cottage. The spaciousness and warmth of the property contribute to a comfortable stay.

The cottage is well-received for its amenities, especially the kitchen and outdoor areas. Some guests experienced issues with heating and a lack of certain provisions, indicating a need for attention to maintenance and facilities.

While guests are generally pleased with their stay, there is no specific mention of gifts or extra thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

About this property

Trefonen 1.6 miles. Resting between the market town of Oswestry and the endearing Welsh village of Llansantffraid-ym-Mechain, is the characterful, stone-built Graig Gwyn Cottage. Enjoying a rural position, this heart-warming retreat is perfect for couples, families and walkers seeking to explore the Offa's Dyke pathway, the Berwyn Mountain Range and all of the delights of the nearby towns and villages. After an action-packed afternoon, be welcomed in by the characterful interior with the vaulted ceiling and the exposed brick fireplace complementing the carefully selected furnishings to ensure a welcoming base to return to each evening. Venture into the farmhouse-style kitchen, where you will be delighted to find an impressive Range cooker and an exposed brick wall which plays backdrop to all the other quality appliances you will need to whip up your own home-cooked meals during your week-long stay. Situated up the staircase are two refreshing bedrooms, a king-size and a double, which house a bright colour palette and ample storage and space to house all of your personal belongings. During the summer months, venture outside to soak up the sun on the patio area where a spot of alfresco dining can be enjoyed before stretching your legs on the spacious lawn area, where the countryside views can be enjoyed further. If you don’t feel like cooking one evening, venture into the nearby village of Trefonen where you will find a traditional pub serving food, or venture slightly further to the town of Oswestry where you will be spoilt for choice by the selection of eateries that await you. For those seeking to explore the countryside, Jones' Rough nature reserve can be found at the of the lane, or setting further, the famous Offa’s Dyke Pathway is situated just 0.2 miles from the cottage which offers a magnitude of walks and breath-taking views. Other walks include the Berwyn Mountain Range and the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct offers a gentle stroll. Brush up on the local history by discovering the National Trust Properties of Erddig, Chirk and Powis Castles, all located within a short drive. Alternatively, venture to the historic city of Chester or the medieval town of Shrewsbury to discover further amenities. Graig Gwyn Cottage is a delightful base for exploring the countryside setting further.

Trefonen rests on the edge of the town of Oswestry and the Welsh village of Llanhaeadr-ym-Mochnant. Within in the small rural village you will find a pub, shop and has Offa's Dyke pathway running through.

    Beautiful location, tucked out of the way so lots of privacy but not too far from all of the amenities of Oswestry. It’s a lovely property and a great place to unwind and recharge. We’ve already booked a second week!

  • Nancy

    Totally tranquil. The owner has thought of everything. The photos don't do full justice to this property. It is cosy (but spacious) with comfy beds and lounge area, and tastefully decorated throughout. There are wonderful views from the gallery above the double height lounge, and ample dining space. We enjoyed a two night stay and will definitely return. Wonderful.

    ! Everything was great. Well appointed courage. Fantastic location for exploring. Can’t wait to come back with my three dogs, and my husband too!!
