Mertyn Crewe

About this property

Mertyn Crewe, a 19th century farm building, has been lovingly restored as it overlooks the River Dee towards the city of Liverpool, with the North Wales market town of Holywell just two miles away. With the marvellous North Wales Coast in close proximity, make this welcoming retreat the base for a break with your loved ones. The property's character is apparent from the moment you arrive; the quarry tiled flooring and original bakery features welcome you and lead you into the kitchen. Your meals can be rustled up in this stunning layout, set with charming cream-coloured units, rustic wooden worktops, a range cooker and a stunning breakfast bar to enjoy your morning cup of tea at. The exposed beams lead you into the first sitting room, an alluring setup with leather sofas, a TV and a period woodburner to warm you up on the cooler evenings. The social dining room, featuring a lovely decorative fireplace, separates the two sitting rooms, with the second relaxing spot boasting a comfortable corner sofa and an antique open fireplace. At the top of the stairs cosily rests a peaceful snug area with two armchairs, perfect to read a good book away from the hustle and bustle. Just off the landing sits a contrasting modern bathroom, an all-white suite with the choice of a bath and a separate shower cubicle. From here you will find three of Mertyn Crewe's bedrooms, two of which benefit from luscious super king-size beds, one of which is zip and link and can be a twin bed on request, while one offers a standard king-size, also benefiting from being zip and link, all are decorated delightfully to ensure a comforting resting space. The fourth bedroom is a calming and private place to get your rest, as it is accessed from an external set of stone steps, it also provides a modern en-suite shower room - perfect to get some peace and quiet.
