“We absolutely loved our stay,The Loft is beautiful cottage in a stunning location.”
Deceptively spacious and luxurious, 2 bathrooms with showers and 1 good sized bath in the family bathroom. Under floor heating and individual room temperature controls. Fully equipped kitchen with good quality cookware. Great and secure large corner garden plot with ample parking. Views from all windows are breathtaking and we particularly enjoyed the views from the upper floor 'picture window' and skylights.

Deceptively spacious and luxurious, 2 bathrooms with showers and 1 good sized bath in the family bathroom. Under floor heating and individual room temperature controls. Fully equipped kitchen with good quality cookware. Great and secure large corner garden plot with ample parking. Views from all windows are breathtaking and we particularly enjoyed the views from the upper floor 'picture window' and skylights. Despite being almost adjacent to the owners property /working farm we were undisturbed by noise. What a wonderful find !

Andrew “Perfect property for our requirements.”
Well equipped converted barn with lovely views across the valley. Easy recommendation Note: Google maps took us into the farmyard which is round the back of the property. Suggest using what three words app for front door navigation.

Tracy “We had a wonderful week at The Loft.”
The cottage is fabulous. It has everything that you could possibly need. The views are spectacular and it is the perfect base for exploring the area. It is very clean and comfortable. We didn't want to leave! We visited Chester Zoo on one day and Chester is very easy to get to. We were surprised with the number of large stores available in Mold which is only 5 minutes away. There is an Aldi, Lidl, Tesco, B&M, Home Bargains. There is also a good range of takeaways. Our family has myself and my partner and teenage children so it suited our needs perfectly. We will definitely book again!

Luckily, the weather was beautiful. A really lovely stay if you want to unwind and relax for a few days. The host was incredibly helpful regarding our late departure and any other concerns we may have had. Would definitely return.

Steve “Lovely place great position for exploring the north Welsh coast and mountains.”
- Steve, March 2024 -
Alan “The cottage is warm and welcoming and in a good location.”
Spotlessly clean with everything needed for self catering. Plenty of outdoor space (not that we could make use of it in December but great for families in the summer). It is on a working farm, with one side overlooking the farmyard but it’s well insulated from any noise and very quiet. A couple of occasional tables and table lamps in the seating area would make it a bit cosier and more comfortably lit for reading (instead of the high level spotlights).
- Alan, December 2023 -
Kath “Lovely property - beautifully decorated and stunning scenery, pictures don't do it justice!”
Easy key access and owner helpful. Unfortunately the weather wasn't kind to us so we didn't get to venture out but it was lovely to relax with friends and enjoy the space. As advertised it is on a working farm so expect a little farm noise - not obtrusive though. Only other point to note is that two of the twin beds are low to the floor so not ideal for adults - 4 adults and 2 children should be the advertised maximum occupancy for this property in my opinion. A gorgeous conversion though and ideal for a family/ slightly smaller group.
- Kath, October 2023 -
Margaret Ann “The most delightful cottage, very well designed and great thought involved by the owners to provide all facilities for an extremely comfortable stay.”
I would highly recommend The Loft to anyone considering a break in North Wales. Margaret
- Margaret Ann, September 2023 -
Tina “Fabulous place.”
.fantastic views..
- Tina, September 2023 -
Robert “Hi The Loft is a very nice place, clean, modern and comfortable.”
We had everything we needed, including a complementary bottle of wine Coffee and sugar. The only down side we had, which is not the owners fault, was the large spider population, ( now much reduced ), if we had a phobia it would have been a problem because they were on the large size.
- Robert, September 2023 -
Ian “Lovely barn conversion finished to a very high standard.”
Very well designed and equipped kitchen. Bathrooms finished to a very high standard. Very comfortable beds. Owner was friendly and provided a parasol for the patio table so we could enjoy the wonderful views from the large flat patio area without getting sunburnt. Would definitely recommend it to anyone coming to this lovely area.
- Ian, September 2023 -
Cameron “We enjoyed our stay at the Loft immensely, it had everything you would need for a pleasant holiday and ideally situated for touring North Wales.”
- Cameron, August 2023 -
Andrea “The Loft was absolutely lovely, everything was spotlessly clean, modern and really comfortable, the kids loved their bedrooms, it was just what we needed so thank you very much for a great stay.”
Just one small point, we could have done with an outdoor washing line as we were washing every day (messy kids when we're out and about!!), and the airer was useful but not enough for all the clothes we were washing. The warm washing machine cupboard was great for drying stuff though!
- Andrea, July 2023 -
Paul “The cottage was lovely.”
Never stopped in one as clean and well presented. Everything we needed. Lovely comfy beds as well
- Paul, June 2023 -
Jenny “The property was amazing, it had everything that you could need.”
It was peaceful and the views were stunning. Would definitely consider returning in the future.

Rebecca “Lovely cottage with amazing views.”
- Rebecca, April 2023 -
Kerry “We had a lovely stay over Easter.”
Everything was clean and tidy and the facilities provided were excellent. It was a shame we didn’t visit in the summer as the outside space was generous. The weather wasn’t good enough for us to sit outside unfortunately. The underfloor heating in the living room was very nice to come into - it made me feel warm immediately. Definitely recommend.
- Kerry, April 2023 -
Susan “Lovely setting.”
Beautifully converted building, and well equipped home from home.
- Susan, October 2022 -
Angela “We felt very at home it was beautiful.”
The facilities were excellent a good base to explore from. We stayed for the weekend but would have liked to stay longer.
- Angela, September 2022 -
Rita “A comfortable, well equipped, beautifully clean holiday cottage with wonderful views.”
We enjoyed our stay.
- Rita, August 2022 -
Alison “We loved our stay at the Loft, thank you so much.”
It was perfect for us as a family of 6, the kids aged 7-19 stayed upstairs and had their own space and there was a great selection of games for us to play in the evening. Also there was a great space outside for our Footie mad boys to be able to play football in the early evenings. Thanks again we’d love to come back.
- Alison, May 2022 -
Julia “We loved it here.”
When we arrived, we were so pleased to see how lovely the holiday cottage was (above and beyond our expectations). The views are amazing and the place is so clean, comfortable and also they’ve thought of everything that we could have possibly needed, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you so much. We would love to come back someday. Ps. We loved the fresh eggs.
- Julia, April 2022 -
Matthew “Wonderful property in a great location.”
The accommodation was faultless and perfectly equipped. We loved having the working farm next door and the fresh eggs were delicious. Very close to Mold with all the amenities you need. One of the best cottages we’ve stayed in and would highly recommend.
- Matthew, April 2022 -
Kathryn “A lovely Barn Conversion, cosy & comfortable, everything you need and a great location.”
It was very private even though the owners are nearby. The fresh eggs are a must and the pub is a short walk away.
- Kathryn, March 2022 -
Ben “Fantastic cottage, lovely stay, I can't fault the facilities, the comfort or how clean the place was when we arrived.”
We didn't hear any animal noise at all. The views from the cottage are beautiful and the distance you can see fantastic. Lovely place, thank you.
- Ben, January 2022 -
Shorif “Nice an clean cottage”
- Shorif, November 2021 -
Karen “The Loft is lovely & has been converted to a very high standard.”
The equipment & furnishings are good quality & generally comfortable. The only problem we had was that 2 of my friends found their bed not very comfortable. They were sleeping upstairs in the twin beds, both ladies are quite tall. Kathleen Hughes was so helpful & provided extra bedding on request & also offered fresh eggs from her hens which were wonderful. It is a working farm & so interesting in the morning to watch all the animals. The Loft was not far from Mold which had a market twice weekly selling local produce. Would definitely recommend if you have children as lots to see & do in the surrounding district.
- Karen, November 2021 -
Sally “Excellent cottage.”
Second visit and loved it there again . Lovely area and quiet. Never heard cattle
- Sally, September 2021 -
Julie “Chose this as I’m in a wheelchair but definitely not suitable as the shower could not fit my wheeled shower chair.”
Would be perfect with a wet room. For the rest of the party it was perfect. Great views and the cattle farm is quiet.
- Julie, August 2021 -
Sara Alicia “This is such a lovely place to stay & the owner is very helpful.”
We had a small accident in the house, as we were covered with Sykes insurance both Sykes & owner were brilliant. Lovely location with lots to do . Second time we have stayed & will be going back .
- Sara Alicia, July 2021 -
Nikki “So relaxing, so clean, just beautiful!”
- Nikki, June 2021 -
Ian “Everything was perfect.”
- Ian, June 2021 -
Sandra “A beautiful place to stay - everything you need is provided and to a good standard!”
Very clean. Exiting the property on to the road is a bit tricky - we nearly got hit by a bus coming down the hill around the corner! Perhaps a mirror on the road would help (not sure what to call it!). Otherwise a lovely stay and can recommend it.
- Sandra, June 2021 -
Petko “Beautiful place and Lovely cottage.”
We had the great weekend.Thank you.!!!
- Petko, June 2021 -
Jennifer “After rescheduling our trip to Wales because of the COVID outbreak, we were delighted to eventually arrive at The Loft in glorious sunshine.”
You will not be disappointed with the location, setting & meticulous attention to detail that has been applied to the property. Our hosts were exactly what you want, available if needed & not intrusive at all & we certainly appreciated the welcome bottle of wine on our arrival. The Loft has been renovated to a very high standard & beautifully furnished. Anything that you might need on a daily basis was provided for, even a bbq that we used to cremate a few sausages on. They have thought of everything. Be sure to visit the Red Lion pub, just up the grassy path for a decent beer & a friendly welcome. The views from the outdoor seating were spectacular. We came to Wales to visit Mold, were my Grandfather was born & raised, it’s around 5 minutes drive from The Loft & has all the usual supermarkets, restaurants & pubs that you might need. A great wee town for a nosey around & lovely locals. We would absolutely recommend The Loft to anyone who is looking to stay in the glorious North Wales countryside.
- Jennifer, September 2020 -
Hayley “We really enjoyed are break at the Loft.”
It was what we wanted at this present time, away from everything, but lots to do int the local area. The Loft is a lovely building that has been really thought about, is an excellent standard and well maintained in it's own grounds. It has everything that you need to cook in doors and out. One en-suite and a big family bathroom on the ground floor. A warm welcome from the host. Try the fresh farm eggs. Well worth a visit.
- Hayley, September 2020 -
Sally “We absolutely loved our 5 night stay at the Loft.”
The views from the patio are stunning. Great whilst we enjoyed a cuppa. The situation of the cottage is beautiful as on a right bend but road is pretty quiet. Oh and the fresh eggs from the chickens are yummy. There was no noise at all from the cows. We would love to visit the loft again
- Sally, August 2020 -
Helen “We had a great time staying at the loft.”
It was perfect and exceeded our expectations. We would recommend the loft to anyone and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. The owners are very friendly and it’s fab staying on a working cattle farm, my boys loved the chickens too. Thank you so much for a great week.
- Helen, August 2020 -
Magenta “On arrival at ‘The Loft’ we were amazed at how gorgeous it was, it’s exactly like the pictures.”
We were contacted by Kathy a couple of days before asking if we had any questions and if we wanted to buy some fresh eggs. We did and they were delicious!! It was lovely seeing the cows and chickens everyday and the scenery was lovely. We were here early August and there was two lightning storms which were magnificent to watch from ‘The Loft’! The facilities are top notch. Everything was clean, modern and luxurious. 100% recommend!!
- Magenta, August 2020 -
Paul “Absolutely lovely place, had everything we needed and to such a high quality.”
Beds amazing and had great night sleeps! Garden lovely and spacious and enjoyed many bbqs on the patio. Owners are lovely as well and loads to do around the surrounding area.
- Paul, July 2020 -
Debby “We had an amazing time at The Loft.”
The accomdation was immaculately clean, beautifully kept and really comfortable, had everything we could have wanted. The views from the garden and windows from the property are spectacular. Well appointed for exploring North Wales, being a few miles from the North Wales Express Way. Takes a bit longer to get to villages etc near Snowdonia, due to slower B roads etc, but well worth the extra time travelling to be able to come back to this beautiful barn. Friendly, responsive owners, we cant wait to return and highly recommend this place.
- Debby, July 2020 -
Janice “Fantastic cottage with everything you could need.”
It is warm, comfortable and of the highest standard of facilities and cleanliness. Location is excellent being rural but close to Mold and only a couple of miles from the North Wales Expressway for travelling to the many attractions in the area.
- Janice, February 2020 -
Maurice “All that The Loft needs is a teapot.”
- Maurice, December 2019 -
Siobhan “The cottage was lovely, one of the nicest ive stayed in - underfloor heating was ace”
- Siobhan, December 2019 -
Joanne “Recently stayed at this accommodation for a short break.”
There were 7 of us- 4 adults, 3 children, one of whom is a baby. We fitted comfortably. The Loft is situated perfectly in a rural location, but close to local amenities, so perfect for a family getaway. The owner met us on our arrival and went out of her way to accommodate us. The property itself is immaculately clean with practically everything you would require for a break away covered. The home made cake and bottle of wine on our arrival was also a welcome surprise! We would definitely return to The Loft, without a doubt.
- Joanne, October 2019 -
Stephanie “Beautiful cottage for a family, clean, warm, and amazing views, the owner has thought of every little extra, also leaving wine milk and cake thank you.”
The Beds are so comfortable we didn’t want to leave, We would love to return
- Stephanie, October 2019 -
Silvia “We had a most wonderful week in The Loft, its a beautiful and well laid out barn conversion.”
The facilities are superb, the Kingsize bed was extremely comfortable and the ensuite is first class. We liked the the main bathroom as it very roomy with a lovely bath and separate shower and plenty of light and space for toiletries etc and great magnified mirrors for shaving for men. The location was great as we liked the semi rural location but great for local amenities and our travelling day trips and we had plenty of privacy in the lovely garden patio where we had sundowners. The Wine and home baked Welsh fruit loaf was appreciated.
- Silvia, September 2019 -
Trevor “This is about the best self catering accommodation we have experienced in many years of travelling on holiday.”
The hosts are very pleasant and the accommodation contains every imaginable facility and comfort. The sitting area furniture is very comfortable as was the bed we slept in on the ground floor. The bathrooms were top notch. The kitchen is very well equipped. Everything including the barn conversion was new this year and we were only the second guests. The location is excellent for touring all of North Wales and is only 5 minutes from the expressway leading all along the North Coast.
