  Where do I start about this dream holiday!

  Wow! What an absolutely stunning property in the most beautiful setting! The view was just amazing; it looked like our own secret hideaway in the forest. We were greeted by 4 squirrels, so my girls were really excited! Then even more excited to see that Claire had left them strawberry milkshakes and mini cupcakes!! We loved how cosy it was, made even more so by the underfloor heating and fantastic lighting and the electric log burner. I loved that every detail had been thought of from the nuts to feed the squirrels, the log burner being for show so the kids didn't burn themselves, and the sign and flowers welcoming us. It was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean and tidy on arrival. Everything was provided for us to keep it this way too. There were robes and slippers for us to use in the sauna and a beautiful collection of aromatherapy oils. The sauna was wonderful and much appreciated addition, when we were after a fun, but relaxing holiday. I left there feeling so much better and after a long and stressful half term, it was just what we needed! The girls loved playing the board games, watching TV and most of all being outside feeding the squirrels and exploring the area. Even when it rained, the girls were having the best holiday. Claire was a perfect host. Before the holiday, she emailed to ask if we wanted to know places to visit and explore and where to eat. We definitely took her up on a few of her suggestions and these were fantastic. She asked which flavour milkshakes the girls would like and made sure she had thought of them as well as us. She came to greet us personally at the house and check we had everything we needed and checked back the next day which I thought was really thoughtful of her. We had no problems, but I know she would have sorted them instantly. She even came to say goodbye with a gift for us and the girls. She was the best host I have ever come across. I am so glad we chose the Nest for our family mini break. I couldn't have wished for a more perfect holiday. I highly recommend this place and we are all looking forward to staying again. Definitely 10/10 all round, I can not fault this property or host. Thank you for making our holiday so special.

  On arrival, out of respect, I took my shoes off but unfortunately the carpet in the bedroom was soaking wet.

  When discussed with staff, they said it had been deep cleaned prior to us arriving. The cabin was clean and well presented but unfortunately with the carpet being so wet, there was a strong damp smell throughout. The shower was cold. This was mentioned to the reception staff, no one came to sort it. Due to having PTSD, I have a service dog. I explained this to staff but unfortunately this wasn’t passed down and I was repeatedly questioned by multiple staff (some lovely, some not so kind) about this even though she had her labelled harness on. Unfortunately, 1 member of the bar staff was extremely rude- when I went to the bar to get a drink she was standing with her work colleague, looked me up and down and said to her work colleague ‘You can sort that one’. There was a dog roaming around outside the cabins, pooing everywhere which the owner didn’t clean up even though there are lots of dog bins. I had to point this out to staff. I refuse to pick up other people’s dogs poo. On leaving, there were two males sat in their car on the carpark right outside reception smoking very strong cannabis. Marian staff were seen walking past the car but nothing was mentioned. The car parking spaces were small and the disabled parking spaces were small too, there was only 4 and were being used by people in large trucks with no blue badges displayed. As a disabled badge owner, this is extremely frustrating!! I would like to say on a positive note- Jason the handyman was an absolute godsend and I wished I got to thank him before we left.

  We stayed here whilst we were waiting our house sale to go through and we are so pleased we made the choice to stay here.

  Firstly the owners are really lovely genuine people who will do anything for you. I did not ask them for much as to be honest there was nothing we needed yet the young man owner who I would see regular on the farm and he was such a pleasant man and there were two men in fact who were both very nice. The accomodation was absolutely beautiful and had the very best quality furnishings from bed linen to toilet brushes everything was quality. The whole experience was fabulous for me as I've just left East Sussex where I was a Radiology Nurse and the last two years have been dreadful therefore to be at these cottages to truly relax in awesome surroundings away from hospitals and patients and Covid was just amazing. I was initially worried about my partner as he is slightly infirm being 88 years however it was perfect for him. I didn't use the jacuzzi as its not my thing however all these little quality touches made the place special. It is a spectacular hideaway in a truly awesome setting. Although I'm moving to a new home here I'd love to come back stay a night or two late Summer. Thank you to the owners and the young man who Is one of the owners,you have a really lovely well thought out amazing place. I hope to come back again just for an odd day or two. Kind regards Michael

  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.

  Our lodge was in a lovely spot, up in the corner and a short walk to the facilities.

  It was clean but did have a dog smell. (I chose a doggie lodge as I wanted the option to invite a friend I was visiting in Wales over for coffee with her dogs, but we always went out!). The shower was big and always had plenty of hot water. The spa was a bit disappointing. The jacuzzi was attached to the pool and was cold (we had goosebumps!), the sauna had 'turned itself off' so was only 50 rather than 80 as it heated back up, but the steam room was good. We ate at the restaurant the first night and enjoyed our food and drinks. We were given vegan custard without being told it was vegan, but the colour and consistency of it looked all wrong. This was sorted quickly and yummy ice-cream was brought out very quickly to go with the delicious sticky toffee pudding! Huge range of cocktails on offer too.
