Guests say
Plas Cwtta is a well-received cottage, praised for its beautiful location, spacious garden, and the added luxury of a hot tub. Guests appreciate the secure space for pets and children, the property's cleanliness, and the peaceful surroundings. The owners are noted for their friendliness and responsiveness. While most experiences are positive, a few guests mention the need for minor improvements.
The majority of guests found the cottage to be very clean, with specific compliments on the hot tub's cleanliness. However, one review mentioned cobwebs and another cited a poor standard of cleanliness, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is consistently described as lovely, secluded, and peaceful, with gorgeous views and proximity to Ruthin for amenities. The rural setting is a highlight for many guests.
Comfort is generally rated highly, with guests finding the cottage spacious and cosy. However, one guest mentioned an uncomfortable bed, and another suggested the addition of another bathroom, indicating room for improvement.
Facilities are well-regarded, especially the hot tub, secure garden, and conservatory. The play area and swings for children are also appreciated. A few guests suggest minor maintenance and the addition of a second bathroom.
While guests mention thoughtful touches like Prosecco, Welsh cakes, and the provision of towels and Crocs for the hot tub, these gifts are not consistently referenced across reviews, and as such, a score cannot be accurately provided. It should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed.
About this property
Ruthin 3.5 miles. This detached holiday cottage is situated down a private lane, a mile from the North Wales village of Clocaenog and just 3.5 miles from Ruthin. Originally an old shippon, this lovely cottage boasts traditional elements alongside a raft of modern features, including a sumptuous hot tub in the lawned garden. As you enter through the kitchen, you are immediately struck by the quality of the accommodation. Walk through into the large sitting room with its fabulous woodburner nestling in a brick fireplace and you know that you are going to feel right at home. The master bedroom leads off the sitting room, and the family bathroom is also on the ground floor, whilst upstairs are two cosy bedrooms. At the rear of the house is a large conservatory, which has underfloor heating and from where you can keep an eye on the children as they play in safety on the climbing frame and the swings, in the spacious lawned garden. Alternatively, sit and relax with a good book as you watch the sun go down, or soak up the lovely views of the surrounding countryside and the Clwydian mountain range. Undoubtedly, the most popular part of the property is going to be the fabulous hot tub, where you can let your cares wash away as you sit beneath the stars in this idyllic and peaceful location. The small village of Clocaenog is best known for the magnificent forest that bears its name and which runs to forty square miles. Pull on your walking boots or get out the mountain bikes and explore the woodland. On the far side of the forest is Llyn Brenig, a beautiful reservoir which has a popular visitor centre and a wide selection of good walks. The market town of Ruthin is just a short drive and is home to a wide selection of high street and independent stores, as well as a fine selection of cafes, pubs and restaurants. A superb family holiday home in beautiful North Wales countryside.
The hilltop town of Ruthin lies to the north of Llangollen via the breathtaking Horseshoe Pass. The town is picturesque with attractive half-timbered buildings, mainly clustered around St Peters Square.

Could do with a second bathroom for size and 6 people. Also a washing line would save using tumble dryer

We all had a fantastic time. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable and the hot tub is brilliant! The kids loved the climbing frame and swings. Prosecco and Welsh cakes on arrival were a lovely touch. We hope to return!

5 adults spent the weekend here and we had a wonderful time. The cottage had everything we needed. The hot tub was amazing, we used it a lot, it was beautiful at night watching it get dark with no light pollution. Obviously, only having one toilet downstairs can be tricky but it was only for the weekend and we managed. After all the rain the lawn was extremely wet and having our dog with us was difficult, trying not to get muddy paws in the cottage, we took towels and blankets for her. We enjoyed our stay in the area and explored some local walks and the town of Ruthin. Our hosts Adam and Katy were very helpful. All in all an excellent weekend.
