The Stables At Cae Gwyn Reviews

Wow from the moment we arrived and being greeted by Lindsay nothing was too much trouble. The house is stunning with a beautiful view. From start to finish we had the most amazing stay building precious family memories. My son enjoyed following Gus around and loved the animals coming to the fence to visit. One of the most memorable family breaks thank you so much Lindsay and Rich

Jennifer

Absolutely brilliant weekend for my 40th birthday would recommend anyone to come here. Lindsey was very accommodating and nothing was too much of an ask. Thank agin for an amazing stay will be back again soon

Stephanie

We've just had the most wonderful, relaxing stay at The Stables. We were welcomed by Lindsay with Gus the dog. The kids looked out for him every day and loved it whenever he came to say hello. The views from The Stables are amazing, the beds are super comfy and it feels really homely. There are lots of quiet spaces to sit around the house or open spaces to gather together. The farm is in a great central location to visit different places around North Wales and beyond. We did day trips as far as Anglesey and Liverpool. We would definitely love to come back.

Amanda

Absolutely lovely visit, would definitely stay here again. The photos do not do the property justice. Hosts lovely and we meet a few of their dogs including the famous Gus who appeared at the patio door the last few days. The only feedback would be the ensuite bathroom, the door is very stiff so if it is closed properly it's quite a pushpull to open the wood has possibly just swollen and the shower in the ensuite has very little pressure to it. Nothing to stop me visiting again.

Absolutely loved our stay at the Stables

The property and surrounding area is stunning. Very comfortable beds, beautifully appointed. Gus the sheep dog is very sweet, welcoming you to the cottage. Lovely welcome basket of treats were left for guests to enjoy. As a group of tired mums , we had the perfect stay, walking in the surrounding hills and relaxing in the hot tub. The hosts are very welcoming and live onsite. The only niggles were the knives were blunt unfortunately which made it tricky to prep food for meals, and a dribble of washing up liquid was provided and no sponge or brush for cleaning pots with.

Samantha

Gorgeous property and lovely owners. We had a great stay. Thank you.

What a lovely place to stay. I cannot fault any of it

Fantastic property with amazing views and friendly host.

What an absolute gem of a place , perfect location and absolutely idyllic. We had everything we needed , the hot tub was well used as was the log burner. Lots of goodies were left for us by the Hosts who were helpful and very approachable . Not forgetting Gus who was adorable. Would highly recommend and will be returning.

Michelle

Me and my partner have had the most perfect relaxing week here. Such a warm welcome from the owner. The accommodation is outstanding, comfy, so clean, had everything and more required for our stay. Special mention for Gus, their working sheepdog he's so friendly and amazing to watch at work. Nothing at all to fault with this holiday home we had the best time, thank you.

Alison

Best place we have ever stayed! Situated in a remote location,the house is beautiful,views are incredible. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming and responded to any queries straight away. The photos do not do the house justice. The rooms are all huge and traditionally furnished. The beds were extremely comfortable. Lots of different seating areas inside and out if you want a bit of peace to read. Hot tub was fantastic. I must echo what everyone else says about Gus the sheepdog, what a character. My son is scared of dogs but Gus won him over,he is such a gentle dog. Will definitely return here. We loved it.

Sandra

We enjoyed a lovely family holiday in beautiful countryside with stunning views. The house was simply perfect and Lindsay was always very kind and helpful.

Beautiful farmhouse wonderful location very friendly hosts

Stephen

Thank you for a fantastic stay the family are lovely and very unobtrusive, but on hand if needed and very welcoming. I cannot recommend this enough!

We could not fault the property,. It certainly lives up to its listing, providing everything a family could require and more. The views and tranquil setting were excellent. The hot tub, and games room particularly the pool table, and pac man games machine kept us all entertained when we returned from our full on days exploring North Wales. The hosts were on hand and responded promptly to any enquiriesrequests. We would certainly stay again and recommend to others as well.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Stables. The location is absolutely fantastic with views right across the valley. The house is large, spacious, and well furnished with plenty of games to keep you entertained including a pool table if the weather drives you in doors. However sitting in the jacuzzi watching the sun set across the valley is something I'll never forget.

My friend group had an amazing stay at the property was exactly as it appeared in pictures with great facilities including the games room which was a particular favourite of ours! Lindsay was a lovely host and as with others we particularly enjoyed having Gus the sheepdog's visits throughout our stay. Would absolutely stay again for another visit and would recommend to others as well.

Mohammed

Alexandra

We had a fantastic stay at the Stables, the property was beautiful, so homely, with incredible views and all the amenities we could ever need . .. and even more so with the games room the pacman machine was a hit with the whole family, it wasn't just the children trying to compete for the high score of the holiday! The owners lived just a house away so were so helpful if anything cropped up that needed them and they were always very happy to help. We would definitely stay here again!

The property was spotless with everything you need to enjoy your stay. The owners were very friendly & super helpful. Would highly recommend

Steven

Fantastic stay to celebrate new year. Property is very spacious inside and out. Enjoyed the games room and the views from the hot hub are stunning. We all miss Gus! He is adorable. Hope to return one day.

Louise

The Stables were lovely for a week at Christmas. Rich and Lindsay dressed it for Christmas with a beautiful real Christmas tree and other festive decorations. Nothing was too much trouble. Loved the views and peace and quiet and Gus the dogs daily visits

Sophie

A beautiful home, lovingly decorated and well equipped for a holiday rental. The hosts had very kindly decorated for Christmas even a beautiful Christmas tree! My family and I had the most wonderful time cooking in the large kitchen and relaxing in the hot tub! The hosts were very friendly and accommodating which made us feel even more welcome even their lovely dog Gus! We were absolutely amazed by the views of the Clywdian range and over the fields. Such a wonderful experience, would thoroughly recommend!

Sharon

Absolutely beautiful. Stunning countryside. Cottage was spacious, quirky, clean and the beds were very comfortable. Everything we needed for the weekend was taken care of, even down to tea towels for the kitchen. Hot tub was a massive hit for both adults and children. Nothing too much trouble for Lindsay when we needed to call her. Added bonus was watching Angus the sheep dog rounding up sheep on his own, brilliant.

Louise

Thank you for a lovely couple of days. You are wonderful hosts. What a fabulous place! So big, yet so cosy. Our 13 year old loved the pool table as did we! We felt so welcome and warm in your wonderful property and look forward to returning. It was amazing to have your sheepdog Gus accompany us on our walks he knew exactly where to go!

Stephen

A little drop of Welsh gold! We enjoyed a perfect short stay at The Stables. We were so impressed that we have booked our summer holiday here too. The location is beautiful, the amenities in the cottage effuse love and thought and the host is wonderful but not intrusive. You could not ask for a better stay and we are counting down the days until our next visit.

Joanne

Beautiful property! Perfect location!
