Gwyddelwern, Denbighshire
A conversion for two at Gwyddelwern near Corwen with a four-poster bed, everything on one floor and an enclosed dog paddock in an acre of garden, one dog welcome.
An enclosed dog paddock is not a phrase that turns up often in a holiday listing, and this place has one. Ysgubor Wen sleeps two at Gwyddelwern near Corwen, a dog friendly conversion with a four-poster bed, everything at ground level and an acre of landscaped garden. The paddock is separate from all that, and it is where the lead comes off.
One double bedroom with the four-poster, a shower room, and a lounge holding a sofa bed for a third person, all on one floor. The kitchen holds what two people need and nothing they do not. There is storage for bikes and paddleboards, a hint about the sort of week people have here, and a dog that has spent the day in a lake will find a ground floor bedroom useful.
An acre is a lot of garden for a building that sleeps two. It has been landscaped rather than left, with a paved patio, furniture, a BBQ and a gypsy caravan parked in the middle of it that is entirely the point. The paddock is the enclosed part, where a dog runs without a lead, which most cottages cannot offer at all. The owners are on site, so somebody is about if a gate sticks.
The Dee comes through Corwen on its way east, with Owain Glyndwr's statue in the square and the Berwyn hills rising to the south. Pistyll Rhaeadr is the reason to go up into them, the tallest single drop waterfall in Britain, falling through a rock arch with a path to the top. The lanes round Gwyddelwern carry almost nothing. One dog gets a paddock at home and a mountain range twenty minutes off.
