Brynhyfryd Retreat, Brynhyfryd Llanfwrog, Ruthin

Make a romantic getaway to this exquisite cottage in picturesque North Wales. Sleeping just two guests, the one-bedroom retreat nestles in gorgeous countryside 2 miles from historic Ruthin. Situated 3.5 miles from the fringes of the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it offers superb opportunities for walking and cycling, as well as for days out to the coast. Return from your exciting excursions to soak in your private hot tub and gaze out across your scenic surroundings. Enter the charming hideaway, which is set on land where the owner’s home is also located, but enjoys exceptional privacy, and leave your footwear in the utility room. Head into the kitchen to put the kettle on, chill a bottle of wine and unpack the Welsh produce you have shopped for. Prepare a delicious dinner for two then serve up to your loved one at the table through in the adjacent open-plan lounge/diner. This airy space has a wall of windows and glass doors that pull the views right into the room. Spend your evenings relaxing together in here in front of the Smart TV and a crackling wood burner. Pull the doors open on summer days to bring in a breeze. Climb the stairs every evening to lay your heads in your king-size bedroom, where there is another TV and an en-suite shower room. Make the most of the garden on sunny days. Fire up the BBQ, cook in the fresh air and enjoy a glass of fizz as the sun goes down over the hills. Head into Ruthin to see its castle, stock up on local delicacies and dine out. Mold, 12.5 miles away, and Denbigh, 8 miles from cottage, are also worth visiting. Plan a day out to the coast at Abergele, 19.5 miles away.
