Y Gadlas Nant Celyn, Bryn Eithin Gwyddelwern, Corwen

A stylish pod offers a tranquil spot for couples who want to enjoy a quieter pace of life as they explore the scenic landscape of North Wales. One pet is also welcome. Located close to the market town of Corwen, the pod has a hot tub and lovely, far-reaching rural views. Corwen has shops, pubs and eating places, and there is a wealth of walks, cycle paths and mountain trails in the surrounding countryside. Beautiful Llangollen on the banks of the River Dee and historic Ruthin, both within 15 miles, have a host of attractions to enjoy. Wake up to wonderful country views from your king-size bed in this cosy retreat. A comfortable sofa, dining table and compact kitchen in the charming, open-plan interior all have the same lovely outlook through large glass doors. The pod is beautifully furnished in contemporary style, with a colour palette of grey, white and touches of yellow. A streamlined shower room completes the well-planned layout. Outside, relax and admire the view from the hot tub on the patio, which has garden furniture and a BBQ—perfect for outdoor dining. See the prehistoric stone in Corwen’s 12th century church and walk or cycle on trails through the Clocaenog Forest (9 miles), as you look out for red squirrels. At Corwen station, hop on the delightful Llangollen Heritage Railway steam train for a 10-mile scenic journey beside the River Dee. Llangollen is famous for the annual Eisteddfod and as a World Heritage site for its canal and the spectacular Pontcysysllte Aqueduct. Enjoy a horse-drawn, dog-friendly boat trip along the canal or a motorised journey across the Aqueduct. Visit Ruthin for a journey through time at Nantclwyd y Dre, a medieval house with 500 years of history.
