Ysgubor Ucha Reviews

Camilla
This is the best cottage stay we have ever done! The house is so well equipped with a washing machine, tumble drier, iron and ironing board and dishwasher. The house is beautifully tidy, clean and warm. We loved it and would definitely go back.
Lovely homely touches made you feel welcome, small things provided made a big difference. Exactly as described couldn't fault it highly recommend cottage. Our 2 dogs loved it too. March 2026
Alison
This was our second visit to Ysgabor Ucha and it didn't disappoint. Lovely welcome pack eggs, milk, bread, homemade jam. So quiet and peaceful. Cottage aesthetic with all mod cons. Super dog friendly. Highly recommended.
Just love this cottage, this is our 3rd visit and definitely wont be our last. We take our two dogs which just settle in straight away. The cottage is spotlessly clean and so comfortable. We love the walks that are all within a short drive. Love just chilling in the peace and quiet. The welcome goodies are much appreciated and such a kind gesture thank you so much, again !
Stuart
We had a lovely three nights at this cottage with our furry friend, to get away from the noise and the fireworks of the city. It was very rural and very peaceful, the only noise was from sheep baaing outside the bedroom window and the occasional tractor passing. It was warm and comfortable, the bed was super comfy. The log burner was nice. The thoughtful welcome gifts were lovely. All in all, we would visit again.
Leslie
A gorgeous little property with great facilities. A quaint stone built Welsh cottage with history even down to the stone masons marks above the two fireplaces. We arrived late afternoon in the dark and the owners came out to meet us to direct us to the house. The bedroom was spacious, lovely nice and warm and the bed was comfortable, we had very restful nights sleep. The welcome pack was great, a nice touch after the drive. Everything was as described, perfect. The only thing that could be improved would be an enclosed secure rear garden to allow small dogs to have access to. We would book again in the summer months.
A beautiful cottage in quiet rural surroundings,Neil and Karyn were next door but respected our privacy. Excellent accommodation, comfy bed, great welcome pack and with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We cannot recommend this cottage highly enough, we will certainly be booking again .10 stars.
Such a beautiful cottage and the main thing that hit us as we entered was just how much care, thought and love has gone into making the visit so welcoming for guests. We had a lovely surprise of a welcome pack with welsh cakes, bread, fresh eggs, milk, homemade jam, beautiful fresh flowers and a jar of dog treats all on a beautiful bespoke hand made wooden board. The cottage has a rustic charm with a beautiful secure cottage garden all around that had lots of areas for our dog Hunter to explore. It is so peaceful and quiet. There is an amazing view of fields and hills from the bedroom with sheep and pheasants. The bed is so comfortable. Such dark skies here too. The cottage is really well equipped with lots of extras like tea, coffee, sugar, iron, hairdryer, washing detergent etc. It's also spotlessly clean. A great experience, very relaxing and honestly can't say anything was missing. They have thought of it all. Thank you very much!
Ysgubor Ucha is a delightful & humble little cottage with a wrap around garden & a private gate, with off road space for one vehicle. But don't be deceived, inside the property both the kitchen & bedroom are spacious & very well equipped with fridge freezer, single oven, microwave & washer drier. Off the kitchen is a modern shower, toilet & sink which is very smart, with little extras such as a stash of toilet rolls & face flannels. We were invited to switch the central heating settings to constantly 'on' from timer, should we require as the colder nights draw in. However, with the addition of a complementary large log burner & basket of logs in the cosy lounge, you really are spoiled for choice. We appreciated the welcome milk, loaf, eggs & homemade bramble jam... a treat to find on arrival after a very long journey from Surrey. Having a very curious and hyper alert Boxer dog, we appreciated the peace & tranquility of the location & especially the kindness & understanding of Neil & Karyn who, as dog lovers, were sensitive to our dog's needs, not to mention the doggie treats, & stash of clean towels for him. We discovered a lovely setting nearby with a charming pub called The Leyland Arms, where the puddings were divine! A small settlement with a large cricket green & tiny clubhouse, and a small community park. The Landlady couldn't do enough for us, & the pub had a welcoming atmosphere with two large tabby cats, one you wouldn't want to mess with! We thoroughly enjoyed the serenity of the cottage & gardens & the beauty of this setting & the Dee Valley. So much so, we have booked again for next year... Thank you, for your lovely hospitality Neil & Karyn

This property was a little gem. Everything about it was just perfect. For a couple staying with dogs secure garden I would highly recommend staying at Ysgubor Ucha.
Gwyneth
The cottage was all that we were looking forward to and more. It was warm, comfortable and spotlessly clean. There was a welcome tray, a thoughtful addition. The views of the Clwyd Valley from the bedroom were lovely. The situation was very rural, the perfect spot for exploring North Wales. We had a wonderful week and we hope to be able to return.
Lovely cottage , very clean and well maintained, pleasure to stay there .
The cottage was absolutely gorgeous, it had everything you needed and more, The gardens were well maintained, Our dogs loved exploring and chilling in the garden which was very secure, The veiws from the cottage were amazing especially the sunrise every morning, The cottage was very quiet and peaceful just what we needed.
Outstanding Stay at Ysgubor Ucha! We had such a fantastic time at Ysgubor Ucha. The cottage was spotless really clean and tidy and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It felt so welcoming, like a proper home away from home. One of the nicest surprises was how dogfriendly it was. Towels and even toys were provided for the dogs such a thoughtful and appreciated touch! Wed definitely love to come back and would highly recommend Ysgubor Ucha to anyone looking for a peaceful, wellequipped getaway.
Rachael
We had a lovely stay here. The cottage was very clean, quiet and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We received a welcome pack with eggs, bread, jam, milk which was a great touch. Our dog enjoyed playing in the large secure garden and munching on the dog treats provided. It is a lovely part of the world with great views and we found lots to do only wish we had booked for longer. I would thoroughly recommend.
Judith
Lovely comfortable cottage, set in beautiful and peaceful countryside
The gardens are an absolute delight,sitting outside on the patio in the evening sunshine was a lovely way to wind down. Kitchen is very well equipped for any cooking task. Welcome pack a very lovely kind touch and with fresh flowers on the table. The Shower was a joy to use after a day of exploring Wales.
Excellent Property and Nice garden for the dog. . Great view from the bed of the mountains and hills. Was well equipped and shower was the best we have had in a property. However the extractor fan switch should be mentioned in the instructions. Only found the switch when I realised we have one in our wet room and there must be a switch in the kitchen for the bathroom.
Beautiful cottage in peaceful surroundings. Has everything you need and a lovely welcome pack is provided to start your stay off perfectly. We have been here 3 times and have booked again for next year.
A lovely cottage with a beautiful garden
Dorothy

Beautiful views lovely garden for the dogs to explore. Only a few days there but would go back next time for longer. We were sad to leave such a lovely place in Wales
Antony
A real gem of a property with lovely host. In a wonderful location surrounded by farm land this is a real home from home, all you could need with a lovely secure garden which our two Norfolk Terriers loved to explore. A lovely welcome pack for us and the dogs made us feel welcome straight away. Was lovely to meet our host, can nothing but recommend a stay as you will not be disappointed.
Lovely little cottage, very comfortable and a great location to explore north, east Wales. The cottage has great views and is on a quiet lane with a small garden. We enjoyed watching a good selection of lovely garden birds and plenty of owls in the area. When we arrived there was a great welcome pack left for us with Welsh cakes, free range eggs, milk, home made jam and treats for our furry friend. Also dog toys which our collie enjoyed. The cottage is well equipped and is furnished with good quality furniture and a very comfortable bed.
Richard
Excellent retreat for relaxing, Excellent garden and views, clean comfortable and quiet. Would highly recommend.
Absolutely stunning cottage with everything you need to hand to ensure a comfortable stay. Amazing welcome gift when arrived and beautiful set up as dog friendly too. Hosts were amazing and there if we needed anything but we didn't as everything set up perfectly. Location brilliant in the countryside and easy access via car to all the sites around. Would 100 recommend staying at the cottage, you will not be disappointed.
Beautiful cottage. It had everything we needed. Appreciated the heating being on when we arrived in the evening. Was a lovely touch having the bread, eggs, milk, Welsh cakes and homemade jam waiting for us.
Michael
A gorgeous cottage with everything you could need. Private and very clean with lovely views. The hosts were on hand if needed but not intrusive at all. The welcome tray was a delightful surprise. All in all a great week with our two little dogs. We will be recommending this cottage to all our friends and family and we will return very soon.
Deborah
Just returned from a fabulous week! Everything about our stay was amazing, from the text from the owner to say the property was ready for us, when we were on our way, the welcome pack, to finding the superbly clean and beautiful, well equipped, cosy, warm property on our arrival to closing the door as we left ! Most importantly our dog settled in right away which is always a relief to us, and the tap outside was extremely useful for washing off muddy paws after a day of exploring the nearby forests. The view from the bedroom is a real treat you wont be disappointed by it if you choose to stay here! Along with a lovely log burner housed in a beautiful fireplace, this property is a real gem ! The friendly owners of the property live next door, and are on hand if theres any problems.. which we didnt have, they also maintained our privacy throughout our stay! We hope to return one day soon and would definitely recommend the property to family and friends! Thank you for having us x

We loved the cottage and its garden it has everything you could possibly need and is so comfortable, the owners greeted us personally and showed us round, there was a lovely welcome pack which even had a jar of treats for our dog
We loved this property, it exceeded all our expectations and would love to come back. The owners were superb and super helpful too.
Michael
Absolutely perfect. Spent a wonderful and relaxing week at this idyllic cottage. Very comfortable and all the amenities you could wish for, especially the washerdryer for a week in North Wales in the wind and rain with two wet dogs and two humans!! Lots of dog friendly walks and places to explore within a 90 minute drive but a pure feeling of isolation once tucked away in this cosy cottage.
Lovely property. Lovely people. Beautiful location
Lovely clean cottage with great communication from the hosts. Comfy bed and all the facilities youd expect. Lovely and quiet and not remote but certainly off the beaten track
Beautiful secluded cottage located in the Welsh countryside. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed. TV had Netflix and there was also a DVD player with a selection of DVDs. Very accommodating for dogs with a huge secluded garden. We will definitely be visiting again.
Stuart

Andrew
Our second visit to this property 916 November 2024 and it is still five star. The cottage is so warm and comfortable with everything you need at hand. Mid autumn and a bit chilly but a blanket on the settee, likewise blankets in the bedroom but get the fire lit and you will leave them where they are. Our border collie Jonty still sits all day in the garden and this year he had company in the adjoining field, the sheep were out, just sat and watched. Utter heaven, thank you Karyn and Neil.
