About this house rental

Enjoy spectacular views and wonderful peace and quiet in St Garmons, our warm and comfortable former Rectory which has been completely renovated. Perfect for one or two families wanting to holiday together, but still have some privacy, the house is particularly spacious and well-equipped. The village is renowned for its 2 gastronomic award-winning pubs, only a short walk away. The area is packed with things to do: great walking in the Berwyn Mountains - right on the doorstep, or in Snowdonia beyond; pony trekking and riding just down the road. The beautiful Ceiriog Valley -" a little piece of Heaven on earth" to quote David Lloyd George - is rich in history: visit Chirk Castle, the awe-inspiring UNESCO Telford Aqueducts and amazingly preserved Erdigg Hall, or Llangollen, world famous for its International Music Eisteddfod, Heritage Steam Trains, Horse-drawn Canal Boat trips, and White Water Rafting. There is golf and fishing locally and a new swimming pool in Oswestry.

We were staying at the house for 11 days, it was clean, nice and big, it has everything you might need, the owner is very helpfull and makes sure that you have everything you need. we really enjoyed it, and will recomend it to everyone.

10.0 / 10.0

The house was very welcoming, comfortable and spacious for 10 of us. Loads of room for everyone to get together but also to get away from each other. The garden was delightful - we enjoyed the evening sunshine and bbqs whilst the kids played - and the views are beautiful. The house is very well equipped and set up for family life. It has a homely feel, although is a little tired in places. The location is pretty rural and some of the roads make for a challenging drive if you’re not used to that but it is peaceful and there are some lovely walks. The Hand pub was excellent. Patrick was extremely helpful and proactive, with plenty of information about the house and surrounding area. We really enjoyed our stay and loved the house. Thank you!

We have had a brilliant family holiday in your beautiful home. There were 11 of us (7 adults and 4 children) covering 3 generations. Everything was just perfect and all the kids loved playing games especially hide and seek! We enjoyed visiting the local area with lots of walks and drives - Lake Vyrnwy and Chirk were particular highlights and well worth a visit. It is not until you experience the peace, quiet and tranquility of Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog you realise how busy, hectic and noisy the real world is. Hopefully we will be back one day to enjoy beautiful Wales.

Beautiful and we'll provisioned house in a lovely part of Wales. Lots to do for all ages in the local vicinity - barge ride, visiting the aquaduct, walking, seeing Bala and the lake. For small children Bewilderwood isn't too far away and makes a great day trip. Great communication from the host. Would recommend this property.

Wonderful large property in a beautiful location in the Ceiriog valley. Suited our group wel, with a mix of couples, singles and a couple of kids. The view from the garden is amazing and a lovely spot to while away some time. There is, however, a lack of storage space for none perishable foods that caused us a few issues as we self cater for 10 people (just a few plastic drawers and a couple of shelves in the utility room). We also had to wash some of the cutlery as it wasn't clean. However, overall it is a great place and we would go back again.

We took this property as a common house my sisters, our children and I could meet up over the summer holidays for a week. But it became much more than that - we had a wonderful time created some great memories and all based around a place that felt like home away home but even better. Patrick was so helpful even when I didn’t follow the detailed help notes he gave to me. The wonderful staff at the near by hotel/pub/restaurant - The Hand. The house has a lovely garden and patio area set in the midst of beautiful scenery. I could go on…… but in simple terms a wonderful stay and I can highly recommend.

This property is all it says it is. Very large and very comfortable. It is very well stocked with everything you could possibly need for a family holiday in an excellent location in the picturesque hills and valleys of north Wales . Would definitely recommend for large family groups.

It is quite simply a wonderful house. Large and spacious with stunning views across the valley. Kitchen very well stocked, great games cupboard, two excellent pubs one minute walk away. Patrick was brilliant with communication. Kayaking on the lake, climbing Snowdon, visiting the waterfall, playing football in the garden- super holiday! Thank you to the lovely hosts!

St Garmons is a deceptively large house which catered for our party of 3 generations. The garden was great for the youngsters to play games in, and the views were gorgeous. Made even better by the regular sightings of red kites. The large windows and high ceilings gave the house a great sense of space, and the photos of the property don't do this justice! The whole house was well equipped and comfortable. There were many places to visit, despite the village being quite isolated. We enjoyed Chitk Castle, the Shropshire Sculpture Park, Oswestry Hill Fort and the aqueducts at Chitk and Trevor. It was always lovely to return to the tranquility of St Garmons! Mr Meier was quick to respond to any queries and we appreciated this. Hopefully we will return again as it was a gorgeous place to go on holiday!

We were a large family group between the ages of 6 weeks to 75 years old. The house has plenty of space to escape if needed and to have family meals. The rooms are lovely and spacious with most of the bedrooms having their own en-suites. The house was very comfortable and clean. Kitchen was fully equipped with everything you would need. We loved the garden and the smaller party members had a lovely time running around. The house is set in a small hamlet with two pubs within metres of the property. We had a drink in both and a lovely meal in the West Arms. We had lots of lovely day outs and the drive around this area is truly spectacularly. The high light for us was using the big table to catchup after a busy day and drink a glass or two of wine. The owner was lovely and friendly and made sure we had everything we need. We had lovely week, and felt very privileged to stay in such a beautiful house. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Summed up by one eight year old five minutes after we arrived. ‘I’m loving it already.’ Location is superb. Breathtaking views from the patio. Two great pubs on the doorstep: lots of things to do in locality; fishing at Cirk, viaducts, National Trust at Cirk Castle a must for anyone from 5 to 75! Six separate bathrooms- four en-suite and a superb utility room. Facilities excellent and generous provision of many everyday necessities: don’t pack any cleaning materials etc. All agreed one of the best family holidays we’ve had at a very reasonable price.

5.0 / 10.0

Sufficiently off-the-beaten-track to feel secluded from the fray of modern life, yet wonderfully cosseting with light, airy living spaces and comfortable, well-appointed bedrooms. The little ones loved seeing sheep through the fence at the end of the garden and a multitude of interesting birds (from sparrows to red kites) in the skies overhead, while the older ones appreciated the fast wifi and having space to relax. There are two first rate hostelries in the village—the West has a fine garden looking down the Ceiriog valley that is glorious on sunny afternoons, while the restaurant at the Hand serves truly excellent food; both less than 3 minutes' walk away. The property nestles beside the ancient St Garmon's church, whose churchyard contains some 1,000 year old Yew trees and from where you can head to the hills for some spectacular walks. Patrick, the owner, could not have been more charming and obliging. Everything was as promised and we (a family party of seven adults and two babies) had a marvellous week. Thank you.

Excellent renovation of an old rectory. Amazingly spacious, with room for 11 (3 generations) to be together or do things separately without disturbance. Very well equipped. Far from shops, but grocery delivery was the option we used. The best holiday accommodation we have used for our extended family.

The pictures do not do this beautiful house justice. It is extremely large inside, well equipped and has a real home from home feel. I book a house away every year for our family (4 generations) and this one did not disappoint. It has plenty of rooms if you want quiet time and great family rooms when you all want to get together. We loved all gathering for dinner in the dinning room with a great view out of the patio doors. Over size utility room and boot room which was very useful. The bedrooms are large with comfortable beds, nice bedding, towels and lots of wardrobe space, again fantastic view out of most of the windows. My mum (86years old) enjoyed sitting with a morning coffee just looking out the bedroom window. While the grounds are not so large the children (two 13 yr and two 10 yr olds) never got bored, running around with ball games, chase and hide and seek. The two pubs outside serve good food and my brother says the ale/beer is excellent There are plenty of activities out side of this lovely little village, driving there is not for the faint hearted though. The roads are narrow and if using a sat-nave it finds the most direct route (over the mountain tops). On saying that we did get used to the road to Llangollen (about 40min away) The children did paddle boarding there on the cannel, (£45 each for 3 hours) a bit expensive but they had a fantastic time. There are some lovely little shops, one shop had pottery painting which the children enjoyed. Barmouth is about 1hr 50min but again lovely day out, beautiful clean beach, small fair and plenty of shops. Oh yes fish and chips as well. Oswestry was about 40mins away but they have a great swimming pool and lovely shops. If you like water falls the Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall is stunning. The rest of the time we just chilled out in this beautiful house, the weather was wonderful and the views even better, what more could you want.
