This large and handsome Victorian house puts you right in the thick of Llangollen life, a lively riverside town in Denbighshire. Steam trains pass through on the Llangollen Heritage Railway (150 metres), adding a bit of old-fashioned charm to your daily routine. This five-bedroom home is wonderful for a trip with friends and family, with cafes, pubs, shops and restaurants all within 0.5 miles for easy and convenient holidaying with your pet.
The house is arranged over four floors and brimming with Victorian character. Entry is on the ground floor, featuring a shower room with a walk-in shower and a practical utility area with direct access to the enclosed courtyard garden – ideal for towelling off muddy paws after riverside walks (there’s even a hose to facilitate this). On the first floor is an elegant bedroom with an emperor-size sleigh bed, alongside a standout family bathroom featuring both a walk-in shower and a free-standing Victorian-style bath. This level also includes a bright living room with wonderful river and railway views. The second floor houses two king-size bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, plus an additional contemporary shower room. Right at the top are a twin bedroom and a further king-size bedroom, both with Velux skylights, as well as a small office area. On-street parking is available, subject to availability, with a nearby car park close by.
Dog-walking opportunities abound nearby, with the River Dee running through the town and stunning scenery all around – you’ll be within the Clwydian Range & Dee Valley National Landscape, opening up excellent opportunities for rural exploration. Nearby, join the towpath (150 metres) and head along the Llangollen Canal towards Horseshoe Falls (2 miles) for a relaxed and dog-friendly route through this UNESCO World Heritage corridor. For a bit more effort, the climb up to Castell Dinas Brân (1 mile) rewards you with sweeping views over the town. Don’t miss a visit to the impressive Pontcysyllte Aqueduct (4 miles), built in 1805.
