Samantha
We absolutely loved our stay away in the retreat, Id absolutely recommend to anyone considering it!
Would be nice if we could have 2 towels each or a robe one for the hottub and one for the shower if possible! Potentially a smart TV but not essential! Lovely stay, nice and private and cosy
Shelby
Gorgeous little stay, a perfect couples weekend away!
The holiday was absolutely perfect. The only downside was television being unable to connect to streaming services and lacking a HDMI to connect our laptop or firestick.
Aleesha
Lovely place to stay and the hot tub was great.
Claire
We had a lovely weekend, the property had everything we needed, great quiet location, very relaxing, owners were nice and helpful if we needed anything they were just a phone call away.
Steven
We absolutely loved our stay at The Retreat. The accommodation was modern, clean, and cosy. The location was quiet and secluded which was ideal for relaxing expecially with the wonderful hot tub outside. The bed was so comfortable it was like being in a 5 star hotel. The shower was perfect after a day walking and exploring the countryside. We thought the bread, milk and the little jar of dog treats were a thoughful little touch. The electric fire soon warmed up and made the room cosy and warm. Locally the village of Bangor on Dee is a short walk away which has a village shop and 2 pubs The Buck and The Royal Oak We visited both pubs during our stay but it is worth mentioning that The Buck does not serve food on Mondays or Tuesdays and The Royal Oak doesnt open at all on Mondays or Tuesdays. Both pubs are very welcominging and dog friendly. Overall we had a fantastic time at The Retreat and we would definately recommend a stay here. Would we return?....absolutely and we will be booking again sometime soon.
