Well Farm Waterside Retreat Reviews

James
Really friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere, will definitely return soon!
Sam
Absolutely loved our stay! The cabin is stunningand the peaceful setting made it easy to unwind. We really appreciated how quiet and relaxing it was. Definitely coming back soon, can't wait!
Lee
The lodge is cosy and tucked away in a stunning spot, with welcoming hosts and great on-site fishing fun.
Alex
We had an amazing stay here! The location is perfectand the hosts, Jenny and Ieuan, were super friendly and helpful. The cabin itself was cosy and well-maintainedand honestly, not having a TV was no problem at all - it actually added to the relaxing vibe. We loved using the hot tub every evening and grilling at the BBQ. Chester's just a short drive away, which is great for a quick night out. Definitely coming back soon, it was exactly what we needed!
Emma
The Shepard Hut was beautifully designed and super cosy. The host was really friendly and helpful. Loved the peaceful surroundings, it truly felt like we were miles away from everywhere!
Sarah W.
We really enjoyed our time at Waterside Retreat! The fishing was fantastic-caught carp, mirror carpand tench, which kept us busy. The hot tub was such a treat, especially with those gorgeous views of the fields. It's perfect for relaxing in the evening sun. Jenny and Iean made us feel so welcome. We'll definitely be returning soon. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway!
Michael
We stayed here recently and found the place pretty decent. The fridge wasn't cooling properly, which was a bit annoyingand the TV took ages to get fully tuned in. Storage space might be tight for ladies, but overall, it's a cool spot and worth giving a go. It's maybe a tad pricey, but that's just how things are these days. Still, we'd consider coming back!
Emma
Really warm family, super friendly and caring. Thomas the chicken farmer is lovelyand we enjoyed some fresh eggs during our stay! Great experience.
Alex
We had a lovely stay at this cosy spot on a big farm. The rooms are small but super comfyand the hot tub with good jets was a real highlight, especially on chilly March nights. The hosts were wonderful, making us feel welcome. Perfect base for exploring North Wales. Highly recommend for couples seeking peace and privacy!
Mark
We loved the location, perfect for exploring the areas we had in mind. Being dog-friendly was a big plus for us. The hut is brand newand we're sure it'll look even better as the gardens mature in spring and summer. Felt very secure with the electric gates on the owner's property. Underfloor heating was a real treatand the facilities were just right. Stayed three nights, which suited us perfectly. Jenny was super helpful throughout our stay. Will return!
Sam
We had a really nice stay in a lovely spot. The hosts were super friendly and quick to help with small issues. The place looked beautifully finished, though the tiny space could use a few tweaks. Sadly, the Wi-Fi and TV weren't available, despite being advertised, which was a bit of a let-down. We brought our dog, but it's probably better for just couples since it's not really dog-friendly. The fishing and hot tub were definite highlights, we'd come back for those!
