The property has been consistently described as immaculately clean, indicating a high standard of cleanliness maintained throughout.
The central location is highly praised for its convenience to local walks, pubs, and eateries, making it an ideal spot for guests.
The property is generally found to be comfortable, though tall guests may need to mind their heads due to low door frames, and some may find the shower entrance narrow.
The property is well-furnished and equipped, including a coffee machine and Netflix. However, the mention of narrow stairs and a small bathroom slightly impacts this score.
While guests have appreciated the coffee pods and the inclusion of Netflix, there is no mention of gifts, so it cannot be determined if thoughtfulness in the form of gifts is a consistent practice.

The only small issues was the gap in the shower panel was small, which could be an issue if you or any of your party are on the larger side. Centrally located in Llangollen close to lots of places to eat and drink , though if you wish to cook at Teulu, the kitchen has everything you need. Our dog struggled with the stairs to the kitchen, so had to stay in the living room.

The 4 floors of the property certainly kept us fit and we enjoyed many board games sat at the big kitchen table in the basement.

Highly recommended. The house had everything we needed for our stay. Coffee pods for the machine were a nice touch and very appreciated. Netflix included on the TV kept the kids happy after long days out. As a tall person (6'3") I do have to warn anyone else tall that you are guaranteed to bang your head. Several door frames are well below regular height, and you will need to duck in most of the kitchen. It's not a bad mark on the house or the owner, as it's just because of the age of the house, but I did hit my head several times so keep that in mind. Everyone else who was <6-foot was perfectly fine though.
