Luxury Traditional Farmhouse In Rural Wales | Cilan
Located on the banks of the River Dee in Denbighshire, Cilan is the perfect dog friendly property for a large getaway with family and friends. This luxury traditional farmhouse in rural Wales dates back over 400 years, and has been beautifully renovated to provide all the modern comforts for a relaxing and comfortable stay. Surrounded by stunning countryside with river views, this five bedroom farmhouse sleeps ten people and sits on the small but stylish Rivercatcher complex of historic cottages and luxury log cabins.
A pathway leads to the front door of the handsome double fronted stone property which retains many of its original features. The sash windows finished in a sage colour are complemented by the glazed porch with matching colour scheme, surrounded by fragrant lavender. Stepping through the front door leads to a small hallway with stairs straight ahead and doors to both sides - one leading to a ground floor bedroom and the other into a TV Room. With two fabric sofas positioned in an L shape around a coffee table, a wall mounted Smart TV is mounted on the chimney breast, making this the perfect room to settle down and relax in the evenings after a day out exploring. A second door leads through to the property's open plan dining room, breakfast room and stunning kitchen.
The character of the property comes to life in the spacious dining room, with a slate tiled floor and chunky wooden ceiling beams. A solid wood dining table seating ten takes centre stage in this bright space, alongside a log burner for those colder evenings. Beyond the dining room, a breakfast room includes a secondary, smaller round dining table with wicker seated dining chairs, which is also a great breakout space for the younger members of the group. There is a small downstairs toilet just off the dining area with a small round table and 4 chairs.
This well equipped kitchen is ideal for guests wishing to cook up some hearty meals during their stay. With ample cupboard and counter space, the wooden kitchen units are finished in a shaker style with cream coloured doors and dark stone effect worktops. A white Belfast sink is positioned to one end, and a large range oven with hob is located centrally against the side wall. With a built in fridge freezer and dishwasher, the kitchen also includes a built in microwave and the staple kettle, toaster and coffee making equipment.
Completing the ground floor layout, a beautiful and bright lounge area is accessed via the dining room. This room, located in an extension to the property includes a glazed wall with French doors overlooking a spacious patio and garden. With natural light cascading in through the glazing, this lounge has the feel of a sun room or conservatory, with oak wood strip flooring, soft brown leather sofas and a cosy armchair tucked into the corner. A wonderful spot to sit in the evening, doors open, listened to the sounds of birdsong and the nearby river.
With five bedrooms in this luxury traditional farmhouse in rural Wales, one on the ground floor and the other four upstairs, there is versatility for different group types. All bedrooms feature an en-suite with either walk in shower or a bathtub with shower over, two of the bedrooms have a Super king sized bed, with the other two bedrooms having King sized bed with the option of converting three rooms into twin rooms if preferred. Whilst all large in size, the bedrooms all have their own unique character and colour palettes. All bedrooms are decorated with a modern finish, featuring grey divan beds with high fabric headboards. Throws and soft furnishings in different colour schemes provide a different feel to each room, and some include antique style furniture, while others have a mix of modern and traditional. All en-suite bathrooms have wood effect flooring, alongside modern fixtures and fittings providing a luxury experience for each and every guest.
The private garden and outdoor space of Cilan adds further charm to this unique property. Accessed via the lounge or kitchen, a large tiled patio features an outdoor dining table and chairs, alongside a number of rattan sunbeds. Summer evenings can be spent dining alfresco in this beautiful garden surrounded by trees, offering glimpses of the river and rolling hills of North East Wales. There's also a barbeque on hand to make the most of those summer evenings. This social space also features a large hot tub set aside from the patio, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing soak while taking in the surrounding scenery. This fully enclosed garden is also ideal for children and dogs, with a large lawn area.
