About Ty Bont

This delightful, four-bedroom detached, barn conversion sits in its own private grounds in a a secluded position on the edge of the hamlet of Erbistock, half a mile from the village of Overton and nine miles from the historic town of Llangollen. Boasting three acres of lawned gardens backing onto the River Dee, Ty Bont offers a rural escape for a family getaway to North Wales.

Upon arrival follow the driveway down to the off-road parking area before stepping into your new home-from-home. Discover the kitchen, where the house chef can cook up a storm with assistance from a range of appliances, whilst the dining area is where all congregate and enjoy mealtimes together.

A handy utility room provides a washing machine and tumble dryer, perfect for when your trails take off on a muddier route; adjacent to this is an external tap to wash down muddy dogs and mountain bikes. Move into the lounge with its beamed ceiling and French windows overlooking three acres of lawn, where you can relax beside the woodburning stove, play some cards or watch your favourite movie.

The real wow factor of this property is the three acres of gardens and mature trees together with a walled and cobbled courtyard, enclosed with a secure fence making it child and dog safe. Wander the expansive open lawns or spend the evening relaxing in the hot tub under the stars.

On those rainy days, take advantage of the games room and challenge the group to a game of pool, table tennis,football, darts and putting. The nearest pub/restaurant siting on the River Dee is about 300 metres away.

Less than a mile away in the pretty village of Overton there is a local butcher, baker, village shop, doctors surgery and pharmacy, coffee shop and gift shop. For a wider selection of amenities, head to Ruabon where there is an Aldi or Ellesmere where there is a Tesco.

Beautiful cottage fully equipped and clean.

We had a wonderful stay, the cottage was comfy and beautiful and very private, the hot tub was amazing, everything we needed for our mini break. We would definitely go back and recommend for others to visit.

Lovely house in a fantastic setting.

Ty Bont is a beautiful cottage with beautiful surroundings. The cottage was immaculate and very comfortable. We loved the log burner, games room and hot tub. We met Claire on the first day and she was very helpful. The Cross Foxes pub was lovely. Great food, staff very friendly and we joined in on one of their quiz nights. We loved the area and would definitely recommend Ty Bont and would love to return. Thank you. John, Julie, Harry, Jon, Georgia and the doggies Ethel and Ada.

Everything was amazing, Claire couldnt do enough to make sure we had a nice stay! Will definitely be returning again. Great location and the cottage was perfect for the size of our family.

We stayed at this cottage for a week and had a great time, the cottage has everything, comfortable beds and sofas, well equipped kitchen and games room and the hot tub was lovely, the area has lots to offer without having to travel too far, lunches in the local pub, which is walkable, are excellent with a lovely log fire in the bar, could not fault.

Stephanie

It is a lovely house, very clean and spacious. The grounds are really nice and the large hot tub was a big hit with everyone. It is in a good location as there are many popular towns and landmarks within a short driving distance. There is a pub within 5 minutes walking distance and the food is great and it is dog friendly. I would certainly recommend staying at Ty Bont and would like to thank the owners for making our stay very enjoyable.

Absolutely stunning place everything you needed was there for you

Lovely house. Grounds superb. We did find traffic noise intrusive on occasions. Wife found dishwasher did need repair as bottom tray wheels were damaged. Games room and hot tub firm favourites with the family. Many thanks for a very pleasant stay.

Beautiful cottage set in a fantastic location. Loved the hot tub and games room. The enclosed patio garden was great for the dog. Beds were very comfortable. The pub was just across the bridge and was well worth a visit.

Stephen

A fantastic property. The location is idyllic. The cross fox pub is a must

We had a great time at Ty Bont. One of the nicest properties we have stayed at so far.

Beautiful property. Clean and homely. Claire was an excellent host. Nothing was a problem for her

We had an amazing stay at Ty Bont. A beautiful setting. Claire our host was on hand to help with all queries and even brought me her own scales so I could bake in the fabulous kitchen. We all loved the hot tub and games room. Dogs had a great adventure. Fell in love with the area. The local pub is fantastic. We will return !!

This is the first large cottage my family have rented together & it was perfect for our needs. Claire answered my text questions promptly & accurately which was very useful. The cottage was safe, warm & welcoming at all times & luckily for us not a hint of doggie guests beforehand. The hot tub was used daily by the younger members of the family, unfortunately it was too cold at the time to make use of the excellent games room. The kitchen was large & well equipped, if a little cold at times, but as you move further into the beautiful cottage it gets warmer. We would definitely return to this fantastic cottage. Thank you Claire & Robin.

Loved it! Beautiful house

Jacqueline

Lovely place to stay. Very high standard of everything. Linen,Towels,Furnishings. Hot tub was so nice. A little cold in the kitchen area at times but it was January. Would certainly recommend for a private luxurious stay. Thank You.

Victoria

We were absolutely delighted with Ty Bont. We had a wonderful weekend and the house was immaculate and perfect. Thank you so much!!

Amanda

The perfect place for a family to meet up for a Christmas get away. The house was wonderfully welcoming & beautifully dressed for Christmas. The owners left treats..even Christmas crackers which were very thoughtful. Everything had be carefully thought about and we found everything we needed to settle straight in. Its a lovely spot which feels secluded & private but close to plenty of lovely pubs, walks & places to visit. We would definitely recommend & revisit. Thanks for having us!

Sophie

Absolutely fabulous stay here at Ty Bont. The cottage is beautiful, clean and spacious. With everything you could need and more! The hosts were welcoming, polite and knowledgeable on the area. The hot tub and games room were the perfect addition too. The extra little touches definitely made our stay feel more special, we can not wait to come back here again.

A lovely and well equipped property which was perfect for our family get away. Great location and plenty of room to relax

Damian

Stayed at the wonderful cottage 20th27th oct only just got the link to leave feedback so sorry its late. My family of 6 adults and our grandaughter had a great week at Ty bont . The rooms and decor high quality as was the bed linen . An abundance of towels with separated towels for hot tub

Joanne

We had a wonderful holiday break away from work in a cottage that felt like home as soon as you walk through the door. We could immediately relax and enjoy the surroundings. Our welcome from Claire was lovely and she could not be more helpful. Perfect for dog lovers and families with children Very happy we visited and have already recommended to family and friends if they are considering visiting the Wrexham area.

Sharon

As a group of adults and a small old westie we had a brilliant stay at Ty Bont. This beautiful cottage is tucked away from the busy Wrexham Road. A welcome package package of Prosecco, fruit cake, fresh milk along with tea, coffee and sugar were provided and thoroughly enjoyed by all.such a lovely welcome. The property is well equipped, tastefully presented and is very spacious for a family of 8. Two double bedrooms downstairs and two upstairs. One of the bedrooms upstairs has a 4 piece ensuite bathroom. There is one other bathroom upstairs and one downstairs wc. The lounge, dining room and kitchen flow well enabling family groups to socialise easily. The games room with dartboard, table football and pool table was particularly popular with the guys in our group as the games room also had a fridge to keep their beers in

Family of 8 so much space didnt feel on top of each other, the games room and hot tub was hit for all. Loved how the dogs had secured area. Host was polite, helpful and the little touches left by robin and claire definitely made us feel welcomed. We will definitely book again. Miss the barn already.

Kirsty

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Claire and Robin were absolutely lovely and very helpful if we had any questions. A great base to go and have some lovely days out and a great pub about 2 minute walk away. The house itself was beautiful. Plenty of space for 8 people and the games room and hot tub an added bonus which got lots of use. Would not hesitate to book again.

A great location for exploring Wales and the Welsh border. The barn conversion was beautiful and well equipped. The owners were extremely helpful, friendly and live on site in their home further down the lane. You could hear the traffic noise from the road when in the garden of the cottage, but road noise dropped in the evenings and at night. We would thoroughly recommend this barn conversion, and would certainly visit again.

We stayed at Ty Bont for a week as a family of 8 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everywhere was clean and tidy, the bed's were comfortable and the kitchendining room was the perfect size for everyone to sit together. The hot tub was amazing and we used it every night as was the games room. Our son who is blind absolutely loved the pool table, it's now his favourite thing to do. There was a second fridge in the games room which came in really handy as we had a large food shop delivered. The cottage was large enough for us to have some space of our own as we were a family of 4 generations with 3 dogs and it did get noisy at times

Had a great holiday , lovely owners and amazing accommodation , would highly recommend and we will be back

Carolyn

Fantastic property. In lovely surroundings. Immaculately kept and maintained. Owners friendly and helpful. Dog friendly walks from the door. And the local pubs are top notch. Really enjoyed our stay. Will look to return in the future.

Without doubt this is a great place to stay. The property is spacious, just had a week there with 6 adults and one child and never felt we were on top of each other. It is good location for heading out and seeing many attractions in the area. Robin and his wife are so welcoming, highly recommended.

What a lovely place. We all had a wonderful holiday in a great location, just what we needed. A big thanks to Claire and Robin for being such great hosts, with prosecco and cake ready for us on arrival. A special thanks to Robin for all the fly fishing help and advice, which led to wonderful days of fishing near by on the Dee, with stunning scenery. We hope to return in the future.

Had a fantastic 4 night stay, the house and gardens are lovely, great place to relax and enjoy some lovely dog walks or for those abit more energetic good mountain biking trails not too far away. We had gorgeous weather so were out and about each day, however I feel this could be a great winter location for a large family or 34 couples.

Suzanne

We had a lovely two weeks at Ty Bont, the welcoming cake, fizz and handwritten note was thoughtful and typical of Robin and Claires hosting skills . The place was spotless and the kitchen was huge with all utensils and crockery you would need. My son enjoyed using the hot tub and games room, relaxing on the big comfy sofas by the log burner with a glass of wine after a walk with the dogs was bliss. Thank you Robin and Claire you have a beautiful place

Had a lovely stay in this cottage with family over Easter weekend and will definitely be booking again. The hosts were great and the cottage was very spaciousspotless and some lovely little touches left from them. The facilities were great and everything you need to keep everyone occupied, the games room was fantastic with everything you need in it. After relaxing in the hot tub the fire in the lounge was lovely to sit around on the evening. There is also some lovely walks around the area. Would recommend anyone books this place.

Amazing! We take trips regularly and this was by far the best home we have have stayed in. Gorgeous cottage, everything was the best quality, a real home from home. The beds where so comfortable, we even checked where the sheets were from to go purchase them ourselves. We loved sitting around the fire after an evening in the hot tub. The cottage was fenced off so my small dog could wander and felt secure. 6 adults and two children stayed and there was plenty of space, the hot tub and games room where a real added bonus. We mentioned the trip was for my mums birthday and left was Prosecco, chocolate, flowers. There was also bread, tea and coffee. The area was fab, felt secluded and private but was within walking distance of a village and a lovely pub. Couldnt fault it, would love to come back. Thanks for having us!
