Nestled in the scenic outskirts of Maerdy, near Corwen in North Wales, lies Hilltop, a contemporary lodge that comfortably accommodates up to four guests. This two-bedroom retreat is aptly named for its elevated position, which provides stunning views, perfect for enjoying from the bubbling hot tub or the private roof terrace. Hilltop is an ideal getaway for couples or families seeking a stylish experience amidst the natural beauty of North Wales, combining modern amenities with a tranquil setting.
The lodge features a well-equipped kitchen, complete with a dishwasher, allowing guests to prepare delicious meals that can be enjoyed in the cozy living/dining area or outdoors on the front patio. The roof terrace is particularly inviting for alfresco dining, where breathtaking vistas enhance the experience. After a day of exploration, guests can unwind in the wood-fired hot tub, toast marshmallows around the fire pit, or refresh in the outdoor shower. Evenings can be spent gathered on the corner sofa, enjoying a movie on the Smart TV before retreating to one of the two comfortable bedrooms: a king-size room and a bunk room, both designed for restful nights.
For those looking to explore the local area, a short drive leads to the welcoming Goat Inn, where visitors can sample local ales and enjoy hearty meals. The nearby town of Corwen offers a range of amenities, including the Rhug Estate Farm Shop, which features a farmers’ market, café, and takeaway service. Additionally, Corwen boasts a variety of pubs, restaurants, convenience stores, and bakeries, making it a convenient base for guests. The charming town of Llangollen is also within easy reach, where visitors can take a vintage steam train ride through the picturesque Dee Valley AONB, as well as explore historical sites like Plas Newydd and Castell Dinas Bran.
Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty of activities to enjoy, from sailing and kayaking on Bala Lake to indulging in a pampering session at Ruthin Castle’s spa or visiting the Ruthin Gaol Museum. Wrexham, with its excellent shopping options and wildlife-rich walks in Moss Valley Country Park, is another nearby attraction.
