Rural Living in The Beautiful Vale of Llangollen
Panorama Cottages is a recently completed development at Dinbren Uchaf Farm. Redundant farm buildings have been converted to create self catering holiday cottages to a high standard (4 Star). Panorama Cottages comprise one 1 bed, one 2bed, one 3 bed cottage arranged in an "L" shaped configuration around a natural courtyard.
Panorama Cottages - The Environs
The cottages are only 1.5 miles from Llangollen and lie on the 'Panorama' which is a scenic road that follows the course of the historic Offa's Dyke'. Views from the cottage are unparalleled with the town of Llangollen to the south, horshoe Pass to the the west and DinasBran Castle to the east.
Within 5 minutes walk from the cottages up the Eglwyseg Escarpment behind, can be found Bonze Age burial barrows, a Celtic stone circle (mini stonehenge), limestone Kilns, lead mineshafts, and WOrld War 2 bomb craters. The escarpment itself is well used by the climbing fraternity due to difficulty in climbing the limestone cliffs.
Llangollen
Town
Llangollen itself is a popular tourist destination. It is easily accessible by road and is a perfect base for excursions to Snowdonia, Roman cities of Chester and Shrewsbury and the North Wales Coast and Anglesey.
Llangollen has its own steam railway, the abbey at Vale Crucis, Dinas Bran Castle, a myriad of arts and crafts shops, and a canal centre with horse drawn boats. There are also some fine eateries and restaurants to go to during summer evenings.
It is also host to the Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod in July
when musicians and dancers from all over the world congregate in Llangollen
to compete.
