About Pentre Hall

Pentre Hall is a grand three-storey country house in Shropshire, sitting near the Welsh border.

Pentre Hall Reviews

Wow. What an absolutely beautiful cottage to stay in. Cottage is absolutely fab location, so well equipped, spotless, cosy and a hottub thrown in! We love a cottage that you can walk or cycle from the door and this cottage had it all. Country walks with Offas Dyke on its doorstep, river walks, canals, aqueducts etc. Lovely pubs to walk to like The Docks and we drove over to the Swan which was lovely and cosy. Chirk Castle is a lovely walk from the cottage and thats a gorgeous day out. When we saw it was a linked cottage to the owners home we did hesitate as we are never sure about that arrangement. Do not let that put you off, you are very separate and the owners could not have been more accommodating and welcoming, even giving us a lift back from the local pub after our long walk one evening. Beautiful, 5 stars for everything!

Thank you so much to James and family for a wonderful stay at Pentre Hall. The house is perfect for a large family gathering and we really appreciated all the advice with walks and enjoyed the history of the hall. The hot tub was very popular too! We will definitely be back again as it's a great location and great house.

We had the most beautiful weekend staying at this wonderful cottage. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a lovely welcome package that made us feel instantly at home. The cottage had everything you need and more, and it even provided lots of information on where things are, making our stay effortless. The setting itself was absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and full of character. The hosts were incredibly informative, welcoming, and truly attentive, which made our stay even more special. It was the perfect escape, and wed love to come back. Thank you so much for such a fantastic stay!

Melanie

We all had such a wonderful stay at Pentre Hall. There is nothing at all to fault about this beautiful property, it's grounds and facilities. This is an old building, full of character and history but yet it has everything you will need to make your stay perfect. That said, about it's age, it was spotlessly clean even in places you'd expect to see a bit of dust. The kitchen is modern and really well stocked the best selection of every glass you'll need, the bedrooms are gorgeously decorated with such comfortable beds and bed linen. We really enjoyed the wood fired hot tub too. Great location near to Chrik and Llangolen, with some great eateries nearby. We tackeld the 4 hour walk taking in the aqueductviaduct, tunnels and Chirk Castle ask James for walk maps, visited nearby Blue Planet Aqarium and also Llangolen, which was plenty to do in our 4 days there. Overall a 1010 from us and I'm sure we will return. Thank you James for being such a welcoming and informative host and for allowing us to share your lovely and very interesting family home x

We have stayed in many houses in the past as a family of 10 and this one is now our favourite. Fabulous place to stay, equipped excellently and extremely clean and comfortable and what a generous welcome pack. Great hosts, nothing seems to be too much trouble and very knowledgeable of the area. Lots of walks on the doorstep or a short drive away. We will definitely be returning in the future.

An excellent stay in a beautiful property. Stunning views and extremely helpful hosts. Thank you

Louise

This is a special place. My family, spanning three generations, and I spent a week over New Year in comfort and style loving every minute. Our host, James, could not have been more helpful or kind, pointing us in the right direction for several local walks from the house, providing all the supplies we needed for the hot tub and wood burners and making sure we were comfortable. The house is full of character and charm being beautifully maintained and furnished. We all appreciated the extremely comfortable beds, linen and large soft towels. It was warm and cosy with a homely feel. The kitchen was a pleasure to use with high quality and ample equipment. Set in a tranquil, rural location yet with easily accessible amenities and activities, there was something for everyone. Indeed we plan to return to see more. I cannot recommend a stay in Pentre Hall enough. Thank you James.

Christmas stay 2024 This is the most perfect place for friends and family to gather to celebrate Christmas. The property is amazing and steeped in history the owner James is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of the property. The property is extremely well appointed with everything you could possibly need and when decorated for Christmas is truly magical. The hot tub is fantastic for relaxation and the views from the garden are spectacular Plenty of walks and attractions nearby. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this property. Even our dog had great fun on the local walks and was catered for with doggy treats!

Beautiful house located in a stunning part of England. It was extremely comfortable, very well appointed and the owner James was very welcoming and helpful. We followed their advice about booking a pub for Sunday Lunch and had an excellent meal at The Docks at Selattyn too. Cant fault this one in any way! Thank you so much.

From the moment of booking, James provided us with lots if information re places to visit and places to eat along with some history of this beautiful house. On arrival we were made to feel welcome by Helen. A hamper of goodies awaited us and every small detail was catered for. Hot tub was ready for use, towels were provided along with doggy towels, tissues in every room, torches in case of a power cut and ample toilet rolls and hand soap. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. We loved learning about the history of the house and the area and we highly recommend this property and would definitely book again. Thank you James and Helen for letting us use your beautiful home.

A hidden gem. We had a wonderful family weekend at Pentre Hall, it was a perfect base for our time in Shropshire. Beautiful setting, intriguing and handsome historic house with all modern facilities. Everything we could have wished for including a generous welcome pack. James was incredibly informative and helpful both before and during our stay. His local knowledge certainly enhanced our visit. Have already recommended Pentre Hall to family and friends.

Brogan

We were looking for a long weekend, something close to nature, walks and activities. Somewhere we could all go together as a family and friends, which included 2 pet dogs, a puppy guide dog, a toddler and adults. Somewhere we could host a murder mystery dinner party. But somewhere we would each have our own space without feeling on top of eachother. We found all of this and more at Pentre Hall Bronygarth! James & Helen are fantastic hosts. They have thought of all the fine details within the property and in the gardens too. Their communication before and during the stay was brilliant and they were more than happy to assist us with anything we needed. Each bedroom was spacious, each of our guests had their own bedroom with an en suite shower room and the 2 King Size rooms shared the family bathroom. There is a downstairs toilet. Log burning fires. 2 lounge areas and a huge dining area. Outside there is lots of space for the dogs to run around. Plus a gorgeous wood burning hot tub. Some of my favourite and unexpected details Tissue box in each room Separate towels for hot tub. Blankets towels for dogs. Essentials in the bathroom. Lots of games and books. Badminton net and rackets outside. Lovely welcome hamper. Washing up and laundry essentials Ample toilet rolls. Fully equipped kitchen with super fast oven. I would recommend this stay to any type of family as it has something to suit everyone's needs and interests.

Patricia

My friends and l had a lovely time in the house and the surrounding area great place to eat and place of interest to visit.

Neil S

Absolutely beautiful location with an amazing country home feel, if you are looking for a real English country get away, Pentre Hall delivers beyond expectations. Ownerhosts very detail oriented and attentive. If I could, I would add extra stars. Our week stay was the highlight of a month long tour through the UK. The history of the the house and the area add volumes. Cannot wait to return again on our next visit

Charlotte

Pentre Hall was a fantastic place to stay. It's even better than it looks in the photos, spotlessly clean, incredibly well equipped and the grounds were beautiful. The spcial space and ammenties made it an excellent house to stay in with some friends for the weekend. James was also a really lovely and knowledgeable host. Thank you for having us!

Maggie

We stayed at Pentre Hall for a long weekend in May 2024. It was a great place to relax and enjoy our short break. There were fantastic views across the countryside, inside the property was well equipped and was a knife sharpener away from perfect. The refurbishment of the property was to an excellent standard and maintained all its period features. The owner, James, gave us a great introduction to the property and its history, and also the best places to visit within walking distance and further afield. We would definitely stay here again. Maggie and Peter

This has to be one of the nicest homes I have stayed in. Rich in history, situated on a beautiful valley with fantastic views and stunningly quiet except for birdsong. James and Helen have created a superb residence for a family holiday or in our case an excellent venue for a friends reunion. The house and furnishings are all top end and every item one could think of is supplied. Great well equipped and functional kitchen is at the heart of the house with large dining room and sitting room. The bedrooms are all very special including the rooms and further sitting room cinema size tv in the eaves of the house. Off road parking and extensive gardens including a log fired hot tub add to the overall excellence of the property. James is very helpful in offering advice on the myriad activities in the area plus pointing you in the right direction for eating out locally.

Stunning I think this was one of the nicest places I have ever stayed. The property was spotlessly clean & had everything you could possibly want to make your stay comfortable. The hot tub was a delight. The views from the hot tub meant we never wanted to get out! It was just a beautiful place to stay, we felt so welcome & we will definitely book again soon. I cannot recommend this place enough. An absolute hidden gem.

Amazing hosts and a fantastic, very grand venue. The welcome pack was amazing and came with a detailed information pack for the area that really helped us during our stay. The hot tub and out house is faultless, and the huge dining table was a joy to get everyone round for meals. The hosts are very friendly and can't do enough for you. Highly recommended.

Elaine

Pentre Hall is one of the loveliest places we have stayed. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The outside area is beautiful and the owners made us very welcome. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Claire

Superb accommodation and a very well equipped. We have stayed in many self catering properties over the years and Pentre Hall was a firm family favourite. The hot tub was an added luxury and owners very approachable. A good area to access a variety of places to visit. We had a wonderful week and would love to return again in the future.

Elaine

We would highly recommend Pentre Hall, 7 of us have just returned from a 3 night stay and I honestly cant think of anything that the lovely owners hadnt thought of. James met us at the property and was extremely helpful regarding the local area. The property is stunning inside and out and has been decorated and furnished to high standard. We would definitely return.

Amazing from start to finish. Never ever write reviews but in this case I just cant not. Every finer detail taken care of, will definitely be booking again and already recommended to family, friends and work colleagues.
