The Little Gate House @ Gate House Holidays

The Little Gate House is our cosy wooden cottage which is one of two holiday lets on our residential property; we also have The Garden Nook; a unique shipping container conversion. This space offers tranquil getaway with adventure on your doorstep. Perfect for those wanting to retreat to the North Wales countryside, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. For the more adventurous: picturesque walks, hikes, trail-biking/running, fishing, and well known tourist towns all minutes away.

The Little Gate House is comfortably set up for 2 adults but can accomodate up to 4 guests with the sofa bed in the living area. There is also space for a travel cot in the main bedroom. We do like to point out that the sofa bed may make the space feel cramped so please consider this when booking; we wish for all of our guests to have a comfortable stay.

A complimentary welcome hamper is included in your stay with essentials such as milk, bread, etc. We offer a hamper upgrade to include tasty snacks and a bottle of bubbles, more info can be sent once booking is confirmed.

The Little Gate House is situated on the driveway of our family home. It includes an enclosed private patio but we also welcome guests to share our large garden at the rear of the property. Parking is next to the property with personalised lock box code for a discreet check in.

Reasons we think you’ll love this property:
- Cosy yet spacious style.
- In the heart of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with picturesque walks on your doorstep.
- A short drive takes you to Snowdonia National Park where the Welsh landscape really shows off.
- It may be our residential home but we fully respect your privacy and will leave you to enjoy your stay.
- Access to our garden which is perfect to stretch your legs or let your furbabies have some zoomies.
- On a clear night, we HIGHLY recommend stepping outside and looking up. The night sky here is phenomenal with the moon and stars shining so brightly.
- We’re located on a main bus route between Denbigh and Wrexham with a stop right outside our house.

Reasons this property might not be for you:
- You don’t ever want to see your hosts. With a designated parking space, enclosed patio, blinds and curtains you should have all the privacy you need. However, with it being our residential home and another holiday let on site we can’t guarantee you exclusivity.
- Our sincere apologies to those couch dwelling pups, we have a ‘no pets on furniture’ rule to respect other guests that don’t have furry friends.
- We are located on a main through road so you may experience some road noise.
- We are in the final stages of landscaping part of the property, our grass is springing back to life, that luscious green feels only weeks away.

An amenity not listed is the option to hire our cold plunge/ice bath. Our Lumi® ice bath pod is available for hire (£10 for one day, £5 for subsequent days). Please contact us in advance for more details.
