Christine

Hello!
Welcome to our beautiful two bedroom semi detached by the Llangollen canal. A warm and welcoming house, with a homely feel. Our two lovely ginger toms (Llewellyn and Idris) are brothers and were kittens when we moved here. They come and go during the day through the open bathroom window, and they love a fuss and a conversation and two square meals. We are located just outside of the beautiful tourist town Llangollen, a lovely walk along the canal outside our house will take you there in approx 1 hour or driving in 5 minutes.

We love our huge south facing garden and you are more than welcome to use our smoker barrel BBQ, which we do often.

We are fortunate to live in a beautiful location for walking including being near Snowdonia national park which is approx 1 hour drive away.

We generally always take our two jack russells with us on our holidays where possible.

We love it here, Llangollen has a lot of lovely pubs, restaurant's and some live music at weekends. For the outdoor activity type you are spoilt for choice with white water rafting, and other pursuits.

Llangollen hosts the Eisteddfod music festival, food festivals, fringe music gigs and monthly comedy in the town hall. It has wine bars and lovely walks along the river.

Chris and Sam were absolutely lovely to house sit for. Chris was extremely friendly over the phone and left the house clean and full of flowers for my arrival. Their ginger toms are the sweetest dears, coming in and out to have cuddles throughout the day. And the leopard gecko was quiet but a lovely presence. The surrounding area was beautiful with a lovely walk along the canal and different places to see nearby. I would definitely love to house sit for them again.

Idris & Llewellyn are absolute sweethearts, they were such a joy. I loved all the cosy cuddles. Their home is in a beautiful part of Wales with breathtaking walks right on the doorstep. Christine was great to deal with during setup, and Sam, her partner, was helpful during the sit. There were date/time changes and then Sam was unfortunately unwell which led to some last min uncertainty - but the sit went ahead in the end. Some small things could have been better: the house wasn’t as ... MORE

Hi Lyssa, lovely to hear you had a good time with the boys and enjoying the local area. Yes, Sam has been very ill over this Xmas period and as you said he was unsure the sit was going to go ahead at all until last minute. As I am already in Australia - I'm glad you were both able to have your ... MORE
Loved my time with Llewellyn and Idris......both of them really sweet and loving, so I got lots of lap time! Communication with Chris and Sam really good and I was very comfortable there.
