Our logo -  A swallow

On the last few miles of your journey to Gwenoldy you will probably have sped into Wales on the A55 Expressway, turning off to travel through the delightful small town of Caerwys and the pretty Wheeler valley, passing an 18th century water powered paper mill, now a craft and antique centre. Next, crossed a bridge over the route of the sadly long deceased country railway branch line and started to follow a twisting lane constantly climbing towards the uppermost ridges of the Clwydian hills.

Spotting our Swallow logo you will have turned onto the track leading past farm buildings before seeing the Swallow again on the entrance to the property. Turning the last corner presents both Coed y Mynydd Isaf farmhouse and your holiday home of Gwenoldy set against the simply stunning view of the Clwydians.

The view that greets you on arrival and every morning from your front door

Gwenoldy - in English ‘Swallows’ Rest’ or ‘House’ - is a two bedroomed cottage, lovingly converted from an 18th century stone barn situated beside the 16th century farmhouse of Coed y Mynydd Isaf.


Swallows nest in the Grade II listed farm building opposite the cottage and gather in the skies above in the autumn before migrating for the winter.
