We can guarantee one thing. Pentre Mawr’s guests will be extremely well looked after. Your hosts Bre and Graham Carrington-Sykes have a stellar reputation for their professionalism and hospitality. They are natural hosts - and the picture gets better, for both Graham and Bre are maestros in the kitchen.
This really epitomises the hands-on approach that is truly personal. The fine old building has been the family home for 400 years. It's full of family memorabilia, period furniture and fine antiques - you could say that it's a mini-stately home. But it's no fusty relic. Pentre Mawr was updated prior to its opening as a country house.
Nothing but the best has gone into bringing all contemporary comforts to a period setting. The fabulous bedrooms are swathed in fine fabrics (a Bre speciality) and come with grand, high-quality four-poster beds and superb bathrooms with freestanding claw-footed baths.
Pentre Mawr also springs a big surprise, South African-style. It's the first place in Britain to offer guests the choice of spacious canvas lodges that are the last word in comfort, with luxury bathrooms with underfloor heating, super king-size leather beds, spacious sitting areas, private terraces and hot tubs. They are located in the ground, where you’ll also find a walled garden with heated saltwater pool (a real suntrap in summer), and beyond, 190 acres of lush Vale of Clwyd countryside (with fishing rights).

Set alongside the beautiful Clwydian Range, Pentre Mawr is a haven of tranquillity with a strong appeal for couples or parties and makes an ideal venue for that special occasion. But do yourself a favour: don't book just for the one night.
