Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in St Asaph

This compact city lies on the banks of the River Elwy in Denbighshire, a few miles inland from Wales' rugged north coast. It is surrounded by stunning countryside with far-reaching views across the Vale of Clwyd. Surrounded by rolling countryside with views across the Vale of Clwyd, it occupies a unique position close to some of the region's prettiest coastal towns and beaches. St Asaph Cathedral is perhaps the city's most popular attraction. It dates from the 13th century and is often claimed to be the smallest Anglican cathedral in Britain.

The city centre will be a stroll away from your holiday cottage in St Asaph. In the heart of this bustling community, St Asaph Cathedral dates back to the 13th century and is said to be the UK's smallest ancient cathedral, 182ft long and 68ft wide. The city's narrow streets are home to various family-run businesses, including excellent cafes like Jacob's Ladder. Pop into Tweedmill Farm Shop for the freshest local produce, or head to the Plough for a pint of local ale. Several scenic footpaths pass through the city and into the surrounding countryside. One of the prettiest is undoubtedly the Poacher's Trail, which begins at the bowling green before meandering along the riverbank, with the chance to spot kingfishers and otters.
