Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Ruabon

On the outskirts of the village, within walking distance of your holiday cottage in Ruabon, Offa’s Dyke is a massive earthwork that follows the border between England and Wales. Ancient woods, winding rivers and magnificent historical sites can all be discovered within a stone’s throw of Ruabon. This pretty village is located in the county borough of Wrexham, roughly halfway between Wrexham and Llangollen. It is an ancient Welsh community known for its historic landmarks, including the Gardden, an ancient hillfort dating back to the Iron Age. To the south of the village, Wynnstay is an opulent country house with beautiful gardens. Ruabon has a rich history as a centre for the iron, clay and coal industries and the region. The village is small enough to be explored on foot, with family-run shops and a handful of good places to eat and drink. The Bridge End Inn is a local favourite, with good food and local ales.  

An outdoor swimming pool and terrace with a sun-lounger swing are overlooked by a garden and cottage.
