Abbey Grange Hotel

I had read the reviews before booking and took on board what they had said, however I must say I was pleasantly surprised...yes the room could have done with a little fettle, peeling paint, grubby skirting boards BUT a no nonsense hotel with staff that were so friendly and could not do enough for you. I felt very at home. The location is amazing, and the meals were scrumptious, breakfast was plentiful. I would recommend staying here as long as you are aware of the negatives. I stayed in the four poster room which had beautiful views across the valley, I would definitely stay again without a doubt and will book next time I'm this way on. Of course I was blessed with sunshine which always helps!

This place could be beautiful, but it is very old and tired, lots of flies inside, and months of dust in the rooms. Very low water pressure. Why is the heating on 100degrees,then a large fan on, what a waste of money. Wonderful veiws, decent breakfast, clean white sheets. Yes I, would stay again as the walk to Llangollen is beautiful.

This place has absolutely shocking facilities, no toilet roll, 1 shower working the rest are broken rubbish everywhere in the showers nobody cleans them, the bin area would be loved by RATS rubbish everywhere.

My daughter and I spent two wonderful days at the Abbey Grange Hotel. The food is amazing being raised on their own farm to very high welfare standards. The vegetables and salad are also home grown. The grounds are immaculately kept with amazing floral displays. The hotel is dog friendly which is important to us. Yes, the room was dated but very much benefited from being so. It was a pleasure to sleep between crisp, white linen sheets, an eiderdown and a bedcover. The view was amazing. The staff, we met Llinos,Beth and Steve the landlord were all very friendly. Steve makes the very best breakfasts in the world! We brought some beer home from their on-site brewery. I would give this hotel ten stars if I could.

Quite possibly the worst meal we've ever eaten. My partner could not eat half a meal let alone all of it. It was laced with that much salt it was hot. I like mix grills but not from here. I didn't like it because the meat was like shoe leather. My pint tasted of vinegar. I could only take one sip of it before realising something was very much wrong with it . But the bar maid said another bloke had drank a gallon of the stuff. He was nowhere to be seen. I assume he was being sick in the toilet. I cannot recommend avoiding this place enough. Simply Dreadful.

We stayed over the bank holiday weekend. Yes the facilities are not as one would expect but that is mainly due to the people staying on the site. Toilet rolls were stolen and no consideration of those using the facilities after them. The site is full of scousers the ones we came across were vile. The language is horrendous, if I counted the number of F-bombs dropped I would be a millionaire, they do not know any other word maybe they could be gifted a dictionary to broaden their vocabulary. On Sunday evening the music was blaring and when confronted by the hotel staff member (female) they had the audacity to back chat at her over the state of the facilities, if they didn't like it why not leave instead of bringing it up when intoxicated. I actually spoke with the lady on the way back from the toilet and she stated that she had spoken to them and she felt intimidated, this lady is only doing her job. They were over the age of 40 not young adults but their attitude was that of a child obviously their mental age. My husband saw the interaction and their response to the music levels being reduced was well we have paid £130 to be here, so has everyone else you selfish delinquents. This review is more of the people staying on the site than the camp site itself. I would certainly not invest in better facilities knowing full well that this kind of demographic would not look after them. I feel sorry for the owners they try their best but are fighting a losing battle with this type of clientele, unfortunately they are not going to ban this type of people. But maybe future customers can bear in mind that everyone has paid to be on the site, be considerate and not a nuisance to fellow campers and staff members and if you can't then stay at home and everyone will be happy!!! To the scousers who said they would never return good luck in finding a campsite that would put up with your behaviour as most would throw you off after the first night - scum bags

Let’s start with the positives….. there must be something positive to say…. It’s a 2 mile walk into Llangollen village, which once you are on to the canal path is a lovely walk. Also it was cheap - around £85 for three nights over the bank holiday. Now onto the negatives. Our experience at this campsite was disappointing. The pitch we were on backed on to a noisy road, disturbing the children’s sleep. The clientele were also extremely loud. With music blasting into the night. Whilst when you check in they give a strict no noise policy, this is not enforced. The facilities were absolutely disgusting, and in need of maintenance - the bathrooms were unclean, it was more hygienic not to wash for three days than use the filthy showers on site. The field and park area were full of litter, not once did I see any staff attempting to keep on top of this and clean up. Although even if they did bother to clean the bins were vile and overflowing. Whilst I appreciate it was a bank holiday, there should be more bins provided for the volume of people on site instead of letting it pile up and be strewn across the floor. We camp regularly and booked this last minute so wasn’t expecting 5 * luxury, but wow, a bit of bleach and some toilet roll isn’t exactly too much to ask. I would say avoid this campsite if you can!

Camping trip. We booked the campsite on-line. The pictures are all taken with the main field as the setting. The reality for my family, along with two other families we where placed in the smaller back field. Interestingly the main field was empty. Honestly avoid this place! It's not even cheap, bur it attracts people who play loud music gone midnight and use horrible language against thier children.

Unfriendly staff. Waited half an hour for a cup of tea and breakfast. Booked for 8.30 but it arrived at 9am! Only one staff member on site. No apologies for the lateness of breakfast! Making us late for work meeting. Would not stay again! Avoid.
