Ty’r Stocmon is a tempting cottage located in Chirk, Wales, nestled within the lush grounds of the historic Chirk Castle. This unique setting offers guests exclusive out-of-hours access to the castle grounds, allowing them to explore the award-winning gardens and extensive parkland right from their doorstep. The name "Ty’r Stocmon," meaning 'the home of the stockman' in Welsh, reflects its history as the residence of the estate's stockman, who tended to livestock on the property. The cottage has been recently renovated and accommodates up to four guests, making it an ideal retreat for small families or groups of friends.

The interior of Ty’r Stocmon features two comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom located upstairs, while the downstairs area includes a cozy sitting room with a log burner, perfect for warming up after outdoor adventures. The kitchen offers direct access to a spacious open patio and seating area, which is perfect for alfresco dining or relaxing after a day of exploring the rich history of the Welsh border region. Additionally, the cottage is pet-friendly, welcoming up to two dogs, making it a great choice for those traveling with pets.

Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to enjoy in the surrounding area, with numerous walking trails leading through the scenic Ceiriog Valley and along the impressive Offa’s Dyke. Guests can easily visit the medieval Chirk Castle and its beautiful gardens, as well as explore the 480 acres of parkland that feature wild ponies, sheep, and ancient trees. For those seeking more adventure, options like Segway tours are available, providing a fun way to experience the natural beauty of the region.

Chirk is conveniently located near several historic towns, including Llangollen, Oswestry, and Welshpool, each offering local shops and restaurants. Golf enthusiasts can also enjoy an 18-hole course nearby. A must-see attraction is the Chirk Aqueduct, known for its stunning views and impressive engineering. For those willing to venture further, the eastern fringes of Snowdonia National Park are less than an hour away by car, providing additional opportunities for exploration and adventure.

Moreover, guests staying at Ty’r Stocmon contribute to essential conservation efforts, as a portion of the holiday funds goes towards maintaining critically-eroded footpaths in the area. This commitment to preserving the natural landscape ensures that visitors can continue to enjoy the beauty of Chirk and its surroundings for years to come, making it not only a delightful getaway but also a responsible choice for eco-conscious travelers.
