About the Owner
About Paula Roberts
David and I are lucky enough to own two lovely homes in the UK and another in Croatia.
After a successful career in business David now works for a major UK children's charity.
We have both grown up in North Wales and have raised our four children here. We are currently living in our other home in the UK which is only half a mile away in the beautiful village of Llanasa.
As such we are on hand to give any help and guidance but far enough away to give you total privacy!
Paula Roberts purchased this cottage in 2011
Why Paula Roberts chose Flintshire
I have always been in love with this house. We bought our current house 14 years ago which was David's dream property - a small Georgian manor house in the centre of the village of Llanasa.
However, on our walks we would pass Holly House and I would always remark that was my dream house. After 11 years of making the same comment almost every week it came on the market and we bought it.
It needed total restoration including a new thatch. The build took nearly a year and we're delighted with how it has turned out.
We lived at Holly House for two years but David wanted to live in our other house for a bit so I'm happy to let other people enjoy Holly House until I can persuade David to move back!
What makes this cottage unique
Holly House has some of the most breath taking views imaginable. It is situated at a height of 660 feet above sea levels and has uninterrupted views over rolling countryside to the sea. The Wirral and Liverpool are clearly visible, as it the coastline of England. On a clear day you can even see Blackpool Tower.
The house is quiet and tranquil set in 3 1/2 acres of grounds. There are wonderful walks and you can join a public footpath through a gate at the bottom of the garden.
Despite its rural location you are only a half a mile walk to the award winning village of Llanasa with it's quiet country pub.
The popular market town of Prestatyn is only 4 miles away, the beach at Talacre 3.5 miles away, Chester and Llandudno are 30 minutes by road or rail from Prestatyn station.

Wow! Fantastic place!
We had a fantastic stay for my hen party. The property is very clean and well maintained and was just perfect for our party of 12 girls. The owners were very accommodating and friendly and made us feel very welcome. The views are stunning and I would recommend to both families and groups of friends. A lovely place in the country and not too far from Chester.
Fantastic weekend away in a beautiful house!
The house was stunning! Very clean, modern and perfectly located. The owners had left the property in pristine condition and you certainly can't fault the view of the sea. Thank you for a lovely setting for a fantastic hen party! Elaine
A fabulous house = a fabulous weekend
I booked Holly House for my Mom's hen weekend and it was the perfect choice. From the very beginning, Paula was incredibly helpful; providing detailed information regarding the location and surrounding areas as well as the house itself. No email or question was too much trouble for her and her responses were always very swift. When we arrived at the house, it lived up to the pictures and much much more. You get the WOW factor as soon as you pull on to the drive and the excitement doesn't end there. The views are amazing and can be seen from every part of the house. There were 12 of us staying in the house and not once did it feel crowded. We spent most of the time in the conservatory which has comfortable sofas and incredible views. The décor is luxurious and the house was clean and very well maintained. The whole group had a fantastic time. I wouldn't hesitate to book another holiday at this magnificent house.
girly weekend
We were lucky enough to stay this weekend in this fantastic place. Where do I start? Fabulous views. Spotless house. Beautiful surroundings. Lovely couple who were happy to help. The list goes on. Could not fault it in any way. We will most definitely be returning!
