Little house with a nice garden

The house is nice, even if the outside doesn't look exactly like on the picture (the outside gate is black and was broken). The owner are really nice. They brought us some adaptors for our electric devises and gave us advises (the indian take away is very good!). And it was also really nice, when we arrived, to have the house well prepared, flowers in the room and a bottle of wine, milk and cake in the fridge. To make it perfect, some improvement would be recommended (the bathroom for example is not very convenient).

This traditional quarryman’s cottage was the perfect setting for a relaxing break in North Wales.

The cottage is beautifully decorated and clean. The thoughtful touches such as vases of fresh flowers and a welcome pack of milk, bread, etc made it extra special. Our boys aged 12 & 14 nicknamed the cottage ‘The hobbit hole’ and insist it’s the best holiday home they’ve ever stayed in. The WiFi definitely added to their seal of approval. We loved that you can join the cycle track from the back garden and highly recommend cycling to the mountains. Some of the most breath taking scenery we’ve ever seen!

A wonderful cottage!!!

This place was magical for our family of six adults!! Though an older cottage, its authentic feel and warm, friendly atmosphere was exact what we were looking for in this beautiful town. We were greeted with fresh bread and eggs, butter and milk. Such a delight!! The location offered hiking options for our family as we explored the beauty of Snowdonia... Right out the back door and through the garden!!! We LOVED this place!!

Perfect accomodation for our Snowdownia Trip

I stayed at the cottage for 2 nights with friends for our activity weekend - climbing Snowdon and visiting Zipworld. It was ideal for us as we all had our own room. The location was great and Lynne had kindly left us a starter pack of bread/milk//butter etc. There were some lovely touches of restaurant recommendations, books, games and it felt really cosy with the open fire and fairy lights. I would definitely recommend this accommodation.
