Our stay was anazing, beautiful location, lovely hosts , and and overall great place to stay . Very peaceful, relaxing and tranquel location , we will definatly be very returning very soon.
We had a lovely stay in this very cosy cottage. We only stayed one night as part of our cycle trip but could have stayed longer! It was very clean and comfortable with a lovely fire which we needed. The bed and shower are great and the whole place is very peaceful.
We had a brief stay at this very comfortable cottage set in the most beautiful surroundings. Peter and Kerry were so helpful with all recommendations and advice. We had a warm welcome from Peter who told us about the cottage and then managed a beautiful evening walk around the most gorgeous garden. Thank you Kerry and Peter for having us

Tranquil country cottage
Excellent accommodation. It is self catering - meaning not even tea or coffee provided!!! This was unclear when we booked. So had to drive into Betws y Coed to find food after a long trip. Also the host’s directions to find the place were very unclear. An extremely hard to find turn off from the A470. Especially in the dark when in heavy rain!!!!
Ideal location for getting away from everything. Quite isolated and up a long steep bumpy road but a great place to feel like you have escaped the rat race. The owners live next door but as the main door does not face their property I barely saw or heard them. They were very accommodating on the few occasions that I bumped into them. I slept better than I have in years. The place was spotlessly clean. My only tiny niggle is that it was the hottest week of the year when I was there so I didn't light the fire, which meant I didn't have hot water. It would have been nice to have hot water but it didn't stop me having a wonderful week in this beautiful part of Eryri.

Sorry about the confusion with the hot water, it's heated by both electric and the woodburner. We have it set to heat up twice a day. Possibly the previous guest turned off the switch when they left and we didn't notice! It's a shame you didn't tell us there was no hot water at the time.
Overall this is a very pleasant place in beautiful surroundings, but the location is not for the faint hearted. Situated up a very narrow lane with few passing places, best to take it slowly!
Our main criticism is that there were no basic provisions eg milk, tea bags, coffee etc. Having travelled 5 hours to get there, we had to go straight out to buy essentials.
We appreciate that there was no suggestion that anything would be provided but as it is a fairly remote location some basic supplies would have appreciated!
We spent a lovely peaceful week at the cottage and thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet. It is a well furnished, very comfortable cottage with a lovely modern shower.
Location is splendid, even though the approach road/ lane is very narrow. Luckily we didn't meet another car on any of our journeys out or coming back.
Kerry and Peter were great hosts and always helpful if you needed anything (thanks for the use of the washing machine ).
Would love to visit again.
Kerry and her partner were very welcoming and helpful. We had a delightful time at their property and highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get away to this part of the world. Truly unique and refreshing! 😊

Stay in wales
The cottage is lovely, and surrounded by a beautiful garden. We found the single track road to get there rather daunting, and we’re constantly worried about meeting a car coming the other way. This only happened on our last day!
Had 3 nights in this lovely cottage. Arrived in bad weather but fire was lit and ready for our arrival. Very clean and comfortable. Hosts were polite, friendly and accommodating.
Beautifully situated cottage in landscaped grounds
Beautifully situated cottage in grounds of a big house, landscaped with lovely shrubs and trees, with big views of mountains and a breathtaking situation high on the valley edge. Very quiet and away from it all.
The cottage is comfortable and everything works nicely. We appreciated the good shower. We really enjoyed having the big window by the dining table looking out onto the gardens. We were also fortunate with the weather to use the patio table to eat outside.
Kerry and Peter are helpful, friendly and accommodating, and they made us very welcome.
It is a good base for mountainbiking with Sarn Helen and Penmachno trails very close by.
A great place to get away from it all, as long as you don't mind living without wifi. The extensive garden is amazing - lots of corners to explore. There is easy access to all you need in Snowdonia, including walks direct from the property, and the train to Llandudno and Blaenau Festiniog via the small Pont-y-Pant station half a mile or so away.
So, so pleased we chose this property. Booking was easy and friendly and what a treat when we arrived. Absolute silence in the hills. Our smiles were testament to the choice we had made. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming and gave us plenty of space to enjoy the fabulous, vast gardens and surroundings, advising us on walks around the property and on the plateau behind the cottage, up the hill. We very much look forward to returning to this special place and being able to switch off from the pace of modern life.
