A brilliant holiday home. Lovely cottage and amazing outside area overlooking the river. A fantastic base to explore the area. We so enjoyed our stay and didn’t want to leave!
Lynn went out of her way to accommodate us, which we really appreciated! Fantastic cottage, wonderful location, so many little extras, we really felt at home. Beddgelert is such a beautiful village and a wonderful base to explore the surrounding area. We would love to return in the future
Another wonderful stay at this home from home. Lynn the host is a lovely lady. The house is clean, tidy and has everything we needed. My daughter has loved staying here. We came last year and was so impressed we came back again, and hopefully will be back soon.
Rhiwlas Cottage was perfect, clean and lovely size and had everything in that made a stay extremely comfortable. The setting is in the most idyllic picture postcard place. The river running along the bottom of the split level patios was so tranquil - all you could hear was the flow and the birds singing. Was easy to book initially and Lynn was the perfect host, a lovely friendly lady - kept us updated and was happy to answer any questions we had at any time. We couldn’t have wished for anything better and would thoroughly recommend staying at Rhiwlas. We’ll definitely stay again without hesitation.
This house was so comfortable! Wish we could have stayed longer. Right on the main road into Beddgelert - so easy access to pubs and shops. But also quiet and comfortable. We loved sitting out on the patio for breakfast and dinner and even just to relax - the river is beautiful and we loved seeing the cows across the way coming down to drink. The kitchen was well-equipped - we cooked breakfast every morning and several dinners during our 5 night stay. Street parking out front was easy (and free). Would definitely stay here again!
Lovely property, garden was beautiful with the stream next to it. Host was lovely too and allowed us a late check out!Would definitely stay here again.
Another fantastic stay at Rhiwlas. Great to have lovely weather so we could enjoy the riverside terrace at its best. Perfect location and ideal as a base for exploring Snowdonia/North Wales. Thanks Lynn for excellent hosting once again.
Wonderful property for two of us and our dog to explore north west Wales for a few days. Short walk to the dog-friendly pub for dinners & a pint or two.
One of the most wonderful places I've stayed in. Took my Mum for a mini break. The cottage was perfect for us. Very comfortable and cosy, and had everything we needed to make the stay just right. The location was stunning! The river was so relaxing and we even saw a cormorant that stayed in the same position for a full day. Thank you, I hope to return maybe with my Mum again or my husband.
We really enjoyed our stay, the river is your backyard and we slept with the windows open at night to listen to the nature. Location is fantastic, it was quiet, clean and nicely appointed. Lynn was an excellent host. I would definitely stay here again on our next adventure to north Wales.
Lynn was great to communicate with and provided helpful responses. The cottage was exceptionally clean and extremely quiet, especially after the day visitors to Beddgelert headed out. Overnight we experienced a wonderful quiet in which the loudest sound was a bird calling. The cottage’s kitchen was very well equipped and kindly stocked with milk and some snacks, vinegar and oil. The washer and dishwasher and the oven and range, all appliances, worked wonderfully. There was a very good expandable clothes drying rack, we were not able to find the clothes dryer. Wifi was strong, lots of good tv options if needed, and the main bed was very comfortable. The location cannot be beat. The terrace directly accessed via the kitchen looks out on the delightful small river with its clear water and the large trees and field beyond. A short and easy walk into town and all of the shops, pubs, and the visitor center. Parking was mostly easy to find on the street, especially outside of the peak day visitor times, and there is a nearby car park, though we never needed to use it. Overall a wonderful place, highly recommended.
The most beautiful place my family has ever seen in Uk is the village where we stayed . Thank full to the host for this wonderful opportunity for the guests . Really enjoyed the stay over there and will remain in our memories for ever from now.....also Welsh mountains are outstanding ....
We had a wonderful time. The house was like a home from home. The surroundings were spectacular. A truly wonderful break and we will definitely be back again!
