The cottage was lovely. Clean, warm and with everything you could need. Kitchen was really well equipped rather than just the bare basics you usually find. Communication from the host, Kerry, was really good and the welcome treats of biscuits and milk was really welcome after a 5 hour drive. There was even tea and coffee.Bedrooms were all great and beds comfortable.We had our dog with us and the cottage was very dog friendly with treats and even throws for if you wanted to let you dog on the sofa. Location is good for access to Bangor, Anglesea and the National park. In 10 minutes you are in Bangor or over onto Anglesea. There’s also a chippie just 5-6 minutes away! Only slight downsides for us was the road that is quite close to the cottage we were in. Although you couldn’t really notice it indoors if you were sitting in the garden in the summer you would do. Also the private garden is not accessible from inside the house and you go out of the front door and walk round (literally 15 seconds) This is not really an issue except that it meant to let the dog out at night you have to put the lead on and walk round. Not a problem on a summers evening but in north Wales in November it was raining of course! Overall we would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

The property was lovely, very peaceful and was in a great location as it was near Llanberis and not far from Anglesey which were the two areas we wanted to visit.The beds were comfy and there was everything you could need in the kitchen. Some lovely treats were left for us on arrival and the kids appreciated these especially! The only slight downside was that there wasn't really anywhere to walk the dog at the cottage as it was near a main road with no pavements. Kerry, the host, was really helpful and communication was great throughout.

Excellent base for what we needed

We stayed at one of Kerry’s cottages for two nights. It’s very easily accessible from the North wales express way and only a short drive to Pen Y Pass car park. We found it clean and homely with everything we needed. Plenty of DVDs and games for relaxing. Fully decked out kitchen and comfy beds.

Lovely clean lodge with comfy beds

Lovely warm property, well equipped kitchen, games to play and books to read. Great hosts there to show us around and let the kids feed the chickens, which they loved. Lovely little food parcel to welcome us which the kids loved dipping into. Beautifully clean and comfortable with extra blankets and throws for snuggling. We didn’t realise there was no bath when we booked which would have added to the experience and eased our muscles after hiking Snowdon but it is on the listing that it is shower only. Great property, the only criticism is that it was a little too close to the road for my husband and I who are very light sleepers. Having said that the closeness of the road made it great for visiting places and getting around.

Pre Wedding Stay

Me and my bridesmaids stayed at the cottage the night before my wedding - we were very impressed, the check in and instructions given to find the cottage we're clear and easy. We arrived to a beautiful cosy home away from home with all the amenities we could possibly need. We also had a good night's sleep being in a very peaceful and scenic area. Thanks so much for our snacks as well, we gobbled them up very happily.
