We had a fantastic stay at this cottage, warm on arrival, which was lovely on arrival, much bigger than expected, spotlessly clean and so well equipped. Will definitely be booking again

I was really sad to leave. This is the absolute perfect little cottage a 5 min walk from Beddgelerts shops & etc. The facilities were great, washing machine & dishwasher. Its decorated beautifully throughout. I used this as a base to visit the surrounding areas such as Portmeirion, Porthmadog, Caernarfon, Bangor and Anglesey. A very interesting garden with a beautiful view from the top. I enjoyed so much that I was very sad to leave, although I do plan on going back. Good communication from owners. 100% recommend. The only thing I will say is that the beds arent the most comfortable, but not enough to necesarily complain about.
