Idyllic cottage in a village that is very quiet and a great place to get away and unwind. Good place to base and see Snowdonia. Owner clearly listens to previous reviews as the furniture has been changed, the bed is very comfortable and the shower is new so well done. We had a very pleasant weeks stay with our Staffie, the rear garden is a sun trap and enough room to sit out side looking over the fields. ##### Graham Loughran ### 8/10 Good #### Mike L. 17 Aug 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Traditional cottage. Facilities are good for a budget stay. ##### Mike L. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nicola Y. 29 Aug 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Quaint cottage Quaint cottage in a quiet location with good facilities which we enjoyed staying in. Comfortable beds with comfy pillows & quilts for a good nights sleep. Unfortunately, we were disappointed with the presentation of the external areas as unlike the advertisement there was much clutter, dirty door step, weeds & overgrown wet shrubs. Quite unkept! Inside the property there was a maintenance issue with mould growing in the main bedroom window bay plaster. There were several large cobwebs & the fridge door shelves were unclean. ##### Nicola Y.
