Beautiful remote cottage on the edge of Snowdonia. Ideal for couples looking for a romantic break with no neighbors close by and a huge comfy bed for lounging in. The cottage backs on to a large forest which will appeal to dog walkers. Dog friendly pub about a mile and a half through the woods or cross fields into the village. Make sure you bring supplies with you as miles from the nearest big supermarket although apparently you can get deliveries and there is a big Co-Op in Bala. Heating not a problem and there is a fire with plenty of wood to keep you warm. Would be more than happy to come back and stay here again. ##### Steve This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steve 14 Oct 2019 #### Beautiful remote cottage on the edge of Snowdonia.
