Enjoying a tranquil riverside location, this large detached cottage makes a fabulous getaway for families and groups of friends keen to discover an unforgettable part of Eryri - Snowdonia.

This is an amazing cottage in an amazing location with amazing facilities. There is literally everything you could need. We visited with 10 people and there was plenty of space so that we werent on top of each other, with people in different places doing different things. The highlight for me was the kitchen where there is a huge table, kitchen iRead moresland, coal fire and more equipment / plates / glasses etc than you could ever need to feed everyone and have a great time. The highlight for everyone else was the beautiful location, the peacock at the kitchen window every day, cold water dunking (we visited in January) and the night sky was just something else! I would honestly live here if I could. The hosts are the nicest people, full of recommendations and on hand at the end of the phone anytime I had questions. Thank you for the best weekend Hide
