Property code: OC-BOW192

Find yourself fully immersed in mountain life as you stay on the foothills of Eryri - Snowdonia, making yourselves at home in this magnificent stone cottage that’s set to host six. Whether you’re sitting in the garden listening to the stream gently tumble past or you’re curled up together in the lovely lounge with a fantastic open fire, you’re sure to make memories that’ll last a lifetime in this truly unique holiday home. The property is also entirely pet friendly, wholeheartedly welcoming two dogs and perfect for those guests hoping to explore epic dog walks amongst mighty National Park scenery.

This spacious accommodation choice is all set out on one level, complete with three downstairs bedrooms and plenty of communal living space. Step inside to find the kitchen/diner, the bustling heart of the house with a sprawling island, all the necessary cooking facilities and a table for sociable mealtimes. You can also choose to dine outside, stepping out via patio doors to find a partly enclosed garden with furnished decking, BBQ and your own hot tub positioned for enjoying jaw-dropping views. After a quick dip, head back inside and warm up in the lounge. With ample seating, an open fire and a Smart TV, this is simply the most inviting spot for nights in.

The property is just a gentle 2.5-mile stroll into the village of Llanberis, an attraction-packed tourist destination with lakes and waterfalls, the historic Dolbadarn Castle and the National Slate Museum to visit. You can’t stay here without exploring some of the magnificent landscapes around Yr Wyddfa - Snowdon, and a popular waymarked pathway can be joined from a nearby spot in Nant Peris (0.5 miles).

The cottage was immaculately clean upon arrival. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. The pub is fantastic and a very short, easy walk from the cottage.

The cottage was very clean and had the basics we would have expected. The person who does the changeovers is clearly doing a good job. The area is beautiful and we visited many great places. However, we felt that this cottage was overpriced for the standard of the fixtures and contents. The towels have all seen better days, there was only one teRead morea towel to last four people a week, the kitchen knives are blunt and all the interior doors and handles are cheap and flimsy and creak loudly, which meant no one could lie-in if others were up. One bedroom door can only be shut properly by slamming it. The dining table is squeezed into a small area which meant that with four people at least one person had to get up to allow others in or out of the space. Before booking holiday cottages we always check that all fuel and electricity is included in the price. Your description states that logs are "provided" but in fact it is only a starter pack of logs that is provided. This should be made clear. We wondered why no previous reviews had mentioned any of these issues, so we re-checked the website. Having checked over twenty different properties on your website we did not find a single review with any comment that could be deemed even slightly negative. Clearly you are cherry-picking the reviews you allow your customers to see. The kindest way to describe this practice is misleading, some might say it is simply dishonest. For this reason we would not use your company again. Hide
