Stunning cottage in a stunning location overlooking Llyn Tegid. The house had everything we needed for a perfect long weekend away with the family. Attention to detail and the quality of furnishings, bathrooms and bedding was superb. Highly recommended! We would have all loved some comfier seating in the kitchen to sit and take in that amazing viRead moreew. It was a fight between the six of us for the one padded chair! But that is a minor grumble.
