Mike
Beautiful cottage, lovely views, great location, highly recommend!
Emma Carter
Really enjoyed our stay! The place was peaceful with lots of space for us and the dog. The kitchen had everything we neededand the hot tub was a great bonus, especially in the rain!
Sam
Charming place, fantastic spot, hosts made everything easy.
James
This barn is absolutely stunning! There's so much space and the decor is just beautiful. It really feels like a home from homeand the Christmas tree and decorations were a lovely touch. The place was spotless, warmand cosy too. It was the perfect getaway we all neededand the owners were incredibly helpful. A lovely chilled family gave us the perfect chilled fantastik New Year break.
Sophie
The property was nicely furnished and spotlessly clean. We were just a bit disappointed with the outside space as it wasn't very private.
Emily
A lovely cottage that is really clean and quite spacious. Just a heads up, one of the bedrooms doesn't have a shower, so you have to use the bathroom downstairs. Also, the TV signal can be a bit hit and miss.
Ella
A very beautiful cottage which served as a perfect base for our holiday. The most stunning views all around and it was easy to walk to most areas! The cottage was quaint and comfortable with fantastic showers, which we really miss now! Next door neighbours can be a bit noisy if you're unlucky enough to have people who don't sleep so remember to take earplugs! But all things considered, we would definitely return, it was the break we all needed, thanks!
Lucy
The cottage was warm, clean and really comfortable, plus the location is fantastic! We completely fell in love with the area, especially the mountains and beaches. There are some amazing walks and stunning scenery right from the cottage. We adored both the cottage and the surroundingsand we will definitely be coming back. Thanks for a lovely stay!
Emma
This cottage was really clean, spacious and well equipped in a stunning area of southern Snowdonia! It's just right for either an active or a restful holiday. Such a great find!
