A perfect family getaway in the heart of Eryri (The Snowdonia National Park). This three-bedroom holiday home is a wonderfully positioned property with so many local attractions within close reach. A must for the adventurous is the extremely popular Zip World at Penrhyn Quarry (1.5 miles), and of course Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) just a few miles away. Venture to Llyn Padarn (7.5 miles), a stunning glacially formed lake, perfect for watersports, with paddleboard and kayak rental and lessons, wild swimming, or simply have a walk around whilst admiring the scenery. The nearby Ogwen valley is perfect for walking in the mountains, whilst a cycleway runs all the way down to Port Penrhyn near Bangor. Enjoy a stop at the local farm shop and cafe on your way. For a more relaxing visit try the National Trusts Penrhyn Castle, the train up Snowdon or along the shores of Llyn Padarn, a visit to the magnificent Caernarfon castle, or, ideal for the kids, Greenwood adventure park.

Standing alone amongst green fields and beautiful scenery, this attractive barn conversion is ready to receive you and your guests. The property has been designed with a clean and contemporary style throughout, always ensuring that comfort is the number one priority for every room. Enter onto the ground floor where you’ll find a sunny lounge/diner with quality Welsh slate tiles. This room has been decked out with a squashy L-shaped sofa that’s a joy to sink into, a Sky TV/DVD in way of entertainment and a generous dining table. From here you can enjoy direct access into the conservatory, a well-illuminated room with floor-to-ceiling windows and plenty of seating – take a seat here and simply admire the view. Heading back through the lounge you’ll find a compact kitchen with plenty of space for getting prepped. Completing the ground floor offering is a generously appointed double bedroom with a unique addition of a shower cubicle in the room, alongside an adjacent cloakroom with ground floor WC. You can find two further bedrooms just upstairs on the first floor. The master bedroom has been made up as a lovely double with far-reaching views and the added bonus of an en-suite. The third and final bedroom is a triple room with three single beds, perfect for younger guests, and is served by a shared family bathroom.

Benefit from the masses of space that surrounds you when making full use of the gardens. Set to lawn and complete with patio furniture, this garden space offers you the unrivalled opportunity to soak up far-reaching views of Snowdonia and beyond. Sink into your 7-seater hot tub to ease aching muscles and admire the hills and mountains you’ve just climbed.

A fantastic stay surrounded by the mountains. You can't fault the view and the location is great. Remote enough to feel relaxed but with supermarkets / towns 15/20 minutes away. The only small improvements would be that there could be a few more up to date mod cons such as a smart tv, coffee pod machine etc but this is far from a deal breaker to thRead moreis incredible find.

The cottage is lovely, with fantastic views out the back. Layout us well thought through with the downstairs bedroom, stairs and 1st floor bedrooms separate to the kitchen and living areas. Plenty of space and we'll equipped. Some family games and some dvds for evening entertainment if you wanted it. A welcome back of welsh baked goods, tea coffRead moreee and milk was very much appreciated after our long journey. The cottage was ideally situated for exploring the area around Mount Snowdon. A local Tesco express in the village was handy for essentials, with larger supermarket choices in Bangor. For the nature lovers there was plenty of bird life to watch and we were frequently serenaded by a pair of Tawny Owls in the early evenings. We spent many an hour watching the light change over the mountains, it was very beautiful. Hide

Appreciated the welcome pack, thank you. The views and location of the property are the strong points. It is ideal for visiting Anglesey, Snowdonia and N. Wales coast. The hot tub was enjoyed by all. We made good use of the BBQ as the weather was very kind to us. Love visiting Wales and will no doubt return to another region in the future.

Absolutely loved it here. Views were stunning, many evenings spent watching the sun go down over the mountains in conservatory. Very well laid out, there were 7 of us staying and we could all find space to ourselves if required. The lady that owns the house is just lovely. Would highly recommend this place.
