  Well placed cottage for touring N Wales - Anglesey, Snowdonia, Betws y Coed, Port Meirion.

  Ffestiniog railway 2 minutes walk. Morrisons Daily, Co-op and takeaway all within 5 minutes walk. Spotlessly clean, small but beautifully formed. Everything needed for your stay - well equipped kitchen inc cafetiere. Full sized fridge, freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. Nicely and newly decorated, powerful shower!! Packet of welsh cakes and milk on arrival. Locking and opening the front door requires some effort as you need to pull quite hard on handle to enable you to turn the key - definitely a 2 handed operation. The back door leads out onto a set of steep steps up to sitting area which gets the afternoon sun. Agility is the key word for both dogs and humans! For dog owners be aware the front and back areas are not secure but plenty of walking opportunities within locality. Easy to miss cottage on initial drive by as it is set back down a concealed, narrow entry way behind trees. As you enter the road the cottages are behind you to your left - look out for the bright white frontage. You will need to drive in front wise and then reverse back out (about 30 yards). The owners have done a great job of providing a really homely, snug, well maintained cottage. All we needed was a bit more sun!! But, the mountains were spectacular whatever the weather ..............

  The cottage was very clean and comfortable.

  The heating was efficient and kept upstairs warm although the living room stayed quite cold (just the nature of the thick walls and being against the hillside). It wasn’t really an issue though as we had the option to light the fire which would have cosied the room up more. Beds were very comfortable. Good shower. Kitchen well equipped. Would have been good to have had full use of wardrobe/ cupboard in front single bedroom but half of it was locked so not quite enough storage. Front door was quite difficult to lock from inside and parking slightly tricky but ok once we got used to it. Sykes responded quickly when we had a problem with the smoke alarm and the housekeeper kindly came out straight away to see if she could help. The location is great for getting around. Recommend the steam train to Porth Madog, the slate cavern tour at zip world, Beddgelert village including copper mine tour, Portmeirion, Harlech Castle and of course Mount Snowdon which was the main reason for our stay. Also lots of interesting walks around Blaenau itself and the Fish and chip shop was good. Overall a good stay and would recommend this cottage.

  We had the best stay at this beautiful holiday home from start to finish.

  Everything we could have possibly needed for a home from home stay. The most beautiful location, so peaceful day and night with the most amazing walks and views all from the doorstep. The property owners were available if and when needed, which we didn’t as everything was perfect and the welcome pack gave us all the information we needed, thank you also for the welcome gifts. We would highly recommend this property we were 8 adults ranging from 18 -70 and a 14 year old and enjoyed by us all equally. The games room was great and we enjoyed some fun family times in there. There is a supermarket and take away a15 min walk away or a few minutes in the car. The fish and chip shop (Trish and Chips) was lovely as was Red Chilli’s which was Indian/Bangladesh food which was very good we wouldn’t recommend the pizza/burger take away but that’s personal choice. Around a 10 minute drive away the Bryn Hotel was very nice for a nice meal and drinks also. Overall this place was the perfect family break, for our Mums 70th birthday there was something for everyone and we are very much looking forward to returning.

  We loved this little terraced cottage!

  All the facilities we could ever need, with some little extras such as milk and welsh cakes. A comprehensive range of information and a perfect location right in the centre of Blaenau. We had a lovely time, despite the weather, thank you. Hubby struggled to work out how to use the TV remotes but worked it out eventually - maybe some instruction on how to access Sky would be helpful to future holiday makers. There were books, dvds, and games available for use too. Loved that there was a little supermarket just across the road - and people really should try the Kurdish Pasties from the bakery a little further up. A great central location for many sites of interest. We particularly enjoyed Betws-y-coed and Beddgelert. Such pretty villages!!

  This is a stunning property.

  Much bigger than I thought and extremely well equipped. Highlights included a double ninja air fryer and not one but 2 cafetieres, 2 fridges and even some bowls out for our two dogs. Perfect secure garden for them. Always catches the sun somewhere too. Gorgeous views from front and end windows. Huge games room with pool table and darts and loads of books and board games to enjoy as well. My dad who is 84 came with us and it was perfect for him with downstairs bedrooms and a bathroom with a walk in shower and a slightly taller toilet seat. I would highly recommend this place but don't want to in case the price goes up before we can book again.
