  Lovely stay at this cosy house.

  The owner was responsive to initial enquiries and also throughout our stay. The property is in a fairly rural location but just a short drive from Betws-Y-Coed and surrounding areas. The access, which someone else mentioned in a previous review, was a bit bumpy and difficult for our campervan but we managed it and on the last day of our stay the owner was doing lane maintenance so future guests shouldn’t have a problem. The house itself is very cute, with a games room and a spacious living room. It is obviously an old property which comes with its share of quirks and issues, but nothing which detracted from our experience. We had a fire going every evening which kept the place cosy, and the blankets and quilts provided meant we were very warm in the night. The bathrooms were spotless, the showers hot and the kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and all the utensils you might need. Some constructive criticisms: the second shower (over the bath) should have a shower curtain as you can easily flood the place when using it! The bottom right hob switches itself on continuously even when not in use (as soon as you flip the power switch for the oven and cooker) which is dangerous so should be looked into. The living room fire has quite a small fireguard around it and on one evening sparks flew over the top onto the carpet. We put them out straight away but we were concerned what would have happened if the dog had been lying there. I would suggest putting a higher one in place. Finally, the towels provided - although lovely and soft - were all the same colour and after about 2 days of hanging them on the towel rails to dry we were all mixing them up! I would recommend getting different colours or embroidered towels to help with this. Overall the four of us and our dog really enjoyed our stay. We would recommend staying here and would happily stay again if we were in the area. Thank you Jane for a lovely week!

  Thanks for letting us give feedback.

  The apartment was cold it was August and still cold the wall heater in the lounge would work stuck on WiFi. The bed needs changing the matress is knackered caves in the middle both ended up with back ache and coming home a day early couldn't do another night in that bed. The apartment smells musty all through worst in the bathroom. The was dust on top of the head board thick layer too. Cobwebs everywhere we got the impression the owners don't live near by and the cleaner just doesn't do a good clean. Came to empty the bins and outside at the back all the bins were overflowing. We struggled to wash the pots due to lack of hot water very small boiler we had hot water the first night after that it was cold had to use the kettle for hot water. We had to buy our own sheets from Tesco on the first day due to the 100 percent polyester ones they had on the bed we never used them. When we changed the sheets they was a brown stain on the under sheet which my wife said we need to buy an under sheet so spent most of my first evening at tesco buying bedding. The first thing I would do here is chande the mattress on the bed. They supply cotton sheets or don't supply any and update the advert. Put a new boiler in if you expect peoe to wash up after themselves. You will save on electricity in the end. Have a word with your cleaners and get them to clean properly dust big cobweb on the main light in the bedroom head board and behind the bedside cabinets. I am aware there are air reshners around but now and again open all the windows and doors to let the fresh air in it will make a difference. Do something with the front of the property it looks the worst on the street barring the one opposite as they are rebuilding that. Sorry it was negative feedback but honest. That's why we cannot stay another night it was cold and musty the bed was dreadful so cut short our break by a day. Gareth and Tunde Vincent

  We stayed at the Llys Madoc Basement Flat for 2 weeks in November.

  We found the flat well equipped and tidy; it has everything you would need or want. The flat was well laid out and heated superbly. The hosts (who live in the flat above) were very helpful and responsive, especially when some roadworks knocked the water off for a few hours. The flat is well located for easy/quick access to Penmaenmawr (.3 mile) and beach (.5 mile), and hikes up the hills in town, as well as being excellently located for other day trips. As mentioned there is noticeable road noise (primarily in the living room) from the A55 which is located to the back of the property. And as noted there are a few new properties being built along the road next to this property - but while there was some work going on it was not loud or disruptive. They are pet-friendly and the front entrance has 2 patio areas that are secure and safe for pets. Although the sofa could be a bit more comfy (you find yourself sinking a bit too much into the cushions), the bed was soft and comfortable.

  A lovely, light airy apartment situated in an ideal location.

  There are stunning walks on the doorstep and many places of interest only a short drive away. The kitchen is really well equipped if you're planning to cook. Things like mixing bowls, weighing scales and a measuring jug are provided along with all the basics you'd expect. The building project next door appears to be 'on stop'. We've visited twice in the last six months and there doesn't appear to have been any work done. It's a bit of an eye sore but no noise. The little grassed garden at the back with the boat is a lovely place to sit but it's not enclosed as it provides two parking spaces at the side. It wasn't a problem for us with an older dog but younger dogs who like exploring would need to be kept on a lead. There is a secure concrete courtyard at the front which would be fine for little dogs but was a little small for our larger dog. We love it here and will be back again next year.

  The cottage was spotlessly clean, reasonably sized except for the kitchen which was small, and for us had perfect minimalist decor.

  Kitchen is small and fridge is in the utility, making cooking a little awkward (a sharper kitchen knife would have been appreciated too). There's some lovely takeaways though - we enjoyed Dinos and East Eat in particular. On days weather permitted we are in the lovely contained garden with spot on dining set in a sun trap Parking is far from ideal. It's on street free for all parking, you're on a bend, next to a really confusing driveway next door (they have a drive but no stopped kerb to indicate start and end), on a narrow road with a driveway just along opposite. Having a washer drier was a fab facility, but the dryer function on didn't work very well, was incredibly loud and didn't seem to work! Overall, it was a lovely stay, but unless parking changes we'll look elsewhere next time we want to stay in the area.
