What our customers say about their holidays

  The cottage was very clean and had the basics we would have expected. The person who does the changeovers is clearly doing a good job. The area is beautiful and we visited many great places. However, we felt that this cottage was overpriced for the standard of the fixtures and contents. The towels have all seen better days, there was only one tea towel to last four people a week, the kitchen knives are blunt and all the interior doors and handles are cheap and flimsy and creak loudly, which meant no one could lie-in if others were up. One bedroom door can only be shut properly by slamming it. The dining table is squeezed into a small area which meant that with four people at least one person had to get up to allow others in or out of the space. Before booking holiday cottages we always check that all fuel and electricity is included in the price. Your description states that logs are "provided" but in fact it is only a starter pack of logs that is provided. This should be made clear. We wondered why no previous reviews had mentioned any of these issues, so we re-checked the website. Having checked over twenty different properties on your website we did not find a single review with any comment that could be deemed even slightly negative. Clearly you are cherry-picking the reviews you allow your customers to see. The kindest way to describe this practice is misleading, some might say it is simply dishonest. For this reason we would not use your company again.

  We have now used the house for four holidays, and have booked for next year - mainly due to the value offered for a large group and location.

  Nice to see some work has been done (a few new beds and possibly some painting?), but the same old issues, extremely damp smell downstairs, questionable cleanliness of all crockery etc ( the plates are too big for the dishwasher so don't bother trying to wash them in there), filthy glasses and grubby cutlery. Dishwasher filter was revolting and needed scrubbing well. Fridge needs labelling that the bottom shelf will freeze your salad solid. Kitchen really needs a very deep clean. Still got a very dodgy loose tile on the kitchen floor which bites you if you aren't careful. Not offering towels is a mystery to me when most other houses do. Sauna is fab, but the downstairs bathroom really needs some TLC - grubby and very sad looking. But we'll keep coming back for the value spread over a group of 12 people. Don't expect luxury and you won't be disappointed. Oh, and bring your own sharp knives, the ones there are absolutely hopeless. Wifi needs some extenders to get it reliably throughout the house too.

  The house was in a very central location, within walking distance of the Sherpa'r bus terminal.

  There are a few buses that go to the different paths up Snowdon. Also within walking distance of the Snowdon train. It was a 15 minute drive to the supermarket. The house was perfect for a large group, the beds were comfortable, the living room struck the right balance between functional and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and everything worked well. The only negative was the sauna was not working, when we tried to turn it on it tripped the main circuit board. We did message the property owner and she came round and had a look. She got an electrician to have a look the next day but unfortunately they were not able to fix it. We also let her know a few other bits that weren't working and she got those repaired as well. She did offer us a refund due to the sauna not working, though we haven't had any confirmation on when we will receive it. All in all I would stay there again and I would recommend the property for any large groups looking for a central location to explore Snowdonia.

  Our family had a fantastic stay at Llywn bedw in April.

  Come rain or shine there was plenty to do and everyday we were amazed at the spectacular views and brilliant walks from this wonderful cottage. The cottage itself was full of character and quirkiness with good quality appliances and modern heating. There was plenty of seating options in and around the cottage, a beautiful kitchen table to sit around and spend time with the family, play cards and board games. The active river that ran along side the cottage was a fantastic bonus and set the mood peacefully for bedtime and the mornings, it was just glorious! Communication with the property hosts was 10/10, they were always happy to help and easy to contact if there were any issues. We are so pleased overall with our stay that we're coming back again this year when it's a bit warmer. We couldn't recommend Llywn bedw enough. Thank you for sharing this special home with us.

  We had a fabulous holiday at Llwyn Bedw.

  The cottage is in the most perfect location, walks are possible right from the door so you do not need to get in a car every day. The cottage is set back off the road unlike many other local cottages so provides an element of peace and tranquility that many places would not have. It is on the 'right' side of the mountains to receive some sun when it does decide to come out. The stream at the side of the cottage tumbles down the hillside and has some small 'pools' within which it is possible to take a cold mountain dip!! Very bracing. I'm sure the sheep wondered what all the screaching was about. The cottage itself has a comfortable family feel, the kitchen and living spaces are lovely and we very much enjoyed cooking and chatting around the table. The kitchen is very well equipped. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and would certainly love to return.
