The property was exactly as described, in excellent condition, spotlessly clean and really well equipped with all the facilities and accessories we needed for our family of four. Waking up to the sound of birds and sheep each morning was an absolute joy, and the peaceful rural setting made it a perfect place to unwind. The only small request we would make is for the hot tub to be set a little warmer, but otherwise we had no complaints at all and would definitely love to stay here again.

We drove into Llangollen and Bala lake, each were about a 20 minute drive from the cottage but well worth it. Iâve already recommended this cottage to family and friends and wouldnât hesitate to go back.

The owners even made our stay better by decorating with a Christmas tree etc. Cannot fault it ,and the hot tub is checked by staff to ensure its safe samples etc . Would recommend people to spend a day at Bala and the train ride at Cowen well worth the money.
