  • Beverley

    Beautifully appointed and immaculate. We loved sitting on the sofa looking out at the stunning view. We can’t wait to return.

  • Stephen

    Just the right size, clean, comfortable & peaceful. A great base for the Snowdon area and a short journey from the A55 and all the coastal resorts. The hosts are welcoming but leave you to get on with it. If you have any questions, they are always quick to respond. Whenever we are holidaying in this area, we check here first.

  • Sheila

    Equipped with everything we needed and more. Owner very approachable and helpful. Good location for exploring the area. I would definitely recommend the property to friends and family.
