Enjoying countryside views, looking towards Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), a homely interior, and a convenient location within driving distance to both the beach and the Snowdonia National Park, Bodrual Cottage welcomes nine guests for a group getaway. Benefit from ample off-road parking, before making your way into the cottage, firstly arriving at the open-plan living space, abording lofty beamed ceilings and enough space to accommodate your entire group; rustle up delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen, gather around the large dining table, and relax with the woodburning stove alight. Outside is set up for alfresco living with extensive gardens which house a decked area complete with a pizza oven, a fantastic play area for the kids and for the grown-ups, a wonderful seven-seater hot tub. You can imagine spending lots of happy holiday time here soaking in the tub while watching the children play safely before stepping out and tucking into delicious home-made pizza.

North Wales places a great deal of historical and cultural significance on Caernarfon (county town of Gwynedd). With its magnificent castle from the 13th century, well-preserved town walls, and charming waterfront, it is a well-liked tourist destination. There are unique activities, such as historical pageants, and guided castle tours during the season. Additionally, there is a station for the Welsh Highland Railway, which travels through stunning terrain before arriving at Porthmadog and the settlement of Beddgelert. Fishing excursions are offered from the harbour, and Segontium, a Roman fort and museum housing many significant artefacts, is another attraction that can be reached on foot from the town centre.

    We had an issue with the bath leaking but Gareth the owner sorted it for us. The cottage had everything we needed, but a small suggestion would be a bigger fridge and some non-stick frying pans.

  • Charlotte

    We particularly loved the outdoor space (playground and BBQ area), as well as the open plan living/kitchen/dining. Thank you so much to Gareth and family for looking after us during our stay! Recommendations in the local area for families with young children: Gypsy Wood, Pili Palas, Abersoch beach, amusement arcade at Pwllheli, Caernarfon Castle.

  • Cathy

    ! Outdoor Space brilliant - Hot Tub & Pizza/B-B-Q area great The bedding & towels were great quality. The double bedroom with en-suite was Fab - Mattress & Pillows were perfect. But the other beds apparently were a tad hard!! The Hosts were very friendly & on hand if we needed anything. The Welcome Pack was the best Ive ever come across Would definitely recommend Bodrual Cottage & would definitely consider staying again
