An excellent well presented cottage, accessed by steep single track roads, located remote in the hills surrounded by sheep fields, with lots of good walks in the locality and a short drive to Betws-y-Coed and mountain walks beyond. The cottage was clean, well equipped and facilities were more than adequate. We really enjoyed our stay and will be back again.

A beautiful idyllic cottage high in the hills, surrounded by sheep for neighbours! The cottage was spotlessly clean with some lovely welcome biscuits. The owners are on hand for any concerns or advice. We had a great stay!The single track road to the cottage is very steep and narrow, but worth the views when you get to the top.
