Guests say
Maes Derlwyn is a charming and homely cottage in an excellent location for exploring Snowdonia and Llanberis. Guests consistently praise its cleanliness, spaciousness, and welcoming atmosphere, with many highlighting the peaceful setting and proximity to walking trails and attractions. The property is dog-friendly and well-equipped, with thoughtful touches such as welcome treats occasionally provided.

Multiple reviews describe the cottage as spotless, very clean, and well-presented on arrival. Only one review mentions a maintenance issue (shower leak), but this does not appear to reflect the general standard of cleanliness.
The location is universally praised, with guests highlighting its proximity to the Llanberis path, Snowdon Railway, local attractions, and peaceful surroundings. The setting is ideal for walkers and families.
Guests find the cottage warm, spacious, and comfortable, with a homely feel. Some minor points were raised about the size of the master bed for taller guests and the thickness of duvets in summer, but overall comfort is rated highly.
The property is well-equipped with good amenities, a large garden, and thoughtful extras. Some suggestions for improvement include more freezer space, user manuals for appliances, and a downstairs toilet. A couple of maintenance issues (shower leak, central heating) were mentioned but did not significantly detract from the overall experience.
Several guests appreciated welcome gifts such as milk, cakes, bread, Welsh cakes, and dog treats, which added a special touch to their stay. Please note that these gifts are not guaranteed for every booking.

A lovely location (literally a stone's throw from the Llanberis path). Plenty of space (we closed off a few extra rooms). Nice to have a garden for the dog.Weather could have been better, but early March in Wales what did we expect... First night I didn't realise how close the waterfall was, so we awoke on day 2 and thought it was still raining!!User manuals for air fryer and microwave would have been good, and we would have preferred a little more freezer space....However, very happy... Thanks

would have been better if they made cupboard by front door into down stair toilet as you have to keep going up stairs and if 2 people want to go at same time then be problem

Not terrible, but the central heating had no timer and wasn't great. Didn't get a very positive impression. Fridge obstructs the kitchen. Location is good for Snowdon and the waterfall.
