This cottage is in a breathtaking location and is close enough to all the places to visit in Eryri National Park. Stabal cottage is well equipped and has everything you would need. It is so cozy we have just stayed at the cottage on somedays to relax and unwind. It truly feels like home from home and the owners make sure thatâs the case as they look after you so well. It is on a working farm but you wouldnât know it, itâs so peaceful and the sound of the stream makes it more magical. We will be back to Stabal Cottage in the future - a firm family favourite.

Maybe is the livingroom a little bit to small for 4 people, for us (two) it was perfect.

The cottage is a great base to explore the area or just to stay, relax and unwind. The host/owners are very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. We enjoyed watching the sheep, the farm and the farmers, the weather, and of course the planes. This is now a family favourite cottage and we will be back.
