Guests say
Guests have praised Hafod for its excellent location, stunning views, and friendly hosts. The property is well-equipped and comfortable, offering a peaceful farm setting ideal for exploring North Wales. While some guests mentioned minor issues with cleanliness and hard beds, the overall experience is highly regarded, with special mentions of thoughtful touches like Welsh cakes.
Most guests found Hafod to be clean and well-maintained, though there was a single mention of dust causing discomfort for a guest with allergies. This seems to be an isolated incident rather than a common concern.
The location is consistently celebrated for its perfect balance of tranquillity and convenience for exploring Snowdonia and nearby attractions. The absence of a local pub within walking distance was noted, but did not detract significantly from the overall positive feedback.
The property is generally considered comfortable, with spacious living areas and a welcoming atmosphere. However, several guests found the beds too hard, suggesting room for improvement in this aspect.
Facilities are highly regarded, with the property being well-equipped for self-catering needs. There was a minor comment about the cooker extractor being just for show, but this did not impact the overall satisfaction with the amenities provided.
Guests appreciated the thoughtful gestures, such as the provision of Welsh cakes, which added a personal touch to their stay. It is important to note that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be a consistent offering.

The owners were friendly and helpful. We were pleased to have an efficient system for heating and hot water because of a cold snap. The advice not to use sat nav is valuable. Sat nav finds the village ok, but from then on follow the owner's directions!
