Lovely cottage in an amazing location for exploring Snowdonia. The Slate Trail is right on the doorstop, as is the stop for the Sherpa bus to get you into the mountains. Parking can be tricky if you have a larger vehicle, but the public car park is very convenient if necessary. Fantastic outdoor clothing shop right next door!

Well appointed cottage in a great location perfect for family of 4. Modern and spacious interior meant we had plenty of space and could chill out without being on top of each other at the end of a long day in the mountains. Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
