Betws-Y-Coed was founded around a monastery late in the 6th Century. It grew very slowly with the development of the local lead-mining industry and today has earned the nickname of âthe Gateway to Snowdonia' and is one of North Wales' most popular holiday destinations. As part of the Snowdonia National Park it is surrounded by miles of unspoilt countryside and ancient mountains and is home to an abundance of wildlife and some rare species of plants. This is a Mecca for walkers, horse-riders and climbers looking to pit themselves against the trials offered by Mount Snowdon. There are a variety of attractions in and around Betwsy-Y-Coed, such as Fairy Glen, a secluded gorge and beauty spot on the River Conwy. The Swallow Falls are also extremely popular and offer a dramatic highlight to any visit. There is a good selection of pubs in the village, with a number of restaurants and shops.

The location was very quiet, with a stunning view yet, very close to Bewts-y-Coed for dinings, groceries, shopping and sight-seeing. The owner of the cottage was very friendly and welcoming. She prepared fresh milk and freshly baked scones on our arrival and checked on us twice to make sure weâre settling well. WI-FI was great! The heating was great! Everything you need in the kitchen and utility room were provided and available. Very relaxing indeed!

Perfect for families with plenty of space for children to run outside and play. The cottage had all home comforts needed for an enjoyable stay. I would be more than happy to stay again.
