Parking for 1 car good. Kitchen well stocked with decent sized mugs and glasses which we don't often find. Would give higher rating but for the bathroom which is tired, lots of hot water but cold tap seized. Good location for exploring Snowdonia.

Would love to return in the summer to make use of the beautiful garden. Would definitely recommend
