Guests say

Pengwern is a highly praised holiday cottage in Llanrwst, North Wales, celebrated for its beautiful spaces, stunning location, and excellent facilities including a hot tub and games room. Guests appreciate the property's cleanliness, comfort, and the thoughtful touches provided by the hosts. It serves as a perfect base for both relaxing and exploring the local area, with many guests expressing a desire to return.

Guests consistently note the property's cleanliness, describing it as 'spotlessly clean' and 'beautifully clean', indicating a very high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.

The location is frequently highlighted for its stunning views and convenience for local walks and attractions. Its proximity to Llanrwst and Betws y Coed, along with the scenic countryside, contributes to its high rating.

Comfort is a strong point, with guests finding the beds extremely comfortable and the property cosy. Some guests mentioned the sofas could be more comfortable, but this did not detract significantly from the overall experience.

The facilities, including the hot tub, games room, and well-equipped kitchen, are well-received. There are minor comments on maintenance and clarity on hot tub usage, but these are outweighed by the overall positive feedback.

The hosts are commended for their thoughtfulness, with mentions of a welcome pack and unobtrusive service. While gifts are appreciated, they are personal gestures and as such, cannot be expected with every stay.

    The hot tub tripped when set to over 38.5 degrees which we found a bit too cold. It would be good to have a gate to keep the dog from running into the forest across the road, but thankfully ours didn’t. The space and location were amazing and the beds were very comfortable - that’s huge for me personally as I’m a very fussy sleeper!

  • Janis

    Downstairs shower needs updating as the shower pressure was quite low. Also lighting could be improved there as the three pull switch often misbehaved. Very tiny TVs in the two bedrooms. However, great TVs in the main lounge and kitchen . Lovely setting and very easy to reach all types of ctivity.

  • Rebecca

    It was well equipped, comfortable and generally lovely. We loved the walks straight from the door and the local areas were beautiful.
