Bask beside a roaring wood burner or cook out on the BBQ and take in the views, when you stay at this gorgeous stone cottage in North Wales. Situated on the fringes of Blaenau Ffestiniog, at the heart of Eryri National Park, also known as Snowdonia, the three-bedroom, three-storey cottage sleeps six guests and welcomes a four-legged friend. It is a 0.5-mile walk from the centre of town, with its shops and eateries.

Let yourselves in through the front door of the charming retreat, leaving your outerwear in the hall and heading on through to the inviting lounge/diner. Stoke up the wood burner, which is set into a stone fireplace and chimney breast in here, then catch up on your favourite boxset on the Smart TV. Amble through to the long kitchen to whip up tasty meals when you fancy eating in, then call everyone through to dine back in the main reception room. There is another sofa and Smart TV in the kitchen for anyone wishing to watch something different. As eyelids begin to droop, bid your family and friends goodnight and make your way upstairs to where the bedrooms are located. Two doubles and a family bathroom are on the first floor, while a twin room can be found on the floor above. Relax with a cup of tea on the bench to the front of the cottage or while away sunny afternoons in the delightful garden at the back. Here, you will find a balcony and patio where you can dine out in the fresh air.

Venture 2 miles from the cottage to have an adventure at Zip World at Llechwedd. Walk less than 1 mile to see the waterfall at Cwmorthin. Also stroll 1 mile to the shores of the Tanygrisiau Reservoir, with its picturesque walks.

This was a great holiday cottage, really well appointed with all the little details that make life easy like hand wash, washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets. The cottage was really close to a great waterfall and lake where the kids spent ages skimming with slate. The property and enclosed garden were great for the dog, and looked like it would Read morebe great in summer time for a BBQ. Hide

Overall the house was a good base to venture out and about. The Kitchen was well stocked with appliances plates, cups and cooking utensils. The living room was comfortable. The same for the dinning area. The bedrooms were clean and bed linen was clean and the beds were comfortable. the parts of the garden that had been updated were great.
