Lovely cottage providing all our basic requirements..

This is a great location for Zipworld (Velocity) you can see the start and finish from the windows.. Close to lots of great walks and places to visit in North Wales. Some modern features some old which we found great. Beds are really comfy and plenty of room in the cottage for 6 people. Well worth seeking out

Haulfryn was a delightful cottage with great views of the slate mountain; the pictures do not really do it justice.. It was extremely clean; spacious and comfortable including the bed! We would recommend it and would book it again if we go to North Wales.

A lovely cosy but spacious cottage obviously a lot of thought and love had been put into converting this house.. The parking was really good and welcome as it was up a steep hill! The welcome of a fire ready to light and a bottle of red was just what was needed after our foggy journey to Snowdonia.

We had a lovely family holiday in North Wales.. Haulfryn was perfectly located for our zipline experience and central to lots of lovely places to visit. Please note- the house is located at the top of a very steep hill but this means that the views are spectacular. Also, the Douglas arms is mentioned on the website however we would not recommend at all. It’s a very small uncomfortable room with no music, atmosphere or heating! The lady behind the bar was nice though. Better to walk slightly further to the other pubs down the road. This would be a lovely property to enjoy anytime of the year with a log burner in the living room and also lovely gardens and views.

Mr Rolph

Fantastic location with beautiful views and a short walk in to town where there is a tesco express, various takeaways, a few pubs and range of shops.. The house has a nice outdoor area, ideal for a BBQ and benefits from off street parking, which is good as the roads are quite narrow and on a steep hill so its good the cars are protected off the road. This is a really comfortable property with plenty of space and it is well furnished for a ‘home-from-home’ feeling. It would be great if a second bathroom was available but the single bathroom within the property has a good size bathtub and a power shower. Also a bonus that is is within walking distance of Zipworld and snowdonia hiking trails.

The cottage was lovely, in a good location and the views (when it stopped raining) were stunning.. However, I would comment that although the cottage sleeps 6 people the "adult bunks" were not really suitable for my 6'3" son and his girlfriend (aged 23 and 24); they did not find them too comfortable and would probably be more suitable for teenagers than adults. Also the bathroom, although very nicely done, was extremely small. Otherwise the facilities were good and we enjoyed our stay.

Mrs Branson

This cottage was beautiful! The pictures don't do it justice. And the views are breath taking! There was 6 of us staying and the cottage felt big enough that we didn't 'step on each others toes' The mattress was so comfortable also - better than my own at home! We loved reading the details/history of the cottage from the owner. There was tons of information on how to work everything so we didn't feel the need to contact the owner for any help! Milk, butter, tea and coffee were available on arrival - after a 4hr drive this was a god send! Only thing to note is the entrance to the drive way - 6 adults and a roof box in a Mazda made our car very heavy and we scraped the bottom of the car entering the driveway!! We found it best for everyone (bar driver) to exit the car before entering so the horrible scraping sound didn't occur!

Mrs Hodgkin

The cottage was warm and welcoming when we arrived with milk in the fridge for a cup of tea.. The location is beautiful and it was a lovely family weekend. Thank you.

Think the search facility on the website needs improvement.. Allow multiple criteria to be input and allow the criteria to be retained. Seem to 'lose' the criteria and have to restart the searches currently. Which can be frustrating.

In the info provided would be helpful to mention bringing own dishwasher tablets.. Could do with some sharp knives too. On the whole, a lovely cottage and really enjoyed our stay
