Didn't quite know what to expect, but I can honestly say it exceeded all expectations- The cottage had everything we needed- fully kitted out kitchen with dishwasher; we had access to the washing machine and drying room (where we safely stored our bikes). Seems that the current description of the cottage is not up todate on the website- there was in fact excellent wifi in Lily cottage. Finally, water pressure and hot water in the shower was also excellent (thankfully not one of those flimsy electric heaters which barely warm up). Location- You won't be able to walk out or cycle out from the cottage but as long as you don't mind driving out, this will not be a problem. No issues for us- location was perfectly placed for day trips (which we did) to Llyn Peninsula, Aberglaslyn, Beddgelert, Llanberis and Cwm Idwal. There were also excellent cycle routes from Caenarfon (which is just 5 minutes away by car). Since we've been back, we've recommended Lily Cottage to numerous friends- will definitely stay again when we return to North Wales!

The property owner was very welcoming which makes such a difference.. The farm was beautifully kept and not a blade of grass out of place. We were very impressed. The courtyard the property was in was lovely with a couple of old fashioned street lights in the middle giving a very homely touch. The property itself was very easy to find with the approach giving the appearance that we would expect. All in all a very good holiday and I would have no hesitation in recommending this property to anyone.

Mrs Birch

Such a lovely cottage and beautifully kept surroundings , everything you could need and very good wi fi signal .. The host was very welcoming and although we didn’t need her for anything during our stay we knew how to contact her at any time . The cottage was so clean and all guidelines put in place for Covid ,very reassuring during this time . Would recommend for couples but also would be great for families to have a cottage each ! Brilliant location for visiting Angelsey ,Llyn peninsula and Snowdon .

Mr Wright

August 2018

This was a fantastic cottage in a great location.. I would definitely recommend it!

Mr Baldwin

The cottage was a well converted barn.. It was handy for Snowdonia but led out directly onto a busy lane so nowhere could be safely reached without driving. There was a lack of storage space and WIFI and telephone connection unreliable. Main deficit was lack of drying facility. The weather was much as one would expect (accepted), but towels and wet clothes could not be readily dried.

Rhian made us very welcome.. Lily Cottage is well equipped with everything you need. There is also a laundry room and a games room on site. Conveniently situated to explore North Wales and Anglesey.

The accommodation was clean, comfortable and provided everything we needed for our stay. The owners made us very welcome and we were even befriended by her cat who spent several hours with us. As we are both disabled we found access to the cottage easy and the wet room an added bonus.

We had a warm welcome from the owner. The place itself was in a wonderful conversion, we could not fault it in any way; hopefully we will be back in the future.

Mr Sperring

Had a good welcome, with clear attention to detail. Properties and immediate area developed to a very high standard. In a good location for a wide range of activities and interests. There was sufficient local services for our needs, with a larger town only a couple of miles away. Ideal.

A good welcome from the owner and clean accomodation. Location is excellent and I have no complaints about any aspect of the accomodation or surroundings.

October 2013

The cottage was just lovely. When we arrived we were so taken by the whole area. Very well maintained cottages and gardens. Being on the farm was so relaxing just sitting out in our wee private garden listening to the cows. Terrific central area for the whole of North Wales. Owner was lovely and helpful. Good laundry area and pool table room. The most amazing sunsets I have ever seen. No hesitation in recommending this cottage and the area.

Miss Hay

August 2013

It was great, I could not think of anything that would have made the cottage better!

The friendliness and helpfulness of the owner and the lovely touch of a little welcoming refreshment of a Welsh cake with jam and cream! Also, as my wife is disabled, we very much appreciated the facility of a walk-in wet room for the shower.

Mrs Hollins

April 2011

The welcome from the owner was very warm and friendly, we felt at home straight away. The property was excellent and in a very quiet location but close enough to reach good beaches. We definitely want to go back soon!

Mr Ndlovu

February 2011

Quiet place with beautiful surroundings and no interference from the owner.

Lily Cottage was very clean, nicely layed out, every item that you could think of was there in the kitchen, all you had to do was supply food and turn up. The location was very quite, but close enough to town if you wished to go and do shopping. I could not thought the anything, and i liked the underfloor heating in the cottage.

'Ouzo Olive' - Greek Restaurant in Caernarfon, serves excellent food. Local towns within a few miles; Beddgelert, Betws y Coed, Llanberis are all worth a visit. Excellent for hiking nature trail lovers.

Mrs Rapson

June 2010

The cottage was in a good position for visiting many places of interests including steam railways, castles and National trust properties. It was a lovely welcoming property to come back to at the end of the day. The weather was good and we were able to have some meals out on the attractive patio in the sunshine.

Ms Morris

The people that run the cottages were friendly and invited us for champagne and fireworks on new years eve. Very nice. Owners kindly left milk, biscuits and some wine, very thoughtful.

December 2009

A delightful 1 bedroom cottage in a quiet and peaceful location close to all that Snowdonia has to offer. The owner was very welcoming. A modern decor with all the mod cons to make our stay comfortable. I would stay here again on my next visit to Snowdonia.

Very enoyable stay. Lovely converted barn building in pleasant surroundings. Great location to visit mountains and coast especially for NT properties. Owners live on site and are available if you need them but the cottages are entirely self contained and private. Would definitely use them again if staying in this area.

Mr Sturrock

November 2009

A beautiful cottage in a lovely location close to Snowdon. Lovely welcome from the owners with Welsh scones, tea and coffee on arrival in cottage. A perfect get away from it all holiday.

Mrs Ambrose

September 2009

The location is excellent, quiet enough to be relaxing with superb views, but close enough to the local town and supermarkets! The cottage and its setting were absolutely stunning.

Mr Davies

August 2009

Friendly, easy-going hosts and lovely cottage.

Miss Green

July 2009

The location of the property was perfect - out in the countryside but close to the town. Good base for exploring the western area of Snowdonia.

Mrs Sandbrook

June 2009

The cottage and surroundings are a delight. We were very satisfied and enjoyed our holiday all the more because of the high standard of the cottage. The situation is central for so many locations: beaches, mountains, mines and walks and we could make full use of our National Trust membership at the properties nearby.
