Perfect place to stay for a break in snowdonia.. Very considerate hosts who made the cottage so welcoming with everything you could need to feel at home. Ideal location for all local attractions. Highly recommended. Five stars.

We had a brilliant stay at Y Cilgwyn.. The cottage was renovated to a very good standard and was very cosy. Our young daughters loved sharing the room with bunk beds. Richard was a fantastic host. He made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, even ensuring that the essentials like milk & butter (even fruit cake!) were there ready for us which was a great touch. We loved the fire and there was plenty of wood to get through to keep it going when needed. We particularly enjoyed the short walk over to the lake and the bridge going across it. Amazing scenery. We would definitely recommend this to friends and family considering a Welsh getaway in the future!

The place was clean modern and very comfortable had everything you want and was in a good location for visiting along the coast as well as inland to bedgellert and Lanberis and to visit Bala lake .. We had a great time there and we would definitely visit y cilgwyn again. Plus the added extras like the very tasty and lovely homemade fruit cake bread butter and milk plus tea coffee and sugar was all very welcomed after a long day travelling thank you so much Richard for a lovely week .

The house exceeded my expectation for the price I paid.. The owner was very friendly, and the house was very clean and cozy with very comfortable beds to sleep in. It’s located next to stunning landscapes and everything was great. I would recommend the house to anyone.

The cottage has been renovated to a very high standard.. It is very comfortble and well maintained throughout. Overall it is one of the best holiday cottages we have ever stayed in. The owner, who lives next door, was very friendly and helpful.

Had a really lovely holiday at this wonderful house.. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed (including free Wifi) to keep a family of 4 (including boys of 12 & 15) happy for a week. The house is modern and attractively fitted out. The location was ideal - close to the mountain biking centre in Coed y Brenin, and also close to Ffestiniog (to enjoy some of the Zip World offerings) and the White Water rafting centre near Bala. The location near the lake was absolutely stunning. Would love to go back again soon.

We decided to get away for a few days with our 8 month old son and were fortunately able to book and check in at Y Cilgwyn on the same day.. First time we've booked with this company and we weren't disappointed, the staff we spoke with at Sykes were very friendly, professional and extremely helpful! We were given all the information we needed to get there and were met on our arrival by one of the lovely owners, Richard. Richard and Tonya only lived next door, which was a great comfort should we need any help with anything. Richard welcomed us to his cottage giving us a run-through of the information pack and was always very open to our questions about the local area. We loved the cottage, beautifully finished to a high standard, great attention to detail, spacious and with the perfect combination of traditional and modern furnishings... A real home-from-home feel and the location was ideal. There's a general store, literally a hop away, at the end of the street and we were happy going straight out and walking around the lake as well as taking the easy drives to Bala, Harlech, Dolgellau Portmadoch and Portmerion. We will make a point of returning... we've actually already started our itinerary! Nikki, Ian and Gray Tracey xx
