August 2020

Excellent cottage, which was spotlessly clean, and very well equipped for a large group.. 2 living rooms were ideal for our group. Large American fridge freezer in the kitchen, and another fridge in the utility room was very good. The Hot Tub was fabulous for all and our two Grandchildren loved it. The beds were all solid with good mattresses and very comfortable. We always had plenty of hot water. The owners were lovely, very friendly and they even brought their border collie puppies to show my 3 year old grandson. I would definitely recommend this cottage.

Mr Lee, August 2020

July 2020

Absolutely brilliant holiday.. Facilities brilliant enough room for all. Even the beds were really comfy which is something most cottages fail on. Owners on site and rally helpful and on hand if needed. Hot tub and surroundings were picture perfect can’t wait to come back.

Mrs Nix, July 2020

Great holiday location, venue was amazing and catered for a group of 9 of us.. The setting was beautiful and we will most definitely be coming back.

Miss Kidd, July 2020

February 2020

Set in the most stunning surroundings, the barn was beautiful, spacious and extremely clean! Mr and Mrs Smith were happy to help with any questions we had and were quick to help when we had a problem after a power cut due to a storm. Everything has been thought of with this property having a variety of books, DVD’s, games which came in handy with the weather we had. Also plenty of kitchen equipment with a lovely gesture of a welcoming cake on arrival. The hot tub was a huge bonus and was kept clean and checked every morning. Despite the weather we managed some stunning walks and enjoyed the spacious barn

Mrs Harris, February 2020

December 2019

Never been away at Christmas but it was brilliant to spend it all together in 1 place.. The barn is beautiful we can't recommend it enough, we were sat in the hot tub drinking Prosecco on Christmas day Mr & Mrs Jones are excellent they even sorted the Turkey for us. We will be back

Mr Upton, December 2019

November 2019

Really lovely cottage, had great fun in the hot tub.. Perfect size cottage for our group size of 8 adults and 2 children under 2yrs. Will probably try and find a cottage for our next friends get together somewhere a bit closer to things to do. Also not an easy place to find in the dark, would recommend people make sure to arrive in the daytime.

Ms Campbell-legg, November 2019

This is our third stay and as usual was a wonderful stay.. Mr and Mrs Jones were as helpful as ever and the accommodation and surrounding area is beautiful. Cottage is very well maintained and is very well equipped.Would highly recommend the property and will visit again.Hot tub was fantastic and very clean, the views from this are amazing.If you want to get away from it all then this is perfect,but not too far away. Lake Vrnwy is worth a visit and we had a lovely meal at the local hotel.

Mrs Johnsen

May 2019

The cottage was great, fully equipped throughout- especially the kitchen which included basics for instance condiments, soaps, washing up liquids .. The owners were on hand to help if we needed them. Lovely people- Fantastic scenery & great Sunday roast in the new inn pub. All together a great weekend

Mrs Murphy

April 2019

I wanted to alter the venue but it would have cost me £400 to do so.. As a result my family could only stay for four days instead of a week and we left the venue the day before planned. Because of your 'offer' (which meant only a small deposit was required) we couldn't enjoy a full week away without it costing me additional hundreds of pounds.

Mr Woodley

March 2019

The owners were really nice and welcoming, the accommodation was perfect had everything you could possible need.. The views from the cottage were amazing.

Miss Pape

January 2019

Excellent property with brilliant facilities and finished to a very high standard.. Can not recommend more highly and will defiantly book again

Mr Eyre

December 2018

We had an excellent New Year break at Y'Sgubor.. The cottage is spacious, clean and had all the facilities we needed. The views from outside are stunning and the hot tub is a great addition. We'd have no hesitation in recommending it, or coming back ourselves!

What an amazing place to stay. Even better than the pictures. As a group of friends that are also keen walkers we go on holiday together a couple of times a year and have been doing so for the past 8 years. This is certainly a contender for the best place we've ever stayed. Ticked all our boxes and then some. Living accommodation is ideal, lots of space but still feels like a cosy cottage too. Plenty of seating for everyone (not as common as you would think). Owners were nearby - helpful and friendly but not intrusive. The hot tub is huge and I can't imagine you will find a better view anywhere else. Beautiful walks from the door, proper country pubs down the lane, animals everywhere - the number of pheasants at this time of year are quite a spectacle. Perhaps annoying if you lived there, but we loved them. If you want somewhere peaceful and remote - no phone signal, limited Wifi, then this is the absolute perfect place. We got back last week and are all missing the place a lot. I cannot recommend it enough.

Mr Reilly

Highly recommend..

Mr Downs

The barn conversion was perfect for our large group of 10 adults and 3 dogs.. Downstairs is so spacious - at one end of the building is a lovely snug area that easily seated 8 people and had a log burner which heated the whole of the downstairs. The large kitchen was fully equipped with everything for cooking meals and the large table seated all of us for breakfasts. At the other end of the building is the fantastic living room/dining room with 3 large settees and 2 chairs so plenty of space for everyone. The dining table was great for gathering around for our evening meal. Upstairs the 5 bedrooms were more than adequate for our group - 2 were ensuite and the main bathroom had a lovely roll top bath and large walk in shower. The barn is located in a very remote area at the end of a 2 mile single track lane. This suited us perfectly as it was lovely to get away from everything and be surrounded by beautiful countryside. The views were stunning and it was great to sit in the hot tub and and look across at the hills and relax. We walked the 2 miles back to the village and enjoyed a couple of hours in The New Inn where we were welcomed by the locals and had a sing along. I will definitely book again.

Mrs Powell

October 2018

The cottage was perfect- brilliant and spacious for all ten of us to stay.. We had the best time and the owners were super lovely. Such a relaxing weekend- wish we could have stayed for longer.

Mrs Harrison

September 2018

Lovely rural setting, miles from anywhere so very quiet.. Several walks around the area straight from the cottage and many more a short car ride away. The hot tub was a real bonus but it did switch itself off a couple of times although the farmer fixed it straightaway. Highly recommended.

Mrs Hancox

Very enjoyable family weekend away.. Lovely spacious property with well equipped kitchen. Beautiful views from the hot tub. Would definitely recommend

Mr Law

August 2018

Wow what a view! !!!!

Mrs Kilgour

July 2018

The cottage was more than we expected - absolutely gorgeous and perfect for our needs.. 9 adults, 15month old and 3 dogs! We had booked Y Sgubor for a family birthday celebration and are enormously thankful to Mr and Mrs Jones for preparing the cottage for us, dealing with an online delivery and for being so quick to deal with a slight problem we encountered with fencing. We cannot praise them highly enough. Looking forward to staying here again at some point.

Miss Lerigo

June 2018

The cottage was fantastic, even better than the photos, beautiful setting and had everything we needed.. It was the perfect hen do location and loved by all.

Mrs Bowness

Ceinwen and Emrys were the best hosts.. The cottage was fabulous and they had thought of everything- even baking a Bara Brith for our arrival! :) We had such an enjoyable and relaxing break, we didnt want to leave, there was nothing we could fault. We are already planning our next visit as we all now want to move in and stay forever!

Mrs Palfreyman

We had an amazing week at Yscubor.. We met up with family there for our son’s wedding and then spent a week exploring. The house is well equipped and very comfortable. It is a great base for exploring the local area and even further afield, we went to Barmouth one day which only took us an hour. The hosts are lovely and even left us a homemade Barabrith

Mr Perrins

April 2018

A beautiful, clean, comfortable holiday home! Hot tub is always a winner with gorgeous views and the sounds of countryside. Dogs barking on the first morning from about 4am was a pain. There were nine of us that either spent 2 or 3 nights there which meant large meals and LOTS of washing up. So for us to find the dishwasher not working was frustrating but to have only one single dish cloth to wash everything was also not good. Otherwise, absolutely SPOT-ON!!

Ms Morris

March 2018

A very well stocked cottage making self catering easy.. Our hosts were very attentive when we needed them. Hot tub is fantastic and well placed with wonderful countryside views. Easy to visit attractions and altogether a relaxing break. Would visit again. Went down well with adult children too.

Mr Topping

It's a fab place to stay.. Stunning location. Peaceful. Amazing house. Friendly people.

Mr Campbell

We arrived when snow had blocked the lane up to the cottage.. Mr Jones did a fantastic job moving our stuff (we had allot) to the cottage using his quad bike. The cottage was cosy and warm but with lots of space. Underfloor heating lovely. Great views in general, especially from the hot tub.

Mrs Changer

February 2018

Fantastic house - photos don’t do it justice.. Plenty of walks from the front door and stunning scenery. The house was spacious and comfortable with everything you need. We are already planning our next trip!

Mrs Thornton

Lovely house which is set in a beautiful location.. Had a great weekend with friends and this place allowed us to let our hair down and totally relax. Thank you

olivermay_uk

An absolutely wonderful cottage with all facilities you need for a comfortable holiday, lovely walking area with local pubs close by.. The owners are so helpful and provided a Christmas Tree for us, which really made our stay. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. The house is so clean and warm with under floor heating and comfortable beds.

In the midst of a weeks stay here and can honestly say it’s one of the best holiday places we’ve stayed in! Lots of cooking equipment- didn’t lack for anything. Bathrooms were clean. The property photos don’t do it justice - really is stunning and walks out from the house superb. Waterfalls and reservoir were a good walk up the hill for the kids. Hot tub at night for

Mr Trotsko

December 2017

Great place to spend few day away.. Very nice and secluded location. Great size of the cottage easily accommodating 10-12 people, very comfy and cosy. We would definitely be looking to book it again next year

Mrs Maycock

We had the most wonderful time at y sgubor for a family Christmas.. When we arrived we were greeted with a home made hamper of goodies and we were shown around the house and everything was explained to us. The house was absolutely perfect for what we needed and had enough space for all of us...and more! The only thing we had an issue with during the week was the beds and 50% found that they couldn’t sleep well or woke up with back ache but the other half of us were fine so I think that’s just down to Home comforts. On our last day we were snowed in and the lovely couple in the house next door were so helpful. The lovely gentleman used his tractor to hold back all of our cars from sliding down the hill (one van and 3 cars). He spent a good couple of hours helping us and it was very much appreciated. We all had an absolutely magical Christmas and will definitely be returning in another couple of years. Thank you

Mrs Welborn

The cottage was superb and the owners were extremely accommodating..

Mrs Davies

November 2017

Really nice cottage - the kitchen was very well stocked and the cottage had plenty of room for us all to sit in the evenings.. It was lovely having the wood burners to make a cosy atmosphere. The hot tub was used and enjoyed by all. Would definitely consider returning.

Miss Reed

Absolutely gorgeous cottage ! !! Equipped with every possible utensil ever required :D Lovely surroundings & brilliant hot tub which is in a lovely garden area. Plenty of space for a big party in the house, which is absolutely immaculate ! My boyfriend & I drew the lucky straw and stayed in the family room which is just stunning, with its own walk in wardrobe! (however feel like I was in a disco as the lights flickered in there :D ) No complaints at all & will return for sure in the nearby future!!! Thank You for a lovely stay

The surrounding countryside is outstanding, the view from the hot tub is truly beautiful. Very spacious, well planned internal facilities, warm and cosy. The kitchen had every amenity and we arrived to find a bara-brith on the table, very welcoming. Internet radios in each sitting room, plenty of wood for the wood burning stoves, well organised recycling. Thoroughly recommend it for a large family get together.

J0rdan2004

This place is fantastic and well worth booking, I loved the fact there was no mobile phone signal so no one from work could get hold of me! The walks from the barn are brilliant, we did an evening walk up the hill and the views were stunning and a walk down to the local pub and a round robin to the oldest church in Wales and back to our place which took about 4 hours. The owners are lovely and were on hand if we needed them, the dogs and sheep were great to hang out with and the barn itself was amazing, very clean and well looked after. We had 7 adults, 3 dogs and a baby and we were all entertained for the whole week. If you want a relaxing break away from everything then this is the place to visit. Asda deliver to this address so with a quick online shop you have everything you need!

We had a fantastic holiday at Y Sgubor, excellent facilities, beautiful location and extremely friendly owners, highly recommended!

Jennifer S

February 2017

It really felt like a home from home, with the house immaculately furnished and clearly no expense spared. The hot tub really did make it for us! The owners lived just far enough away to give us our own space, but close enough that I could lend some tonic from them! They are lovely people, even unpacking our food shop for us before we got there - a real credit to the property! We would all come back in a heartbeat!

Sally M

September 2016

Love this place stayed last year for my 40th and this year for my sisters 40th. It's spotless, home form home and more, I want to move in. Love Emmrys and his wife, spend more time outside in the fields with The kids and the sheep than indoors. The views are stunning and the surrounding countryside is great for lovely walks. You don't need to leave the lodge. My parents and relatives have booked already for a week. We can't stay away !

Mrs Roseblade

August 2016

The situation is absolutely beautiful, very relaxing. The property was wonderful for a whole family get together and catered for four generations. Although the owners home was nearby we didn't feel overlooked and we felt we could go to them with any problems or questions.

Mrs Mackenzie

July 2016

A fantastic location and a beautiful property. The owner was very helpful.

Mrs Hand

Yet again the farmer made this holiday amazing. All of us children get to help on the farm with the sheep and baby lambs. The views from the hot tub were stunning. An astonishing 40th birthday weekend for my mum! Thanks Owen

Miss Burgess

Y Sgubor is a fantastic cottage would definitely recommend! Thanks

Miss O'Donnell

January 2016

The stunning view of the valley as we sat in the hot tub was unbeatable! I also liked that there were two sitting rooms for separate space, but one is large enough for the whole group to be together in one room.

Mrs Noon

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location with stunning views. The hot tub is an added bonus! This is a very spacious cottage too.

Miss Picken

We loved the whole layout of the house, it was very sociable, with lovely decor and the underfloor heating was amazing, the dogs loved it! The hot tub was fab. We really enjoyed it!

Mrs Fowler

November 2015

This was our second visit and it is still amazing, would return again. It is great for families or groups. The scenery is stunning and the owners are lovely. Superb.

Excellent accommodation (plenty of space, very clean and all amenities provided) in a scenic location with a great hot tub to chill out of a night.

julesChester

This is our second visit and this place is amazing. It is spotlessly clean and has everything to make your stay a fantastic one. The scenery is exactly like the pictures and this cottage is just so well equipped with everything that you would need. If you want to just chill out and relax then this is the place, however there are some beautiful walks and activities nearby. I would highly recommend a stay here and the owners are a delight. This is great for groups and there are 2 lounges, with one at either end so the kids can be in one and the adults in the other !! Will be visiting again.

Lee M

September 2015

We booked Y Sgubor as part of my wifes 40th Birthday celebrations. We were a party of 10 including 4 under 8 children. The location was excellent for a getaway from the hustle of life. What made it especially good was the interaction with the farmer who let the kids feed the sheep. We actually felt like part of the furniture when we left. Already booked for next year.

Liked everything, Y Squbor was the perfect place to relax after a tough Bala Challenge. The setting with the hot tub was perfect, we will be back.

Mr Marsh

The cottage is brilliant. Location, location, location - if you want a remote hideaway, this is perfect. The farmer next door is so accommodating, he really went the extra mile to make our stay perfect.

April 2015

Had a beautiful outlook and was peaceful with friendly people. The hot tub was a bonus to relax in. We were a family of nine, there was a lot of room to move around and the children aged from 3 to 13 loved it. There was plenty to see and do in the surrounding area.

Mr Warren

A wonderful weekend. Stunning barn conversion.

Mrs King

The tranquility, scenery and hospitality in fact everything was unrivaled. The cottage is very spacious, clean and had everything you could possible want during your stay there. The hot tub was a fabulous extra in its own lovely garden. We were sad to leave, a week just did not seem long enough. We will definitely be back.

Mrs Owen

September 2014

We loved everything! It was a fantastic cottage and we are definitely going back in 2015. The views are amazing and the walks breathtaking!

The cottage is in the most stunning location, with fabulous views in all directions. The cottage was immaculate and fully equipped with everything you can think of. Already planning a return trip!

smilingsailor

We booked this as a base for a 40th birthday celebration, the photo's didn't do it justice. Spotlessly clean, absolutely everything in the kitchen available, very spacious. The hot tub is a major bonus. Although right next door to the owners and very accessible when required they just carried on their working life. Recommend activities white water rafting in Bala and cycling round Lake Vyrnwy. Already planning a return trip, highly recommend .

Mrs Tilley

April 2014

An amazing place to stay with stunning views. I took my 2 dogs and six children and the farmer let my children feed the lambs and herd the sheep! They were so friendly and helpful. !e all enjoyed the hot tub everyday and we didn't want to leave

Mr Crees

We had some concern that the photograph in the brochure made the barn look bigger than it was. This was not the case at all. Proximity of the owners was another concern but they were discrete and very helpful. Fantastic accommodation and a fantastic setting.

Mrs Rodda

February 2014

The location was excellent, stunning views. The hot tub was a real bonus! The log burners were great to have and the kitchen was the hub of the home.

Mr Marshall

The cottage is very well appointed to a high standard. This place delivered on all fronts.

Mrs Da Costa

The cottage exceeded our expectations with regard to how well it was equipped and the level of attention to detail. The fixtures and fittings were to a very high standard as were the bedding and towels.

Miss Weston

September 2013

We loved the property, the garden, the location and the hot tub! Already recommended to friends and family, and have started to plan next years visit.

This property was just perfect for us and our family. It is fitted out to a very high standard,spotlessly clean and well equipped. The location was beautiful, very remote and there are some lovely walks from the property. My son was able to go mountain biking nearby. It was also not too far from other places of interest. The owners are next door and very helpful and friendly.

Miss Basham

August 2013

Amazing holiday in the sanctuary of very quiet part of Wales. The cottage was brilliant, plenty of space, even for 8 adults and two children. The owners were lovely, very helpful and kind. The hot tub, and views were the best part.

Stammers

The house was an excellent base to explore some beautiful sights of Wales. It was nice to come back to a comfortable, well equipped property. It really was home from home. The jacuzzi was a treat, especially after climbing Mount Snowdon, it was very much appreciated.

Mrs Champken

JILLOF

April 2013

We stayed here last week, nine of us and a dog. It's well off the beaten track and the snowy hills were absolutely beautiful. We were all enthralled by the new born lambs in the fields and the adjacent barn. Mr Jones and his team were generous to a fault in allowing the younger members of the party to hold them. The house is very well furnished and equipped. Minor issues were quickly and effectively dealt with by Mrs Jones. We loved the space available and made full use of it, including the hot tub. The walk up into the hills from the farm is phenomenal and our spaniel was happy to be off his lead on such different territory. It wouldn't though suit a dog who might chase sheep. I'd go back there in a heartbeat.

March 2013

We all had such a fantastic time staying with Mr and Mrs Jones in their beautiful house. The extreme snow meant that we had to rely on them to help us get to and from the house and they were so willing to help at every turn, we couldn't have asked for better service! The house and hot tub were superb and we can't wait to come again in better conditions to see more of the beautiful countryside.

Ewan M

December 2012

The was an amazing cottage with excellent facilities. The hot tub topped it off. Our best moments were after MTB cycling all day to come back, have a warm shower and then drink a cold beer in the hot tub while watching the ice form and stars twinkle.

Mr Henderson

November 2012

The cottage was extremely well equipped and was perfect for our group weekend to celebrate a friend's birthday. Having the second sitting room and TV proved very useful.

Mr Stallebrass

October 2012

There wasn't anything we didn't like about our holiday. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. There was every need catered for and more. Tranquillity and beautiful views. A perfect setting for a perfect holiday.
