WHAT A WASTE!!! A lovely location with great views BUT……. Has clearly gone downhill since last review 10 years ago!! This could be an absolute gem but there have been repeated reports of serious maintenance failures that have been totally ignored. The settees springs have gone, they are extremely uncomfortable and clearly past their sell by date. There are numerous dangerous areas of rot on the decking with holes and exposed nails and screws. Our dog caught one of his paws in a hole and the same could easily happen to a young child! The shower is STILL very stiff and difficult to control. Additionally, the advert states fridge freezer but there is NO freezer or freezer compartment - very annoying if you’ve taken any freezer food with you. It claims there is Sky Cinema but there is not. The kitchen is not well equipped. For instance, there is no tray for oven cooking chips or anything else and the tin opener doesn’t work. The lodge is generally run down outside and it is clear that the owner does not want to spend a penny on the property. We went home early for a bit of comfort!!! VERY disappointing.

James made our stay safe and welcoming under COVID.. We loved everything about the lodge and surrounding area. Lots to do and see or sit back and do nothing other than admire the views.

Lovely comfortable lodge in a beautiful setting.. Only one small issue, for the larger person ( husband 6ft 3) shower far too small.
Mrs Hawkesford
September 2018
This was a very enjoyable holiday.. Lodge was handy for places we wanted to visit. It was comfy, tidy & well equipped. The owner was very friendly & helpful. There is Wifi, but when we managed to get it, it was quite slow. Apart from that, everything was good. Would go again & recommend.

Alpine lodge is situated in a wonderful location, in a quiet village with idyllic scenery. It is within easy reach of Llandudno, Conwy, Colwyn Bay, Betws-y-Coed, Penrhyn Castle and Botnant Gardens. The owner provides everything for your comfortable stay. We are hoping to return again, and again.

We stayed at Alpine Lodge for a week. It is a lovely well maintained cottage with all the right amenities for a family with kids; WiFi, very good central heating, a good kitchen and good size rooms with wardrobes. The cottage has very beautiful views as it is located on the hill looking down on the sheep farms. Overall we had a lovely stay.

We loved our stay at Alpine Lodge, it was very relaxing and peaceful. There was fantastic views all round the Lodge, every window you look from was like something you only see on a picture. The Lodge was very clean and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The owner is such a lovely lady she was very welcoming. We will definitely be going back very soon for our little bit of paradise.

I particularly liked the excellent view across open countryside and that the lodges are spaced nicely apart. The comfort and cleanness of the the lodge really helps you enjoy your stay. Also, the friendly welcome and helpfulness of the owner is great. Can recommend the property to anyone wanting a peaceful and relaxing holiday.

The landlady was very friendly and helpful. In a good location for exploring North West Wales and there was a good supermarket not too far away. The situation of the Lodge was excellent, with fine views. The boiler was very efficient and kept the temperature comfortable on the coldest of days.

The lodge is very comfy with plenty of space. The owner is a lovely lady who calls to see if everything is ok and to see if you need anything extra. The heating you can have as much or as little as you want.

this lodge was very well appointed and very clean. The owner lived in the village and ensured that we had plenty of clean towels and that we were ok. The location is quiet and central to North Wales with easy access to the main roads. The view from the lodge is unspoiled country side We are thinking of returning next year. The hot tub was very good .

I was so excited to go away for a long weekend with my boyfriend. I had searched through many log cabins available to rent and knew I wanted one that definitely had a hot tub as this was important to me. I came across the alpine lodge that seemed in a good location, had a hot tub and was at a decent price for 3 nights. It also mentioned a nearby pub which was also important especially to the boyfriend! On arrival we found the lodge and were welcomed by the owner. The cabin itself is quite nice, a little old fashioned but I didnt mind that. We were shown the hot tub and round the inside of the cabin. After heading out for the day we came back excited to get into the hot tub and relax - however this did not happen as it was freezing cold!! After fiddling round with the buttons and increasing the temperature we were hopeful that on our return from the pub the tub would be hot enough to get in. So, thinking there was a pub within 1 1/2 miles we started walking. It turns out the pub is a fairly long walk down a hill which means going home is a steep and long climb - not the best after a couple of drinks! When we got back from the pub to try - yet again - the hot tub, it was even colder. So we left it for the night! The next plan was to have a BBQ, however this wasnt possible with an empty gas cylinder! The next day I contacted the owner to explain the hot tub situation and she said she would go and check out the problems. We were already out for the day so expected a nice hot tub ready on our return - yet again to be disappointed. That evening I went to get a glass out of a cupboard, only for the sheet of glass that was the face of the cupboard to fall out and drop on to my feet, luckily without smashing! If a child had opened the cupboard or been stood next to me this could of been very dangerous! We went our 3rd day with no hot tub and on check out on the 4th day the owner mentioned that she had only gone to check the hot tub the day before we were due to leave and believed it was in working order - I do not understand how a cold hot tub can be described as "working". I was so excited to stay in this lodge and felt really disappointed and let down by a couple of things that could of been easily and promptly solved and made I break much more enjoyable!

The quiet environment. Good, scenic and the owner was a very polite person.
Mr Fenton

The location was perfect, just us and the scenery. A perfect getaway, but close enough to local villages and the coastline. A special 'thank you' to the owner for her warm and friendly welcome, beautiful flowers and delicious wine!

We have just come home from a week at Alpine Lodge and have had a lovely peaceful holiday. The views are wonderful from the lounge of the lodge and it makes an ideal base to travel to many places in North Wales. The lodge was spotless and the owner just could not do enough for us. Before we left we have already booked again for next year and would throughly recommend staying there. Our little bit of Heaven on Earth!

this was far by the best self catering place ever, clean, comfortable, nothing to much trouble , location just lovely. Although I didn't relise it was just so close to a farmers field that made hay, bit of a problem when one suffers from hay fever, but that was my problem and no-one elses.
Mrs Allott

Me and my partner stayed there over the summer and found both the location and accommodation fantastic. Beautiful view and well equipped, comfortable and cosy. We spent most evenings on the patio area cooking on the fantastic BBQ the cottage is equipped with. It was a peaceful retreat after a day exploring the local areas. Would highly recommend it and will be staying there again without a doubt.

The Lodge has been the perfect hide away to spend the festivities in the peace of the Welsh countryside. A perfect retreat with the added advantage of not being too far from the many nearby places to explore.

Mrs Coughlin

This was our second holiday at the lodge and it was just as good as last year.A wonderful host and made us feel so welcome.Nothing is too much trouble for her.The surrounding area is wonderful and the lodge is in an ideal location. We will certainly be visiting again next year and have recommended it to our friends.It is suitable for both young and old.
Mr Tasker
July 2007
The owner is an exceptional woman - nothing was too much trouble for her. The property was exceptional value for the money, we have been renting holiday accommodation for 40 years and we have never come across better value for what we have paid. Alpine Lodge itself, is a cosy well-maintained log cabin with very good facilities and stunning views. I would imagine that even in the depths of winter, the property is comfortable and warm as it boasts proper full central heating throughout.
Mr Mrs Dennis
