Mr Waterston
April 2019
A brilliant and magical cottage ! ! Thank you for making our Easter holiday so brilliant. The cottage was in a idilic country side setting on a working farm and spectacular views across the hills. The owners, Mr and Mrs Roberts, were super hosts with great advice for the local area and things to do; and our kids loved helping out with feeding the lambs and collecting eggs. We’ll return to continue exploring the area as there’s so much so do.

The lounge has been updated since the photos were taken (at time of writing), the finish was of a high standard and very comfortable during the week we spent there.. The hosts were friendly and only too happy to accommodate us. The kids really enjoyed seeing the working farm and the lambs in the fields. About a 15 minute drive from Betws-y-Coed, it was easy to get out to various places to visit for the day. It was the first week of April and I think we had every weather imaginable including snow! The location and views were stunning and the cottage thoroughly delivered on the rural Welsh holiday experience we envisioned.

This was our second visit to this property; we enjoyed it so much that we are planning to return again! It's a lovely cottage in beautiful, peaceful surroundings but also close to many and varied things to do and places to go. Marion and Trefor, who run the farm, live next door and are very helpful and friendly without being intrusive.

I stayed at the cottage with my wife, a friend and her 4 year old daughter. The kid loved the place because there are 'sheepys', 'lambies' and 'gooses' :-) The hosts are really lovely and helpful. They had given us some fresh eggs from the farm - a great touch. The location is superb - literally 10 min drive from Betws-y-coed. It is in the middle of a working farm and it's really quiet and beautiful. No doubt we'll go there again!
Mr Rodgers

Y Bwythyn is a wonderful spacious relaxing cottage, very comfortable, wonderful views. The owners are lovely people. Perfect for getting away from it all and close enough to some fantastic scenery and walks in Snowdonia. Would definitely recommend.

This was a wonderful cottage in a beautiful location - peaceful with spectacular views. We were made very welcome by the owners. It was a great base from which to explore such a lovely part of Wales.
Steve H
June 2014
As a base for Steve's 50th birthday week this was an absolute gem of a place. It's a great drive there & with the most stunning views of the area. Marian & Trefor, the owners, are really lovely hosts (the wine and the eggs were great touches). The property was perfect for us, the cottage has everything you might need & being on a working farm was great both seeing & listening to the animals. Sadly we could only stay 3 nights but still managed to climb Snowdon, visit the north coast and try out Zip World. It was an action packed time with a really comfortable & pleasant adopted home to return to. We've booked again for early Sept when this time our daughter can come with us as we know she'll absolutely love it. A wonderful few days.
Mrs Burt
May 2014
Utterly beautiful place to stay, simply cannot praise it enough. We were privileged to watch twin lambs being born and watch the lambs being hand fed. Perfect base for a holiday. We will most definitely go back; it was, in a word, perfect.
Mr Broadbent
September 2013
The location was lovely, the cottage was beautiful. Our hosts were very warm and welcoming, though never intrusive. The scenery and wildlife all around were a pleasure to see. We had a beautiful relaxing holiday. A great place to explore North Wales from.

Ms Cowen

The cottage was beautiful and spacious with lots of homely character and gorgeous views. We enjoyed a good few evenings bundled up on the sofas by the warmth of the electric fire!
Mr Willson
May 2013
The property was just how it looked on the website. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed, like a home from home. The owners were a lovely couple and nothing was too much trouble. The eggs left for us fresh from the farm were a lovely touch! It was a good base for going out and about and seeing all that the area has to offer.
Mr Coulson

The property is beautifully remodeled, nicely furnished, and spotlessly clean. The beds were very comfortable. The owners Trefor and Marian were friendly and helpful and started us out with a batch of fresh eggs. It's a little bit out of the way, but a beautiful & peaceful spot with easy day trips to sites like Caernarfon and Conwy castles, Portmeirion, Chester, Llandudno, Anglesey, etc. We enjoyed climbing Mt. Snowdon one day. Betws-y-Coed is nearby with many restaurants and other tourist facilities. There was no wi-fi internet available when we were there and cell coverage was spotty. Overall, highly recommended!
Mr Hardcastle

Lovely clean and comfortable cottage. The location of the property was great and the views were amazing!
Guest

The location was really very good and allowed us to see and experience a beautifull part of Wales. Cottage met all our needs and was very comfortable. Views were excellent.
Mr Moore
August 2011
After finding it particularly difficult to secure a suitable cottage at short notice you were able to find us an excellent property with good all round facilities on which the owners should be complemented. It was peaceful and tranquil in every way and the quietness was unbelievable in every way.
Mrs Peeters

We were made extremely welcome and felt warm and comfortable in the house. We had wonderful weather and enjoyed the spectacular views from the garden and windows of this beautiful barn conversion.
Simon Hayes
November 2010
The property was in a beautiful location on a delightful farm deep in the Welsh countryside. The farm owner was very friendly and welcoming and the cottage was very beautiful and clean and well kitted out. The only real complaint I would have is that I felt it was very cold due to the time of year, and even with the fire on the the living room I often felt cold. But this is probably due to living in a very warm house anyway and this did not detract from the overall enjoyment of the property. I would definitely stay here again, during the warmer months of the year.
Mr Hayes
September 2010
Very beautiful property in a lovely scenic and peaceful area. I would definitely visit this property again, although hopefully much earlier in the summer, when it would possibly be warmer and sunnier!
Mrs Billingham

The cottage was warm and welcoming and set on a peaceful working farm. Immacuately clean .Owners friendly and welcoming and very helpful . Was really touched as they had left us a bottle of champagne as it was our honeymoon. Was central location to visit surrounding attractions such as Snowdon, Llandudno and Betsy w Coed. We read the visitors book and there wasnt one negative remrk and plent would go back as we would ourselves.

Waking up in the morning and seeing the wonderful views of the countryside and the peace and quiet the property offers. Great weather. The wildlife was wonderful especially the red kites and the lapwings.The trip to the top of Mt Snowdon, a trip on the Welsh Highland Railway was great, I could go on and on. This was my first visit to Wales and I will come back soon.
