Even the weather was good!

The location was great and the facilities were clean and comfortable - just as advertised. The hosts were friendly and helpful - allowing us to arrive a little early and providing valuable advice as to the best way to tackle Snowdon. Even the weather was good. We really enjoyed our weekend.

Great place for family trip up Snowdon

Just as expected from photos and description. Living, dining and sleeping spaces all perfectly reasonable for a group stay. Everything required for a stay in the Welsh countryside. Large kitchen and dining area great for family meals and games. If you want bells and whistles go to a hotel, if you want functional, homely, multi generational provision at a good cost, this place does the job. Would definitely return.

Be aware of the extra hidden cost ! never at other places before

We were looking for relaxing family holidays and saw good reviews for this place so decided to stay It look beautiful location and the host provided instructions in advance the impression was very well coming host it was really assuring but A Few issues I need to emphasis 1 This is very remote location nearest village shop is ~ 2miles away the kitchen is well equipped but the host don’t provide any basic starter kit (ex:Tea Coffee cream ) which you get at most of the places specially so remote 2. They don’t have proper internet or powerful wi-fi as result if you want to watch any programme on TV Netflix it take so much time to down load you have to wait in the middle of the programme you are watching 3. They charge for the electricity bill separate after your stay we were given a bill for £54 .00 for electricity for 4 night stay (we didn’t cook and styed mostly outdoor) 4. in the initial booking although the cleaning fees is included if you don’t clean a thing or two they charge extra (for ex they were no happy that one cereal bowl a coffee mug and greater was not washed ) Also they expect everything back to the place where it was before 5. There are instruction every where to follow ( forget that you are on holidays) 10 AM is the deadline to leave the place otherwise they will charge you extra We have travelled so much till now this was such a strict protocol to follow We were really happy for the rural quiet place huge for ourselves but there indoor games were for kids T/t table was removed during lock down as the host stated we really felt sorry for the loss these people may had during the lock-down We accepted that we needed to pay extra for the pet we had as we choose pet friendly accommodation also by mistake the wet Towel came with us we posted them back as they are charging substantial amount for missing /broken items be aware! (as the host responded that to buy anything they have to go to Bangoor the travel cost is also included I guess) In nutshell if you want to go away during Holiday and cook for 20-30 people and have special OCD to clean and tidy up then this is the place for you I don’t write bad review as I didn’t had any bad experience so far in fact I felt the host was friendly So just stating the Facts

Beautiful

Such a beautiful area with lots of hidden gems to discover on walks. Most activities that we did took between 30mins to a hour to get to. But the house so big and has everything you need. I know lots of things had to be removed and changed due to Covid but we adapted.

Perfect for family groups

We loved our stay here, it was ideal for us, a group of 3 families all with young children. They loved the bunk beds! It was warm and welcoming, the owners were brilliant at communicating before we arrived and made us feel right at home. The pool table/table tennis was great fun in the big kitchen diner. Co-op just up the road. Thank you for having us, we'd love to return !

Great large holiday cottage

This cottage is great for large groups. It is a little worn but that makes it great when visiting with children and also when returning covered in mud from walking. The cottage has everything you could need for a comfortable stay (except a full sized bath!) we would visit again. The owners were very helpful and communication was great.Thanks.

Walk up Snowdon

13 adults and 5 children had a wonderful time on their Snowdon trip. Hose wa amazing a provided everything we needed for our stay. Facilities in the kitchen were amazing. The family enjoyed the PS2 and the snooker table. The weather was excellent so we were able to enjoy a BBQ and Al Fresco dining!!! A lot of dog walking went on by the locals who were all friendly and stopped to chat. We can't thank Andrew and Deborah enough and all the family want to go back.

Lovely spacious property. Very clean and comfortable with great communal areas.

As a mixed age family group, the property was perfect for us. The bedrooms are large with plenty of storage space. The 4 bathrooms were all clean and well equipped. Entrance hall had lots of coat hooks and boot storage space. Upstairs the open plan kitchen/diner was huge and offered lovely views of Snowdon. The kitchen is amazingly well equipped with all the appliances and utensils you could need. The separate lounge had plenty of large comfy sofas. Everyone enjoyed using the pool table and the table tennis and there was a choice of other games too. We had a dog with us and the property is very dog friendly with two lovely walks from the door. We loved our stay there. Deb and Andy are really friendly and helpful and made us all feel very welcome. They have put a lot of thought into what guests might need and made it feel homely as well as functional. I would recommend Capel Tanrallt without hesitation and hope to return there someday!

A fantastic place for out large group of friends and family. Excellent facilities, beautiful setting

We had a wonderful weekend with 15 of us. The communal living space is great. The table tennis table and pool table are a real bonus. Deborah made the organisation and weekend very easy for us. She has made such an effort to make the bedrooms cosy. We all slept very well on the comfy beds and there are so many bathrooms there was never a need to wait. The kitchen has everything you need and the table would seat a party larger than ours. We hope to return to walk in the beautiful countryside in the summer. Thank you Deborah.

Great for groups. Perfect location for hiking!

Great place. Best description is Hostel. The accommodation is very practical for hikers and adventurers with an entrance to cater for for coats and boots. Ground level if returning wet and muddy is great as you can hop into ine of three showers to clean up and warm up. Upstairs there is a communal layout with cooking facilities which copes brilliantly with group cooking needs. A great base and communal accommodation environment. Our next walking weekend is booked.

Huge house perfect for our family Christmas gathering

The photos do not really do justice to the room sizes. This is not a posh get away it is an honest home from home. There was everything we needed including two Christmas trees, and although I took extra crockery for our Christmas lunch I really didn't need to. One thing I would recommend, if you are a big tea drinker then take your own mug, I thought they were small, although you can simply top up using one of the many tea pots there. It was a joy to cook for 12 using the kitchen, I felt spoilt having two range cookers. The pool/ping-pong table was a wonderful addition which kept the children and adults entertained for hours. The beds were comfortable and being an mixture of doubles, singles and bunks, it made sleeping arrangements very flexible. The views were wonderful and so many walks and yet to close to Caernarfon if you prefer to wander around towns and castles and great for exploring the North Wales coastline. Andy and Deb are wonderful friendly hosts, we did not need them but knew we could call on them at anytime if we needed to. Memories made...
