Tranquil base to explore Eryri.

Had a lovely late September stay. The cottage was cosy and had everything we needed for our little family break away to explore Eryri. Parking outside the cottage was never an issue and with the heart of the village just a few minutes walk down the road, the location next to the gently flowing river Colwyn was tranquil. Thank you Lynn for being a great host.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful village

Simple but well appointed, clean cottage perfect for a family of 4. The river behind the property was a lovely feature and a 5 minute walk into the village for the shop, coffee shop or ice cream. Great location to explore snowdon or lots of the surrounding Moel’s, abergaslyn falls is a lovely walk.

Beautiful cottage in perfect location

We had a fantastic stay at Rhiwlas. The cottage was immaculately presented and thoughtfully equipped, and the location on the banks of the River Colwyn is stunning - lovely to sit out on the terrace for breakfast or an evening drink. Lynn is an excellent host and has clearly thought of every last detail. We look forward to retuning next year.

Very cool place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay, the river is your backyard and we slept with the windows open at night to listen to the nature. Location is fantastic, it was quiet, clean and nicely appointed. Lynn was an excellent host. I would definitely stay here again on our next adventure to north Wales.

We had a great long weekend here and it was perfect. The cottage is lovely, so clean, comfortable and well equipped. The terrace is a real treat. The village is lovely too, lots of choices for eating and drinking, we could have happily stayed much longer and would love to come back one day.

Beddgelert cottage

Beddgelert is the prettiest village in north Wales, and this property is beautifully located along one of the rivers. We were very pleased with the rental, and Beddgelert made a perfect base for hill walking. Several hikes started out our front door. The electric charging for our rental car was also conveniently located <1 mile up the road. Highly recommended.

Beautiful cottage in Beddgelert

We used this as a base for doing the zip world adventures which are approx 40 mins drive away. The cottage is fantastic and so well equipped, extremely clean and in such a stunning location, right on the river. The split level outside area at the back of the property is lovely. This property is also dog friendly. Overall a brilliant place, we had the best time!
