"Weather horrendous but the cottage more than made up for the hea"

Evreything we got to directions and instructions what to do and see were excellent and the cottage was very cosy and the wet weather made it a very welcome home feel and we settled very quickly. The location was superb and very easy to get to other attractions and local shops near by for the basics was really good.The cottage was the best fitted out kitchen with evrey utensil you could wish for we have ever stayed in and the rooms were very cosy and clean.On our stay we even met the owners who were staying next door but one and they were a great couple and nmade us feel very welcome indeed.

Coopers, Chesterfield Derbyshire, December 2009

Location: Manod

Blaenau Ffestiniog 1.5 miles; Porthmadog 10 miles; Betws-y-Coed 13 miles.

Manod is situated between the impressive Manod and Moelwyn mountains near the centre of Snowdonia National Park. Only 1.5 miles away is Blaenau Ffestiniog, once the capital of slate quarrying and in the 18th Century known as the "City of Slate". The town stands in an elevated, natural bowl amidst this mountainous region, has a good variety of shops and pubs, but is best known for its tourist attractions. One of the old quarries is now the renowned Llechwedd Slate Cavern, or there is the magnificent hydroelectric power station and famous narrow gauge Ffestiniog Railway providing wonderful trips through spectacular countryside. Enjoy superb walks and bike trails, good climbing at the Plas y Brenin National Mountain Centre, wonderful sandy beaches, great fishing or golf, or visit delightful Betws-y-Coed, the Italianate Village at Portmeirion or Bala, with its renowned white-water rafting opportunities.
