  • "Absolutely fantastic stay."

    Great communication and friendly hosts. The directions were very helpful too. The house was spotless and comfortable, and being able to use the safety gate for our newly cruising infant was a God send. Fantastic location, quiet and neighbours were also friendly. Honestly, could not fault a single thing. We loved our time here.

  • "We had a great week, the property is very comfortable and is in a quiet and relaxing location, away from the crowded parts of Snowdonia."

    The view from the front door is fabulous. The only improvement we would suggest relate to small things - i.e. a non-slip mat for the bath, some new pans, a larger and more modern microwave, and some extra supplies of cleaning materials in the kitchen. Aside from the above suggestions, I would thoroughly recommend the property, especially for anyone wanting a quiet place to stay and from where to enjoy Snowdonia and N. Wales, but away from all the busier locations.

  • "Having used Sykes cottages for many years I can say without doubt this is the best cottage I have stayed in to date."

    Beautifully decorated,very comfortable all amenities good although try as we might we could not ignite the hob rings but nothing a match wouldn't sort. Nice to be able to relax in the back yard and have friendly chat with chap next door,I tried to do some tidying in garden and if there was a trowel n gloves would have dug brambles up that were overrunning other plants. We were so lucky with a fantastic weeks weather and nice to know we were returning to comfortable digs every night.

    We wanted to explore the area and have somewhere to settle in the evenings. This cottage is so comfortable that we loved staying there. The welcome gifts were lovely and the hosts did everything to make us feel at home - from fitting a stairgate to letting us check in early. I can't recommend this cottage enough.

    Beautiful cottage in beautiful surroundings Very comfortable and warm If I am going to find a negative it’s just the access road to the cottage which is extremely narrow Anyone with a larger vehicle would probably not get round the corner I think this should be made clearer on the description of the cottage But overall a very pleasant stay x

    Thank you for your feedback and I am glad you enjoyed your stay. The owners do have large vehicles themselves but acknowledge the turn can be a bit tight for those perhaps not used to it so we have added a note to this effect. Thanks again for your comments. Property Owner

    The listing was accurate and honest and the accommodation was even better than the photos implied! I was a bit unsure of the location at the time of booking as we were arriving by train to Bangor station and I was concerned whether we'd be limited as to where we could go but I was pleasantly surprised as there was a regular bus service that was exceptionally reliable. That said, I would take a car next time as we would have liked to explored more rural areas than we were able to but we had no problems in reaching the seaside towns of Llandudno and Colwyn Bay as well as getting to Canaerfon to pick up the West Highland Railway which took us through Snowdonia which was absolutely beautiful.

About the location

BETHESDA

Bangor 6 miles; Caernarfon 10 miles.

Bethesda is a small town settled beside the River Ogwen in North Wales. Situated on the A5 between Bangor and the Snowdonia National Park, Bethesda was once a busy slate quarrying town and nowadays offers a good selection of shops and other amenities, in particular a number of chapels and pubs. The beautiful mountainous scenery of Snowdonia borders Bethesda, with the Lôn Las Ogwen cycling and walking paths skirting past. For the more adventurous, why not visit Zip World in Bethesda which is known for having Europe’s fastest and longest zip line. Capel Curig, just ten miles away, is a popular centre for walking, climbing and mountain biking, whilst Llanberis is situated at the foot of Mount Snowdon and is home to the Snowdon Mountain Railway and the National Slate Museum. Cwm Idwal is also a wonderful spot to visit, situated in northern Snowdonia – Darwin came to study the area and found tiny fossils of oceanic plant life and sea creatures in the boulders and rocks. The coastal town of Caernarfon is just a short drive away as is the beautiful Isle of Anglesey and the Anglesey Coastal Path. Visitors to the area can also explore the castles of Caernarfon and Beaumaris and the NT stately homes of Penrhyn Castle and Plas Newydd Country House and Gardens. Spend the day at one of the many traditional seaside resorts, or discover the isolated, hidden beaches on Anglesey, much of which is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With spectacular scenery on the doorstep, wonderful wildlife with buzzards soaring overhead and the occasional Peregrine Falcon to be seen, and many exciting outdoor adventures to discover nearby, Bethesda is superbly located for enjoying both the coast and the countryside of stunning North Wales.
