“Excellent stay.”

Made very welcome by our hosts.Milk in the fridge and a hospitality tray ready.

Made very welcome by our hosts.Milk in the fridge and a hospitality tray ready. For us the situation was convenient for touring the area. However,we were off the road and therefore extremely quiet. We look forward to returning.

“Home from home”

From the start the owners make you feel welcome. The cottage is warm, cosy, well lit and easy to heat. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and it feels roomy. It's so peaceful we felt like 4 nights just weren't enough. Very handily placed to get to Llanberis, Caernarfon, Bangor and Anglesey. Some very good local pubs and very easy to park in Llanberis for Snowdon. definitely going back!

“Very helpful hosts.”

Lovely comfortable property. Location was less rural than I'd realised as it was by a road - my fault completely. This meant it was easy to get around though. Really enjoyed our stay.

- Mr Hector, April 2019
“Excellent location very close to snowdon.”

Owners are lovely and very friendly. nice and quiet spot but handy for towns, car required.

“Perfect holiday for us, even the weather was good!”

The cottage was exactly what we were expecting, had everything we needed and the owner was very welcoming? It was in a great spot for exploring the area. Would definitely return.

“The accommodation is dark, lacking ventilation and both decoration, furniture and fittings are "tired".”

A refurbishment is urgently required.

- Mr Pennell, September 2018
“The cleanliness and comfort of this property was outstanding,every amenity you would want is included,all in all the perfect place to stay and explore North Wales,which is an exceptional place to take a holiday.”

A 5 star rating from Mr & Mrs Long.

- Mr Long, September 2017
“The only improvement I could suggest would be another stair rail to help those not so nimble access upstairs.”

Other than that the cottage was excellent. A bonus for us was the daily visit of the woodpeckers. All in all a great break.

“Lovely place to stay”

We loved staying in Fron Goed cottage, even tho it was set back off the road we found it easily, there was parking for both our cars, we took my elderly mother with us so having the downstairs bedroom was great for her and also the bathroom being downstairs! I would say you'd definitely need a car to stay because it's a little bit out but we found most places to visit were within a 15 minute drive, the owners were very friendly

“cosy cottage”

We loved this place. As soon as we arrived we were welcomed by the owner and shown around. beautiful gardens to relax in and nice and cosy cottage, nice and clean also had everything you need. We had fresh milk left for us and there were laundry facilities that we could use. It was central to all the place's we wanted to visit in north wales.

“Warm and Cosey”

Despite the weather on our holiday being somewhat unpredictable and raining quite a lot, the moment we arrived at Fron Goed, we knew we had a warm, clean and comfortable place to stay. The owners of the cottage were extremely friendly and helpful and it was clear that they looked after the cottage. The only two issues we had, one of which probably would not have reveal itself had the weather not rained at all, were a leak in the conservatory at the front of the cottage and the smoothness of the stairs up to the second bedroom that were quite slippery if you were not barefoot or wearing shoes. Overall, we had an excellent stay in the cottage and send our thanks.

- Jamie I, May 2015
“A base to explore from”

Fron Goed was all I hoped it would be. It was beautifully presented, clean and comfortable, and completely catered for all our holiday needs. As a centre, it proved to be very good, with easy access to Anglesey, the west coast, and the mountains. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a base in the countryside.

“wet but enjoyable”

we stayed at FronGoed late September,The accomdation was very clean and everything you could need is in the cottage.As we was in late season,we did not have any bother with the main road as some reports said The owners were very helpful and pleasant,and the cottage was very warm .

“Cosy base, perfect for exploring the area.”

Fron Goed is a lovely cosy cottage, very well presented and in beautiful gardens. We were meet by the owners who were very welcoming . It is perfectly located for exploring the area, we visited castles and beaches, country parks and towns. We also spent time in the garden and the cottage, Caernarfon is only 20 minutes drive where there are supermarkets and places to eat out, you do need a car though, you can't really walk anywhere. We found the cottage a great size for us and our 1 year old as she could safely play in the main living area although the open staircase could be an issue for some. The cottage is on a main road and although set back there is no gate so you do have to be careful when outside with young children. We had a brilliant holiday and would definately go back.

“Lovely cottage in nice countryside”

Beautiful comfortable cottage with a lovely garden. In the house and conservatory it was quiet and peaceful,however although the cottage is set back from the road it is a very busy a road and it was too noisy to sit in the garden. Otherwise a lovely location. Everything we needed and more were in the house and the family who own it were very friendly and accomodating.

About the location

DEINIOLEN

Llanberis 4 miles; Caernarfon 8 miles; Bangor 8 miles.

The village of Deiniolen, housing a village pub and shop, is 4 miles north of Llanberis, on the border of the Snowdonia National Park, making it an ideal base to explore the National Park. The Llanberis Railway runs nearby along the banks of Lake Padarn, whilst the ruins of Dolbadarn Castle are 2 miles away, or visit Ceunant Mawr, a cascading waterfall just outside Llanberis. Local walks lead to the Marchlyn Mawr Reservoir on the northern slopes of Elidir Fawr. Llanberis is 4 miles away and is flanked by two lakes, Llyn Padarn and Llyn Peris and is one of the most popular mountain tourist centres in the Snowdonia National Park. In fact, Llanberis is something of a “mecca” for walkers and climbers, being the starting point for the ascent of Snowdon - the highest mountain in England and Wales. The ascent can be made either by train, on the Snowdon Mountain Railway, or on foot along one of the many routes to the summit. Each year, major racing events attract thousands to the area: The fast Snowdon Race to the summit, held in July every year and The Snowdonia Marathon, held in October - a gruelling 26 mile course that starts and finishes in Llanberis, circumnavigating the Snowdon Massif. Within Llanberis itself there are excellent places to eat and drink and a great choice of shopping. On the coast is Caernarfon with its magnificent castle and town walls and close by are National Trust properties at Penrhyn and Plas Newydd.
