“Just Perfect!”

Such a wonderful cottage, with excellent facilities, in a superb location. Previous reviewers have said it all before but the location is perfect for a quiet and 'get away from it all' holiday yet a short walk into the village for great pubs, restaurants, coffee bars etc. Royal Oak Cottage provided us with an excellent base for exploring the beautiful area of Snowdonia. The property was presented well with 'extras'. The cream tea and bottle of 'New Year Bubbly' was a very kind and thoughtful touch from the owners. A comfy bed (always a tester when renting a holiday cottage!) with quality bedding and décor throughout. Overall one of the best rented properties we have stayed in. We will definitely return and shall thoroughly recommend this peace haven to others!

- Lincs_Lass_10, January 2016

Wow! Thank you for this incredible feedback, we couldn't be happier that you had such a fantastic holiday! To hear that you thought Royal Oak was "just perfect" is music to our ears and always what we strive for - we are so pleased you feel this way. It is also great to hear Royal Oak passed the comfy bed test, we'd agree this is incredibly important! We certainly hope to see you back for another visit very soon. Sykes owner relations

“IDYLLIC RETREAT”

This small cottage is delightful. Excellently equipped. Well maintained. 3 minutes walk from all shops, bars, amenities, including public transport. The owners are most welcoming and efficient, nothing being too much trouble. An added bonus is private, secluded parking in a busy village. Easy connectable wi-fi. We cannot recommend this charming cottage highly enough.

“Perfect Spot for a Perfect Stay”

Royal Oak Farm Cottage is all anyone could want in a vacation rental---clean, well furnished and maintained, convenient location. Wife & I stayed for two weeks and loved every minute. One of the walks leading to local scenic vistas ran past the front gate, others started only yards away. Restaurants and shops were within five minutes walk. Hosts were friendly but not at all intrusive. The train station is within 100 yards and the bus stop is adjacent to the train station. Village is busy during the day but very quiet at night so no problems with noise. We have rented vacation property from Hawaii to Europe and Royal Oak Farm Cottage is among the top five percent in quality and value.

- tenntraveller70, July 2014
Mr Bradley June 2014

Delightful cottage, well equipped. The owners were available to give advice on where to go when needed. Location in Betwsy is perfect as you feel tucked away next to the river and down a private road but is a minutes walk to shops restuarants etc. Some delightful low level walks you can do from the cottage include the miners bridge, and fairy glen.

This little cottage for 2 was perfect for our Xmas week of walking the hills and exploring the coast. It was very cosy, well heated, well appointed and quiet, yet located in the very middle of Betws y Coed. The hosts were exceptionally friendly and the welcoming 'pack' of wine and cake was delightful. Good parking, access to shops, restaurants etc made it a superb location. We actually ate in every night and found in the kitchen area everything we needed for cooking a Xmas meal! All in all, we could not fault it - and it was even very good value!

“Snowdonian Hideaway”

This idyllic property is nestled just off the main road of Betws y Coed. It is ideally located for local amenities of the picturesque town. More importantly for us though was the access to the Snowdonia National Park.

About the location

BETWS-Y-COED

Llanrwst 4 miles; Blaenau Ffestiniog 11 miles.

Betws-y-Coed, known as the Gateway to Snowdonia, is North Wales' most popular inland resort. Surrounded by dense woodland and magnificent mountain country, this is a haven for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. At Betws-y-Coed the River Conwy meets its three tributaries flowing from the west, and the beauty of the area is enhanced by cascading waterfalls, river pools and ancient bridges. Most famous of all are the magnificent Swallow Falls, situated where the Llugwy River hurls itself into a spectacular chasm. The village has shops, pubs, places to eat, miniature railway, a riverside golf course and the Tree Top Adventure High Ropes Course, and is home to The Snowdonia National Park Visitor Centre, as well as being the start of the beautiful Conwy Valley which leads to the coast and the lovely towns of Llandudno and Conwy.
