• "Wow! What Beautiful views!"

  I loved waking up in the morning and opening the blinds to see the sheep and lambs in the field opposite. This lovely little cottage has everything you could ask for, the bed is super comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked! The location is out of the way of all the little towns, but is a small drive to the nearest town if you’ve forgotten anything! Angela the owner was so helpful if we needed anything only a message away! Thank you for a lovely stay at Ael Y Bryn

  Thanks Ashleigh for such lovely feedback. I’m so glad you had a great break at Ael y Bryn and a wonderful time exploring the area. Property Owner

• "This is a fantastic little cottage, perfect location for walking in Snowdonia."

  Well equipped with everything you need for a self catering getaway. We stayed 2 nights and it was perfect. After walking up cad Idris the hot tub was a welcome. Angela has refurbished the cottage perfectly. I've already shared this amongst my friends and I'm sure they will be booking soon.

  Thanks for the great feedback Catherine and thanks for sharing with your friends and family that’s brilliant. I actually do a minimum of a 3 night stay but I was able to accommodate the change over with your booking so just a note to anyone wanting a 2 night stay please check with Sykes first. If I can accommodate it I will. Property Owner

• "This place is an incredible find."

  Just on the outskirts of Llan Ffestiniog, this is located far enough out that it feels remote and private, but close enough to be able to walk to the local shops and pub. It's easy to reach Porthmadog in about 15 mins as well. As soon as we stepped in, it felt like home. It was cosy with homely touches everywhere. You can tell the owner really cares. There was a book left with all the useful information and where to find certain things, a FULLY equipped kitchen, a little goody box too. The bed was amazing and some of the best sleep I've had in a while. We've been in touch with the owner since we've left, but she is easily reachable should you need anything during your stay. We will definitely be booking to come back.

  Thankyou so much for this lovely feedback and appreciation for the hard work that goes into the cottage. I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return. Property Owner

• "Sykes review."

  ?? Thank you again, Angela, for such a wonderful stay at Ael Y Bryn. The cottage is everything you need....warm, cozy, very comfortable, fully kitted out kitchen, great views and a super location with log burner and hot tub for some lovely evenings by the fire or out under the stars. Blessed with a pretty much dry week, we had some wonderful walks and great meals in local pubs and restaurants. Lovely crisp snow on a couple of mornings added to the stay. So thanks again, and for anyone reading this, I wouldn't hesitate to book again. Alan & Jade

  Thankyou Alan & Jade for such lovely feedback. I genuinely appreciate it and so glad you enjoyed your stay. Look forward to your return. Property Owner

  We have just arrived home from the beautiful Ael Y Bryn. I cannot recommend this beautiful cottage enough. It’s in a perfect location for walks, local shops, a pub & it’s roughly a 30 minute drive if you wanted to climb Snowdon. The cottage had everything we wanted & more. It was clean, the log burner was amazing, enclosed garden for our dog & the hot tub was perfect from after a long day out hiking. The owner is lovely she gave us the biggest warm welcome & the views are perfect. Will defiantly be coming back 10/10 !!

  Thankyou James for such lovely feedback! I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay at Ael y Bryn and will be back!!! Looking forward to welcoming you both and the lovely waffle again! Property Owner

• "Beautiful holiday cottage."

  Exceptionally clean with everything you need. The views from the bedroom window are stunning and all you can hear outside are the sheep and running water from the hillside. Bed is huge and very comfortable. Log burner (wood, kindling, firelighters provided) is lovely for cosy evenings in. Hot tub is amazing with lights changing the water different colours and has waterfall feature. Was so wonderfully relaxing just looking up at the stars. There was a lovely welcome pack and message from Angela the owner (who had messaged us previously to see if we wanted Christmas decorations left up or took down which was nice of her to ask us).Kitchen very well equipped, bathroom lovely too. Obviously being so rural there are no takeaways that deliver that we could find, so just bear that in mind if you are hoping to call for a takeaway to be delivered but they are not far in the car to collect as was the big co-op and Spar. We took our little dog and there was a bed provided, poo bags, bowls, and treats etc we had brought our own but we didn't need to (you could tell the owners are dog lovers) . Rightly so dogs are not allowed on the bed. We took our dog out with us the whole time (so many places allow dogs) but if you have a dog who sneaks on the bed when you go out you would need to shut them in the kitchen as there is no way else of stopping them getting upstairs. We had the most amazing stay here, we slept better than we had in years and we really didn't want to leave. Feel totally recharged and would come back again in a heart beat.

  Thankyou Clare for such positive comprehensive feedback. A lovely review thanks and greatly appreciated. Looking forward to welcoming you back. Many thanks for booking. Property Owner

  .. What a slice of paradise! If your looking for a holiday or even a little weekend away, stop looking, stop scrolling and choose this gorgeous little cottage! Angela was such an accomodating host, giving us so many reccomendations of things to do or see whilst we were there, the cottage was beautifully clean and cosy! We had absolutely everything we needed! The hot tub was certainly an added bonus! We were so sad to leave, but already excited to come back. We also donated a jigsaw for the cottage, so if you stay here - please let us know how you get on. Thank you Angela, Ael Y Bryn was simply amazing

• "We really enjoyed our stay, making time for relaxing and visiting local attractions."

  The cottage was perfect with fantastic views. We loved how cosy it was as well as being really well equipped. There were some touches that really stood out for us such as the dog station, plenty of large fluffy towels & bathrobes and a personal welcome note and basket. You can tell that real thought has gone into making the cottage a lovely place to stay.

• "Finding such a nice place that accommodates dog is really hard to come by."

  The house itself and the location are beautiful, everything was catered for. The one small downside was that the chlorine in the hot tub seemed quite strong, but that’s just splitting hairs.

  Thanks for your feedback I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. The chlorine is a slow release system in the filter I will look into the settings. Thanks for letting me know. Property Owner

  A very comfortable and well equipped cottage with everything you need, the owner showing a lot of attention to detail – very impressive. It’s quiet, with lovely views. Easy car parking. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the area from there – lots to see and do, even in mixed weather. The hot tub after a day’s exploring was very welcome! Altogether a fabulous holiday base.

• "The cottage is perfect and it was finished for me by snow on the hills which made the views even more spectacular."

  There is a log burner which throws heat and flickering flames into the sitting room and gives such a joyful feeling to the place. The kitchen is equipped with everything anybody could want and overlooks a big back garden which looks up to the hills but also has a hot tub. I love that it was a slate miner’s which has been brought up to date with taste and colour. I felt as I think anybody would feel completely at home in its lovely atmosphere. Angela has got this right and I hope to go back again and again.
