“Nice place, lovely hosts, we really enjoyed our stay and the lovely views.”

The only one thing missing was a pub nearby to walk to. We would definitely stay again.

- Mr Branford, November 2019
“Hosts were amazing.”

Beautiful cottage and loved the home made Welsh cakes. The location is also amazing.

- Mr Wingfield, October 2019
“A lovely cottage in a great location, with welcoming hosts!”

- Mr Fissasegola, September 2019
“We had a fantastic holiday.”

The cottage was in a great location, very clean and with everything we needed. The Welsh cakes on arrival were delicious and having milk in the fridge was very thoughtful. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

- Mrs Bryant, August 2019
“Lovely stay”

The cottage was well placed for Snowdonia attractions. We spent a lot of time particularly in the late afternoon at Betws-y-Coed which is just down the road and also explored the national park. The roads leading to the cottage are extermely narrow for the last mile or so, but we only encountered a few cars as the roads were very quiet, and after doing this once I had my husband driving as I found it too stressful! The cottage itself was small and basic, but had everything we needed for a short break as a family with 2 children and we all enjoyed our stay. There were several helpful books, guides and toys for the children which were all nice touches. I would have liked towels to be provided instead of taking our own but this is a minor point. The location is very quiet - for our preferences and for the entertainment of our children at the moment, I would probably stay more in the hustle and bustle of Betws-y-Coed if we holidayed in the region again. But for those who prefer a more secluded and quiet location which is still very close to all the attractions, it would be perfect.

“It was a beautiful place to stay, it is rural and definitely need a car as local shop is about 10-15 mins drive.”

- Miss Wiiliams, July 2019
“A great ideal cottage in a perfect, quiet, peaceful location.”

Hosts Kathy and John were welcoming friendly and very helpful. A great place to stay with lots to do. Would fully recommend.

- Mr Macnaught, May 2019
“Had a lovely break.”

Cottage comfy and hosts very welcoming

- Mrs Dearn, November 2018
“I am extremely disappointed that Sykes overcharged me so much for this holiday.”

The average weekly rates for that particular cottages was actually lower than we had paid for 3 nights! 324 for a week yet we were charged £330 for a weekend. This is unfair and extortionate and for that reason alone I would never use Sykes nor reccomend the company again.

- Mrs Rarity, September 2018
“Fantastic, great location and brilliant hosts.”

- Oneill, July 2018
“I have had many cottage holidays over the years - this must go to the top of my list!”

The cottage was full of character, very comfortable and clean and in a beautiful secluded location. The hosts were most welcoming and provided milk on arrival (most appreciated) together with homemade Welsh cakes that were so tasty I ordered more to take back home with me. Provided in the cottage were loads of useful information - books - leaflets etc. on things to do and walks to go on. Snowdonia is one of my favourite locations and finding this cottage has made my visit absolutely perfect. Needless to say, I will be booking again!

- Ms Charlton, May 2018
“Lovely accommodation in a beautiful away from it all setting.”

Just what we were looking for. Additional bonus is that it is 5mins away from Zip world. Great hosts who we met on arrival. Unfortunately there was no WiFi but it was a refreshing change!

- Mr Cranshaw-scott, April 2018
“Beautiful Stay”

We stayed over the Christmas period and it was amazing. Such a warm welcome from the owners, they greeted us as we arrived, and in the cottage had welcomed us with homemade Welsh cakes and mince pies (which were lovely) and a few other bits. The cottage is in a beautiful area with stunning views. The cottage itself was warm and cosy, very clean and comfortable. It has pretty much everything you need. Would definitely recommend this cottage, a 15min drive to Llanrwst, 10min drive to Betws y Coed, and 30mins to Llandudno. So for us a great location. Would definitely book again. Thank you!

“Warm Welcome”

Very comfortable, beautifully furnished cottage with kitchen full of useful extras. Owners are wonderful! Provided home baked Welsh cakes and home grown cucumbers! Will definitely visit again.

“Beautiful location & Perfect Cottage”

Have just returned from a long weekend staying in the Arfron cottage. We were two adults and an 11 year old. The cottage was an excellent size for us. Everything you could want is there. We are familiar with the local area as keen walkers. So knew where to go etc. But this is an ideal base for touring Snowdonia and Anglesey. The cottage was extremely clean and comfortable. Nice and warm with the central heating. Lots of storage for clothes etc. The setting of the 3 cottages is wonderful and only 10 minutes from Betws-Y-Coed. The owners, Kathy and John are nearby if you need anything. Lovely Welsh cakes on arrival! Our stay was too short and have just booked to go again, so highly recommended.

“Excellent base”

Stayed at The Arfron from 31st Aug-6th Sept, all previous reviews are true, this is a wonderful place to stay. Kathy & John are fantastic hosts welcoming on the Saturday & saying goodbye on the Thursday evening.We had the best weather you could expect for September,sunny & warm most days. The cottage is spacious for 2, might be a little cramped for 4 adults, 1 bedroom as bunk beds. There is plenty of storage space though & the kitchen is the best equipped we have stayed in. The lane leading to the cottage can be a bit daunting to some but its less than 1/2 mile long, the bonus being not much traffic takes this road so walking the dog is a treat, the views from the lanes are a treat. Excellent base for touring Snowdonia, most places can be reached within the hour, Betws-y-Coed, Capel Curig,Llangollen,Llandudno & many others. The Ponty Pair hotel in Betws-y-Coed does good beer & pub grub as does the Swallow Falls hotel. Will definitely be returning soon.

- EH-Halifax, September 2013
“Homely, comfortable cottage With friendly, helpful hosts.”

We were made most welcome and helped when we needed it.The surrounding area had plenty of places to explore or peaceful enough just to chill out.Lots of walks close by and central enough for beaches, rail trips and Snowdonia.We had a great holiday up in the mountains.

Lovely location in wonderful countryside, with beautiful views. Very comfortable cottage, well located for exploring. Owners helpful - made sure all was OK but not intrusive. Good walks from the door.

“Just perfect!”

A wonderfully relaxing week spent in a beautiful part of the world. Cottage was perfect, spotlessly clean with everything we needed, situated in a lovely location with beautiful views. Secluded, but still handy for the local village pub and Betws Y Coed with it's amenities and well marked walks etc. Owners very friendly and the Welsh cakes provided were the best I've tasted. Will definitely return.
