“Melin Bach cottage exceeded all of our expectations and more.”

The cottage is newly renovated so has all the modern amenities you could want, but keeps the charm in bucket loads. It was so nice to go on long walks in the mountains and return home to the huge roaring log fire. ...

The cottage is newly renovated so has all the modern amenities you could want, but keeps the charm in bucket loads. It was so nice to go on long walks in the mountains and return home to the huge roaring log fire. Caroline and Paul could not have been more helpful and did everything they could to make our stay as comfortable as possible. They even leant us a lasagne dish! If you like mountains, you have to only look out the window to be surrounded on all sides by the snowdonia countryside. Peacefull and tranquil but at the same time in a perfect location to explore the Snowdonia area. We will be back! David and Charlotte

“I had a wonderful weeks holiday at this beautiful cottage.”

It is in a lovely & peaceful location but with easy access to so many things to do in this part of the world. I took my dog who loved the outside space. The cottage was really cosy, clean and comfortable and Paul & Caroline were great hosts. I would definitely recommend this cottage and hope to go back again.

“We had a wonderful holiday and would highly recommend the property, it was in such a beautiful loacation away from it all.”

Both Paul and Caroline were so helpful and friendly, we would definitely go back and stay again. I would also recommend the staff at Sykes cottages, after initially booking with a different company and arriving at our accomadation dissapointed we had nowhere to stay, I phoned Sykes up and the lady(Kate I think) sorted everything out, we also spoke to other lady who was also so friendly and helpfully, again I would book through this company again.
