  • "Had the best weekend away."

    Cottage was absolutely stunning so we stayed in the whole time we was there. Beds were super comfy and it was lovely sitting next to the log burning fire. Everything we needed was there and Rich was very welcoming when we arrived. We would definitely go back.

    We had the most perfect stay in Pant Yr Iwrch and really didn’t want to leave. The cottage itself is very nice and traditionally done up but with all the mod cons - we appreciated the waterfall shower after a long walk! If you like amazing scenery and beautiful walks then this is the place for you. Host Richard is also very helpful and offered lots of great recommendations. We will be back!

  • "Couldn't regulate heating system as tjwrw was NO thermostat to alter, even though local instructions said there was one in the kitchen, the place needed a good dust and polish, the bins were full of recycling in the kitchen, and NoT emptied from previous occupants."

    There was NO suitable outside lighting and it was very dark when we came back from our trips. To negotiate the gate and pathway caused some concern as I'm disabled with knee issues... overall a quaint cottage that could do with some tlc and attention to cleaning the rooms and bathrooms..facilities were old and outdated.

  • "Enjoyed our stay, it had all we needed to stay there ."

    The dogs were welcomed ,it was great for them with an enclosed garden. It was a long way up a single track which was closed for road works so we had to find another way , that wasn't a big deal but a little un nerving . If I have a tiny criticism it would be the cobwebs and dust on the beems. Nice host lovely fella , greeted us with a smile .

    Ideal location for both Eryri National Park and coast. In a very peaceful location. The host who lives locally was such a nice friendly guy who was available if you needed him.

    We had a problem finding the cottage but locals very helpful. Driving up the single track road was a bit hairy but once at the cottage you are rewarded with the most amazing views. We unfortunately only had one night from our weeks holiday, we had to return home urgently.

  • "We loved our stay in Pant Yr Iwrch - it was such a relaxing & peaceful place to escape to."

    The cottage has been very thoughtfully renovated with great facilities. It was refreshing not having reams of information to read through on arrival & were able to discover what we needed when we needed it very easily - the lights in the old bread oven were a nice surprise a few days in! We soon got used to driving on the narrow roads to the cottage & loved the walk up to the waterfall suggested by Ben. We’d previously stayed nearby so it was nice to have some local insight to what was worth doing in the area other than the usual activities. Sandra & Ben were very informative & welcoming and really made us feel at ease. Thanks for a lovely week!

    Directions in the description could be more detailed if you dont have satnav. Very nice area, garden and views. Quite rustic accommodation and would be enhanced by updating the kitchen especially when you have 6 people to feed. Beds were very comfortable and linen were very good quality. Bathroom was good. Smell of oil in the garden depending on the wind direction and sooty smell in the lounge.

    The place has got tons of character, amazing furniture, and spectacular views. All the things N-Wales is famous for are within close reach (the mines, the beaches, the mountains), and the routes to get you there are a delight to drive.

    We did get lost locating the cottage, however having the extra Google link, description and photo did help up to finally locate the cottage. On arrival it was homely, warm with extra touches like dog treats for our dog. Having a fire really made the cottage. It brought back past memories from being younger. Suggested improvements: a cooker range, a door curtain - it got a bit draughty, and maybe lowering the bed. Overall a pleasant start to our Christmas. Thank you.

    Really enjoyed our time there so thank you. Only thing I would say is sometimes the cleaning needed a bit more attention to detail for example a lot of cobwebs around on the door frames, on the ceilings in the big bedroom etc and there was sweets and bits under the sofa cushions but otherwise a perfect place to stay if you want a remote holiday let it’s lots of walks on the doorstep.

The property

This rustic, semi-detached farmhouse lies in peaceful grounds within the hamlet of Llanbedr-y-Cennin, in the scenic Conwy Valley on the edge of the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park.

Boasting a traditional décor, this heart-warming retreat welcomes families and friends looking to escape everyday life and see what North Wales has to offer.

Enter into the lounge where a huge inglenook fireplace takes centre stage, housing an alluring woodburning stove which you curl up next to during the brisk winter months, plus a sofa and a Smart TV for entertainment.

Move into the farmhouse style kitchen/diner, complete with feature stone wall and bespoke wooden structures, this is a lovely space to prepare your meals.

As you being to yawn, whisk yourself off upstairs to the bedrooms, comprising of a bunk room and two doubles with high ceilings and exposed joists in the roofing, giving it a real sense of character.

The bathroom offers a welcome change of modernity with sleek tiling and a bath with rainfall shower over, so you can prepare for the day in style.

To the exterior of Pant Yr Iwrch is a landscaped and elevated garden, which was once massively overgrown, but now offers a lovely space with a structured seating area where views of the Eryri (Snowdonia) Mountain Range can be seen.

There are some wonderful walks from the cottage and the North Wales coastline is just a short drive away, together with many biking trails and centres which are all within easy reach of the property.

Just down the road lies Surf Snowdonia, the first artificial wave lagoon of its kind in Wales, while a little further afield in Betsw-y-Coed lies the popular slate caverns, housing the world-first underground trampoline park, along with Zip World Titan, which spans across 1080m from half the height of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), so there is really something for everyone in this location!

Less than a 15 minute drive will bring you to Conwy, home to the famous Conwy Castle, a pretty harbour, as well as many fabulous shops and restaurants.

For a quintessential day on the coast, visit the seaside town of Llandudno where you can stroll the length of the promenade, catch a Punch and Judy show, or enjoy a wealth of family attractions on the amusement pier.
