“Lovely cottage, however after emailing owner to say we won’t be arriving till 7pm, we arrived to a very dark cold cottage.”

There was no fire laid ready and unfortunately not even an kindling to lay the fire. It clearly stated in the book that a fire would be laid ready. The shower was luke warm and quite dated. Our stay was during storm Dennis which made it worse that we had a poor shower.

“Lovely cosy cottage, really well placed for the areas we wanted to visit, lovely and quiet.”

Great wood burner, whole cottage warm with the additional heaters which after a cold day in the mountains is lovely in the evenings. Cottage has everything you need for a holiday. My only feedback would be that the shower could do with an update, and better bed linen and a good pair of black out curtains in the main bedroom would make this place really lovely. Would definetly book again. Loved it.

“Just back from a fabulous and very enjoyable break to this cottage.”

Quaint & Quiet, the perfect place for a break in region. Within 30 minutes roughly from Conwy town and Llandudno promenade and roughly the same from the Blaenau Ffestiniog railway. Everything you need is here, 2 bedroom, well equipped kitchen, open fire (with provided first night supply of wood) and even Tea, Coffee and cake on the table for your arrival (Milk in the fridge also in case you were wondering!) Some say the parking is tight, got the Range Rover in every night without any issues so perhaps more of a confidence/ability issue as you need to parallel park to get it in ;-) 2 kids were delighted looking up out the skylight window at the stars at night and with the TV, DVD with a DVD collection, family board games, books and dominos I am sure they would have been well entertained had the weather been bad,,,,,, luckily it wasn't as we had ZipWorld booked just up the road! Looking for a great close place to eat and drink (with a designated driver) Y Stablau (https://www.ystablau.com/) next to the Royal Oak Hotel in the centre of Betws y Coed is to be recommended, no booking required!! We would recommend this to anybody with or without kids and we look forward to seeing our next holiday schedule so we can book again ! Thankyou Jane, it was a pleasure to stay.

“The cottage is in great little village with pub and shop.”

Near to activities. We did Go Below and zipwire. Lots of walks. Was a good base. The lounge is comfortable with wood burner and kitchen was clean with great range cooker. Only thing that could be improved was the bathroom. Shower could do with an update.

“Vehicular access was a little difficult as was parking.”

Looking at the guest book we may have been the first visitors for a couple of months. Welcome pack was all good but it did feel as though it had been empty for the couple of months.
Mr Turner June 2019

“Very nice comfortable cottage in a very good location , you are close to Betws y coed and a lot of the area attractions.”
Mrs Johnson-reynolds May 2019

“Lovely cottage.”

In a quiet area. Owner was very helpful. Cottage Easy to clean with Lovely slate flooring, lovely fireplace. Nice to have milk, tea, coffee, Welsh cakes on arrival. Well equipped kitchen Only thing, the Main bed, I found too hard, uncomfortable, but, it may be just a matter of preference, the bedding and curtains could do with replacing with Fresher looking ones. Children said their beds were very comfortable. Overall a lovely cottage. Would stay again.

“Cottage was very well equipped location was beautiful but couldn't really ...”

Cottage was very well equipped location was beautiful but couldn't really set out on a walk from doorstep as described as you would have to be walking on roads but we drove to betws y coed and done various walks from there and ate out there also , fantastic place
Mrs Ishaq August 2018

“Lovely well stocked cottage, clean & ideal location for touring the Snowdonia National Park, quick 25min drive to Snowdon.”

..loved the log burner after our wet & windy trek up Snowdon
Mr Pellett July 2018

“We’ve had a lovely week in a beautiful part of the country.”

The cottage is really sweet, very quiet and has superb views. Garden patio was a little overgrown and the interior could do with a little bit of a make over.
Mr Hodges June 2018

“The cottage was clean and comfortable.”

The garden needed attention and the track to the car parking space needed repair and the trees needed cutting back.The parking experience was such that I would rebook this cottage.
Mrs Hudson March 2018

“This was our second stay in this beautiful cottage, this time for a week instead of a weekend, it is cosy, comfortable and clean and has everything that you need for an enjoyable stay.”

We love the log burner after a day walking in the beautiful hills and mountains. The scenery around the cottage is breathtaking too and we enjoyed walking our dog around the local lanes. There is a small garden if you want to sit in the sun or have a barbecue. Although there is only one parking space it was ample size for our Volkswagen Passat Estate car, our son stayed a few days and brought his small car and parked it down the lane out of the way. We would highly recommend this cottage and will definitely use it again as it is situated in an ideal location to access all the beautiful and interesting locations in Wales. We visited Llangollen, Llanberis, Llandudno, Conwy, Criccieth Beach and Borth-y-best Beach, Betts-y-coed, Beddgelert and many more beautiful places. 10/10 rating.

About the location

PENMACHNO

Betws-y-Coed 4 miles.

The small, peaceful village of Penmachno is situated in the beautiful Machno Valley, just 4 miles from the popular town of Betws-y-Coed. Surrounded by woodland, magnificent mountains and flowing rivers, the whole area is a haven for walkers, birdwatchers, mountain bikers and climbers, whilst Betws-y-Coed itself offers a good range of shops, pubs and cafes. Here the River Conwy meets its three tributaries, creating a host of cascading waterfalls, river pools and ancient bridges throughout the surrounding countryside, the most famous of which is the magnificent waterfall at Swallow Falls, situated where the River Llugwy meets with a spectacular chasm, creating a sight not to be missed! The beautiful Conwy Falls are also well worth a visit and are situated in the Machno Valley. With all of Snowdonia to explore and North Wales' Heritage Coastlines also within easy reach, this beautiful location has plenty to offer at any time of year.
