    Short family getaway
    We enjoyed our short time in Dolwyddelan. The house had lots of room, and was in a great location to explore Snowdonia and other parts of Northern Wales.

    Lovely location
    It was a nice property in a great location lovely views on surroundings peaceful and relaxing. not too far from shops and some great drives to places in the Northern area. Yes it’s a great spot with lots of room but needs to be centered on basics It was cold and wet but no heating on we had to set the system. It was a bit too dusty even for an old building. Barely no toilet roll. No hand towels lists of to do’s Needs TLC and a bit of investment. In total great place but not great value

    Beautiful house, beautiful views, beautiful stay!
    This house was perfect for our two families. Our kids had so much fun on the piano and in the back garden, while we adults enjoyed the wonderful conservatory. Easy walk to the village, and to the waterfall and castle.

    Despite the weather we had a good time. The children enjoyed their first trip to Wales, the castles and countryside. We all loved the conservatory, what a view, even in the rain.

    Exceptional, peaceful, beautiful place
    What a wonderful place to sit and write music! It’s so rare to find accommodation with a piano, and to have those perfect views created great inspiration, through the rain and the sunshine. Close enough to the village to not feel isolated, but far enough away to not be disturbed, I’ll certainly return.

    Fantastic
    This was our second stay although the weather really wet we had a fantastic time. The grounds that the house are in are stunning with amazing views and the river that runs through is breathtaking. The owner is very helpful and we will be back, definitely. The conservatory is Fantastic if the weather is bad as it looks over the amazing hills and is really tranquil so relaxing.

    Peaceful pretty location close to village
    We had a lovely time in the gorgeous countryside as two families celebrating a 50th with a zipworld trip. The village is convenient but we had privacy. Communication was immediate when we were not given extra pull out bed sheets. We would highly recommend this property and would love to stay again. Field s and river were beautiful and the dog loved chasing the butterflies. We did not need a modern house; it was lovely as it is.
