Superb stone cottage in the heart of Snowdonia
Set within the gorgeous village of Beddgelert, situated in the foothills of Snowdon, there can be no greater escape from the hurly burly of modern day life than this. The property is a classical stone built cottage which has been tastefully modernised within, providing modern comfortable accomodation including a log burning stove set within a feature fireplace. The cottage has been awarded a four star rating by the Welsh Tourist Board. The open plan lounge is complemented by a modern dining kitchen with modern electrical appliances including halogen hob. To the rear of the property is a spacious garden area that enjoys sunshine all day. Watch the sun set behind the mountains as you sip a nice aperitif, before enjoying a lovely barbecue.
The property benefits from two ample bedrooms. The front bedroom has bunk beds and one single bed. The beautifully decorated main bathroom has a bath with shower over, pedestal hand wash basin and wc. It is a lovely light airy room benefitting from a skylight. After a hard day's walking in the mountains you can take a nice long relaxing bath. The main bedroom at the rear of the property has a double bed with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom. The en-suite is finished to the same high standard as the main bathroom. With corner shower unit with electric shower, pedestal hand washbasin and wc. The property enjoys free mountain views to the rear and is less than a stone's throw away from the Glaslyn river which rapids its way through the village. The roar of the river is a relaxation inducing feature of this spectacular mountain location. The property benefits from economy 7 night storage heating and the radiators and hot water are heated by the log-burning stove.
Electriciy is included in the rental price.
There are a number of mountain walks some starting literally from the doorstep of the property. Lakeside and coastal walks are also within easy distance. There really is something for everyone in this idyllic part of the world.

Good location
We are very pleased with our stay. The house is clean, has a large kitchen, which is well equipped. There is a fridge and a dishwasher. The kitchen has a table with five chairs. There is a living room with a fireplace and a bookcase with various books for rainy days. The owner took care of a collection of brochures and guides from attractions throughout the area. The house is located in a charming village, in the heart of the mountains. An excellent location from which we have access to many places, that can be reached within 30 minutes to 1 hour. I highly recommend it.

lovely cottage
We stayed a week in this lovely cottage in Beddgelert, everything you need in this home from home, although there is a small extra charge for bedding and towels if you don't want to take your own. Parking is on street so didn't always get a space outside, the kitchen could do with blinds or curtains as you can straight in, and the outside seating area could be better but these are just minor things. Its a beautiful village made better by the super weather we had, and a great base for exploring this part of Wales.

7 Nights in Wales & only 30mins of Rain!
Beddgelert...What a fantastic location! The cottage is of a very good standard, clean & comfy. All rooms are well fitted out and of a good size. Basically every thing you need for a great time.
The rear garden is enclosed and our Dog (only a small fella) was safe enough but be aware there is a 'right of way' for 2 other cottages (via gates), once we knew, we made sure he wasnt a problem for the others, all was good.
There are plenty of stunning walks & views without even leaving the village. Eating & drinking out was easy & good (remember to book a table so your not disappointed) some also do take aways. Shop in the village was well stocked or a supermarket in Porthmadog (15 mins away).
The Road side parking was on the whole ok, safe enough but at times, like upon arrival we had to park a good distance from the cottage and carry our luggage back to the cottage which was a bit of a inconvenience, Any other time, not really a problem (the village & roads were there before cars were thought of).
Communication with the owner was very good & responses were fast & helpful.
So would we visit again?... definitely!
PS. Thanks for the week of 'Blue Sky's & Sunshine!!!!

Excellent stay
The property was fabulous. The pictures don’t do it justice and it feels more spacious inside than the pictures suggest. It’s perfectly located for all of the amenities in Beddgelert and the host was very helpful. Will hopefully return in the future.
