  The owners are extremely pleasant and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The little gated garden opposite the cottage is perfect for sitting and relaxing in to enjoy the beautiful and dramatic scenery which surrounds the cottage, we absolutely loved it just disappointed that we only booked 2 nights!

• "Lovely cottage in a beautiful location."

  The property was so well stocked with everything that we needed there. The owners were so lovely and welcoming. We didn't need anything but I have no doubt that both would go above and beyond to support and make sure your stay was perfect. The dogs very much enjoyed their holiday too and we loved nothing more than waking up on a morning and admiring the stunning views from the property. We will 100% be returning.

• "We absolutely loved it… beautiful cottage in the most stunning place."

  Despite it being high up. It’s soo easy to get to places (by car). The hosts are wonderful and it feels like a home away from home. Without a doubt the best place we have stayed. We are currently looking to book back in.

  Welcoming arrival with little homely comforts such as Welsh cakes and fresh milk in the fridge. A true home from home. A short journey to Snowdonia and a 20 min journey to zipworld. Exceptional hosts, we hope to come back for more adventures soon. A holiday my young family will cherish

  The owners are great, although we didn't chat to them personally, but very attentive and around if needed. If you have dogs, it's great as loads of walks. The location is great as virtually all attractions i cluding beaches are no more than 30 mins drive away.

• "Had a great holiday in Marchlyn thanks to Sharon and Murray for exceptional hospitality and letting us see all the horses."

  Great remote, quiet location - ideal for relaxation but close enough to loads of attractions and amenities. Shop and ATM in the village and a very local Welsh pub that we thoroughly enjoyed visiting on night (drinks only). Great local characters. Beautiful scenery all around and a very clean and well presented accommodation. Excellent

  It was beautifully decorated, clean and tidy. The kitchen has everything you would need. A lovely added touch with a pint of milk and bottle of wine. The beds were so comfortable, we all slept so well. It was home from home. The scenery from the cottage was breath taking, so beautiful and quite. We throughly enjoyed our stay and we were all sad to leave. I would definitely love to return. Highly recommend, this is a 5* accommodation without a doubt.

• "A beautiful, clean house with everything we needed for our family holiday."

  A lovely quiet location, perfect for exploring the mountains and a walk to Llanberis from the doorstep. Thank you for the milk and wine on arrival! The only negative point was that I wouldn't really describe it as having a private enclosed patio as the patio area is across the gravel drive and has gaps in the fence to the field with sheep in it. This wasn't an issue for us as our dog was not bothered about going outside as we exercised him so much! But for those who would like to just open the door to let the dog out it might be a problem.

  The ponies and foals were amazing to see everyday, the kids loved them . Very friendly and helpful hosts on site.A great location for getting about for day trips, plenty to do in the area. We would definitely stay here again, we were sad to leave after a fantastic week’s holiday.

  Hi Victoria, hope you and your family are keeping well. Thank you for your lovely comments and im so happy you all had a lovely holiday in our cottage. I am a little taken back with the score of 25 out of a 100? I wondered if this was a mistake as it is the worst score we've ever had!, and has decimated our overall score. If you feel it is justified, could you explain why so that i can try to remedy and improve things. Many thanks Regards Sharon Property Owner

• "A fantastic well presented and comfy cottage."

  Loads of room. A few finer touches could be improved I.e. the baby gate was loose, loose curtain holder and the toilet brush snapped, but other then tiny things it was amazing. Amazing location and quiet with helpful and friendly owners. Even had cava and milk on arrival. Would definitely stay again.

• "We had a lovely holiday thanks but would point out that the mattresses on the twin beds were slightly inferior and I personally was very disappointed with the towels, they were thin, hard, well worn and the one I used had a big bleach stain."

  I would rather be asked to bring my own. Our tv broke during our visit and it was very quickly sorted out so thanks to the hosts for that.

Our children were safe and happy playing outside and made friends with Sharon’s dogs as well as the children next door. Overall we had the best family holiday and we couldn’t of asked for more.

• "Despite us not actually being there all that much."

  The Cottage was a lovely, warm and very cosy place to stay. From Books and Board Games to TV and Walks up the country lanes. It had a nice modern upkeep to the look of both the interior and exterior visuals with quite a comfortable space to move around it and even for the dogs to lay down where they pleased. And the view from the cottage is a sight to behold looking up towards Anglesey from the mountain. Everything seemed to be in reaching distance of this place and with no real lengthy travel times either making it a great central location to branch out and do activities in the nearby areas. Overall we are very happy with how this place was presented, its facilities and information's you can use to see what's around. Would very much recommend to family and friends and even to anyone who is interested in staying here!

• "We have really enjoyed spending a week in Marchlyn."

  The location of this property is excellent for access to all the main sights in this corner of North Wales and there is plenty to see and do. The house is located outside the village so a car is definitely recommended, but there are walks and lovely views directly on the doorstep. The secure bike store was useful if you are bringing bikes. The house was immaculately clean, well equipped, very warm and cosy - perfect for a family of 4 + dog for a winter break. We appreciated the wine, milk and fresh flowers on our arrival. Wonderful rain shower was a bonus!

• "The property was lovely and so was our host, Sharon."

  Everything was straightforward- property was easy to find, the house was spacious with plenty of room for everyone and very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. It was lovely being able to interact with the horses in the fields next door and give them an apple or two (with owner's permission). The wine and flowers were a lovely touch. My only two niggles were the double bed and the bathroom floor. The mattress on the double bed wasn't comfortable and I had to remove the foam that was placed in between the mattress and the mattress protector. The foam was put back on the bed before we left. The bathroom floor was especially noisy - even tiptoeing in the middle of the night didn't make a difference to the floorboards squeaking with every step.

  Hi Jean, Thank you for the lovely feedback. We have responded to your comment re King bed mattress, it has now been replaced with a new comfier quality one. Sorry about the squeaky floorboard. The floors are all relatively new, hopefully they wont be as noisy once the boards have settled. (This was the answer off the builder when i enquired why) Best Wishes, Sharon Property Owner

• "The cottage was immaculately kept, and we felt extremely safe with the COVID measures which have been put in place."

  The only issue we had was with the internet connectivity. While free guest wifi was provided, the smart TV in the living room had no internet connectivity (despite being connected to the wifi) so we need to tether the TV to my mobile phone to gain internet access. The wifi worked fine for the TV in the bedroom. This didn't detract from the overall stay, and I would be more than happy to stay here again in future.
