  • "Excellent accommodation spacious, well appointed and very clean."

    Owners very welcoming, cheerful and helpful. They went above and beyond in helping me to get my computer fixed. Only draw back to our minds was location. It is a long way from places of interest, except lake Brenig.

    Thank you for providing your feedback, .. it is genuinely appreciated, .. and we are glad the accommodation was to your liking. Whilst we are clearly located in a rural area, we hope that this offers our guests an opportunity to enjoy the surrounding countryside, and some seasonal elements of rural and farming life. We consider ourselves centrally located within North Wales, which provides an ideal base for those who wish to explore the attractions on offer. As you mention, we are (by car,) .. within 15 minutes of the Brenig and Alwen reservoirs, and 'GYG', .. Wales’ biggest outdoor kart circuit is even closer. We are less than 30 minutes from the village of Betws y Coed, (which offers shopping, dinning and the nearest Zip-World experience), and also the towns of Ruthin, and Bala, - each boasting it's own visitor attractions, (Ruthin Gaol museum and the famous Bala lake.) 45 minutes by car can take you to Llangollen to the East, (home of the International Eisteddfod), or Pen y Pass to the North West, (.. the starting point of the most popular Snowdon paths,) .. and then on to Bethesda or Blaenau Ffestiniog to enjoy the various 'zip-line' rides. and 'below ground' experiences. A bit further, but still within an hour's drive are the towns of Llanberis (for the Snowdon railway), the costal towns of Conwy & Caernarfon (to visit the castles,) Llandudno for the promenade, Porthmadog (for steam railway enthusiasts), or Wrexham.. now famous for its football club, (and owners). Bodnant Gardens, Chirk Castle and Erddig (all National Trust properties), are also a similar distance, and can be reached within an hour's driving. I hope some of the above will tempt you back. Kind Regards, Guto & Catrin. Property Owner

    The owners, Catrin and Guto, are extremely friendly, helpful and welcoming. The property itself is just beautiful, lovely big (but warm) rooms, hot and powerful showers and a really comfy bed.

  • "We had a brilliant week staying at Y Stabl."

    The owners Catrin and Guto could not have been more welcoming and helpful. The cottage has been done to the highest standard and they have thought of everything to make it feel like a home from home. It is such a peaceful spot where you can really feel like you are getting away from busy life but very accessible to the Snowdonia and everything North Wales has to offer. Would definitely book again.

    Thank you for your kind comments, .. they are very much appreciated. As you would expect, we echo your views regarding the surrounding area, .. North Wales does have plenty to offer families of all ages. It is so nice for us to hear of how guests enjoy the attractions, and how the numerous experiences enrich their stay, .. especially the special birthday celebrations. It was a pleasure to host your family, and a warm welcome awaits you back at Merddwr Cottages, whenever you can return. Kind Regards, Guto & Catrin Property Owner

  • "Family Friendly Cottage."

    Just back from a lovely stay in Y Stabl it and it met all our expectations and more. The decor is very modern with beautifully exposed aged beams from the original building in every room. It’s very spacious and there was plenty of room for my toddler to run around without me having to worry. Stair gates were provided, and owners were on hand to help with anything we needed. Kitchen was very well equipped so there’s no need to bring anything. My little boy particularly enjoyed seeing the cows and sheep outside Y Stabl on the working farm. The night sky is fantastic with very little light pollution.

    Thank you for providing feedback on your stay at Y Stabl, and for your kind words. We are both so very pleased that you had such a wonderful time, and that everything provided for a comfortable stay and a memorable vacation. It would be our pleasure to welcome you back soon.
