"Great place for a family getaway."
Amazing views and a perfect place for walks, I would definitely recommend this property to friends and family. Ideal to travel to other locations in Snowdonia, roughly 50 mins drive from Mount Snowdon, 30 mins drive from the coast, and plenty of other nice villages and walks that are not far away.
Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We are glad you like the house and enjoyed your stay. David and Lorna Property Owner

"The house was immaculate and beautiful, large and very well equipped."
We enjoy cooking together and the kitchen was ideal for that with everything you could possibly need. The views were stunning and the area is absolutely gorgeous. We couldn't find a way to walk around the nearby reservoir but it didn't affect our stay. There were sheep all around so we kept our dogs on the lead outside. Only small criticism is the farmer's dogs are kept outside very close to the house and they barked a lot. Luckily our dogs didn't react. Highly recommend staying there.
Thanks so much for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. David and Lorna Property Owner

"Everything was perfect the owners have gone above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible."
I used to live here as a child and I’m very impressed how its kept its original character and its nicely done up . The garden was freshly cut everything was spotless in the house . My dad owns the sheep around the house and it’s nice that there are signs to ask guests to kindly put the dogs on the leads . I have 2 dogs who thoroughly enjoyed running around in the garden chasing each other . There is a handbook with everything you need to know internet code etc and also places to walk or where to go on days out . I would highly recommend Craig Y Ronwy you wont be disappointed. Thank you to the owners for allowing me to experience my childhood home as an adult .
We can’t say how delighted we are that you came to stay. Your dad is a legend, he both welcomed and helped us. His commitment to the farm and his energy are inspirational. What a place to grow up! Glad you enjoyed your stay. David and Lorna Property Owner

"The property was well equipped, lovely comfortable beds and modern furniture."
Fab shower! The views from the property are stunning too.. Our only problem was the hot water boiler kept going off ( not nice when your in the shower) but we had to keep re setting it . This did not spoil our holiday we had a lovely time exploring north Wales for 2 weeks. Thankyou to the owners for sharing this lovely property.
Thank you for your feedback, we are delighted you liked the house and enjoyed North Wales. Thanks also for providing further details of the boiler issue - the manufacturer has now replaced the faulty part. Property Owner

"Really enjoyed our stay."
The house was really well equipped and felt homely. The views were outstanding and worth the trip alone. The garden (which was fully secure for our dogs) was a lovely spot to take it all in. No issues with the farm dogs for us, heard them a few times in the day but that was it. Would happily book again.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. The views are fantastic and we are glad you had everything you needed for your stay. We'd be very happy to have you back. Best wishes David & Lorna Property Owner

"A beautiful clean and very comfortable cottage with stunning views of the hills ..."
A beautiful clean and very comfortable cottage with stunning views of the hills and reservoir we loved it ,the only issue is the three sheepdogs 50 metres from the property which barked most of the night on our second nightI understand it can’t be helped but it certainly affects your sleep but apart from that it was lovely thank you
Thank you for your feedback, The surrounding area is stunning and we are glad you liked the cottage and enjoyed the surrounding area. The farm dogs are usually quiet at night so we're sorry they disturbed you on one night, something must have disturbed them, perhaps holiday makers at the nearby farmhouse. We can only apologise for this and are pleased you were happy with everything else. Best wishes, David & Lorna Property Owner

"Sadly we ended our holiday 2 days early, not because of the accommodation which was really good but by the 3 dogs that were caged within earshot of cottage and that barked almost constantly throughout the nights."
When we would have liked to have windows open during the warm evenings they were kept shut, and even this did not stop the sound reaching the two main rooms. The lack of sleep was unbearable. Sad as the property is lovely and well decorated / furnished. Clearly this is an ongoing issue judging by similar comments in the visitors book.
Thank you for your feedback and we are glad you liked the property. I can only apologise that you were disturbed by the farm dogs, unfortunately this is beyond our control, as the house sits within farmland. They are usually quiet at night, as they tend to bark when people pass by. We will speak with the farmer. Property Owner

"The cottage is in the prefect spot to explore Snowdonia."
It is well placed with beautiful views over the reservoir and hills. It is remote enough to make you feel you are away from it all, yet you can get to the shops in around a 10 minute drive if you need to. Inside it is really modern and clean. The owners have thought of everything and it is well equipped with kitchen equipment, books, games, DVDs etc. The sofas and beds are really comfortable. The only downside to this place is that at some point you will have to leave. It felt like a home from home. We have stayed in a lot of places in Wales and this is one that we will definitely book again.
Thank you for such lovely feedback. We’re pleased you enjoyed your stay and we’d be delighted to have you back. David and Lorna Property Owner
