    The property is a lovely quiet location with beautiful views from the front and the back. The location is an ideal base for visiting most places in North Wales and Snowdonia. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped and we loved the size of the rooms. We would highly recommend and would have no hesitation in booking again if we wanted to visit the area again.

    The cottage had everything we needed , the views were amazing and there was a small supermarket in the village. Parking was a little bit difficult at times, but wasn’t too much of a problem. Would definitely recommend this beautiful cosy cottage as a place to stay and it was a lovely place to come back to.

    It really exceeded our expectations - which were already quite high to start with. Everything we needed was provided, and more. From a really well equipped kitchen, to a fantastic range of DVDs, through to little things like a drawer with charging cables for mobile devices, made the stay very comformtable. The view from the front is stunning and it's location was perfect for accessing the mountains and coast. We were also really impressed with the communication from Chris and Sharron, who ensured we had all the details and infomrtion needed. We will certainly be recommending this propery as well as Sykes to framily and friends.

  • "Excellent!!!"

    The cottage was fantastic. Clean (even smelled fresh and clean when we walked in), very welcoming, warm and cosy, especially as we were there during the recent bad weather (40-50mph winds). Coming back and putting the log burner on at the end of the day was always something to look forward to. The cottage is very well equipped...we couldn't have asked for more. The Xmas decorations were a lovely touch, and made it even more special. The owners were extremely helpful; when we had questions they got back to us straight away. The one and only downside for us was the rear garden...didn't realise it was a hillside lawn and having an older arthritic dog he couldn't get up the steep steps to it. But fortunately he was able to use the front patio when he needed to go out. That's ok for our dog as he doesn't venture far so didn't go into the road, but maybe just something to mention in the advert. (Sorry if its there and I missed it). All in all it's a great base for exploring and we had a lovely stay. We would happily have stayed longer. Would definitely recommend it and would return.

  • "Wonderful cottage in a fantastic location, central to all that North Wales has to offer, coast-wise and for the National Park."

    It was very homely with bags of space for just the two of us, and very well-equipped. The views from the front were stunning and the drive over to Beddgelert was gorgeous. There is also the unique picturesque site of Dorothea Quarry within walking distance (half mile) of the property. The local town was good for a supermarket, deli, fish and chips, chinese, pizza and indian so we could easily have gone all week without having to cook. The cottage is set back from the road with parking outside, and we could not have asked more of the cottage. We would definitely return to this cottage if we could get a booking, as there is so much to do in the area. Thank you for a lovely stay.

  • "A nice cottage and great holiday."

    However, day 1 and the Wi-Fi went down. Despite the help from Vodaphone and the owner Chris, it didn't come on-line until Wednesday I think. My daughter spent probably an hour on the phone and of course had to use up her own data for several days. My wife couldn't use her I-pad either. As the property advertised full Wi-Fi we were very disappointed. Is there any chance of a small compensation? Thank you anyway for a restful holiday. Les Martindale

  • "Beautiful cottage with beautiful views."

    Immaculately clean with everything we could have needed. Decent location, although it's a bit of a trot to the mountain and surrounding attractions which is where we spent most of our time. If you're planning to split time between beach and mountains then this is perfect. The log fire was great after a cold day kayaking and the bath was lovely after climbing snowdon. The mattress could maybe have been a bit comfier but we'd have slept through anything after our busy days. The owner was great and replied instantly to our questions. Highly reccomended.

    The rug underneath the dining room table was a bit impractical with children. The house was nicely decorated but there were a lot of breakable items all around that were too easy for young children to reach, and that we found a bit unsuitable with a baby/toddler (we had to move a lot of the decorative items out of reach of children). There were lots of books and DVDs and information on what to do around the cottage, which was really appreciated. The cottage was very clean and spacious. The views were wonderful.

    It was situated well for access to Snowdonia as well as the coast, Llyn peninsula or Anglesey to the north. Although we were rather unfortunate with the weather (remains of a hurricane that week!) we were grateful that the cottage was old and sturdy with thick walls. It was quite lavishly furnished and decorated, everything looked brand new, and there were many thoughtful extras such as a wealth of local information, maps etc, books DVDs and games. We did have trouble working out the controls on some of the equipment, but the owner was most approachable and helpful, even offering to come round if necessary.

    The village is set within the beautiful Nantlle Valley, well worth a drive through. As for the cottage itself, well that was lovely. Very clean with everything you could want, a true 'home from home' feel with lots to keep you occupied on the 'rainy' days...board games, books, DVDs, FreeSat TV and WiFi. Even though it's on the road parking, we managed to park right outside the cottage 6 days out of the 7. No actual amenities within Talysarn these days, but there are some near in Penygroes. As a family of 4 we would definitely recommend 60 Hyfrydle Road and hope to return again one day.

The property

This delightful double-fronted, end of terrace cottage enjoys a slightly elevated situation in the village of Talysarn, in the slate quarrying and stunningly scenic Nantlle Valley, just on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park.

This lovely cottage will suit a couple, friends or family, keen walkers, cyclists, mountain bikers and outdoor enthusiasts and provides the perfect base for exploring the wild and rugged landscapes and stunning scenery of North Wales.

Tastefully furnished throughout with lovely soft furnishings and fresh décor which all help to create a wonderful relaxing ambience and welcoming atmosphere from the moment you arrive.

The sitting room is spacious with a comfy sofa and two reclining leather chairs, ideal after a busy day out and about, what better way to end an evening with your feet up in front of the wonderful woodburning stove.

A dining area provides somewhere for all the family to sit together and enjoy a meal and the kitchen is well-appointed and fully equipped to cater for all your needs.

Upstairs are two stylish bedrooms, both enjoying views extending towards open countryside and hillside scenery and the main bedroom boasts high ceilings, enhancing the feeling of space, a king-size bed and a walk in dressing room which is sure to delight.

A modern bathroom completes this delightful cottage.

Outside to the front of the cottage is seating where you can sit and relax, with a glass of something on those balmy summer evenings and enjoy the scenery and sunsets.

Dorothea Quarry where there are some wonderful walks and hidden lakes deep within, is in walking distance whilst the stunningly beautiful Llyn Nantlle Uchaf and Nantlle Valley are easily accessible too.

The local Pant Du Vineyard and Orchard is less than a mile away and well worth a visit, a great place for a spot of lunch and you can even pick up a couple of bottles of Welsh wine to enjoy later.

The beautiful Dinas Dinlle Blue Flag beach, offering a sloping shoreline, sand dunes and rock pools is just five miles away, and the historic, medieval walled town of Caernarfon, dominated by its majestic mediaeval castle and boasting an array of shops and restaurants, is only nine miles away.

Alternatively, Llanberis, the starting points for many routes up Mount Snowdon, is also within easy reach, making sure you will be spoilt for choice for great days out.

With the rugged beauty of Wales’s lush green hills, rocky peaks and sandy shores just waiting to be discovered, this sweet cottage provides relaxing holiday accommodation and offers a great base for a break away at any time of the year.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
