  • "This is a beautiful property!"

    We stayed with our large family group (sons, daughter in law’s, grandchildren and dogs) its was perfect, it had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The views from the hot tub are beautiful. The garden is enclosed so we felt relaxed with the children and dogs outside. We would recommend this property to all our friends and family.

    Thank you Steve & family for your great feedback. I’m so glad that you thought Cefn Nannau had a safe outside area for everyone…meaning you could all enjoy…thank you & best wishes Property Owner

    And would truly recommend this to anyone looking for a break away with the family. Hot tub was fantastic. Grounds were brilliant for the 2 dogs to run round and the children to play. We felt very welcome on arrival when we had some lovely treats left for us . Will definitely be returning. Thank you so much

  • "We had a fantastic stay at Cefn Nannau!"

    We were greeted to a perfectly clean and well equipped house along with some homemade cake which was a lovely touch. The house was ideal for our family group of 8 adults and 2 children with everyone having their own bedroom and en-suite/bathroom. Everything was spotless and the beds were really comfy, everyone commented on the great nights sleep we all had. Everything had been thought of even down to stair gates, a high chair and travel cot for our youngest. Outside, the views were incredible and were amazing to wake up to. The hot tub was also an excellent touch and was enjoyed after a long day out walking. We couldn't fault Cefn Nannau and we'd be back in a heartbeat!

    The view from the property and whilst enjoying the hot tub are breathtaking Only slight problem was the 2 twin bedrooms on the top floor, which the four children had, didn't have a toilet or bathroom. Not a problem for the oldest but not ideal for the youngest who regularly was up in the night. The owners have absolutely thought of everything you could possibly need and provide it .

    Equipped with everything you could need. Beautiful rural surroundings of hills and farmland countryside. Great for a family gathering with 2 lounges, large kitchen, utility/games room with table football and garden. Great to explore the east (Betws y coed, Llangollen, aquaduct), south (Bala, Treweryn/Capel Celyn, King Arthur's labyrinth), west (Snowdon, Llyn peninsula, Portmeirion, cave trampolining, Bedgellert, Harlech), north (Penrhyn zip wires, Llandudno, Anglesey). Lovely helpful owners who live a few miles away and very useful and tasty welcoming treats on arrival of cake, coffee, wine, bread, butter, milk etc on arrival. We all had a really lovely and memorable holiday at Cefn Nannau.

    The house was spotlessly clean. The bedrooms were fantastic the majority with their own en suite. We were soon unpacked and in the hot tub, which was spotless and inviting. The views from the hot tub overlooking the local country side , just added to the experience . The garden was a lovely place to stay at any time of the day and had the sun on it all day. The garden was secure so the dig could run free without any concerns. Whilst there we played boule, cricket and frisbee in the garden and despite losing several tennis balls everything else remained in the confines of the garden. We bbq’d most days. We took supplies with us such as charcoal , instant light bags, bbq utensils and gas lighter but must if it was provided at the house. However we knew we would be using more than would be supplied so came prepared. The property is located next to a working farm where cattle are reared but this seldom bothered us or the dog. We purchased steak and beef burgers from Eleanor and they were fabulous , well worth getting some for the bbq.if staying. Both lounges are comfortable with modern televisions. The wi fi was a little hit and Miss and tended to drain mobile phones outside as they were constantly trying to connect. We tended just to use our mobile data outside. We were fortunate enough to have sunny weather 21 degrees most days of the week. We did venture out for local walks but it was so relaxing at the house we tended to stay there. We have been on a number of Sykes holiday and this was our favourite and will definitely be returning in the future. Ash

    11 of us stayed for a weekend to celebrate a birthday and we are so glad we chose Cefn Nannau. Beds were so comfy, house was spotless and there was more than enough space for everyone. Hot tub was incredible as well, we all got to enjoy that at some point over the weekend. The owners of Cefn Nannau, Eleanor and her husband, were a pleasure to communicate with. We had two little dogs with us and they made it a priority that the garden and around the house were all fenced in for the dogs to have their freedom. A lovely bonus which we weren’t aware of is that the house is on a farm so there is cows and sheep surrounding which we all loved as animal lovers. Eleanor’s husband was more than happy to stop and chat to us about the animals and answer all the questions we had. We all highly recommend Cefn Nannau for a great break away and can’t wait to return!

We were blessed with amazing weather, which made it even more serene. The location is perfect - 20 minutes away from Bala and Betwsy-y-Coed, and 50 minutes away from Portmeirion. We visited all of these places and the drive there was even gorgeous - no motorways, just country roads and amazing views. I would recommend the white water rafting in Bala and zip world coaster in Betwsy-y-Coed for the adrenaline junkies (best to book in advance if you are visiting on the weekend). Portmeirion (£15 per adult for entry) and the Swallow Fails trail for those who want something a bit more laid back. The cooking facilities, and amenities in this property are incredible. From the high-tech coffee machine, to the Foosball table and the big 12 person table in the kitchen.. we couldn't have wanted for anything more!

  • "Cefn Nannau house, its location and surroundings are absolutely stunning."

    We had a wonderful big family (11 people) stay here and it was suitable for all ages ranging from grandparents to toddlers. The views from the garden and especially the hot tub are second to none and you will never get bored of looking at them. The cottage itself is a great mixture of old farm house with modern touches. Everything you could possibly need is catered for. The rooms are lovely and spacious, all with good size en-suites and beautiful views. The house is immaculate. The youngsters enjoyed the football table in the utility room. The owners have really thought of everything and make sure your stay is so comfortable and relaxing. Eleanor would visit daily to test the hot tub (to ensure it always stays clean) but this is done in a non intrusive way. You could ask Eleanor or Iwan anything and we were given lots of advice for places to visit in this gorgeous part of North Wales, I recommend you ask about the Luing Beef products from their farm very reasonably priced and very delicious. There is a small shop 1.8 miles away which isn’t really walkable due to farmland and the main road. Bala Lake is a must visit as is Betws-y-Coed. We also took a trip to Harlech beach which was beautiful as the weather was so hot! There is a hairdryer in all the rooms, towels, separate hot tub towels downstairs and a washing machine and tumble dryer and a barista style coffee machine & bean grinder for the coffee lover’s. There are two big fridge freezers and 3 bedrooms with en-suites, a big family bathroom and a downstairs shower room. It is next to one of their farms but this only adds to a countryside holiday. This was not noisy at all and they were always conscious of keeping noise down. The owners live in another village a short distance away.

  • "We booked for a birthday weekend, 4 generations of our family ranging from Grandma to 4 month old Eleena, 8 adults and 4 children."

    The house is amazing and has everything you need. It has beautiful furniture and decor, all done to a high standard with comfort in mind. The huge kitchen table became our favourite place where we all gathered to eat together and interact. The beds are so comfortable and I slept like a baby. The hot tub was also a favourite. The house is quite rural and peaceful. The hosts Eleanor and iwan were very helpful but not intrusive, we got lost and iwan came to our rescue to guide us to the house. We visited Conwy castle and Llandudno pier which grandma thoroughly enjoyed. Would highly recommend this place and have nothing negative to say. Thank you to Eleanor and iwan

    The house is spotlessly clean, has everything you need and more, great communication with the vendors both before and after our stay. Both Iwan and Eleanor are fabulous hosts (without being intrusive) with the comfort of your stay their utmost priority, and you really shouldn’t pass on the opportunity to sample their Welsh Luing Beef - it’s absolutely delicious and great on the BBQ! I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this accommodation to others and should we visit Wales again I would most definitely make my first enquiry here.

  • "We spent a wonderful week at Cefn Nannau as a party of 7 plus our dog."

    The house was absolutely beautiful, with a stylish, but comfortable interior and very well appointed. The owners have clearly put a great deal of thought and care into both the decor and the facilities and we found that we had everything we needed for a brilliant family holiday. The outside space was great, with a hot tub perfectly positioned to sit back and enjoy uninterrupted views. We had a young dog with us, so having the garden safely enclosed meant that we could relax knowing that he was safe. There is ample parking and plenty of lawn space to play or relax, as well as further outside seating by the built in bbq to enjoy evening meals or a drink in the sunshine. Snowdonia is one of our favourite places in the UK and Cefn Nannau proved a perfect base from which to explore its many attractions. I have no doubt we will be back. Huge thanks to the owners, Eleanor and Iwan, for ensuring we had such a terrific stay!
