“Warm, comfortable and cosy cottage.”

Enjoyed our stay. WiFi would be an advantage as little to no mobile reception inside cottage.

“The mattress on the bed in the master bedroom wasn't in a good condition and led to a back-ache on the first night.”

Aside of that, the property is maintained really well and its also located at an appropriate distance from most of the attractions.
Mr Rondas August 2019

“It really needs a proper deep clean, and a lick of paint.”

The downstairs area was particularly dirty: it felt it hadn’t been cleaned properly in a long time. Kitchen door and surfaces were sticky, pillows in sofa smelled. A shame because it could be a really nice cottage with a bit more TLC
Mrs Pearce April 2019

“Lovely stay in this cosy cottage.”

Stunning walks straight from the door. Close enough to conveniences, but nice to be on the edge of town. Provision of basics, milk, tea, coffee...etc was appreciated. Very interesting to read about the history of the cottages and the surrounding area.

“The cottage was accurately described in the listing.”

It was clean and comfortable with pleasant neutral decor. The log burner was fantastic, especially as it was snowing when we arrived! I would say however that there was only three logs and half a box of matches so we had to go out to get more logs soon after we arrived. The kitchen was very well equipped and everything was in good working order however I would say it is in need of an upgrade, coating was peeling from the cupboard fronts in some places. The bathroom was clean and in good working order however I would say that it may be in need of a upgrade in the not too distant future. Bedrooms were very comfortable and well appointed however the pillows left a little to be desired, could do with an update. The views from the front bedroom window in particular are fantastic! The location was great, very easy to find as on the main road in Blaenau. Close to shops and amenities and a great base for exploring the Snowdonia Hills. Overall we had a fab stay and we would stay again.

Great location, nice and cosy little spot, this place really needs WiFi though, no reception at all on phone so WiFi would’ve been a big help
Mr O'keeffe October 2018

“Tan-y-Rhos was exactly what we needed: cosy and quiet, but within easy reach of the shops in Blaenau Ffestiniog.”

It's a great base for exploring Snowdonia and the wider region, with some lovely drives before you put your walking boots on... The house was well equipped and the beds comfortable. We'd certainly consider coming again!
Mr Buckley July 2018

“Lovely cosy cottage which makes a good centre for visiting Snowdonia.”

Parking space outside the cottage was difficult to use but better than nothing. Lots to do and see in the area and well worth the visit.
Mrs James-best May 2018

“We had a lovely holiday but Luckily the weather was good and we didn’t spend much time in the house.”

The cottage was generally ok, but not so clean and the cooking facilities (pots and pans, knives) were in poor condition and not adequate for us to cook properly. The pans were very scratched and the knives were blunt. Nevertheless we enjoyed the beautiful area and had a great holiday.
Mr Moss April 2018

“Having argued with the sat nav which seemed hell bent on giving us a scenic tour of Wales and coped with one of our small dogs who doesn't travel well we arrived extremely stressed !”

! Fortunately upon arrival we opened the door to a lovely warm cottage with tea, coffee, milk and chocolate biscuits awaiting inside. Thank you. Within 30 minutes we had forgotten the stressfull journey and engaged in planning our week Finding a property prepared to accept two pets that is strategically placed for the area you wish to explore is not always easy so this cottage ticked all our boxes A good time was had by all Cheers
