“Absolutely loved our stay in the cottage (arfron).”

It was well laid out and had what we needed for a few nights stay. I could easily move there permanently!! Comfy beds, clean, cozy but not too small. The host was so friendly. Popping by when we arrived and before we left to make sure everything was ok. The Welsh cakes on arrival were a welcome addition after a 5 hour journey! The location is perfect. Remote enough that you feel like you are in the Welsh mountains but close enough to local amenities at Betws-y-coed. Perfect if you are looking ...

Centrally situated for all 3 zip world sites and white water rafting!

Eleanor August 2025

“We had an incredible stay at Afron.”

Immaculately clean and cosy. We enjoyed dark skies and the quiet and calm. Really good base to explore all of Eryri, would highly recommend. Many thanks

- Eleanor, August 2025
David June 2025

“We found this a lovely place to stay, very peaceful.”

And the surrounding area is great, something you only find once you arrive, there are incredible views and the cottage feels remote, without being so.

- David, June 2025
Geoffrey May 2025

“Our 6th stay in these great cottages.”

Lovely cottage. Immaculately clean and extremely well maintained. Beautiful, tranquil setting. No WiFi but great 4G and mobile phone signal as high up on the hill The owners are very friendly and helpful without being intrusive. We would highly recommend and have already rebooked for next year.

- Geoffrey, May 2025
Ian May 2025

“Had a fabulous week at Arfron, Kath and John were lovely hosts.”

The cottage though remote is still close to amenities and major roads making travelling around North Wales very easy. The accommodation has everything you need for your quiet relaxing stay. We would recommend staying here to anyone wanting a relaxing stay in a charming cottage.

- Ian, May 2025
Julie September 2024

“Kathy & John gave my husband & me, plus dog, a great welcome.”

Cottage was clean, well equipped, and comfortable. Set in beautiful countryside, very close to Betws y Coed and Snowdon. We'd happily return for another holiday to this lovely property.

- Julie, September 2024
Caron September 2024

“Excellent property.”

Just what we needed.

- Caron, September 2024
Suzanne August 2024

“A perfect little base in the middle of nowhere which was a welcome retreat after exploring the local area… Our main reason for visiting the area was to climb Snowden - the cottage was right on the doorstep of everything you would want to visit while in the area and the most distance we travelled in the car was about 40 minutes, which was when we went to the coast.”

The cottage had everything you needed, and communication with the owners was great. If we back to explore more of the area, this will definitely be our first choice for accommodation.

- Suzanne, August 2024
Gillian July 2024

“Beautiful country side location.”

Clean and tidy. Perfect for exploring North Wales. We had a great week x

- Gillian, July 2024
Geoffrey June 2024

The owners Kathy and John are extremely friendly and helpful without encroaching on your privacy. The cottage has wonderful views and so quiet and peaceful

- Geoffrey, June 2024
Jane June 2024

“Very kind and welcoming hosts.”

Very useful to have somewhere to store our bikes. Peaceful, comfortable and clean accommodation in a great location with plenty of local walking and cycling.

- Jane, June 2024
Geoffrey May 2024

“We have stayed in this cottage a number of times.”

We love the location, it is so quiet and peaceful. The owners are very welcoming and helpful. The cottage is very comfortable and clean and extremely well maintained. Would highly recommend it.

- Geoffrey, May 2024
Peter April 2024

“Fantastic stay.”

Hosts were attentive. Cottage was spotlessly clean, accurately listed and well stocked. The bed was comfy. Bedding was very fresh. Locale perfect. With just the chirps of the birds to hear. Only recommendation to potential guests would be to bring own knifes, if like to cook. As although kitchen was well stocked the knife set was quite blunt.

- Peter, April 2024
Kerrie March 2024

“We had a lovely week staying here.”

The cottage is perfect for a family break away - lovely quiet area and stunning views around us! The owners made us feel very welcome & gave some excellent recommendations of things to do while we were there. We would definitely come back again.

- Kerrie, March 2024
Geoffrey September 2023

“Owners very friendly and welcoming as always, as we have stayed here a number of times.”

Lovely cosy cottage. Well equipped. Beautiful peaceful location. Have already booked up for next year.

- Geoffrey, September 2023
Jeremy June 2023

“The property was very clean and well equipped.”

It would have been more comfortable if the stairs and upstairs bedrooms had been carpeted. The TV was very small and this meant moving furniture around in order to view.

- Jeremy, June 2023
Peter June 2023

“Beautiful area, with a very helpful owner.”

- Peter, June 2023
Linda June 2023

“Once again enjoyed every minute of our stay in a lovely cosy little cottage”

Lee May 2023

“What a gem of a cottage.”

It had everything you need and more. Great location with stunning walks and views, very quiet and loved waking up to the birds singing. Owners were very welcoming and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

- Lee, May 2023
Paulien March 2023

“Beatiful location and easy to find thanks to the instructions of the owner.”

We had everything we needed and the owner was very helpful.

- Paulien, March 2023
Rakshya December 2022

“We stayed for three nights over Christmas and it was fabulous.”

Weather was very kind to us and the location of the cottage was just perfect for us. To get here from the main road A5 it’s best to follow googlemaps instead of a car satnav as it’s more straightforward & quicker. We entered the cottage feeling warm and festive the sitting area was decorated and had a small Christmas tree with a welcome box containing local sweets and savouries - we felt homely. However a small feedback for the hosts, we appreciate it might be difficult at times as not every guests are sound but it can get across rather disappointing to mention all the house rules over the phone on your arrival a call or an email next day might be a subtle way. Overall We had a lovely stay, for that thank you again.

- Rakshya, December 2022
Megan November 2022

“Absolutely adored where we stayed, the cottage was beautiful and the area was breath taking.”

Hosts were lovely to speak to and left some booklets with things we could do. Overall we had a brill time only wish we booked it for longer.

- Megan, November 2022
David November 2022

“Great cottage lovely location.”

Not essential but two things that would improve the cottage is a more powerful/spacious shower which in November after hiking in the cold and wet is something you looking forward too. A bigger TV which again in November it's dark early so want to cosy up Infront of that in the evening.

- David, November 2022
Claudio November 2022

“Very nice cottage, 10 minutes from Betws-y-Coed, but far enough for an under the stars experience.”

Sleeping under the stars with a big window to the sky in the master bedroom was just what we needed. Very good communication with the owners, who live in a house a few meters away. Will definitely come back.

- Claudio, November 2022
Mark September 2022

“A welcoming and comfortable place to enjoy all that Snowdonia has to offer.”

Well furnished and equipped, with friendly hosts and walks from the door. Highly recommended.

- Mark, September 2022
Karen August 2022

“Beautiful cottage with everything that you would need.”

Very clean. Very quiet location with lovely views but only four miles from Betswy Coed. We had our dog with us so the private patio and garden were perfect. Owners are close by and perfect hosts. Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day.

- Karen, August 2022
Helen August 2022

“Beautiful, clean and well looked after cottage.”

Everything you need is there. Yes it's in the middle of nowhere but that's why we chose it, it's perfect! Owners lovely and helpful if you needed them. Would Def stay again if we up this way, no hesitation!!

- Helen, August 2022
Mike August 2022

“The cleanest holiday home we’ve EVER used.”

Beautifully maintained, well laid out and perfectly proportioned.

- Mike, August 2022
Andrew July 2022

“Great setting and location to explore N.”

Wales

- Andrew, July 2022
Hannah July 2022

“Lovely, welcoming owners and a perfect cottage to use as a base for our holiday.”

Views to die for, lovely walks (we brought our dog with us) and close to lots of places. My son particularly enjoyed ZipWorld which was just up the road and Betws-y-Coed is only 4 miles away. The cooked breakfast at the Conwy Falls cafe was lovely and within easy walking distance.

- Hannah, July 2022
Lee June 2022

“Kathy met us as we arrived and was very accommodating and most importantly notified us (later on in the week) that we didn't have to vacate till 10:00 this makes a massive difference on any penultimate days stay, as you can really utilise this last day and not be worrying that you've got to be up and out so early the following day.”

The cottage was just perfect and after spending 17 years stopping in different cottages this rates as the best. It was large enough for the two of us and our dog and not cluttered in any way (something that it seems a lot of cottage owners seem to do with stuff you don't need or want). It was spotlessly clean bright and airy. The sofas are really comfortable and the beds a delight to sleep on. It had everything we needed, including a private patio area. So would recommend a 100% and we will be back.

- Lee, June 2022

Loved staying at Arfron, wonderful quiet location which was central to all the places we wanted to visit, good communication from owners, very comfortable and very clean, only negative comment would be TV was quite small

- Margaret, June 2022
Kimberley April 2022

“We had a lovely stay at Arfron cottage and it was exactly what we expected from the listing.”

Hosts were friendly but not intrusive, and ensured the property was clean on arrival. Beds and sofas are comfortable and we slept very well each night. Lovely peaceful location with nice views. Only minor observation was that the hot water was incredibly hot and should be regulated. TV with sky is small but adequate (we took our Amazon fire stick which worked well). EE and Vodafone had 4g reception, we didn't really miss WiFi (but we have unlimited data!). Only other compromise is the shared garden with a dog, quite tricky to ensure she didn't arrive uninvited next door!!! A long lead with a ground stake should be advised if your dog likes sunbathing! 9am checkout was a bit of an effort but managable, 10 or 11 would make a big difference :-) Overall a lovely stay and great value for money, would definitely return. Thanks Kathy and John!

- Kimberley, April 2022
Geoffrey March 2022

“We didn't realize how far off the main roads down narrow lanes the cottage was.”

The cottage was clean and well equipped apart from no salt & pepper, bread knife, no welcome pack or visitors book. The settees and the dining chairs where uncomfortable. The television was very small. To get into the cottage we had to go down 4 steep old steps with no hand rail to hold on to, I found this was dangerous when walking up them as well as carrying bags and suitcases down them. Not suitable for people with walking difficulty.

- Geoffrey, March 2022
Anne-marie March 2022

“Stunning location, easy to find using the postcode and sat nav.”

Very clean and cozy cottage. Loved the very comfortable duvet. It was unclear how to get the oven on, but we might have been too tired from all the long walks to comprehend it ;).

- Anne-marie, March 2022
Edward December 2021

“We really enjoyed our stay at Kathy and John's cottage.”

Quiet, warm and extremely clean. Everything we needed was provided for. Due to Covid we had contact with the owners via telephone. On arrival at New Year we were greeted to a a bottle of wine, chocolates, biscuits and a card which was a lovely gesture from Kathy and John. We would definitely stay at their cottage again

- Edward, December 2021

Spent a week the property was beautiful owners where lovely didn't meet them cos of covid but they rang up to make sure everything was ok the property was nice and warm on a evening up and down stairs can't wait to go back

- Lacey, November 2021
Sandra August 2021

“Lovely setting and car parking area lage and hard standing.”

Owners friendly and ready to help if needed. Privacy of the outside patio excellent

- Sandra, August 2021
Jonathan August 2020

“The cottage was well presented and the welcome great though by phone in current pandemic circumstance.”

We had everything we needed though tea towels would have been useful (I suspect not supplied due to pandemic precautions) Would definitely visit again if we have opportunity. Its a most beautiful location

- Jonathan, August 2020
Rebecca February 2020

“Kathy was wonderful and friendly and the cottage is in beautiful surroundings with everything you need for a lovely stay.”

We couldn't have asked for more, I only wish we could have stayed longer!

- Rebecca, February 2020
Dan December 2019

“The cottage itself is lovely, comfortable with great views.”

It's well equipped with kitchen gear and information. The owners did a lot to make us feel welcome though and provided extra's I was not expecting. There were Christmas decorations which added to the cosiness and a few New Years treats to make the stay even nicer.

- Dan, December 2019
Kristen November 2019

“Nice place, lovely hosts, we really enjoyed our stay and the lovely views.”

The only one thing missing was a pub nearby to walk to. We would definitely stay again.

- Kristen, November 2019
Paul October 2019

Zena November 2018

“Had a lovely break.”

Cottage comfy and hosts very welcoming

- Zena, November 2018
Julie September 2018

“I am extremely disappointed that Sykes overcharged me so much for this holiday.”

The average weekly rates for that particular cottages was actually lower than we had paid for 3 nights! 324 for a week yet we were charged £330 for a weekend. This is unfair and extortionate and for that reason alone I would never use Sykes nor reccomend the company again.

- Julie, September 2018
Stephen July 2018

“Fantastic, great location and brilliant hosts.”

- Stephen, July 2018
Susan May 2018

“I have had many cottage holidays over the years - this must go to the top of my list!”

The cottage was full of character, very comfortable and clean and in a beautiful secluded location. The hosts were most welcoming and provided milk on arrival (most appreciated) together with homemade Welsh cakes that were so tasty I ordered more to take back home with me. Provided in the cottage were loads of useful information - books - leaflets etc. on things to do and walks to go on. Snowdonia is one of my favourite locations and finding this cottage has made my visit absolutely perfect. Needless to say, I will be booking again!

- Susan, May 2018
Lorraine April 2018

“Lovely accommodation in a beautiful away from it all setting.”

Just what we were looking for. Additional bonus is that it is 5mins away from Zip world. Great hosts who we met on arrival. Unfortunately there was no WiFi but it was a refreshing change!

- Lorraine, April 2018
Ian October 2017

Helen June 2017

“Arfron is a lovely cottage and the owners are wonderful.”

- Helen, June 2017
Mandy August 2016

“These cottages are in an excellent quite location.”

Perfectly clean and comfortable. The owners were very helpful without being intrusive. Although linked each cottage has a private front patio with outdoor chairs and table. You wouldn't know you had neighbours, probably due to the very thick walls. Right in the heart of the beautiful countryside but within easy reach of the local attractions and excellent walks, forests, water falls and mountains. We took our dog Hector and found that an area of hillside, fenced off was right next door solely for the dog to run around safely :) We would go here again.

- Mandy, August 2016
William June 2016

“The location was ideal for us - quiet and secluded with stunning scenery.”

The owners were very friendly and welcoming and appeared to have thought of everything, particularly for visitors with a dog.

- William, June 2016
Mrs Davies May 2016

- Mrs Davies, May 2016
Karen April 2016

The owners are fantastic hosts and very welcoming. We will definitely return to explore more of Snowdonia.

- Karen, April 2016
Heather April 2016

“The owners were lovely and so helpful, can't fault them or the property.”

They had thought of everything you could possibly ever need. The property is just lovely too, very quaint.

- Heather, April 2016
Kim February 2016

“The view from Arfron, Penrhyddion Pella was amazing .”

The owner was very welcoming and whilst we didn't need any assistance I did feel that we could have asked and help would have been given. Whilst it is 3 properties made from one barn I felt it was surprisingly private. I cooked in the cottage each night and each utensil/item I needed was there. The owner had really thought about what was in the cupboards.

- Kim, February 2016
Catherine November 2015

“The cottage was perfect; warm, cosy and really well equipped.”

We had a fantastic weekend despite the wet weather and would definitely recommend it and hope to stay again.

- Melvyn, May 2015
susan July 2014

“We were made very welcome and everything that we could want was provided.”

The owners were kind and attentive. The setting of the cottage was beautiful and well situated for exploring the surrounding area. We would highly recommend that if you are visiting North Wales you should try and stay at Arfron cottage!

- susan, July 2014
James&Catherine April 2014

“The situation of the property was excellent, over looking the valleys and mountains, so peaceful and beautiful, if you want a quiet holiday away from it all, this is the place to come to.”

Our hosts very kindly left us some home made Welsh cakes and fresh milk for a welcome cup of tea. It was very much appreciated.

- James&Catherine, April 2014
Tomas August 2013

“Very nice cottage, and owners, based in a beautiful and peaceful place.”

- Tomas, August 2013
Sarann August 2013

“It was one of the nicest cottages that I have stayed in for a holiday.”

You were made to feel very welcome and it felt like home from home. It was ideal as it was away from everything and very isolated. If we go back to that area for another break I would definitely consider using the same cottage again.

- Sarann, August 2013
Elizabeth June 2013

“This accommodation was very well equipped with a lot of extras provided as well as home made welsh cakes on our arrival.”

The owners were extremely helpful and were on call for any problems. The holiday let is in a lovely position up in the peaceful hills with a view of Snowdon, but near enough to local towns for shopping.

- Elizabeth, June 2013

- Helen, September 2011
Martyn August 2011

“The owners made us feel so welcome and nothing was too much for them.”

They even welcomed us when we arrived. This was the first time for me at this cottage and it won't be the last for sure. Also, this was an ideal location in the Snowdon range for all the beautiful walks we did.

- Martyn, August 2011
Robert June 2011

“The owners were so welcoming and I felt that I could call them at any time.”

They made us feel very comfortable, more like friends than paying guests.

- Robert, June 2011
Wilma April 2011

“Beautiful, lovely cottage with a beautiful view to the Snowdonia mountains.”

- Wilma, April 2011
Robert August 2010

“The location was excellent with views over the mountains, in a secluded location yet only a few miles from main routes.”

It was a very nice cottage, formed from a barn conversion with plenty of character and original stone work. The owners were friendly but situated remote enough not to feel you were invading their space. Overall a lovely holiday even with it raining for a couple of days!

- Robert, August 2010
Christa July 2010

“The warm welcome we received was really lovely and made us feel very much at home.”

I have stayed in many self catering cottages in the past but I have never experienced a welcome quite like it. The cottage was lovely, beautifully clean and well presented in an idyllic setting.

- Christa, July 2010
Jean June 2010

“Everything!”

It was absolutely perfect. The cottage was gorgeous, the views were stunning and as a bonus, the weather was superb! We were able to barbecue every night. We went to walk and what a lovely walking area, we also climbed Snowdon. Absolutely fabulous! Can’t speak highly enough about it.

- Jean, June 2010

“Excellent location, very nice people, very welcoming and helpful.”

- Steve, August 2006
Keith August 2006

“If the cottage wasn't breathtaking enough, just to turn around and see the panoramic views of the Snowdonia National Park was the icing on the cake.”

The owners provided such nice little touches on arrival. Although they were on hand to help if required they weren't on the doorstep at every turn. A highly recommended property!!!!

- Keith, August 2006
Jean August 2006

“The setting was FANTASTIC, close enough to travel to seaside or mountains - the scenery was BREATHTAKING - the owners EXTREMELY WELCOMING AND FRIENDLY.”

A real home from home.

About the location

BETWS-Y-COED

Llanrwst 4 miles; Blaenau Ffestiniog 11 miles.

Betws-y-Coed, known as the Gateway to Snowdonia, is North Wales' most popular inland resort. Surrounded by dense woodland and magnificent mountain country, this is a haven for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. At Betws-y-Coed the River Conwy meets its three tributaries flowing from the west, and the beauty of the area is enhanced by cascading waterfalls, river pools and ancient bridges. Most famous of all are the magnificent Swallow Falls, situated where the Llugwy River hurls itself into a spectacular chasm. The village has shops, pubs, places to eat, miniature railway, a riverside golf course and the Tree Top Adventure High Ropes Course, and is home to The Snowdonia National Park Visitor Centre, as well as being the start of the beautiful Conwy Valley which leads to the coast and the lovely towns of Llandudno and Conwy.
