    “We should have read the description with a little more investigative questioning.”

    The cottage is isolated with no internet at all and unfortunately no phone signal for either EE or iD networks. It is an old cottage with damp and insects that like that environment. The TV reception was poor on some nights but not others. The kitchen was well equipped - just lacking a fish slice - and the hob and oven was handy. The shower was inadequate - poor output.

    The cottage is isolated with no internet at all and unfortunately no phone signal for either EE or iD networks. It is an old cottage with damp and insects that like that environment. The TV reception was poor on some nights but not others. The kitchen was well equipped - just lacking a fish slice - and the hob and oven was handy. The shower was inadequate - poor output. But it did have a lovely bath. Having said all that we had a wonderful time in the area. The owner Dilys was a lovely lady. She lived on-site in another property and her son lived next door to our cottage. Very helpful and friendly. There were about 4 rentals on the site which had beautiful views across the valley. Unfortunately for us there were road works for the week we stayed which made getting in and out of the village a bit like a cross country RAC rally. There was a pub and a well stocked Londis about 700m down the hill.

The property

A traditional, 17th century, detached cottage surrounded by fields and countryside in an elevated position just a quarter of a mile above the village of Penmachno, in the magnificent Snowdonia National Park.

This Penmachno cottage is furnished to a comfortable standard and is in a wonderful location with stunning views of the surrounding mountains and valley.

This charming character cottage is ideal for a Penmachno family holiday as it has a master bedroom and a cosy attic bedroom with the option of an additional single bed in part of the sitting room.

With exposed beams, an open fire and whitewashed stone walls this Penmachno cottage creates a homely atmosphere to greet you after a day out exploring Snowdonia or attacking the challenging mountain bike trail which crosses the other side of the valley.

This is a fabulous destination for those wishing to explore the area, with the charming village of Betws-y-Coed only four miles away, offering traditional pubs, quality restaurants and numerous outdoor activities.

For visiting thrill-seekers, enjoy a few hours at one or both of the Zip World sites in North Wales.

Guaranteed to be an exhilarating day out!

About the location

PENMACHNO

Betws-y-Coed 4 miles.

The small, peaceful village of Penmachno is situated in the beautiful Machno Valley, just 4 miles from the popular town of Betws-y-Coed. Surrounded by woodland, magnificent mountains and flowing rivers, the whole area is a haven for walkers, birdwatchers, mountain bikers and climbers, whilst Betws-y-Coed itself offers a good range of shops, pubs and cafes. Here the River Conwy meets its three tributaries, creating a host of cascading waterfalls, river pools and ancient bridges throughout the surrounding countryside, the most famous of which is the magnificent waterfall at Swallow Falls, situated where the River Llugwy meets with a spectacular chasm, creating a sight not to be missed! The beautiful Conwy Falls are also well worth a visit and are situated in the Machno Valley. With all of Snowdonia to explore and North Wales' Heritage Coastlines also within easy reach, this beautiful location has plenty to offer at any time of year.

Note: Steep open tread stairway leading to attic bedroom with sloping ceiling with access to bed from one side only.
