A chic cottage with elegant open-plan living and a luxe bedroom make this the perfect getaway for a relaxing holiday in a particularly beautiful part of North Wales.

From Caernarfon, you can pick up the Welsh Highland Railway and travel to Rhyd-Du and back on the Cwellyn steam train to enjoy views from the foot of Snowdon and over Anglesey. If you’d prefer to relax on the beach, Dinas Dinlle makes a good destination just over five miles away, with its extensive golden sands and safe swimming.

Lovely open-plan living room/kitchen with wooden beams and stylish touches of restful blue. Relax on comfortable chairs around a wood burner in the sitting area. The bedroom has plenty of storage and the bathroom has double basins and a power shower.

Outside is an enclosed lawned garden and paved patio area with outdoor furniture and a gas BBQ. There are bike washing facilities, storage for bikes or kayaks, and a laundry room.

The cottage is in a brilliant location and beautifully decorated. It's perfect to get away from it all. Fantastic sea views and over the mountains. Lovely to watch the weather and animals in the fields from this cosy cottage.

Everything about the cottage was absolutely perfect and we really enjoyed our week, despite some typically Welsh weather. There is so much of interest within easy reach that we were spoilt for choice.

Super cottage, beautifully converted into the ideal holiday home for two. Superb views over farmland to the sea. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and the equipment, crockery etc of a very high standard. Ideally situated for Snowdonia, the Llynn peninsula and Caernarfon. Perfect. Highly recommended.
