Fabulous location, lovely and quiet but within easy reach of some great places to visit. Would highly recommend zip world!
Ellie
We stayed here in August 2024 and we had the most lovely week. The peaceful setting and beautifully renovated property was more than we could have hoped for. We stayed as a family of 5 with one disabled member and we honestly couldn't rave about it more. The facilities were perfect for the whole family (including the dog!) with the downstairs bedroRead moreom and bathroom perfect for our needs. The hosts were so lovely too and we had everything we could have needed (and more!) A brilliant week! Hide

We all loved our stay at Maes Yr Hendre, from the moment we arrived at this stunning, peaceful location. The cottage is warm, welcoming and comfortable, and Mari and Ieuan were excellent hosts from our first communication until the end of our stay. The layout is thoughtful, with the downstairs shower perfectly placed for pre- and post- hot tub showRead moreers. The boot area, washing machine and dryer were much appreciated, especially in the light of the very Welsh weather conditions! Hide
Claire
This was one of the best cottages we have stayed at. The location is not far from a number of places you can visit. The cottage was clean and bigger than we had expected. It had all equipment you could need and the downstairs shower room next to the entrance was handy for the dogs! Hottub was huge, garden was closed off for dogs to run around. The Read morecottage is about a mile from the main road down a single road but we were lucky not to cross other traffic. Will be booking again! Hide

One of the nicest cottages we have stayed in. Perfect for an extended family. Large hot tub in a very large secure garden. Very quiet location with some narrow approach roads. Great base for the North Wales coast and close enough to get onto Anglesey for a day out as well. Its a 10 minute drive into the town of Llanrwst and the nearest bars and eatRead moreeries. A great base for a summer holiday overall. Hide
Clive
Fantastic cottage in a wonderful quiet countryside location, perfect for local attractions such as Zipworld Penrhyn, Caernarfon, Snowdonia and Bodnant.

The welcome pack was greatly appreciated after a long journey. Mari was extremely helpful and we would certainly recommend this cottage to anyone.

RUSSEL
My Family spent May day bank holiday weekend there for my wife's 60th birthday. The house is spotless and perfect and had everything we needed, as we had a baby, a toddler and a dog with us. If we re in the area again I'm sure we d want to stay there again. Location is perfect for all the sites of North Wales, Snowden 40mins drive, Llandudno and Co nwy 20mins, and the local Beauty spot of Cadair Ifan Goch, half hours walk. We had a great stay.

The cottage is outstanding! Beautifully presented, clean, cosy and very spacious; even with 6 adults, 2 children, 2 infants and 2 dogs. The cots/ highchair provided were a huge help and made life a lot easier. The location is great for exploring all that North Wales has to offer and the views from the property/ hot tub are lovely. We will definitel y be booking again and cant recommend staying enough.
Abijay
Absolutely beautiful cottage! We have just returned from a 4 day stay for a 30th birthday surprise and what a surprise it was! This cottage is outstanding! Clean, comfortable, well organised and decorated for Christmas too! I took my three children and all accessories were provided by the owners such as cot, stair gates, high chair supporting us wi th the luggage as we know how hard that is when you take children on holiday! Honestly if you want to stay in north wales, stay here!
Sinead
HIGHLY recommended. We had an amazing stay at this cottage. It was like a home away from home and was so beautiful and cosy. We were 3 couples and had a young child, a baby and a dog with us. The cottage had everything we needed and more, and was a lot more spacious than what we expected. We visited the centre of Conwy, the beach and a local pub, a s well as taking time to relax in the cottage and hot tub. We have decided to make this a yearly trip and will 100% be booking this cottage again.
Dildar
As we arrived at the premises the cottage was warm and clean and the hot tub was all working ready to use and user friendly. Be aware that the road leading to the cottage is single uneven road so if low suspension car not recommended. Kids enjoyed it as plenty open space to play on.
Delyth
The cottage is in a lovely location and ample room for 8 people. The hot tub is amazing with views across the valley. The cottage was warm although we did take advantage of the wood burner too. Plenty of hot water for showers. We had a food delivery from Sainsbury which arrived on time. The cottage is near to so many places it makes it an ideal cen tre for lovely holiday in Wales.
Angela
We spent a lovely week here in September. The farmhouse is situated in a beautiful quiet spot. The views down the dale are heavenly. Not a sound can be heard except maybe the lowing of cows. The farmhouse has everything you could ever need. The welcome pack was much appreciated. Cosy and warm everywhere even in autumn. We visited many places. Some of our favourites were Conwy,Plas Mawr, Llandudno, Caernarfon Castle, Bodnant Gardens, Beaumaris Castle, Anglesey. You wont be dissappoint ,
Peter
The house overall was lovely and in a great location (away from any main roads) which meant quiet, peaceful surroundings. Hot tub was lovely to get into at the end of the day. Interior of the house was nice and modern with everything you needed and more (slow cooker was a bonus!). Would definitely recommend for anyone with a big family (there was 8 adults, 1 baby and 2 dogs!).
Stephen
A beutifull , comfortable ,spacious well appointed cottage in an ideal location .
Billy
Perfect remote location provides gorgeous views for your holiday. The cottage has everything you would expect and more. The unexpected welcome pack. Was a nice touch to start of the holiday in the cottage. We are already looking at returning next year!
Anne
The location is very peaceful. The property is well fitted out, with quality furnishings and very comfortable. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise. We recommend Tir A Mor in Llanrwst for fish and chips, Bodnant Welsh Foods shop for excellent butchery, deli, etc. and the Parisella icecream shop in Conwy for icecream to die for. So many flavours i t's impossible to choose. A visit to Fairy Falls is well worth while. For cyclists there are excellent mountain bike trails for all skill levels.
Stewart
Lovely cottage in a glorious area. Slightly off the beaten track but well worth it, and still close enough to all the amenities and activities required to keep the family happy and content. Perfect size garden for our dog too. Fully recommend

Beautiful, well equipped and comfortably furnished cottage with outstanding views. Lovely large lawn with very modern hot tub from which to enjoy the stunning views.
Lawson
If you want a relaxing break, this cottage is exceptional on every level. It's beautifully restored and the log burner is a lovely touch! The cottage owners were very nice people and we had a tour of the listed buildings that had not yet been restored. To be fair, its not far from most things and ZipWorld is a must. Thank you for a lovely stay, cal m, peace and tranquility all in one place topped off with a huge hot tub... Aaahhhhhhhh
Dan
Beautiful cottage in an even better place, the house had everything needed and more. A little tricky to get to but well worth the journey. To top it off the owner was very friendly and accomodating.
