Bothi Reviews

The bothi is an ideal base for walking the Welsh hills and mountains. Arenig fawr is a mountain a short distance from the cottage and is fantastic walk. The cottage also offer's fishing on your doorstep. Looking forward to the next visit.
Anthony
An amazing little tucked away gem of a place, total peace and quiet, beautiful surroundings, everything in the cottage as stated in the description. The hot tub is a must!! What better way to unwind than with a glass of wine whilst chilling in the tub, shower is awesome too. Whole cottage spotlessly clean. Definitely be back next year.
Bernard
Great location and well presented property. Lack of manuals for electric equipment very frustrating and time consuming. Would recommend taking own towels , those provided were poor quality. Hot tub a very early model and the wooden steps to gain access are rotting, to the extent they are now a safety hazard .
Stunning location and very peaceful. Cottage perfect for 2 people. Loved the bonus of the hottub, worth spending the 50 on. We had everything we needed inside but there were a couple of points worth noting. The inside was overrun with spiders. They were in every corner of every room...would have been better if they had been removed before our arrival! The DVD player was described as Blueray, however it refused to play our blueray disc at all. The mattress seriously needs replacing. It has collapsed underneath and this is clearly visible. We both had a bad back by day 3 of our stay. It would be great if there was a switch to turn off the outside lights. They came on every night and were a magnet for all flying insects which meant we couldn't leave the doors or windows open at night. It was 28 degrees in the bedroom one evening...if the lights can't be turned off then maybe supply a couple of fans. A clothes airer would havd also been welcome for hanging up wet towels and swimwear from the hottub.
The only thing we think may improve is black out curtains, as light come on outside bedroom at night. Great views well maintained facilities. Quite and peaceful place to relax
Bothi was cozy and comfortable, from the moment we arrived we felt at home ,the rooms were well proportioned and the kitchen well equipped, the shower pressure was impressive and the underfloor heating was great . hot tub was a bonus and the views were amazing , cant wait to go back
The cottage was immaculate. Definitely lacked storage though. Nowhere in the bathroom to put toiletries at all. Instructions for the cooker would have been extremely useful and also for the hot tub. The key for the front door was in the door when we arrived and we didn't see anyone all week apart from a young man who told us his Uncle, who owned the place, would probably tell us to leave the money on the table for the hot tub?? How to use it would have been helpful!! Extremely disappointing!!

A lovely location and outlook. However the property lacked some key facilities. The bathroom lacked any space for toiletries. A shelf andor cabinet would be advisable, there is room for both. A shower tidy is also helpful. The bedroom lacked cupboard space with a small hanging space in the small utility cupboard outside. No hanging space for wet outer clothing. No appliance instructions in the welcome pack. Helpful if you don't know or are not familiar with them. Internet router access would be helpful for online bookings Some of the lighting has nor been checked, many bulbs not functioning on the cooker hood, bathroom mirror and lounge area. So disappointing as the owner has just renovated the property!!
Peace and quiet, tranquil is the correct description for the Bothi. Situation off the beaten track with kites buzzard and a myriad of house martins, swifts and shallows and LBJ's, little brown jobbies, birds. More information about walks from the property and about the immediate area would have been good. But all in all, enjoyed our stay. Efficient hosts too.
Peace perfect peace! so wonderful NOT TO HEAR CARS LORRIES ETC. Stunning view from the patio area. Lovely peaceful walking on your doorstep. Really enjoyed our own personal theatre of wildlife action involving red kites buzzards swallows house martins and many more. Liked the inclusion of information leaflets and took advantage of a few
Patricia
The Bothi was very clean and comfortable and had everything you needed, it was very quite and peaceful just what the doctor ordered, we would definitely book again as soon as possible.
Absolutely wonderful stay, everything we needed. Great views from the bothi, bird song morning and evening and plenty of sheep
Philip
Had a lovely relaxing holiday at the 'Bothi'. No noise except bird song and lambs bleating and the distant burbling of the stream. The Bothi is comfortable with everything you need and warm and cosy even with the heating off which, at the beginning of May was great. Bala is the main town for shopping with Chemist, Bakery and Coop Spar stores also Cafs Pubs for eating out.
Robert
Beautiful property located in a picturesque setting. Went to sleep hearing the owls hoots and woke to the birds singing. Was fabulously decorated and clean and was also very warm with the underfloor heating. The owner was easy to get hold of should we needed to but equally left us to enjoy our minibreak in peace and quiet. We will be back again, thank you.
The Bothi was lovely just as advertised or maybe better. It was clean well equipped and had wonderful views. It says it all that I would love to stay again. The owner introduced herself but that was it, not intrusive but friendly and said let her know if anything wasnt right. A great holiday
Excellent accommodation in an idyllic location. The property was perfectly clean on arrival and had everything we needed for our weeks stay. We would love to visit again and highly recommend this property.
Anthony
A Beautiful setting for a well appointed cottage .
Sharon
We had a lovely stay at Bothi. It's in a stunning location. A small issue with the heating was sorted quickly by the owner who was friendly and helpful. Unlike other cottages we have stayed at, there was no welcome pack ie. milk, bread etc which would be a nice addition as there isn't a shop nearby. We would definitely recommend Bothi as a very peaceful and relaxing stay.
Beautiful Bothi in a stunningly rural setting. We hope to return in the not too distant future.
The property was lovely. Perfect for two. The position is enviable with quietness and views. The property is well equipped and is a home from home. There were just a couple of fine details that would make stay perfect there is no where in the bathroom for the toiletries, and no shelf in the shower. The level of detail in the information booklet in the property is limited. No information on Where is the nearest hospital, doctor dentist in case of emergency. Where is the nearest large supermarket, are there restaurants local. What local attractions are about. Not everyone is in Wales to walk. With the lack of WiFi and 4G is hit and miss or not everyone has the ability, this info is vital. The only big disappointment is when asking for help with the heating, we didnt get it, we also dont understand the logic that you dont provide towels but do supply bed linen. Whats the difference.
Cottage situated in a stunningly beautiful area, only sound was of sheep and birds. Perfect for a relaxing holiday.
Ideal place for a quiet retreat and lots of lovely walks
Louise
Fabulous location, really comfortable cottage. We had a really great relaxing time.
We really enjoyed our stay at Bothi. The place was very clean, comfortable & furnished throughout to very high standards. Everything we needed whilst there, was provided. There were lots of places to visit within a few miles & luckily we had good weather. We would not hesitate to recommend Bothi to our family & friends & would certainly book it again should we wish to tour the area further.
Great position beautiful views over the fields and mountain's from all positions.
You described what we got! ! The accommodation was as we expected comfortable and fulfilled our needs.
The property was smart and well fitted out. Best of all a comfortable bed with a beautiful view and a fabulous power shower. For a couple this is perfect and we'd certainly stay here again. Pleasant and helpful owners, who fixed a very minor problem quickly when asked. This area is well suited for roving around North Wales, as most places are no more than an hour and 15 minutes or so away and many closer than that, e.g. 50 minutes to Portmeirion and an hour to Bodnant Gardens.

Bothi was very well appointed and comfortable. Set in an amazing location with lovely views over the fields. We had a great stay and explored around quite a lot of Norrh Wales and Snowdonia. Well worth a visit.
We had a lovely relaxing holiday at Bothi Lodge, in beautiful surroundings, with walks direct from the Lodge. The Lodge itself was modern and very well equipped. All in all a great place to take a vacation!
He accommodation was excellent it was more than we were expecting . It was very comfortable and very peaceful . It was the first time we had been on holiday in Wales and we both thought wales was beautiful . We will be returning to stay at this property in the near future .
David Ian
Bothi is the epitome of tranquillity. It's position in a quiet area of Llanuwchllyn is second to none. The welcome given by Mr & Mrs Rowlands was an excellent start to our holiday. The Bothi was spotlessly clean, wellequipped and 'felt like home'. The scenery and ambience of the Bothi was a perfect example of peacefulness. We were quite upset when we left 'The Bothi Llanuwchllyn' at the end of our week's stay. We would highly recommend it. Ian & Jan Swansea, South Wales
For any one who loves peace and quiet then this is the place for them. To be able to sit out side and watch all the different birds, listen to the bleating of the little lambs was really lovely. The cottage was really nice too, clean and comfortable with all you need. The couple who owned the Bothi were really lovely. They were very welcoming and friendly. My husband and i are both very happy to have stayed there.
