A beautiful cottage in small village within short drive to a variety of tourist destinations and some nice simple circular walks for beginners on the doorstep. At first glance it appears fairly small, but inside it extends to additional rooms with separate games room. Outstanding entertainment for the kids (and adults) with pool table, darts, dvds,Read more board games available as well as the jacuzzi. Small kitchen but the pub the bee and nearby holland arms were great for good quality food - book! Hide

Claire

This was a much needed family break. It couldn't have been more perfect! The house is in a lovely peaceful location but still near to all attractions of north Wales. It's very well equipped a proper home from home but better. Hot tub pure luxury and the games room fun. Friendly owners who were there if you needed anything but didn't interfere. WillRead more miss waking up to the sound of the new born lambs and the birds. Would love to come back one day. Thank you for a wonderful week. Hide

Beautiful, clean, warm and cosy cottage. Perfect for sharing quality time with friends and very pet friendly. The owners were really friendly, helpful and welcoming.

Owners lovely and gave privacy even though live in adjoining cottage. Lovely Welsh village for a restful holiday! Hide

Lorraine

Nice cosy cottage in a good location for visiting the main tourist attractions in the area. The games room and hot tub ensure there is plenty to do even when the weather is poor.

Natalie

The best, unique cottage with an amazing garden. Hosts were brilliant and made us feel so at home. Would 100% recommend and use again

Paul

The cottage is in a lovely location. The cottage is very big inside with tvs in the back room and conservatory. The hot tub and games room were a massive bonus and our dog loved the garden. The owners were also really nice and very helpful.

Annemarie

Lovely Family and Dog Friendly Cottage. Beautiful garden, games room and hot tub. Kitchen small but creativity equipped, excellent set of sharp knives too. Close to some amazing beaches. Hosts very friendly and helpful. Hopefully we can return Thank you x

Karen

It certainly lives up to its name as there is a lot more space than you imagine. Although the kitchen is small it has everything you need and the fridge/freezer in the games room helped. The owners were lovely, warm, friendly and easy going. The hot tub was a big asset after walking all day and my daughter climbed Snowdon so much needed, lol. The g ames room was also well used in the evenings. It kept us all entertained. All in all, a gem and ideal location to get around, especially Anglesey.

Lynn

We had the most fantastic holiday staying in Tardis Cottage. Lovely comfortable and homely, quirky & charming property Lovely back garden to sit in and listen to the birds. The games room and hot tub are the icing on the cake. Ample parking, a beautiful base for exploring North Wales.

Janet

Lovely cottage, well equipped. Brilliant games room and excellent hot tub. The kitchen area is quite small but more than made up for by the good sized dining area and conservatory. The lounge is very cosy. The stairs to both bedrooms are quite steep but the bedrooms themselves are a good size and the beds were very comfortable. Nice dressing area i n the bedroom off the lounge. Lovely secure garden with plenty of seating areas and a BBQ.

Kelly

Fantastic accommodation & grounds. Excellent location. Dog friendly. We would definitely recommend. The hosts were friendly & helpful but not intrusive- perfect stay despite the weather!

Judith

Interesting and comfortable property with facilities suitable for young and old. Plenty of safe outdoor space for dogs, children and relaxation. As a group consisting of grandparents with a young family, we found the accommodation ideal as the one double bedroom is completely separate from the other double and single bedroom.

Nicola

Great cottage full of all the amenities you will ever need. Owners live right next door if any issues. Dogs loved the garden to run around in and the hot tub was great. Central location for North wales. Make sure you visit the Welsh Farm shop only 5 minutes down the road.

Moira

The Tardis was everything described on the site and more. Plenty of room for 5 of us & 2 dogs, lovely garden & spa & the games room a real bonus. Lots of thoughtful little extras too. We had a very enjoyable family get together.

Josie

Fab cottage truly in the countryside so you need a car to visit all lovely surrounding places. Hot tub an extra nice touch and games room. Highly recommend.

Jane

A wonderfully comfortable cottage to stay in, set in glorious countryside close to beautiful Bodnant gardens, the coast and mountains of Snowdonia. Our hosts were friendly and helpful in answering any questions we had.. The hot tub was a great bonus after a day out visiting many different places. We would definitely book again.

Absolute gem of a cottage in a lovely location. Lovely hosts close by. Hot tub and games room added bonus and dogs loved the garden. Would highly recommend

Karen

Had a fantastic week at The Tardis . The cottage is well equipped , clean and very comfortable. The games room and hot tub fantastic and well maintained. This is a lovely place for a family holiday would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday.

Danielle

The games room kept my children very entertained during the bad weather. I was unaware at the time of booking that the owners actually live in the cottage adjoined and although they tried to give us privacy and explained the garden was ours to use, I still felt a little uncomfortable walking across the garden to the hot tub (which itself is out of view) in my swimwear and towel. My dog was also anxious at first as the owners dog used the garden.

Janette

Owners were very helpful and recommended their vet when one of our dogs got an eye infection Suggested local walks for us with the dogs

Andy

Third visit to the cottage, absolutely stunning location. The cottage is comfy and we'll equipped. We enjoyed the hot tub and games room every day. Can't wait to go back again

Adrian

Very beautiful place, the open fire complete killer, totally loved our stay. Views and whole village I can find words to describe the peace and quiet you can experience. Totally recommend!

Neil

The cottage was lovely and the hosts were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The location was brilliant and the village pub served excellent food. The garden was large and enclosed and the extra of a hot tub made our stay very enjoyable

Jenny

A super cottage for a holiday. We were met by the owners who welcome us and pointed us in the direction of everything. A lovely welcome hamper awaited in the kitchen as well as the heating being on ready for our arrival. The cottage is well equipped and has everything you need for your stay. Kitchen has everything you need to cook including the equ ipment to wash up after (all supplied). The garden is lovely, a hot tub awaits (take flip flops to walk across the yard) and a fantastic games room

Chelsea

Very cosy and well equipped . Only down fall was unable to use hot tub on last 2 nights due to it being cold on one night and cleaned on the final night .

Keith

What a great cottage, owners very helpful, loved the hot tub and games room. A very relaxing holiday.

Keith

Our party consisted of 2 couples. Plenty of space for all of us. Garden/courtyard/games room/hot-tub/rooms were very clean and tidy. Owners were always ready to help if required, otherwise were not intrusive. Parking space for 2 (or even 3) cars in courtyard. Dogs welcome. Cottage was well equipped with all required amenities eg Washing machine, Fr idges, TV with all channels etc. Would certainly recommend the Cottage to anyone who likes a quiet holiday but with access to many areas of interest.
