Janet
We had an amazing week here. Great location and the cottage was clean, comfortable and well stocked.
Jayne
Cottage was extremely clean and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen with everything needed to cook a full meal. Huge fridge and separate freezer which is wonderful and not seen in other cottages I've stayed in. The hot tub was used every night and a lovely addition to this cottage. Location very quiet both during day and night. The welcome pack wRead moreas wonderful too. Excellent location for walking or going for lunch in Llanberis which is only 10 mins drive away. Hide
Rebecca
Wonderful holiday cottage with all the home comforts. Great location for climbing Snowdon and hot tub relaxing after the walk. Three couples shared the cottage and there was plenty of space for everyone.. We would definitely recommend to other guests.
Sarah
This cottage is located in a very special place, so beautiful and peaceful, with the mountains of Snowdon outside the windows and the sound of the stream from the garden. A pub serving food is 2 minutes walk away! The cottage is very spacious and well equipped. They even provided enough toilet paper and cleaning supplies, dish washer tablets, soap Read moreetc, all the essentials that you sometimes have to bring with you on a self catering holiday were already there! We loved the welcoming hamper on arrival, lovely surprise! Our dog loved it too and was safe to roam in the enclosed garden area. Definitely recommend and if we come back to this area, would definitely stay here again. Hot tub was perfect after a hike on the mountains! Loved it! A perfect holiday retreat! Hide

This beautiful cottage is set in an idyllic area a stone throw from lovely pubs and outdoor areas, something for everyone. Spotless inside and a home from home feeling as soon as you walk in just a beautiful place to be.
Pete
We had a fantastic stay here, we were a group of 5 with two young children and the cottage was perfect. Plenty of space for the little ones outside to run round and everyone enjoyed the hot tub. The cottage is much larger than appears from the outside and in the pictures, the location is so peaceful and beautiful, we enjoyed the nights sat outsideRead more on the decking looking at the surrounding mountains and listening to the river. Close to Llanberis for shops etc. Would stay here again, we all loved it. Hide
Kelly
We absolutely loved our stay at the property, it was comfortable and very well equipped. It was plenty big enough for the 5 of us and the hot tub was a delight. The location was also perfect for exploring north wales. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch. We would definitely return in future and have already recommended it to friends.
Rebecca
Just back from such a wonderful stay at Swn Y Nant. Beautiful cottage with everything you could need. The hot tub was a welcome addition and so lovely to get in given the weather was so cold. Situated in a stunning location with Mountain Views all around. We walked to the local pub which was so welcoming and lovely too. We cant wait to book agaiRead moren for the summer time. Everything about our stay was wonderful. Hide
Ashley
Beautiful area and cottage, unfortunately the hot tub was unusable the last two days, it is a shame the owners would not empty and refill it for us, other than this it was lovely as always. Thankyou.
Brenda
Fantastic location, amazing scenery, lovely warm and cosy, great touches for the dog! Very homely, loved the extras!
Bev
A lovely property in a beautiful location. Well stocked cottage, clean and spacious. We received a fabulous welcome pack and the hot tub was a welcome addition and used every evening.
Claire
Lovely, warm, spacious cottage within easy reach of some fantastic days out in the local area.
Hayley
The cottage was immaculately clean upon arrival. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. The pub is fantastic and a very short, easy walk from the cottage. It is in a lovely location, and found with ease. The garden is lovely, although depending on your type of dog, it may not be classed as secure. There is an accessible slope down to the fast flowRead moreing stream. Thankfully, our dog was uninterested, but I could imagine this would be a nightmare with a water loving dog. The hot tub was clean, and checked during our stay. The cottage is exceptionally close to a neighbouring property, however it didnt affect us. Hide
Sam and Steve
2 weeks of changing weather but what an amazing place. The cottage was lovely in a beautiful setting with attention to detail. Plenty of hikes including Snowdon with much appreciated hot tub post effort. We go home exhausted but rested.
Lucie
Wonderful base for exploring. We managed the summit of Snowdon. Lovely and clean throughout.
Susie
Lovely bungalow in a perfect location for mountain walks and easy reach of nice beaches. Property felt spacious and comfortable (we were 4 adults) and hot tub welcome after a day's walk. We enjoyed the welcome pack.
Darren
This property is excellent for families and friends, great location with some excellent walking opportunities nearby. The kitchen is great for cooking for all and the hot tub by the stream makes in really special.
Suzi and James
We really enjoyed out stay here at your beautiful family run accommodation. The scenery is stunning. Definitely worth a visit to Watkin Path Waterfall and Beddgelert village. Thanks so much.
Ray
The cottage was very clean and had the basics we would have expected. The person who does the changeovers is clearly doing a good job. The area is beautiful and we visited many great places. However, we felt that this cottage was overpriced for the standard of the fixtures and contents. The towels have all seen better days, there was only one teRead morea towel to last four people a week, the kitchen knives are blunt and all the interior doors and handles are cheap and flimsy and creak loudly, which meant no one could lie-in if others were up. One bedroom door can only be shut properly by slamming it. The dining table is squeezed into a small area which meant that with four people at least one person had to get up to allow others in or out of the space. Before booking holiday cottages we always check that all fuel and electricity is included in the price. Your description states that logs are "provided" but in fact it is only a starter pack of logs that is provided. This should be made clear. We wondered why no previous reviews had mentioned any of these issues, so we re-checked the website. Having checked over twenty different properties on your website we did not find a single review with any comment that could be deemed even slightly negative. Clearly you are cherry-picking the reviews you allow your customers to see. The kindest way to describe this practice is misleading, some might say it is simply dishonest. For this reason we would not use your company again. Hide
Julie
The property was lovely and was maintained to a high standard. Good communication from Original Cottages.

Lauren and Oscar
Had a fabulous time despite some interesting weather! Walked up Snowdon and explored the local towns and Anglesey- topped off with a few pints at the Vaynol Armss and dinner at restaurant in Llanberis. Loved Rumdoodles shop and cafe in llanberis too
Alison
Fantastic location, had a wonderful time
Gavin
To help our son celebrate his 21st birthday we decided to take him on a walking holiday to Wales. The location of the property couldnt have been better, fantastic views all around. The property itself was clean, tidy and well equipped even shampoo to wash our dog.
Jack
Beautiful scenery to relax and unwind in. Thank you very much
Irene Sabina
Everything was amazing there. I would say though when you first arrive there and its in winter, the property is very very very cold so need to take care if you have young babies. Apart from that, it was great. The property is very beautiful! ?? thank you very much!
