About this property

A well-appointed, character terraced cottage in the centre of the popular village of Llanberis, on the edge of Snowdonia, with nearby walking access to Snowdon and the pretty lake of Llyn Padarn. Located on a residential side street, this charming cosy cottage is ideally situated for all the amenities of the village and will delight couples, friends and families wishing to explore the area. Homely and tastefully finished, it offers welcoming open plan living accommodation across the ground floor with a delightful sitting area with stone inglenook fireplace housing a traditional woodburner. The lovely oak flooring extends through to a bespoke kitchen area, which is well equipped, and a dining area, ideal for a leisurely breakfast before setting off for a day of walking and exploring. There are three cosy bedrooms, one on the second floor enjoying a glimpse of Snowdon from the skylights, along with a modern first floor family bathroom. Outside is an enclosed slate patio area to the rear, which enjoys a sunny aspect in the afternoon, ideal for a relaxed glass of wine before heading out for a meal in one of the many eating establishments a short walk away. With plenty of pretty walks leading from the doorstep, each embracing the fantastic surrounding scenery, there are lots of lovely things to see on foot. If you’re feeling a little less energetic then let the train take the strain and take the Snowdon Mountain Railway to the summit of this popular peak, with the platform a five minute walk away. There is so much to see and do within very easy reach, with the Llanberis Lake Railway, National Slate Museum and Electric Mountain area all within easy reach. A little further afield you can enjoy Zipworld Titan and Caverns, the longest 4-man zip wire in Europe, Bounce Below underground trampoline, along with the magnificent slate caverns at Llechwedd - all located at Blaenau Ffestiniog, which is a stunning drive away. The North Wales Coast, dotted with ancient castles, is also easily accessible from this delightful cottage, which is a great base for exploring both coast and country at any time of the year.

Dominated by the grandeur of the Snowdon Massif, Llanberis is flanked by two lakes, Llyn Padarn and Llyn Peris and is one of the most popular mountain tourist centres in the Snowdonia National Park. In fact, Llanberis is something of a ‘mecca’ for walkers and climbers, being the starting point for the ascent of Snowdon - the highest mountain in England and Wales. The ascent can be made either by train, on the Snowdon Mountain Railway, or on foot along one of the many routes to the summit.

    The cottage is situated in a good location close to the lake. The parking situation in the street is slightly difficult but there is a pay and display car park close by. The cottage is very well equipped in terms of crockery and cutlery. The only downside (this was the only downside) was that the cottage smelt of damp, wet dog which was a big let down and on reflection I now wished I had book a pet friendly cottage.

    This was a great location for us to explore Snowdonia National Park. And thank you for outfitting the kitchen with everything we needed!!

    ! We found the listing to be accurate and clear in its description and photographs.It is well equipped terraced house and fairly typical of most listings in Llanberis. Yes parking can be an issue if you’re super lazy, but you can load and unload with no problems outside the property, and can park for free in many of the side streets. The beds are clean with sweet smelling bedding and the best firm mattresses to aid a good nights sleep. The biggest negative for us was the continuous late night noise on the road directly outside the house. On every night of the stay there were drunk people shouting right through until early hours, 4/5am! Location is absolutely perfect otherwise. Super close to shops and cafes in the village . The lake is literally a 5 minute walk away. We loved it and would definitely return again but take ear plugs for your stay :)
