Another wonderful cottage from Rural Retreats! Stunning location set in the beautiful Bodnant estate. Ideal for peacful uniterupted walks through woodland and open fields. Stunning views of the Snowdonia range and Colwyn Bay a short walk from the cottage. Lovely cottage and well equipped. Parking for one vehicle but you could squeeze another one in if required. Some minor defects at the time of our stay. - the large oven and grill didnt work and the shower leaked into the lounge area below, both reported. (We used the bath instead) Little or no internet and only patchy at best, but none of this mattered to us as we were there to get away from it all for a few days. Great log burner, well stocked with logs. Very peaceful. The only people we saw in three days were a sheep farmer and his dog and a lady walking her dog. Great farm shop nearby with a good restaurant and cafe thst does lovely breakfasts and lunches.

Cottage was excellent and it suited our needs. It was very comfortable. The approach Road a bit tricky for a conventional car. TV didn’t seem to work very well, it wasn’t easy to control.
