Wonderful cottage with awesome views too. The cottage was spotless and had everything we could need. A lovely welcome package waiting for us too, which was really nice. 3 bedrooms and a TV in 2 of them! Mr & Mrs Thomas were very nice, friendly and welcoming and are there if you need them. It is situated in a great location, as it's easy to get around to any location in North Wales. My wife, I and our 2 nieces from the USA had a great week and it was nice to come back to a very comfortable cottage at the end of the day. We would certainly come back here, when we come back to beautiful North Wales.
