The cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Parking was easy. The enclosed garden was great for the dogs and for us to sit in. The cottage is very well situated for all amenities in the village as well as the lake, the paths to Y Wyddr, and plenty of lovely walks. We would definitely recommend it.

Brilliant location for exploring Llanberis, must be the closest to the Llanberis path up to Snowdon. You can also watch the mountain railway train go up from the garden. We had a great time exploring the local area Dolbardan castle and Arddu waterfall are an easy walk away. The cottage is lovely, warm and welcoming, a really good size and well kitted out with everything we needed. The only comment we could make if we were being really picky is it might be an idea to have a sign, or some markings on the car parking space outside - just to ensure people know exactly where to park. We think we parked in the right place, and nobody said we had not.... But we were not entirely sure!
