Snaptrip says

Fron Goch is a spacious cottage with comfortable beds and stunning views, appreciated for its peaceful location and ample facilities. Guests enjoyed the welcome pack and the electric car charger. The property's character and the local area's attractions added to the positive experience, despite some concerns over driveway steepness and traffic noise.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with several guests finding the property dirty upon arrival, mentioning cobwebs, dust, and dirty kitchenware. However, some guests reported the property as clean, leading to a below-average score.

The location is praised for its beautiful views and peacefulness, with plenty of local attractions and walks. However, the busy road and challenging driveway access have been noted as drawbacks by some guests.

Guests consistently mention the comfortable beds and cosy atmosphere of the cottage, with its spacious rooms and snug fires. The comfort of the property is a highlight in the reviews.

Facilities are generally good, with special mentions of the electric car charger and entertainment options. However, there are several reports of maintenance issues such as a broken washing machine and the need for a deep clean, which affects the score.

The welcome pack with essentials like milk, bread, and eggs was appreciated by some guests, indicating thoughtfulness. However, it's important to note that such gifts are not guaranteed and may vary with each stay.
