Dolmurgoch Snowdonia Cottage

Everything 😊

Nothing

The welcome gifts were great thank you Bernard and Eira! We stayed for 2 weeks and enjoyed the location and had a nice relaxing time. The kitchen is well equipped for self catering requirements. The cottage is well placed to explore North Wales, Snowdon is roughly 40 minutes away by car for the Train up to the summit, or attempt climbing it on one of the paths. Many walks in the surrounding area also. There is also Pont-y-Pant train station 5 minutes walk from the Cottage, that you can catch a train into Llandudno which we did a few times, for 3 of us the cost of a day return was reasonable, and takes under an hour to get there on the Conwy valley line. Dolwyddelan is a short walk away or 5 minutes drive where they have a local Pub where the locals made us feel very welcome, and also a hotel where you can eat if you want to dine out. Betws-y-Coed is 5 miles away which has a wider selection of shops and restaurants also.

My family and I had the best time in Snowdonia, the cottage was better than we expected. Full equipped, clean and with a homely feeling. The owners are amazing and left us a lovely welcome treat. We had the best time ever. A 100% recommended.

Absolutely remote and pieceful. Property cosy and tidy. Nice nature around property. Host very helpful.

Temperature difference upstairs and downstairs. Upstairs a lot more hotter. Lack of ventilation in bathroom, window locked.

Lovely comfortable cottage, warm & cosy with many walks on your doorstep. Nicely furnished. Loved having the log burner in the evenings. Breakfast provisions & treats greatly appreciated!

Comfortable, homely, spacious, great facilities with everything we needed, kind host included provisions on arrival, great heating and shower. Great rural location for walking, and central location for exploring Snowdonia.

Only small things: Thicker blinds in the main bedroom, mending some fixtures in bathroom.

Dolmurgoch is a lovely cosy cottage down a secluded track, surrounded by trees & countryside. The track is single lane with passing points but we never encountered any other cars while we were there, as it is only used by a couple of other cottages and is not a through road. The cottage has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. It is cosy & comfortable with central heating if needed. It has a little stream at the edge of the garden which ran quite heavy when we arrived as it had been raining all day and we could hear it when we were in bed, but it did die down after a couple of days to a gentle trickle. It is lovely hearing the sheep in the next field and they came right up to the gate a couple of times. We were surprised by the lack of birdlife at first but I suppose it was due to heavy rain as we put a couple of feeders out & there were loads coming after a couple of days. We didn't manage the track you can walk to the local village, as after we went through the archway under the train line, there was a massive puddle more like a lake, so be warned if there has been a lot of rain. Be warned about the midges - we did sit out a couple of nights and didn't think they'd be a problem as they are so tiny but we did get bitten. Betws-y-Coed is only about 10 mins drive away. It is a busy village with shops, restaurants & bars and also has a super river running through with crashing rapids under the bridge. Just the other side of Betws-y-Coed there is Swallow Falls which is worth going to see & only costs £2 each. Llandudno is only about 40 mins drive if you want a day at the seaside and the tramway up to The Great Orme is a fun thing to do.

The A470 road was closer than we expected. Although you can't see it because of the trees, there is a bit of road noise sometimes with motorbikes etc whizzing past. The bath isn't the most comfortable to relax in as it seems a funny shape but that's just personal choice I suppose.

nice and private location
