Location couldn't be faulted - we loved the seclusion/solitude and sound of the river and birds. House is extremely comfortable with the addition of two sitting rooms suiting our needs perfectly. We used the hot tub daily, after days out to Aber Falls, Betys y Coed, LLandudno and Conwy - all places worth visiting.

The house was beautiful, welcoming and warm. It had everything we needed. The river outside was perfect. You can open your window and hear the river. Lots of wildlife and beautiful night sky on a clear night. The little bridge you come over is a little scary but adds to being in the middle of nowhere. I loved this holiday.

Fully enclosed huge garden (smaller dogs may get under the gate, we have two Labradors).
