Doors lead off to the bedrooms (one double, one with bunks) and large shower room.

“Idyllic mountain retreat...”

“The Perfect Welsh Holiday Cottage”
We were drawn into the Quarryman's Cottage by the pictures of the quaint, very British countryside interior and relative isolation and when we arrived we were delighted to find it looked even bet… More

“Quaint, quirky, and quite splendid views.”
A nice wee place with a very authentic cottage experience - thick slate walls, wooden beams, and a prominent log burner stove. It is rather small in both total and room size and thus best suited for a… More

“Very small, but a good base for the whole area”
I must admit to having mixed feelings about this property. The photos provided here are perhaps a little flattering, and certianly a little out of date. On the plus side, the owner is very helpful, … More

Response from the owner Thank you for your very detailed review which highlights many charms of our 200 year old cottage. I'm glad you enjoyed your holiday. Yes, there is no internet. This is deliberate as many guests tell us they prefer to ‘switch off’ whilst on holiday. However, there is a fantastic 4G network reception, if needed. Many guests prefer to eat out whilst on holiday but we usually make meals using the 4 ringed hob, microwave and small oven. I wonder how many clothes you took for an outdoor holiday which could not be stored in the bedroom drawers? Did you make use of the porch for hanging coats, boots etc? Water pressure in remote parts of the country varies during peak times which is why there is a power shower. As you point out, there is plenty of hot water which can be controlled using the timer. I’m glad you’d recommend us to ‘outdoorsy’ people. By this I assume you mean guests who enjoy unspoilt, remote areas of outstanding natural beauty, who recognise good value for money self-catering accommodation. At least you now realise that being a quarryman wouldn’t have suited! Best wishes Ian

“We loved it.”
I was really worried about spending a summer holiday in North Wales, we normally camp, this cottage was perfect, really great value and cosy and warm, it had everything e needed, the beds were comfortable, it is so peaceful.. The cottage is small, our kids are 9 and 12 and it was just right. We spent days on the beach, in the mountains, walking the coastal path, we found beautiful waterfalls to walk to locally. We also visited Bounce Below which is 10 minutes away and completely brilliant. We would use the cottage again and recommend it to friends.
