Melanie September 2024

“Super cottage.”

Lovely welcome basket. We loved the conservatory and our dog loved the paddock! The paddock was a lovely addition to the cottage. The neighbours, Bob, William and the white horse were great, they even tolerated Millie saying hello! So many things to do in the area. Everything was a short drive from the cottage. Only down side was the mattress which was very soft.

- Melanie, September 2024
Paul September 2024

Peter January 2024

“Thanks for your great welcome and the welcome pack.”

There was pretty much everything we needed, including a garden and paddock for our Labrador to run in. It was great to know that we could charge the electric car on arrival making our first long trip much more relaxing. Rhiwlas is a great village with access to some lovely hill walks, close to Llanberis and Lake Padarn and many other places although it is a drive to the nearest pub or shop.

- Peter, January 2024

Thank you for your positive feedback. Looking forward to welcoming you back again one day. Property Owner

Chris November 2023

“We loved our time at Frondeg , very cosy cottage, only downside the chairs & sofa not the comfiest and no facilities in the village ie : local shop, pub etc.”

Apart from these very small issues we thoroughly enjoyed Frondeg our hosts Einir & Hefin were very welcoming & helpful, many thanks to them. Lin & Chris (Formby)

- Chris, November 2023

Thank you for your constructive feedback. We are aware that the chairs and sofa need updating and are awaiting delivery. Property Owner
Gina October 2023

“This is the 3rd time we've stayed at Frondeg and we love visiting, it's so comfortable and well equipped and we never tire of the lovely views.”

Einir & Hefin are such kind hosts and we always feel very spoilt by the lovely welcome basket. Located in the quiet village of Rhiwlas but really close to main routes and lots of amazing places to visit, we cannot recommend this property highly enough.

- Gina, October 2023

Thank you for your positive feedback. It was lovely to see you again. Looking forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner
Jennifer October 2023

“A fabulous cottage, the owners have taken so much care, lovely welcome pack, our dog was super safe in the garden and paddock.”

All of our needs were met, even a drying rack in the porch area. Great base with lots to do right on the doorstep. Highly recommended, Hefin and Einir were perfect hosts. Will be back. Thank you

- Jennifer, October 2023

Thank you for your positive feedback. Really appreciated. We look forward to welcoming you back again one day. Property Owner
Joe September 2023

“Frondeg is ideally situated for exploration of the N Wales area.”

The views are spectacular. The hosts are friendly and most generous. If you want a peaceful relaxing experience then sit in the summerhouse at dusk; watch the wind sculpt the clouds in to whisps of amber red and gold as the sun sets over the Menai strait and Anglesey. Glorious.

- Joe, September 2023

Thank you for your lovely feedback . We look forward to welcoming you back again one day Property Owner
Peter September 2023

“This is an absolutely brilliant property.”

Everything we needed was there, and the exceptionally friendly owners who live nearby were always available to answer any questions. The property is situated on the edge of a village with views to die for. Shame there is no pub in the village but there's a nice one with good food a short drive away. We had a great holiday and would love to come back in the future

- Peter, September 2023

Thank you for your positive feedback. It was lovely to meet you. We look forward to welcoming you back again one day. Property Owner

Elizabeth July 2023

“Wow, what a property!”

It's truly wonderful to be met by the owners Einir and Hefin, who are so friendly and warm, and they'll explain how things work and make sure you feel very welcome. The first thing you notice when you get into the property is how the photos do not do this cottage justice. It's absolutely beautiful throughout and the views are amazing from each aspect. The cottage has obviously been designed with this in mind as the layout really makes the most of it! You can see right over to Penrhyn Castle and Puffin Island when it's clear out. The cottage itself is immaculately clean with not a thing out of place, from the interior itself to the garden areas where there's flowers and a lovely garden area to sit if the weather's good, and a grassed area at the back where kids can play (or dogs have a run about safely!). There are also horses in the adjoining paddock which you can feed...they learn very quickly when you go out to see them that there's probably something tasty on offer. You'll have everything you'll need for your stay as everything has been thought of, there's even laundry facilities if you need them. We were spoilt for choice as to where to sit, from the comfy lounge to the sun room, and even the kitchen diner. The cottage is finished to such a high quality, with a clean, modern, yet cosy and homely finish. The perfect balance. In terms of location, if you're looking to explore North Wales, the location couldn't be better. 10 minutes from Anglesey (both bridges) and a whole bunch of places on the mainland. We stayed a week and barely scratched the surface of what was on offer. Whether you're looking for walks, beaches, or quaint villages to stop off at, you won't need to drive for more than around 40 minutes for any of them...and you'll be treated to breathtaking landscapes along the way! We've stayed in many, many cottages all over the UK and this is without a doubt our favourite. The property and location is fantastic, but it's truly the hospitality of the owners which make your stay that bit more special and sticks in your mind. Einir even dropped by on our last day with a birthday card and gift as it was my 60th birthday. If that's not the sign of a thoughtful host who truly cares about what they do, I don't know what is. I guarantee that if you book this cottage, it won't be your last visit!

- Elizabeth, July 2023

Thank you for your kind positive feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back again one day. Property Owner
Karen July 2023

Highly recommended

Simon May 2023

“The property was lovely!”

Wonderfully located, very clean, homely and all round fantastic. The outside garden spaces were perfect for our kids to run around in, and the horses in the adjoining field were very friendly and an unexpected bonus as our kids really enjoyed stroking them and feeding them carrots. The owner's welcome and basket of goodies on arrival was a nice touch after such a long drive, and the location was brilliant for local walks as we ventured off to explore the local hills, including watching an incredible sunset / moonrise from Moel Rhiwen. All in the all one of the best family holidays we've had and would 100% recommend / be back again.

- Simon, May 2023

Thank you for your kind feedback. We look forward to seeing you again one day. Property Owner

Gina October 2022

“Frondeg is a beautiful bungalow, it feels very warm and cosy and had everything that we needed (including an EV charger which is a big plus for us).”

It was lovely to meet the owners, Einir and Hefin, who were so friendly and helpful and left us a very generous welcome basket. The property is in a wonderful location with spectacular views, tucked away in a quiet village but with easy access to lots of beautiful places to visit nearby. Our visit was to meet up with our son at Bangor University and celebrate a birthday and the bungalow was an ideal rendezvous point and felt just like a 'home from home' - we hope to return!

- Gina, October 2022

Thank you for your kind comments. We look forward to seeing you again one day. Property Owner

Neville October 2022

“The cottage was clean , well preserved , cosy and a real home from home .”

Einir and Hefin were great hosts . They met us on arrival and explained everything to us . We had an issue with the central heating and Hefin came over immediately and sorted it out , despite it raining heavily. The location was perfect and central to all areas of interests and beaches . Our dog loved running around the paddock and watching the sheep and horses in the adjoining field. We would highly recommend this property to family and friends, and hope to return in the future.

Geoff September 2022

“Frondeg is a lovely bungalow with wonderful views of open countryside from both bedrooms as well as the kitchen-diner, the lounge and the small conservatory.”

The bungalow is well equipped and spacious with attractive gardens front and rear and then a large grassed area to the front which is fully enclosed and a perfect exercising area for dogs. A great place to stay with easy access to the attractions of the region. We were greeted on arrival by the owners Einir and Hefin who were very helpful and left a very generous welcome pack (best ever for us) including treats for our dog. We were sad to leave when our week was up

- Geoff, September 2022

Thank you for your kind comments. We look forward to welcoming you back again one day. Property Owner
Emma July 2022

“A lovely bungalow with amazing views out to Anglesey.”

A great place to spend a summer evening admiring the view. The location was perfect for visiting lots of places, all within 30-40 mins and we’ve seen some beautiful countryside and lakes during our stay. We found the bungalow to be very comfortable and clean and a well equipped kitchen. Had a nice welcome from the owners and received a generous welcome pack which even included treats for our dog. Our only negative feedback was that the flow from the shower left much to be desired for us and the kitchen knives could do with being sharpened or replaced. Otherwise we totally recommend staying here. We had a really enjoyable weeks holiday.

- Emma, July 2022

Thank you for your kind comments. We look forward to welcoming you back again one day. Property Owner

Peter May 2022

“The property was in a great position overlooking countryside and views over Anglesey.”

The cottage was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise and the owners came to meet us to make sure we had everything for our needs. Our dog enjoyed running around in the paddock and was fascinated by the sheep in the next field. Car parking was off road at the side of the property, enough room for two cars. A really lovely comfortable holiday home. Will definitely return one day.

- Peter, May 2022

Thank you for your kind comments. We look forward to seeing you again one day. Property Owner
Anne April 2022

“This was my second time at lovely Fron Deg.”

The cottage is so well thought-out with every practical thing you could possibly need. It gets harder to find holiday cottages elsewhere when you've stayed in one as perfect as this. There are so many lovely walks to enjoy from the doorstep and then you can surely never tire of the views from the front windows. I wish I could have stayed for months!

- Anne, April 2022

Thank you for your lovely comments. It was nice to welcome you back. Property Owner
Anne January 2022

“The cottage was very clean, comfortable and well thought out, being renovated especially as a holiday cottage: everything you could need and more was provided for a perfect holiday, even in January.”

My dog loved charging about in the secure garden and licking the horses' noses; I loved looking at the view and enjoyed many colourful dawns and sunsets from the living room window. The owners live just behind the cottage and are very friendly and helpful.

- Anne, January 2022

Thank you for your lovely comments. We look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner
Julia January 2022

“We had a lovely few days in this clean, comfortable and cosy cottage, which definitely deserves its 5 star status.”

We would love to return again.

- Ken, October 2021
Sonia August 2021

“Firstly the communication from the owners of the cottage was superb.”

The location of the cottage was great, towards the top of the village with wonderful views. The outside space was fab - my kids (and our dog) loved playing in the paddock and saying hello to the horses in the neighbouring field. The interior was sparkly clean upon arrival with a helpful welcome pack left by the owners. The facilities were excellent and the beds super comfy! The only negative of our holiday was the weather!! Would highly recommend this cottage as a place to stay. We will definitely be returning.

- Sonia, August 2021

Philippa June 2021

“The views and location were truly stunning Frondeg was in an excellent location for walking or touring.”

The Accomodation is finished to a lovely standard and the kitchen is well equipped if you prefer to cook. We especially loved the amazing panoramic views and watching the sunsets from the picture window and conservatory. It really made our holiday special. The hosts were helpful friendly and welcoming. The welcome basket was full of goodies for us and our dog. Having the paddock for dog to run and play in was yet another extra feature that made our stay truly lovely. Could not have wished for more. We have booked again for next year!

- Philippa, June 2021
Lynne June 2021

“What a fantastic find this cottage was, it was everything in the details plus more, on arrival it was spotlessly clean, lovely welcome hamper.”

The owners came to visit us after we had settled in and were lovely people and nothing was too much trouble, views from all windows were magnificent, if we are in the area again will definitely stay again.

- Lynne, June 2021
Jacqui June 2021

Samantha May 2021

“Lovely holiday cottage, was wonderful to arrive in a clean, beautifully equipped cottage after a long drive into Wales.”

The welcome pack was a nice touch as well. Einir provided excellent communication and was thoughtful to let us know where we could find outdoor furniture on a sunny day. Our toddler absolutely loved the house and garden, interacting with the animals next door. The kitchen is well equipped for any of your cooking needs. Fantastic stay, we highly recommend and look forward to returning in the future.

- Samantha, May 2021
Shamsher Singh April 2021

“One the first night the heating did not work.”

It was fixed the following day however the radiators were extremely noisy all night. we reported this issue and the owners sent someone around the next day. Still this problem was not fixed and we had a very loud radiator all night throughout our stay.

- Shamsher Singh, April 2021
Angela October 2020

“Frondeg is the best holiday cottage we have stayed in.”

Our expectations were exceeded the moment we opened the door as the bungalow smelt so fresh and clean. It was spotless, warm and so comfortable. We had absolutely everything we could possibly need as Hefin and Einir had gone to so much trouble and given a great deal of thought into making our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Our welcome gifts were thoughtful and meant we didn't need to find shops to get us started and instead relaxed with a cup of tea and slice of Bara Brith. Even Lily our golden retriever had treats! The bungalow is so convenient for exploring Anglesey and Snowdonia. We were at the foot of Snowdon within ten minutes and also did some lovely walks from the door including walking into Bangor and getting the bus back which stops opposite the house. The garden is beautiful, I took my watercolours and could have spent the week painting flowers and scenery. It's also a dog's holiday in itself as Lily loved racing around the field which was all enclosed and made friends with the horses in the adjoining field. Everything is beautifully kept and it was a pleasure to sit in the conservatory and admire the views across the fields, over Bangor and to the sea. Thank you for making our holiday so relaxing and memorable. We look forward to coming back.

- Angela, October 2020
Richard September 2020

- Richard, August 2020
Patricia August 2020

“Frondeg was so beautiful.”

Everything in the house was of top quality, super clean and wonderfully comfortable. The gardens were beautiful and having our own paddock was the icing on the cake. The views across to the Menaii Straits was spectacular and the mountains lay just behind us. There were friendly horses in the field next to us and every day they came to say hello and to receive a carrot or apple. The location was perfect. We seemed to be no more than 5 miles from so many gorgeous areas - Anglesey, Snowdonia, Caernarfon and many more. We have enjoyed many Sykes cottages over the years, but this one was truly perfect in every way.

- Patricia, August 2020
Clare July 2020

“Wonderful bungalow, fabulous host, superb view, great garden, amazing welcome pack.”

We absolutely loved it. Our dog was very, very pleased too. The best self catering cottage I have ever stayed in.

Millie October 2019

“We have recently returned from a wonderful week at Frondeg.”

Our expectations were far exceeded. Communication from the owners was excellent. They even popped over to see if we had settled in okay. The accommodation is immaculate, spacious, warm and very comfortable. The owners have literally thought of everything to make Frondeg 'home from home'. There is even a slow cooker and George Foreman Grill! The welcome pack included eggs, milk, bread, chocolates, cakes and even treats for our Border Collie who loved the space outside to run up and down with her Frisbee. The front and back gardens are completely secure. The views are incredible. We certainly hope to return next year.

- Millie, October 2019
William September 2019

“This holiday accommodation is home from home, whilst you definitely need a car to get out and about the views from the bungalow are spectacular with nothing but wild life for your neighbours.”

The hosts have thought of everything and should be very proud at the standards they are achieving. We would definitely recommend Frondeg to any friends and family wishing to holiday in this are?

- William, September 2019
Graham September 2019

“Lovely cottage, owners fantastic.”

One small criticism that our small Scottie dog struggled with the garden steps to the front and back garden, yet the description on the website makes no mention of these.

- Graham, September 2019
Alan September 2019

Sarah June 2019

“We would highly recommended Frondeg as holiday rental.”

A little gem of a cottage in quiet location with lovely views. We spent a long weekend and wish we could of stayed longer. The cottage and grounds were beautifully maintained and the welcome pack was a thoughtful touch with something for everyone, even the dog !

- Sarah, June 2019
Gordon May 2019

“The cottage is light and bright with lovely views across open countryside towards Anglesey and superb sunsets especially from the sunny patio.”

On arrival the cottage was warm and inviting and there was a very generous welcome pack. Everywhere was scrupulously clean. It is well furnished and equipped and stylishly decorated and has a very pretty garden. This is a lovely place to stay - can't recommend it enough.

- Gordon, May 2019
Paul April 2019

“Location of cottage excellent to visit North Wales and Anglesey area.”

Welcome tray was the best I've ever come across (Wine, cake, biscuits, dog treats, milk, tea, coffee...and more). Dog towels provided was a nice touch. Super clean and well furnished with some stylish pieces. Access to Amazon Fire Stick was an unexpected bonus although occasionally the internet speeds weren't sufficient to support this at the same time as supporting our own devices. Loved the views and garden area. Well fitted kitchen and super shower. Thanks for everything. Will definitely be recommending to friends.

- Paul, April 2019
R Downing Oct 2018

“Wonderful place to have a holiday.”

RHIWLAS

Bangor 5 miles; Caernarfon 7 miles.

Rhiwlas is a traditional Welsh village set on the foothills of the Snowdonia Mountain range with its own primary school and within easy access from the A55 Expressway, 4 miles from the city of Bangor with its University and with the famous town of Llanberis just 6 miles away. Llanberis offers excellent places to eat and drink, fabulous shopping, and is dominated by the grandeur of the Snowdon Massif. It is renowned as something of a 'mecca' for walkers and climbers, being the starting point for the ascent of Snowdon, the highest mountain in England and Wales. The ascent can be made either by the Snowdonia Mountain Railway, or on foot along one of the many routes to the summit. Just 7 miles from Llanberis, on the coast, is Caernarfon with its magnificent Castle and town walls and close by are National Trust properties at Penrhyn and Plas Newydd. With Anglesey and the entire North Wales coastline within easy reach, Rhiwlas is an excellent holiday location.

Note: EV charger is a Zappi and available at £8 per charge payable directly to the owners.
