“The cottage is absolutely lovely and has brilliant views.”

Comfortable beds and a great open plan living area. Two of my kids particularly loved the crog loft and one spent most of his time sitting in the window on the stairs reading. Despite sleeping 5 there was only enough stools and place mats for 4 at the island so one of us had to sit on the sofa to eat dinner. I think a couple extra place mats and a fifth folding stool would be helpful. The island is definitely big enough for one more. WiFi signal can be a bit spotty due to signal strength and DNS filters, a VPN is highly recommended if you wish to use it reliably. For Pokémon Go lovers there is a pokéstop at the end of the drive (5-10 minute walk down a single track road) and there is a spawn point at the site. Loved the private garden area for the dog and there's a few nice little walks nearby. We were here for a funeral in Brecon and it provided the perfect hideaway and basecamp for us. We visited Llandudno, Llanberis and the Sygun Copper Mines while we were here. We also traveled by electric car and there are plenty of fast chargers within a 10-15 minute drive of the cottage and had no issues with using them.

“A beautifully located property that is being sadly neglected.”

The rear garden area seems to be modelled on a sink estate - foot high grass, rusty wheel that should be dumped, broken bits of tile standing against a wall and crappy furniture. It’s a sad waste of its location. Inside the fridge doesn’t work properly, there is no welcome or guidance notes, most of the furniture needs updating. For me the very worst thing is the lack of mattress or pillow protectors on the beds - just yucky! The owners should be ashamed that they have allowed what should be a fantastic property deteriorate like this. The shower is great and that’s about it!

The property

Bangor 3.6 miles.

Resting in sublime countryside, Alfie’s Hideout near Bangor, Gwynedd, is a chic holiday cottage perfect for a group getaway with family and friends.

Forming part of a tasteful conversion of traditional dairy barns, Tyn-y-Ffridd, the accommodation is stylish and well-presented, with your holiday beginning as soon as you slide open the patio doors and step into the contemporary, open-plan living space with its attractive, vaulted ceiling helping to create a real feeling of light and space.

Kick off your shoes and take a seat on the comfy sofas which offer breath-taking views of the surrounding countryside and provide the perfect spot for chilling out and enjoying spending time together.

The rustic kitchen is functional and thanks to the open-plan layout means cooking can be a truly sociable experience, so while the designated chef gets on with whipping up a culinary storm, you can keep them company by pouring yourself a glass of your favourite tipple and taking a seat at the breakfast bar.

When the sun sets over the captivating countryside, step out into your private garden area and soak up the views while sipping on a drink and breathing in the fresh Snowdonia air – this is what holidays are made of!

All that fresh air will no doubt have tired you out, so choose from two double bedrooms, one with an authentic mezzanine Welsh ‘crog’ loft where you can enjoy those ever-changing rural views.

After a refreshing shower in the contemporary shower room and a quick coffee in the garden, you’ll be raring to go and explore the delights of Snowdonia on the doorstep.
