“Comfortable, clean and well equipped.”

A really nice place to stay in a good location

A really nice place to stay in a good location

- Andrew, October 2024
Emma August 2024

“Lovely clean property with a surprise addition of an outside kitchen.”

Spacious and well equipped. We had everything we needed. Perfect location with so many things to do in the local area and walks literally from the doorstep. Couldn’t have been better!

- Emma, August 2024
Asha June 2024

“My friends and I loved our stay here.”

It was a perfect size for all 8 of us and is really well looked after. The outside kitchen ended up being where we spent most of our time because it was so cosy even when it was raining outside. The hot tub and poolroom is also a nice touch. The place is only a few minutes drive from places like betws y coed, zip world and there are plenty of waterfalls and walks nearby. The only issue with the place is that the main shared bathroom didn’t lock which was a little awkward with my friends but everything else is perfect.

- Asha, June 2024
Nicola June 2024

“Lovely cottage, pictures don’t do it justice.”

The outside area is really lovely and was very popular with our group booking. Would stay again and have already recommended to others

- Nicola, June 2024
Mary May 2024

“Lovely property in a nice location.”

Everything you needed was supplied. Only one complaint the access road to the cottage needs attention. However we had a lovely family holiday and the welcome tray was appreciated. Thank you Jane and Huw.

- Mary, May 2024
Suresh December 2023

“Great place, plentry of room with a homy feeling.”

Loved the hot tub Nd pool table. ( though it was little hard due to space to play pool). Good view and private. Would definitely recommend.

- Suresh, December 2023
Duncan September 2023

“Hot tub was a lovely start to the day for us.”

Great to have a King size bed and spacious bedroom. The sitting-room lights were low...and we kept forgetting ! A super quiet spot for a holiday.

- Duncan, September 2023

Thank you for the great review I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Peter September 2023

“Lovely cottage, well equipped, superb location.”

Would certainly recommend.

- Peter, September 2023
Peter September 2023

“We had a lovely stay at Maes Madog.”

The place was a perfect base for our trip to Wales and situated perfectly for climbing the mountain and other activities nearby. The property was really clean and well stocked. And the Jacuzzi was incredible for our sore legs after the climb. Also the games room was an added bonus. It's a 10 minute drive into Betws-y-Coed which has plenty of choice for places to eat and camping/hiking gear shops should you need it. I would highly recommend staying here and we will definitely be staying again in the future

- Peter, September 2023

Thank you Peter for the great review. I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Alun August 2023

“We had a really enjoyable week at Maes Madog.”

The property was clean and comfortable with excellent facilities and the location was perfect for our adult family group. The double and king sized beds were comfy but one of our group thought the super king and twin beds were far too soft.

- Alun, August 2023
Deborah July 2023

“Wow what a lovely home from home.”

We have just returned from a fabulous week at Maes Madog. Four Adults and three children. Great cosy warm cottage with ample room for us all and everything spotlessly clean. Lovely welcome gifts were much appreciated. Fantastic hot tub which we used each evening to chill and relax and an unexpected superb new BBQ and seating area. The boys loved the pool table. We loved the location and had some great day trips including Llandudno and Snowdon, Bala lake and the Llyn peninisula. Lovely owner Jane is just a phone call away to deal promptly with any queries or issues. We would dearly love to return one day. Such a peaceful idyllic location. Thankyou.

- Deborah, July 2023
Graeme July 2023

“We had an excellent 4 night stay.”

The cottage is really lovely, warm and comfortable and the newly built, covered seating/BBQ area and fire was a bonus. It's so peaceful, you really feel like you're in the middle of nowhere - even though Betws-y-coed and all its charm is only a short distance away.

- Graeme, July 2023
Joanne July 2023

“Exceeded our expectations in setting and location.”

Toasty warm interior with lovely added modern touches to compliment the traditional aspects of the farmhouse. The hot tub and covered outdoor seating area was exceptional and very much appreciated but we missed our dogs!

- Joanne, July 2023
Elaine July 2023

“We had a lovely two night stay in the large Cottage which sleeps 8 , the hot tub was perfect especially with the lovely countryside views , the pool table was fun too.”

The cottage was lovely and clean and had all the equipment needed for cooking etc . There was a brand new BBQ area with seating under cover which wasn’t mentioned in the cottage info , the BBQ was gas The photos advertised don’t do the Cottage justice , they could do with being updated The double bedroom downstairs was a very small double but it does have its own toilet and shower , the twin room and double upstairs have to share and the very large bedroom upstairs has its own We went as a family myself and husband , 3 sons and two of their partners , we will definitely go again , the communication with the host was very good too and she left us a lovely welcome gift of wine, Prosecco , welsh biscuits and chocolates, Thankyou

- Elaine, July 2023
Gary June 2023

“We had a lovely stay at Maes Madog, absolutely stunning location with rolling countryside.”

Very peaceful. Good location for the Forest activities, picturesque villages and a 40 minute ride to Llandudno. The cottage was clean and cosy, with everything you should need for a comfortable stay. Would definitely recommend, we hope to return soon.

- Gary, June 2023
Tom May 2023

“Great four night stay at the cottage, stayed with four adults and two kids all though would comfortably sleep eight people.”

Location of the property is great, it is on a private lane and just over a mile out of Betws-y-Coed, plenty to do in the local towns and coastal areas. The cottage itself was clean and spacious, had plenty of towels and all amenities as described. Topped off by the hot tub in the large garden with views over a small valley. Will be back.

- Tom, May 2023
Geoffrey April 2023

“We had a lovely week in the cottage.”

It is off the beaten track with wonderful views and very peaceful with only the wildlife for company. The cottage had plenty of room for the eight of us and the kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed.The only negative was the Extractor fan above the Hob was not working so when we were cooking we had to open the back door. The Hot tub was a real bonus and great to use after a hard day on the mountains whilst the Pool table gave all the entertainment we needed in the evening.

- Geoffrey, April 2023
Ethan April 2023

“Lovely welcome from the owner at the start of our stay.”

Lovely views, lovely property and near many attractions

- Ethan, April 2023

I'm glad you enjoyed your stay Ethan! Thank you for leaving the cottage so tidy. Property Owner
Margaret April 2023

“Maes Madog is in a lovely situation with great views and splendid bird life.”

The old farmhouse has been extended with a modern kitchen, and when the heating failed (it was a cold week with snow - in April!) the owner was helpful and ensured the issue was fixed swiftly. Where we felt let down was in the description of the en suite in the upstairs double bedroom, which clearly stated there was a WC when in fact there wasn't. This led to a lack of privacy which was not ideal in a multi-generational holiday. As is often the case in holiday homes there was no food storage space other than the fridge/freezer, this is a common complaint. Overall we were happy with the accommodation and enjoyed our stay, and the hot tub was a great success (and so well maintained).

- Margaret, April 2023
Wendy February 2023

“Excellent cottage in a beautiful location.”

We really enjoyed the pool table and hot tub! The log burner was a challenge to start with (even though we ourselves have one) but we eventually found some dry wood and got it going! We were a group of 8 and we all had enough space to be together and to have a successful long weekend. There are some gorgeous walks and plenty of places to explore..

- Wendy, February 2023
Amelia February 2023

“Beautiful private property with everything you need, a very well equipped kitchen & a cosy living room & lovely hot tub to relax in.”

The hosts were fantastic with great communication & we will definitely be returning!

- Amelia, February 2023
Joanna December 2022

“Dressing gowns for the hot tub would have been nice and a mop and bucket that we could have used during our stay to keep the floors cleaner.”

Knife steel would have been good to sharpen the knives. The free logs was brilliant and very convenient. Location was superb and the cottage was very comfortable considering we had full occupancy - lovely, spacious, warm and comfortable. Ideal place for a base to explore Snowdonia.

- Joanna, December 2022
Duncan October 2022

“Great property in the middle of the Countryside.”

Lots of free parking. Property warm with good facilities and spacious rooms. Hot tub was very enjoyable with fatastic views. Would recommend. Items that need attending to: Front door sticks on floor, hard to open Poor lighting from front doot to carpark Wall to upstairs WC has glazing so people can see inside when you are inside No storage space in kitchen for food as all cupboards etc. are full of glasses, plates, pots etc. only fridge available Few hooks to bathrooms to hang clothes No trays for soap, shampoo to showers No place to put toiletries in downstair bathroom have to put on the floor

- Duncan, October 2022

Thank you for your review I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for all your recommendations. The locksmith is booked for tomorrow to look at the door, there is lighting outside the switch was in the lounge. We also try and use dark sky friendly lighting. I will rearrange the cupboards in the kitchen because there is plenty of food storage space. There is a cupboard under the sink in the downstairs bathroom to keep toiletries. As you stated the property is in the middle of the countryside, only cows and sheep from the field will be able see in through the window. Thank you Jane Property Owner
Trina October 2022

“Absolutely beautiful place, we really enjoyed our break here, perfect in every way.”

We will all book again at some point x

- Trina, October 2022

Thank you Trina for your review. I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. I hope you will visit us again soon. Property Owner
Stephen September 2022

“This was a fantastic cottage to stay in with a group of friends.”

It was very comfortable and well equipped. We loved the rural setting and it's a great location to explore and walk the northern Snowdonia National Park from. The hot tub and outdoor seating area were fab. We would love to go back sometime in the future.

- Stephen, September 2022

Thank you Stephen for your review, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay . I hope you will visit us again soon. Property Owner
Matthew September 2022

“Lovely tidy and well equipped house, with great facilities.”

Local pub has shut down, but we just went in to the local town anyway which has plenty of options on pubs and restaurants. Great weekend trip. Thanks

- Matthew, September 2022
Sue August 2022

“We thought the farmhouse was lovely really loved the pool room and hot tub ...”

We thought the farmhouse was lovely really loved the pool room and hot tub There was everything we needed to have a great holiday I would have maybe liked a cosy lamp in the room , there was a lamp but no bulbs were in it and also maybe hooks behind bathroom doors to hang towels up , but on the whole it was great

- Sue, August 2022
Nina July 2022

“We had a wonderful time at Maes Madog and enjoyed exploring the area.”

We loved the hot tub and pool table and the photos on Sykes didn't do it justice as there have been a number of improvements including a new en-suite and canopy over the hot tub. The only negatives we have are concerning the listing as the pub within walking distance closed some years ago and the property has no tumble dryer, which would have been useful as we had wet and muddy mountain bike gear to wash and dry.

- Nina, July 2022
Paul July 2022

“The cottage is only a few miles from Betws-y-Coed and ideally situated to explore North Wales.”

It had everything we wanted and suited our needs. Overall, we had a lovely week despite the rainy weather for the first few days. We spent most evenings playing in the garden or in the kitchen playing card games. It was also great to come home after a long day out and relax in the hot tub. The welcome gifts were a nice touch and appreciated by all. Would recommend to family and friends and possibly return in the future.

- Paul, July 2022
Julie June 2022

“Would recommend.”

Ideal, peaceful location.

- Julie, June 2022
Kathryn February 2022

“Excellent holiday cottage, warm and spacious with plenty of room to spread out but also to come together to enjoy a great holiday.”

- Kathryn, February 2022
Sally February 2022

“A super weekend stay!”

Only wish we could have stayed for a longer period. Everything we could have wished for and more. A beautiful cottage full of charm and charisma. Thank you for allowing us to share it.

- Sally, February 2022
Margaret November 2021

“Fabulous cottage in gorgeous surroundings Can't fault it and have already booked for next year”

- Margaret, November 2021
Stephanie September 2021

“The only thing that would have made it perfect would have been perhaps the inclusion of a small welcome package including milk, bread etc.”

It has not detracted from our enjoyment of the property or our time there which was delightful.

- Stephanie, September 2021

Thank you for your comment. I would just like to explain that a welcome pack was left consisting of two bottles of wine, chocolates and Welsh cakes. We always leave a welcome pack for our guests. Thank you Property Owner
Neil July 2021

“Lovely, lovely converted Farmhouse in idyllc setting.”

Sat in the hottub looking out at the Milky Way. Perfect.

- Neil, July 2021
Lynda June 2021

“Very clean well equipped cottage.”

Perfect setting and well placed for visiting many of the main attractions in North Wales. Only thing that would have made it better is if there were some sun loungers to be able to lie in the garden, which was glorious in the perfect weather we had. Also anyone over 5ft needs to be very wary of the very low doorway between living room and games room. there were many , many bumped heads throughout the holiday.

- Lynda, June 2021
Chloe May 2021

“We enjoyed every minute of our holiday, would definitely go back again”

- Chloe, May 2021
Christine September 2020

“Great cottage, with stunning views, ideal for a family or group of friends.”

- Christine, September 2020
Morwenna July 2020

“Lovely old Welsh farmhouse, beautifully restored and renovated, in a tranquil rural setting.”

The owners were very friendly and helpful. Beds super comfy. Loved the hot tub and the pool table.

- Morwenna, July 2020
Wayne December 2019

“The farm house is beautiful.”

We were met by Mags the cleaner she was aware of a couple of issues in the house but they were never replaced. There were quite a few light bulbs that needed replacing. One of the pool cues were broken. Some kitchen utensils needed replacing and needs a bigger frying pan. We booked the farm house where no pets were allowed on reading guests comments some had allowed the neighbours cat into the house and my brother is allergic to the. I do feel that a dryer needs to put in the house we had to put wet washing on the radiators. There were logs for the Woodburner but we had to go to the village shop to buy kindle and fire lighters. These were messages I had to ask about.

- Wayne, December 2019
Catherine November 2019

“This cottage was a wonderful getaway for the family.”

would def go back to stay again. pool table and hot tub were a great success no matter the age! there was a problem with the heating when we arrived but it was sorted as soon as possible that day. the only thing that would have improved our experience would have been better weather!!!! (but what can you expect in Britain in November!)

- Catherine, November 2019
Joanne November 2019

“We had such an amazing time.”

The cottage was lovely and so peaceful. To top it we even had a resident cat to make us all feel at home!!

- Joanne, November 2019
Matthew October 2019

- Matthew, October 2019
Paul August 2019

“Amazing place to stay.”

We made great use of the lovely hot tub. Comfortable and clean. Great hosts. Would recommend for families. Lovely gardens and peaceful setting.

- Paul, August 2019
Gary June 2019

“The group had a brilliant time at the cottage.”

It was well equipped, and the games room was a particular hit, although sometimes found it difficult to play a shot.. It just added to the fun.

- Gary, June 2019
Bob April 2019

“We are four men of a certain age who have been walking the fells for many years, mainly in Cumbria.”

We expect top of the range cottages with home comforts and often pay extra for this standard to make our yearly adventure outstanding. This property met all those expectations & the quiet, secluded location was superb. We are also accomplished cooks & the good sized kitchen met our requirements superbly. Our welcome on arrival was lovely, a nice rapport established, to the point where we almost invited the lovely lady finishing off the cleaning for dinner. Perhaps we will next time!

- Bob, April 2019
Kevin April 2019

“Had a great time, the property was exactly as described and facilities were perfect.”

- Kevin, April 2019
Deanna April 2019

“Perfect”

- Deanna, April 2019
Michael February 2019

“Jane was very accommodating and made sure any issues were resolved ASAP.”

We really valued being feeling comfortable to ring her whenever an issue occurred. The cottage was fantastic and really exceeded expectations. We had an amazing stay and will go back at some point in the near future.

- Michael, February 2019
Martyn February 2019

“We booked the cottage for 6 adults to celebrate a 40th birthday and the place was amazing.”

It was clean and spacious with everything you would possibly need for a great weekend. Using the hot tub in the freezing weather was a fantastic experience. Great location with so much to do around, if you get a chance check out Go-Below. And make sure you feed the friendly cat.

- Martyn, February 2019
Chris December 2018

“Wonderful stay over the Christmas period, beautiful setting - will definitely be returning”

- Chris, December 2018
Richard December 2018

“The cottage is in a beautiful location.”

It was ideal for a family get together pre Christmas as there was plenty to do and it was cosy and comfortable. The hot tub and the pool table were fun and there are many great walks. The cottage was decorated for Christmas which was lovely and there was also an adorable cat!

- Richard, December 2018
Hayley November 2018

“We had an amazing time celebrating a friend's 15th wedding anniversary.”

The location is stunning with lovely walks right on the doorstep. Hot tub was breathtaking on a clear night to look up at the stars. Nice and clean and comfortable. The only tiny thing missing was kitchen roll!!!

- Hayley, November 2018
Elizabeth November 2018

“Fabulous views,relaxing quiet location and really helpful owner.”

As a special birthday weekend left prosecco and welsh cakes for us. Only thing lacked was a frying pan!

- Elizabeth, November 2018

- Julian, August 2018
Su August 2018

“This cottage is beautiful, it's the perfect place to relax and unwind in.”

We were a party of 6 which included a 16,18 and 19. They loved it, walking in fields, the freedom. It was a very happy week and didn't want to leave. The owner is very friendly and welcoming. The views from hot tub are amazing. If you want peace and tranquillity then this is the cottage to choose . Would highly recommend it.

- Su, August 2018
Sam August 2018

“A really lovely cottage in beautiful surroundings.”

With a mixed group of adults, teens and younger children the area, accommodation and facilities were great in keeping everyone occupied. The owners were extremely welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Staff at Sykes Cottages were really helpful when we rang with any queries and resolved any questions quickly. We would recommend both Sykes Cottages and Maes Madog Cottage to anyone considering a similar holiday.

- Sam, August 2018
Carly August 2018

“Fabulous cottage in a stunning location.”

Brillismt facilities and Jane couldn’t have been more accommodating! We wil definitely be booking another holiday here!

- Carly, August 2018
Philipp June 2018

“The cottage is as awesome as it looks on the fotos - a very welcoming, comfortable house with character.”

Our kids loved the hot tub and the pool table, we enjoyed sitting on the lawn in a very undisturbed location (except for the noises of the sheep, but that‘s part of being in the middle of Snowdonia ;-) Very friendly and welcoming people too....

- Philipp, June 2018
Joanna June 2018

“After a beautiful journey through the VERY narrow lanes we had a wonderful surprise on the dining room table when we arrived.”

Stunning walks, friendly outside cat and interesting cow movement at 10.00pm some nights. Superb hot tub with country views and enjoyed listening to the dawn courus by so many birds. Even thought this house is close to the other holiday cottages you feel as is you are miles from anyone due to how the house is situated. Will definitely recommend and will certainly return here.

- Joanna, June 2018
Phillip May 2018

“Maes Madog was the perfect location for us, and the standard of accommodation was excellent, and as portrayed on the website.”

My wife and I were joined by our two adult children, daughter-in-law and two young grandchildren. So The location meant that basically anywhere in Snowdonia was within 30 minutes. We enjoyed the Velocity Zipwire, the Fforest coaster/adventure site (very close by), Conwy Sands, and Mount Snowdon, in addition to lovely walks into and around Betwys Coed. We all enjoyed seeing the sheep in nearby fields and even in the garden! The hot tub was enjoyed on many occasions. The kitchen is very well appointed, the lounge is great with the wood burner, and we all found the bedrooms and bath/showering facilities to be enjoyable. Jane, the owner, met us on our day of arrival and gave us a short and comprehensive introduction to the facilities. She was also nearby on the day we left and we confirmed that we would very much like to return. Phil Peggs (6/6/18)

- Phillip, May 2018
Kirsty May 2018

“We were 8 ladies celebrating a 50th birthday.”

Weekend 11th May to 14th May. We were all impressed with the property and the facilities. The hot tub was well used. The kitchen easily sat 8 adults. The grounds are fantastic and the sheep are entertaining. The holiday cat "Lucky" was an added bonus. We had booked various activities for the weekend and the property was ideally situated to get to all the places. We have all said that we would go back there again. Had a fantastic time. Little extras were amazing.- welsh cakes, bara brith, wine and milk were left for us. Can't recommend this place enough!!! Thank you for a fantastic weekend.

- Kirsty, May 2018
Charlotte April 2018

“Great house and facilities!”

Pictures don’t do the house justice. Great for up to 8 people, rooms are spacious and kitchen/living room too. Pool table and hot tub were great it was a perfect weekend away. A 45min walk to bets-y-coed which has pubs etc, but be warned the walk back is very steep and there are not many local taxis

- Charlotte, April 2018
Sharon April 2018

“Sykes and Mrs Jones were very helpful with any questions about the property and grocery deliveries prior to our stay.”

Mrs Jones (Jane) welcomed us and showed us everything we needed to know. The property was lovely and suited us down to the ground. The house was warm but we still enjoyed having the log burner going for when we got out the hot tub. Great location with plenty to do in the area.

- Sharon, April 2018
Nicholas April 2018

“Upon booking we were only able to book and pay for whole week even though we were not able to arrive until the Sunday.”

Upon arrival we found out that the cottage had been re-let which does not seem to be right as were under the impression that the cottage was ours Friday to Friday.

- Nicholas, April 2018
Joanna March 2018

“Cottage was very lovely, Jayne was very welcoming and left use Welsh cakes, cream eggs and x2 bottles of prosecco.”

And not forgetting the lillies. The view around the property were stunning with little lambs running around playing :0) there was a resident cat who visited daily, he or she was very friendly so don’t forget to feed it and give him some love if you do visit. There was 8 of us, sitting around the television at night felt a little small for 8 but if you have a few small friends like we did then it shouldn’t feel too bad. The only downside was the log burner, although Jane was very accommadating and brought use logs and got logs delivered the next day, they were very wet so the fire never really got going, the heating only came on for several hours a day which left us quite cold. The whole cottage was clean and has all facilities to cook, the dish washer was a bonus. The hot tub was a treat and we didn’t really move from there. Fresh towels were given to all 8 people which was nice. Over all the place is gorgeous would definitely go again, only be more prepared and bring my on logs which I can get going and perhaps for a longer period to enjoy some of the walks we didn’t get to go on due to the weather Thank you so much for a lovely stay

- Joanna, March 2018
Kathryn February 2018

“Maes Madog is like a little treasure trove!”

Location wise it is fantastic for exploring Snowdonia, albeit it is a very small, narrow, extremely steep hill you go up to get to the property (all part of the adventure). We had a Tesco delivery to supply us with all our food and drink for our visit. There are small Spar Supermarkets in the villages but you need to go to Porthmadog or Bangor to get to the bigger supermarkets. The rooms are lovely and spacious, yet cosy at the same time. Lots of period features including the original stove in the pool room, a wood burner, lovely wooden furniture in the bedrooms contrasted with modern kitchen and bathrooms. The hot tub was a super treat. I was adamant that visiting in February, we wouldn't me making use of it. Oh was I so wrong, I was the first one in there every night and the whole group of us used it each day. The kitchen has all the equipment you need to be able to stay in a cook evening meals for 8 and the dishwasher also meant breakfast dishes could be washed and ready for evening meals. Good size fridge freezer and the hob and oven were amazing - 4 gas rings, a griddle, a warmer, 2 ovens and a grill and a warming drawer for the plates! The only down side I would say is if you are above 5'3" be prepared to keep ducking your head to get through doorways. This is a 300 year old cottage, what do you expect!

- Kathryn, February 2018
Shabana January 2018

“We had an absolutely amazing weekend.”

The cottage and location exceeded our expectations, as well as the hospitality from the owners. The cottage was clean and beautiful. Pictures do not do the cottage justice! Will definitely be booking again.

Armando December 2017

“We had a great time at Maes madog, the house accommodated our hall family very well, we didn't have any issues what so ever, the landlady it was very helpful and everybody had a fantastic time.”

I'd definitely comeback and recommend for our friends.

- Armando, December 2017
Thomas December 2017

“We had a fantastic stay.”

With stone walls and exposed oak beams, each holiday cottage is full of character and offers friends, families and couples a fantastic country escape! Inside are cosy, open plan living spaces where you can cook meals together, discuss the day’s excursions over dinner, or relax with a glass of wine and a bit of late-night TV before bed. Comfy bedrooms offer the perfect place to rejuvenate with a good night’s sleep, and three properties have bath tubs where you can relax with a long soak after a busy day. Surrounding the cottages are delightful grounds with stunning views, pretty flower beds and outdoor dining areas full of ancient oak trees and abundant birdlife. You can relax in the sunshine, accompanied by the soothing sounds of birdsong and Afon Euarth which runs nearby. The village of Capel Garmon has a local pub, which can be reached in a 15-minute walk, and the popular neighbouring village of Betws-y-Coed has a good collection of shops and pubs of its own. It also has a brilliant mountain bike centre and, as the cottages are set in the Snowdonia National Park, the surrounding area is also full of excellent walking opportunities. An excellent holiday base for groups exploring North Wales, and seeking a relaxing country retreat!

CAPEL GARMON

Betws-y-Coed 2 miles; Llanrwst 5 miles.

Capel Garmon is a small peaceful village set above the beautiful Conwy Valley and surrounded by pastureland, with wonderful views of the Snowdonia Mountain Peaks, especially Moel Siabod. There is a traditional 16th Century country pub with a blazing log fire and home cooking, and also a renowned Neolithic burial chamber. Two miles away, Betws-y-Coed is North Wales' most popular inland resort and is surrounded by dense woodland and magnificent mountain country, a haven for walkers and cyclists. At Betws-y-Coed the River Conwy meets its three tributaries flowing from the west, and the beauty of the area is enhanced by cascading waterfalls, river pools and ancient bridges. Most famous of all are the magnificent Swallow Falls, situated where the Llugwy River hurls itself into a spectacular chasm. This picturesque village has quality shops, pubs and restaurants and is home to The Snowdonia National Park Visitor Centre. Further afield lie the many castles, gardens, beaches and historic houses of the region, just waiting to be enjoyed.
