Rolando Jr August 2024

“Penrhyddion Ucha farm cottage was superb!”

The location was very quiet, with a stunning view yet, very close to Bewts-y-Coed for dinings, groceries, shopping and sight-seeing. The owner of the cottage was very friendly and welcoming. She prepared fresh milk and freshly baked scones on our arrival and checked on us twice to make sure we’re settling well. WI-FI was great! The heating was great! Everything you need in the kitchen and utility room were provided and available. Very relaxing indeed!

- Rolando Jr, August 2024
Ashley July 2024

- Ashley, July 2024
Christine July 2024

“We spent a wonderful week in this peaceful, relaxing and beautiful setting.”

Belinda May 2024

“The house was very clean and very comfortable.”

There was everything needed for a relaxing break. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped for a self catering break. There is a fantastic country view from every window. The location is quiet and with easy parking but just a short drive from Betws y Coed. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. We didn't have any problems during our stay but I have no doubt they would have been resolved quickly if we had. We loved our time at the house and hope to return before too long.

- Belinda, May 2024
Deepthi May 2024

“It was a beautiful cottage with all amenities and situated at an ideal central location.”

We had a lovely time and thanks for the delicious scones:) Would surely come back to this page

- Deepthi, May 2024
Michelle May 2024

“There was a smell coming of the central heating boiler in the kitchen every time in use.”

There was lots of cobwebs (old ones they were black) they were in the kitchen cupboards underneath the tv unit were the dvd player is just everywhere! And on arrival there was a musky damp smell which we opened all doors & windows for a while. And the kettle needs to be replaced as it’s black even discaling won’t remove the buildup we had to boil hot water in the pan for cups of tea & coffee. It’s a lovely cottage just needs up dating and a good clean!

- Michelle, May 2024

I'm sorry you had a few issues at the cottage but if I had been contacted during the week I would have tried my best to sort things for you! The boiler will emit a slight oily smell occasionally,this depends on the wind direction and all safety measures are in place! If my caretaker had missed a few cobwebs a phone call to ask for extra cleaning would have had it all sorted! I don't really know what the problem was with the kettle,you said you used pans for boiling water for drinks,but the lady who stayed with said the kettle was used for hot drinks! The interior of the kettle is discoloured because the water is not mains water treated with chemicals,but spring water treated by filtration and ultra violet and is tested annually! A new kettle would be discoloured in a few weeks! Property Owner
Kathleen January 2024

“Holiday cottage is just as described.”

Everything you need is there. Lovely welcome to the cottage and a surprise of milk and bara brith left for us to enjoy. Log burner was perfect for the cold nights and teenage girls loved the games room and meeting all the friendly farm animals. Views are amazing. Had a very relaxing stay. Couldn't ask for anything more!

- Kathleen, January 2024
Rob December 2023

“We had a fantastic 3 night stay here - a peaceful and beautiful spot with great views, all just a short drive from Betws-y-coed.”

The owner was very friendly and even left us milk and mince pies in the kitchen - a great touch. The perfect place to base ourselves for a few days of hiking, to come back and relax here infront of the fire. Just perfect.

- Rob, December 2023

“We had a lovely stay.”

House is very comfy and well equipped. Great location for exploring Betws y coed and very close to zip World which we all loved! Would highly recommend.

- Clare, February 2023
Grace January 2023

“Stunning location and everything needed even being snowed in.”

Attention to detail needed as lots of cobwebs everywhere. I really did not like the "house rules" sign when first entered and old boiler which let out a strong smell which left us both with headaches. However we still had a enjoyable stay as the views at the property were amazing.

- Grace, January 2023

I am sorry you had a few issues at the cottage,I wish your concerns had been mentioned when I visited to check if everything was OK rather than be told"beautiful property"!I think a smelly boiler should have been notified as a matter of urgency so it could have been investigated for your safety,as a matter of interest the body of the boiler is old but all parts have been replaced and are fairly new!

- Joanne, September 2022
William September 2022

“Lovely homely, comfortable cottage in a rural peaceful location on this working farm which we loved.”

“Lovely, cosy and clean property with everything you need for your stay and with fantastic views.”

- Phil, June 2022
Jolene April 2022

“Had the most amazing time in Wales.”

Our cottage was so lovely and cozy with everything we needed. The views are outstanding from the cottage so beautiful. The host was so lovely and welcoming and had made us homemade cake which was very welcome after a long journey. We hope to go back again some day. Can highly recommended.

- Jolene, April 2022
Clare April 2022

“We loved our relaxing stay in North Wales.”

The cottage has beautiful views all around, and is lovely and peaceful - the perfect relaxing place but equally well positioned to enjoy all that Snowdonia has to offer. We were lucky enough to be there during lambing season, which my children really loved. We loved coming back to the cottage every day after days out exploring the area. The cottage really is a home away from home - everything you need is there, plus a games room, washing facilities, enclosed garden and log burner. There are nice walks straight out the door across the countryside. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing holiday!

- Clare, April 2022

- Karen, August 2021
Karine August 2021

“The cottage was well equipped and is brilliantly located to visit North Wales.”

If you chose to stay there, don't miss the walk starting from the back of the church in the village, up to Lyn Elsie, it is truly magnificent.

- Karine, August 2021
Mel July 2021

“Fantastic cottage in peaceful and rural location with stunning views.”

Lovely host, scones, milk and fresh flowers all in the cottage on arrival. We did some lovely walking from the cottage...to the Capel Garmin Burial Chamber and also into Betws y Coed (good to have an OS map) Good access to the A5 if you want to drive out further afield. Cottage has everything you need, comfy beds, great shower, comfy sofas and a really well equipped kitchen. The appliances were all good and easy to use ( fridge in kitchen, tall fridge, tall freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer in outhouses) My Tesco order for a family of 4 arrived on the first evening which i'd recommend as smaller stores only nearby (Londis, Spar Co-Op type shops) Would highly recommend this cottage...we'll definitely be back

- Mel, July 2021
Margaret June 2021

“Lovely, peaceful location with beautiful views.”

Comfortable, clean, well equipped cottage. Helpful, welcoming owner - delicious scones on arrival! Just a few miles from Betws y Coed and a very easy drive to Snowdon and the Ogwen Valley.

- Margaret, June 2021

“We enjoyed the cottage so much, it was like home from home to us, the views and walks from there were so good, we just enjoyed everything about it, would definitely recommend.”

Karen May 2021

“This was a return visit to this cottage, the very fact that we have returned is testimony in itself.”

We have stayed in other cottages but this is the only one to which we have returned. The cottage is set on a working hill farm so you will be close to sheep and goats you will see lots of birds and other wildlife, we arrived at the end of lambing season so it was lovely to see them playing in the fields on our doorstep. The cottage is surrounded by countryside, hills and amazing views, it is peaceful but not far from amenities should you wish to seek out something a little more social, subject to Covid-19 restrictions. The walking and climbing in the area is fantastic, we have walked up Snowdon in the past but we stuck to walking the hills, waterfalls and trails this time including a visit just over the hill to Capel Garmon Burial Chamber https://cadw.gov.wales/visit/places-to-visit/capel-garmon-burial-chamber and down the hill to Conwy Falls https://www.visitconwy.org.uk/things-to-do/conwy-falls-p277451, check out the visit wales website for other places to visit in the area, opening times, restrictions and to book visits on-line. We had an amazing time, very relaxing which was just what we needed. The cottage is very well equipped, I can't think of anything that you may need that isn't there, all equipment for cooking and a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer, should you need them. There was tea and coffee, milk and lovely scones left out for our arrival. It was lovely to come back from our walks and set the multi-fuel fire and enjoy a glass of wine, it was so warm and cosy. There is a starter pack for the fire included and additional supplies to purchase left in the laundry room. Bedrooms and bathroom are lovely, clean, well equipped and well set out. Now to the owners, they are amazing and so lovely, Mrs Jones kept us informed all along the way, contacting us to arrange the key collection, she also called us en-route to inform us that we could arrive a little earlier. We had a visit the day after our arrival to check everything was okay but other than this we were left to enjoy our holiday, not at all intrusive but there if you need to call her to ask any questions or arrange anything. Such a lovely lady. We will certainly be booking another visit to this cottage and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

Sheleagh September 2020

“The detached cottage was lovely, clean, cosy and warm.”

It exceeded our expectations. The rural location was much more than we had imagined. In fact we just sat outside the cottage for a day, just taking in the wonderful, breathtaking views! The owner of the property was lovely. Nothing was too much trouble for her.

- Sheleagh, September 2020
Rebecca August 2020

“Really lovely peaceful rural location up a single track.”

We enjoyed the seclusion and the beautiful views from the windows and walks leading from the house. The house itself is well equipped with extra fridge and freezer space in an outbuilding and washing machine. Beds comfortable, slept like a log. Feels very homely. Owner very friendly and approachable.

- Rebecca, August 2020

Tracy September 2019

“We could not have asked for anything more.”

The cottage is beautiful and cosy. When we arrived it was perfect, the owners had even left cake, milk and everything we needed for a nice cuppa on arrival. The views are spectacular and it is so peaceful. There is a washing machine and tumble dryer, free to use. There really is nothing they didn't think of. I have already, but will continue to sing the praises of this cottage. We cant wait to go back again. Thank you so very much!

- Tracy, September 2019
Frank September 2019

“Lovely cottage, very peaceful, beautiful views; location excellent - lots to see and do!”

We had a lovely relaxing week. perfect holiday, very friendly neighbours and owners. Well equipped cottage and good weather. Couldn't have asked for more. The best cottage we've been to in North Wales. 10 stars ********** The Favager family

- Frank, September 2019
Laura August 2019

“The location of the cottage itself was lovely, however there were a few issues with the cottage, mainly things I wish i'd known before booking.”

The main view window in the living room had a failed unit in it, where it was full of condensation and could not be looked out of properly meaning you couldn't enjoy the view from inside the house. The single beds in the twin room were very uncomfortable with springs sticking in my daughters back, in the end we swapped the mattress from the single bed in our room which was a little better. However my son still slept in the other bed, he's younger (ans lighter) so couldn't feel it as much. The games room was unusable with the games being broken, there were no darts for the darts board, the football table had broken arms on it which meant you couldn't use, my children were upset by this as i'd been talking about the games room for some time prior to the holiday. I think this was mis-advertised really as it was more of a hazard than a room for children to play in. The last two days of the holiday we had no hot water, we did contact the owner and she came right over however the problem couldn't be resolved meaning cold showers for the last two days which wasn't ideal. The owner was also still in the house when we were going out for the day so we had to leave the house unlocked which I didn't feel comfortable with. (everything was fine, it was just my personal opinion). This the fridge was very small, id been a bit over organised and ordered the food shop to come on the day of arrival however the fridge was so small we couldn't keep some of the food in it, this is a little picky on my part but something id wish id known prior so thought it might be worth mentioning for anyone else wanting to do the same. There was also no light in the extractor fan above the cooker, and the reclining chairs on the sofa didn't work. The good points were that it was lovely and quiet, we saw lots of wildlife and went for some nice walks around the local area.

- Laura, August 2019

Thank you for your comments. We are glad you enjoyed the area and the location of the cottage. It is a lovely part of the country and many people comment on the walks and the wildlife The feedback is not typical of the comments that the owner usually receives. The owner is on hand to resolve any issues that you may have during your stay and encourages Customers to report these to them I am sorry to hear that you had problems with the hot water - the owner did come around to the property straight away and sorted this by resetting the timers. Owners will only enter the property if they need to and dont want to interrupt your stay so will often stay in the cottage while you are out and about to get things fixed. The games room is used by all Customers and the owner would have been happy to sort the football table for you as it wasn't broken & also replace the extractor fan bulb for you. The windows are being replaced at the end of the season. The mattresses are in good working order. Feedback about items like this are often subjective as we all have different levels of comfort The owner has read all of the comments you made and has taken those onboard We hope to welcome you back in the future Property Owner
Kieron July 2019

“We stayed here and drove down the valley to Snowdon and the Ogwen valley each day for some mountain walking, and it made a perfect base to come back to each night.”

The kitchen was well equipped and the living room and bedrooms were all very comfortable - the living room also has a wood stove, with extra bags of logs available to buy. The bathroom was also good, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The host was very friendly and made us feel very welcome, making sure we had everything we needed for the week. There was also loads of parking space in front of the property.

- Kieron, July 2019
Neil April 2019

“Idyllic location if you want to be away from it all, detached property surrounded by lambing fields, no disingenuous photographs of property unlike some others that make them look detached only to be semi or end of terrace.”

Part of working farm with owners living remotely away from the let. Second time we have stayed & would not hesitate to stay again as local to Snowden, Betws Y Coed Conwy etc.

- Neil, April 2019
Phil April 2019

“Excellent location, beautiful and peaceful.”

Bettina April 2019

“Lovely rural setting, wonderful views, comfortable house.”

The children enjoyed the games room and seeing the lambs in the field. Our host was extremely friendly and helpful and even popped by with Easter Eggs for the children at the end of our stay, which they loved! Close to Betys-y-Coed with Go Below Adventures at the end of the road and Zip World Forest not far away.

- Bettina, April 2019
Debra March 2019

Ruth October 2018

“Really lovely cottage, one of the better ones I’ve stayed it.”

Obviously a bit old in decor but everything we needed was at our finger tips and I can’t think of anything more that could have been provided. Also the views was remarkable and yet so close to key routes around Snowdonia.

- Ruth, October 2018
Ewen August 2018

“The location is wonderful.”

Relaxing and quiet with amazing views of the hills and distant mountains. Plenty of birds to watch and the sheep provided a lovely ambience. Well signed walked around the area. The cottage is really well stocked with crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. The rooms were comfortable and well presented. The host was really helpful and ensured we had all we needed. Would definitely consider another holiday here.

“Had the opportunity to stay here in the most wonderful week of the year.”

Loved the solitude, all we could hear were the sheep and the birds, pure bliss. Spacious accommodation with all the facilities you could ever need. The cottage lies in a stunning valley off a quiet road and is great if you want to really get away from the rat race. Perfect as a touring base to easily cover North and central Wales. Also had the pleasure in meeting and chatting to the owners who were friendly and helpful. In short we really enjoyed our stay.

Ideal for walkers with dogs. The shortest route to Betws-y-Coed requires two road gates to be opened and closed, but this keeps the lane quiet.

Jay March 2012

“The location of the accommodation on the farm, especially during lambing season was a worthwhile experience.”

Furthermore it was not far from Betws-y-coed, a beautiful riverside town with good restaurants and nice walks. Had the opportunity to meet the owners who were very friendly and attended to our small request very promptly. We were shown around their working farm nearby where we had a rewarding experience of witnessing a lamb being born in our presence. I will definitely visit this place again and will surely recommend to others as well.

- Jay, March 2012

“Everything about the holiday was excellent, the accommodation the area and the service over all.”

There are some fantastic walks and on days when we wanted to relax it was lovely to sit in front of the log fire. The owner is lovely and very friendly, the welcome tray and fresh flowers were a very nice touch and very welcoming after our journey. This is the third cottage we have stayed in with Sykes and the fourth time we have been in the last 3 years, they have all been excellent but this one was exceptional. I would definately recommend it to our friends and will certainly be going back.

The village has shops, pubs, places to eat, miniature railway, a riverside golf course and the Tree Top Adventure High Ropes Course, and is home to The Snowdonia National Park Visitor Centre, as well as being the start of the beautiful Conwy Valley which leads to the coast and the lovely towns of Llandudno and Conwy.
