    “Only issue we had was that when we arrived at 4pm the house had not been cleaned.”

    Spoke with Sykes and the owner and they arranged someone to be at the property within a hour to have it cleaned. Owner apologetic and advised she would sort something out for the inconvienence but we never did get anything.

    We were hugely sorry for your arrival experience, we would never wish for that to have happened. The cleaning team were at fault and we have since changed our cleaners. When I spoke with you on the phone about compensation you said you were using the house for work and not to worry as these things happen. I very sorry that you have since decided you want compensation. Please speak to Sykes as they are the booking agent. Kindest of regards. Property Owner

Enjoying views of the rolling Welsh mountains, this inner terrace stone cottage is an idyllic hideaway for six nature lovers or a family.

Entering the property, kick off your walking boots and house them in the storage near the door, ready to ramble your surroundings.

Discover the living/dining room, here you can curl on the sofa with a cup of tea as the woodburning stove crackles before you; afterwards gather around the rustic table to enjoy a hearty meal together.

Moving through the home, locate the contemporary kitchen, with an electric oven and hob, a fridge and a washer/dryer to keep your holiday clothes smelling fresh.

From here, you will find the ground-floor bathroom, so why not run a hot bath and relax your muscles after a day filled with adventure?

Venture upstairs to choose between three beautifully presented bedrooms, including a king-size, a double and a bunk room with TV, ideal for the younger ones.

Awaken with a steaming cup of coffee in the rear courtyard to breathe in the countryside before letting the day commence.

7 Tai Oakeley is a superb base for daredevils; just across the road is Zip World for thrilling activities, rugged mountain biking trails and the Former Cwmorthin Slate Mine for a tour.

Jump in the car to visit the slate town of Blaenau Ffestiniog to treat yourselves to a home-cooked meal in a traditional pub and stock up on the essentials from the convenience store.
