"This cottage is immaculately presented from the outside and in. It’s a great location and is only a very short walk to the centre of Betws-y-Coed. On road parking is available along the road outside the cottage and there are plenty of spaces further along the road if you can’t get directly outside. The cottage is modern and has everything you could need for a break in this beautiful part of Wales.

Top Gwydyr Forest Hotel Reviews

Waterloo Hotel Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great 6-night stay at the Waterloo. The room was nice and clean, with a large window overlooking the greenery that could be opened wide for fresh air. The beds were comfortable, and we really liked the breakfast, especially the items made to order. The staff were helpful and friendly. It was a very good location for exploring Snowdonia, and it was nice to come back to a quiet and comfortable hotel after a day out. We enjoyed our stay and would come back again."

Coed-Y-Fron Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommended. Well-equipped room. Spotlessly clean. Only (very) minor drawback was the narrow staircase to the second floor. Staff members were super helpful - I only regret not sampling the Welsh traditional breakfast!! Hotel is in a great location with a short walk to in-town facilities (shops, restaurants & bars). And plenty of parking on the quiet access road in front of the hotel."

Summer Hill Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you so much for a lovely stay, the breakfast was amazing and lots of choice, host offered to amend the menu if required, hosts were very attentive and welcoming. Self check in was easy and great. parking was very secure also."

"Room was clean with bath towels, hand wash, shampoo provided. Small shower cubicle. Plentiful storage in room. Hand towel and more clothes hangers would be useful. Housekeeping only available by request from nearby Indian restaurant. Guests have access to dining room with fridge and also outside terrace. Central position in Betws y coed. Would stay there again without hesitation."

Bryn Afon - a snowdonia house that sleeps 12 guests in 6 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a beautiful large house, perfect for a larger group, plenty of bedrooms all with en-suite which was great.Very well equipped kitchen so easy to cook for the family and lovely dining table. So many extras that make such a difference like the very warm boot room, brilliant for drying out wet coats and walking boots, washer and dryer, and fabulous dog room, plus a games room with a darts board, really something for everyone, and lastly the house couldn’t be in a more perfect position for the town and amenities and beautiful walks, overall couldn’t fault it and would love to return.
