About this property

An attractive, 19th century, stone-built, detached cottage, standing in the owner's grounds in a peaceful countryside location on the outskirts of the hamlet of Pentir, between the bustling university city of Bangor and the famous market town of Llanberis. Offering ideal accommodation for couples, the property is well equipped and comfortable, with a wonderful sun room overlooking the enclosed garden, perfect for relaxing in all weathers, enjoying the views of Anglesey and Penrhyn Castle and even some spectacular sunsets. This modern, single-storey retreat is close to lovely woodland, a scenic cycle trail, the beautiful Ogwen Valley and has all of Snowdonia on its doorstep. Enjoy a tranquil boat trip or take a ride on the lakeside railway at Llanberis, just 4 miles away at the base of Mount Snowdon. This is a superb, relaxing base, ideally placed for discovering all of Snowdonia, the Isle of Anglesy, Caernarfon and Conwy castles and miles of wonderful coastline.

Situated on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park, the scattered hamlet of Pentir is set between the famous town of Llanberis and the University City of Bangor. With excellent places to eat and drink as well as wonderful shopping facilities, Llanberis is set beneath the spectacular Snowdon Massif, making it a popular destination for walkers and climbers. This lovely little town is the starting point forthe ascent to the summit, which can either be made via a number of interesting and beautiful trails or via the Snowdonia Mountain Railway. Just seven miles away is the lovely town of Caernarfon which boasts a magnificent Castle and town walls, as well as close proximity to the National Trust properties at Penrhyn and Plas Newydd. The rest of Wales is also within easy reach, making this an excellent holiday spot.

    Very comfortable bed and sofa. The weather was not fantastic for August but if you worry about the weather you wouldn't go anywhere. Good central base to reach a lot of the surrounding areas. Nice walking area. Step's down to doggy garden steep and slippy in the rain. Overall lovely place to stay.

  • Keith

    The road up to the cottage (approx. 1 mile) was a single track road but not too bad. Mr Mrs Ellis were on hand with any query's we had. A lovely place to stay for touring north Wales.

    The cottage was clean and tidy. Plenty of walks on the door step.
