Mr Robinson
This cottage is a charming place, steeped in warm family history and set in the most idyllic of landscapes. Every single window offers breathtaking views, especially the ones from the back of the cottage that look up at Cwm Glas Bach and Clogwyn Station! There are so many hiking options directly from the door of the cottage, including a (challenging!) route directly to the summit of Snowdon. One of the best things about the cottage is that it has direct access to the incredible mountain streams and waterfalls which are great for cold water plunges or simply just meditating next too. Also, at night there are wonderful views of the Milky Way. Honestly, this is a magical, warm and cozy hideaway which will really appeal to lovers of the wild Welsh mountains!

Very cosy cottage with an out-of-this-world flair. Surrounded by sheep and directly on the slopes of the Snowdon, perfect for hiking. The brook running close by behind the house is magical! We had a great stay with our family of four in this wonderful place, with many locations (Anglesey, Caernarfon castle, beaches etc.) easy to reach by car. Access to the house by car is somewhat rugged and narrow in places.
