Perfect location for Snowdon and Slate Trail

Lovely clean property with everything needed and more. Great to be able to step out and have several different walks on your doorstep. Great WiFi when the weather was not so good. The local pub serves good food for when you don’t fancy cooking. Would happily stay again.

Lovely cottage

Really lovely cottage in a great location. Pub just down the road is fantastic, lovely food and warm welcome. Walk to Beddgelert great, lots of walks on the doorstep. Only thing to mention is that parking is not on site- it’s on the road outside. We only struggled for a space once as it’s a quiet enough road. Would definitely return.

Memorable days in the heart of Snowdonia

We enjoyed very nice days in a confortable cottage located in an amazing place. Cefnan Cottage is in a peaceful town but close to many attractions. We liked so much the incredible backyard to have breakfast. In short, we found what we were looking for in our family holidays.

Second Visit

A three night stay this time and just as lovely as last year. Joined this time by our daughter and partner who enjoyed the cottage as much we do. Clean and cosy and continued improvement by the owners- beautiful new doors. Great walking and birdlife and fantastic meal at the local pub.

Perfect getaway

The property was spotless and very warm. Although the garden eas listed as being a little treacherous it was very interesting and glorious views when you climbed to the top. Would definitely recommend and we will be back as great base for the surrounding villages.

In the heart of Snowdonia

A really beautiful and cozy cottage is offering a home and base for all the activities Snowdonia is renowned for. A pub and a tea house are just a couple of meters away are and the Rhyd-Ddu hiking trail up to Mount Snowdon is literally starting directly beneath the cottage door. I wish we would have stayed longer…

Rhyd-Ddu Snowdonia

Cottage is user friendly attractive and easily managed. Well equipped for all you might need. Very well placed for walks up Snowdon and to Beddgelert, way marked routes in the forest by rivers and lakes.Easy access to coast and other notable towns by bus if required which run regularly through the village. Access to Welsh steam railway and excellent pub/restaurant in village. lots of useful information available in the cottage. all together very happy with our stay.

Lovely cottage and location

Lovely, clean cottage which is very handy for an excellent pub and lots of walks on the hills from your door step. We were unfortunate with the weather at the beginning of the week and appreciated having the log burner which made the cottage very cosy. The scenery is breathtaking all round and the walking we did more than made up for rainy fays.

Quiet Comfortable Cottage perfect for exploring Eryri National Park

We loved this cottage as it was the perfect base for us to explore a bit of Snowdonia National Park. We are active hikers and took two trails (one to the top of Mount Snowdon) within 5 minutes from our door. The cottage was clean, comfortable, tastefully decorated and had a well appointed kitchen (which was perfect since both the tea room and the local pub were closed for food service due to staffing issues). Highly recommended for person wanting a quiet community with beautiful views.

Quiet and spotless

Check in was easy and property was spotlessly clean. Do head warnings about access to small garden as into easy at all. Whereas we were given a few web addresses, a more personal touch with suggestions for walks and local hints and tips would not have gone a miss.

Comfy Cosy in Snowdon

We had a lovely time in this very well maintained cottage at the foot of Snowdon. The place was immaculately clean and very well equipped. Thanks to Sally for making everything so straightforward and easy, from booking to leaving on our last morning! The welcome gifts were very much appreciated as were the little tips and the introductions to Emma and Menno in the Tea Room opposite the cottage. Regards. Ken

Cefnan

It was a great place to stay and very clean. The beds were very comfortable. Although we were out most of the time it was a nice place to relax when we came home in the evening. I'd have to say the only drawback (and granted, there were warning signs about it) were the very steep steps leading up to the top of the garden - I felt they were in need of a more substantial hand rail. All in all though a very lovely little cottage in a lovely village and beautiful surroundings - and an excellent stay - Highly recommended.

Wet weather but loads of interesting places to visit

.Very well equipped, well presented and extremely clean. All kitchen appliance worked extremely well. Kitchen was quite cold. Few problems, the only heating in the bathroom was a heated towel rail but it wasn’t working. The back door to the garden leaked and formed a small flood in the kitchen, the mat was sodden. So we had to mop the floor several times. The bath was quite big with an integrated shower, there was no hand rail and no bath mat. This was a safety hazard. These points were raised with the representive but no action was taken. The electric shower was a little weak but adequate.

Nice stone terrace house ideally located for various top hikes

Very nice location: The best Snowdon hike (via South ridge Allt Meandryn) and two further top hikes (Mynyd Mawr and Nantlle ridge) directly from the door step in Rhyd Ddu. At night almost no traffic on the small main road of the 70 inhabitant village in front of the building. Nicely and recently furbished and very modern top notch equipment (kitchen). Small (mind the head at both kitchen doors), but space is intelligently used. Notice that in the living room there luckily is a (quite small) table with four seats for dining (I mention this as it is not visible on the photos). No mobile connection in that village, but Wifi works well. Spacious kitchen works very well for family cooking. Dishwasher sometimes caused the fuse to go out (and didn't sufficiently dry the cutlery and crockery, at least we didn't understand how to manage that). Towel dryer in bathroom didn't warm up, maybe again just to difficult for us to understand how it works. This kind of building seems to get damp easily at least on rainy days, hence windows are equipped with permanent vents and an electric dehumidifier was available, but the best solution is just opening doors and windows.

Gut ausgestattetes Reihenaus

Sauberes schönes Haus, leider war es nicht so einfach zu finden, da das Foto der Haustür, das uns mit den Informationen zum Einchecken gesendet wurde, nicht mit der Realität übereinstimmte. Eine solche Haustüre wie die auf diesem Foto abgebildete, gibt es in der ganzen Häuserzeile nicht. Hilfreich wäre auch die Information, dass „Cefnan“ der Name das Hauses ist und nicht z. B. der eines Ortsteils. Das Parken ist nur an der Straße möglich und wenn man Pech hat, muss man am anderen Ende des Dorfes parken. Der Garten ist leider nicht zu nutzen, wenn es vorher geregnet hat, da man über eine Steintreppe einen Hang hinaufsteigen muss und diese Treppe dann sehr rutschig ist. Während unseres Aufenthaltes war es allerdings auch ohnehin zu kalt, um draußen zu sitzen. Insgesamt war es ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt in zentraler Lage in Snowdonia, von wo aus man viele interessante Ziele gut erreichen konnte.

Perfect!

A couple of busy mums stayed in this wonderful cottage! We arrived in the dark at 8pm but found the cottage immediately and easily gain access with the key box. It was everything we hoped for. Clean and everything was easy to access and use. We explored the beautiful area. Everything is on your doorstep here but you are also in the middle of nowhere. Our stay here was relaxing and we had wonderful chilled evenings in the lounge. Excellent location for climbing Snowdown from the Rhy Ddu path. Sally was great at communication. We really hope to visit again soon.

A lovely gem of a place!

Had an incredibly relaxing week at Cenfan and the lovely village of Rhyd Ddu. Beautiful scenery, lots of walks and things to help us all unwind. Cenfan is a lovely cottage, well looked after and resourced. All mod cons and a welcome bottle of wine!! Thank you for a lovely stay. We hope to return.
