Reviews consistently mention the freshness and cleanliness of towels and bed linens, and the overall tidiness of the cottage, indicating high standards of cleanliness.
The property's remote spot with amazing views and quiet surroundings is greatly appreciated by guests, though accessibility via a long farm track might be a consideration for some.
Guests describe the accommodation as cosy and comfortable, with a very comfortable bed, contributing to a restful stay.
The hot tub is a favourite feature, although one review suggests the kitchen may not be ideal for those who enjoy cooking. The presence of other guests can be noticeable due to the property layout.

Excellent location for snowdonia area and has some beautiful local waterfalls nearby 20-30mins by car. It's off the beaten track so be prepared for a bumpy ride up to las craig(it's on a mountain after all)but worth it.stunning views from cottage across the valley... perfect for morning coffee. Has out door hot tub,nice perfect way to relax after a day out...excellent lovely friendly owners nearby,will show you around everything. But then do not interfere in anyway,unless you ask them to.

Greeted shortly after arrival by Greg, who was more than happy to show us around the property properly and explain the details of hot tub and how to work it without causing havoc or damage. Prior to the stay we requested some additional decorations in the bedrooms, which exceeded our expectations by far! The cottage is located in a lovely location, very tucked away so no road noises etc which of course was a bonus. The hot tub was perfect, lovely after a day out exploring. Overall it is a very home away from home experience, and no complaints were needed about our stay. The lovely owners Greg and Marie were always on hand if we had any issues or queries, and even gave a helping hand upon leaving when issues arose. Will definitely be back in February for a little break away again!

We are a family of four with a small dog. It was a lovely location with great views. Nice and quiet, we all loved it. It was perfect for us. We did a lot of walking.
