The Velocity zip line experience is a few minutes drive away and worth a visit to watch, even if you donât participate - nice food being served at the cafe there too. Bethesda is well served by an Londis and a well stocked Tesco Express and you can get a Tesco online grocery delivery to this postcode too. The beds were comfortable with excellent bedding and quality bedroom furniture. Nice to have a full length fridge and freezer and an under counter fridge, as is appropriate for this size of accommodation for those wishing to mostly eat in and self cater. A pint of milk would have been nice on arrival and a teapot please and a few more serving dishes, otherwise a good supply of plates etc. Some newer cushions in the lounge would also lift this area but sofas comfy. We brought a shower mat with us for my mum to use in the shower as a precaution and we were glad we did as there were none provided and it gave us some peace of mind in avoiding slips. The hot tub was great and well maintained throughout our stay. Also very useful to have the walled garden and additional lawned areas to exercise our dog and the zip wire was also great fun. All in all a lovely place to stay.

Loved the hot tub, and the onsite park was an added bonus that my little girl absolutely loved! Perfect location to get to popular places like Portmeirion, Zip world. Thank you for an amazing holiday
