HOLIDAY HOUSE TANYGRISIAU SNOWDONIA North Wales

It was perfect for us

Parking directly opposite the house, house was quite hot upstairs even though we only had the downstairs hall heater on, kitchen well equipped, tea coffee and biscuits there for us , plenty of towels if required , throws if you wanted to be out in the front garden later in the year.

Only thing that disappointed us were hairs on the double bed sheets.

Beautiful location at the bottom of a mountain. Very quiet town.

Scales in the kitchen.

The host had excellent organisation and communication skills. Communication was made as soon as the booking was made and once again closer to the day, which made my planning easier. They were incredibly prompt to respond to the changes in the arrival time and they were easy to get in contact with if we had needed, which was further reassuring. Host also ensured there were enough firewood for our stay. The home is in a great location- around 30 mins car journey to llanberis path. The surrounding mountains are beautiful to look at. The rooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The decor, extra cushions, extra throw towels, the snacks on the microwave, fully stocked kitchen (both equipment and cupboard food items) made it extremely homely. It is apparent that the host genuinely cares about our stay. The bedroom was nice and cosy with black out curtains.

We visited in late autumn so the cold weather definitely influenced our experience. I imagine this wouldn’t be an issue during spring or summer. It would have been nice if the heating and hot water had been switched on before our arrival, especially after a long, cold journey. The house was extremely cold when we arrived and it took a few hours for the downstairs rooms, hallway and hot water to warm up. The property uses a hot water tank system, and due to the freezing temperatures, the hot water ran out after about five minutes. The electric shower also intermittently switched to cold water for around 10 seconds every 40 to 50 seconds, which wasn’t ideal. We had to wait about 45 minutes to an hour for the tank to re-heat. This made it a bit difficult to manage for a group and slightly delayed our plans . The kitchen floor was also quite cold even with the heater on. Some additional insulation such as kitchen mats or a door separating the kitchen and living room would really help. Since the bathroom is located at the end of the kitchen, the kitchen wasn’t the most pleasant to pass through. That said, the place itself was genuinely homely and I would still definitely recommend staying here!

Lovely location. Very well equipped, comfortable cottage.

Nothing

Beautiful house and well kept. Wonderful people in the village and everywhere we went. Unbelievable service, left some clothes and they were sent back to us with no charge. Will recommend to everyone who wants to experience Wales ❤️

Coming home 😔

Lovely location - especially as we don't drive, it's difficult to find somewhere in Snowdonia that works well for us
