You will feel on top of the world staying at this beautifully prepared cottage in the hills above Porthmadog. The views are breathtaking from this sensitively converted detached farm building. The nearest neighbours are a couple of fields away, so it is remote, but not isolated.

Stunning cottage stunning views

Beudy Cefn is an absolute gem. It’s modern, very well equipped, offers plenty of space and is miraculously close to everything that matters in and around Eryri while at the same time offering near total privacy, if you don’t count the somewhat bewildered looks of sheep and cows. The views are absolutely fantastic, and to sit in the sun on the veranda and watch clouds draw shapes on the landscape is just plain serene.

Towels and bedding were fresh and smelled wonderful. All necessities are taken into account and amenities are provided, like a couple dishwasher tabs, laundry pods, tea towels, a new sponge, etc.

There are two things you need to be ready for: A drive up a single-lane road that will give new drivers and nervous passengers a mild panic attack, and a very shaky and oftentimes unavailable internet connection. The latter can be corrected and we’ll leave some separate feedback how that could be done. But let’s be honest, you wouldn’t consider holidays in Wales if you’d be bothered by either of these.

We only had one hiccup during our stay – a power cut, the fault of Scottish Power. Our contact with STS on that day has been absolutely exemplary – we were immediately offered a night in an empty property which we didn’t end up needing. This was our second holiday let from STS and will recommend them to absolutely anyone.

We enjoyed every minute in the house and are already looking for future dates to be back.

The drive to the cottage with a large care was the Englishman’s answer to the ultimate laxative.
Great views once you get there.




Perfect

We stayed at cowslips cottage expecting a lovely view of the Glaslyn estuary, however we were blown away with what we saw. The drive up to the cottage is a tricky one up narrow roads, but as you climb out of the valley you get glimpses of the view that awaits you at the cottage. We were truly amazed by the location and also the modern comforts on offer at the cottage. The super modern kitchen had all the amenities and utensils, the lounge was beautiful with the exposed stone walls and the bedrooms were comfortable. Although remote, we didn’t feel too detached from modernity. We passed our evenings sat in the window looking at the ever-changing view in the valley below. On our final night there we sat outside to see the stars and they were magnificent.
