Exceptional cottage on beautiful grounds. Very well looked after and maintained. Gamekeepers Cottage has a very large garden leading to a large pond and has outstanding views in front. Large amount of crockery and utensils - everything that you need! As a group we felt that the lounge furniture was rather uncomfortable as the seat cushions would move forward and you would have to repeatedly fix them (fixed seating would be better). The only downside to this cottage location compared to others that we have used in the past, is that there are no direct walking routes from the actual c...more
We’ve stayed at Rivercatcher for our annual get away about 5 or 6 times and always end up coming back. Fantastic cottages with everything you could want.
This was just a sublime visit. It far exceeded all our expectations and was simply perfect for us and the dogs. Absolutely everything that one would need was provided for. Thank you so much for a super stay.
Just spent a last minute break in Gezellig lodge. The standards are extremely high here, the lodge is absolutely perfect with your every need covered. Snug, comfortable and well equipped. They are beautiful lodges. The landscaping and garden furniture are immaculate, we even used the hot tub. The lodges are perfectly positioned to take in the outstanding views of the mountains, from your bed, sofa or decking. You have complete privacy and the stay was a real treat. My husband was thrilled to catch brown trout, salmon par and a number of greyling. We enjoyed some nice trips out to Pontysycllte ...more
We stayed for a mid week stay this September - we got really lucky with the weather as well which certainly helped to make the week a lovely stay. We have stayed previously in a larger property, but chose to stay at Ghilles as it was just the 3 of us (2 adults, 1 dog) Firstly, to acknowledge the lovely welcome pack we received went down a treat. The house itself was clean, well maintained and fully stocked, from extra cloths, bin liners etc and there is a definite luxury about the properties - bathrobes, granite worktops, comfortable settee, nice glasses, the lovely hot tub, under floor heat...more
This is the second time we have visited Rivercatcher and find the location very relaxing. The Flyfishers accommodation is exactly what we require.
The property is lovely with quality furniture and furnishings, and is in a stunning location. Although near to amenities, we could hear no traffic noise from the nearest road, it was just quiet and peaceful. We loved it there! We had a couple of minor problems whilst there, but they were sorted out very promptly by Aled, (one of the maintenance team on site). He is very helpful and knowledgeable, and willing to share information about the local area. Rivercatcher is well placed for visiting a number of places of interest, for example, Lake Bala is very close, also the Aquaduct at Llan...more
Location is idyllic. Staff, even grounds keepers, going out of their way to be helpful and friendly . After fifty years of regularly visiting Wales, we have found our favourite place to stay. One negative -- we have asked for tariff and availability for next spring and the promised phone call has not happened. A shame. We could have enjoyed a return but we won't chase them down for it.
Our 3rd stay here - says it all. Perfect for a relaxing holiday with dogs. Secure garden and no muddy paws. The most beautiful, quiet spot on the river with views all around and fresh air aplenty. And a first class jacuzzi to enjoy those views from.
