We were well informed prior to arrival on the location of the Cottage and parking. The Cottage is well equipped, comfortable and warm. We felt at home there - modern kitchen, bathroom and facilities, underfloor heating throughout, and the entrance area is perfect for coats & walking gear, so you can off load before entering. The location in Betws-y-Coed is perfect. We were lucky to have been there for the first snowfall and the drive into the mountains that morning was magical - there's so much to see and do in the area. I would definitely look to see if 3 Railway Cottages was available if we stayed in Betws-y-Coed in the future.
