we brought along lots of essentials that we didn't actually need as they were already here! (hand soap, fairy, wash pods, clingfilm, foil etc) a very well stocked place to stay. You really only need to bring clothes, shoes and hygiene products - oh and snacks! The welcome tray is great as you can settle in first then hunt for the shop! Loved the shower - just missing something to put your toiletries on. Great to have instant hot water and really toasty heating! I found it very easy to find with the what three words location - being on the main road in this case is a big bonus. We didn't really notice the road noise as we wore ourselves out to notice it! spent most of our time out and about but when we were at the cottage if we were not sleeping we sat in the kitchen/diner watching the lambs leaping and playing. We had a lovely few days here and would highly recommend as a base for visiting around the area. With regards to local attractions such as the deep mine and zip line I would recommend checking their websites and pre booking to avoid a missed opportunity. Also check the terms and conditions with regards to health suitability also. The owners are lovely, really helpful and are only next door if you need anything. This cottage has everything you need for a stay in Wales. So much so you could literally move live there! Blaenau Ffestiniog is just under a 20 min drive away for the mines and zip lines, The Llanberis pass is a great sightseeing opportunity as is the huge local lake at Trawsfyndd All in all for us, our first visit to North Wales - and it was a great experience!
