Fabulous location. High quality fittings and furnishings. This cottage would be great for anytime of the year. A real chill out place.
Lovely location, close to Bodnant. Cottage clean and spacious. Enjoyed the welcome food offerings.
A beautiful cottage in a remote location with stunning views of the Carneddau mountains, equipped and maintained to a very high standard
A beautiful rural getaway. The cottage was lovely and had everything you need for a stay away from home. It was cosy and spotlessly clean. The views were amazing and the location was perfect. The owners were on hand should we need them for anything, and called on our first evening to say hello and ensure we had what we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Garreg Wen to anyone, we had a lovely time, and would be more than happy to visit again!
Super little cottage, very clean with excellent selection of books and guides to local area. Wonderfully comfortable bed.
This is a wonderfully equipped cottage in a very peaceful location, near the spectacular Bodnant Gardens, but also within easy access of Conwy and some lovely beaches - we especially loved Morfa Beach. The kitchen is a good size and we appreciated the Welcome Hamper when we arrived. The views of the mountains are stunning! The lounge is comfy and the wood burner helps make it really snuggly. Eirien has thought of everything you might need including a wealth of information on a range of attractions. Our pooch loved it too! Would highly recommend.
Very well presented property, well equipped. Welcome hamper a nice touch, but it would have been nicer to have butter rather than a spread - good opportunity to promote Welsh produce.
Lovely cottage, beautifully kept and with wonderful views all round. Many interesting and scenic places are within easy visiting distance. There is a lot of tourist information at the cottage as well as books, DVDs and games just in case the weather lets you down.
Cosy, comfy and well equipped, they even accommodated our 6 year old boy (who quite happily slept in the bed with us!) We would definitely stay again.
A beautifully presented and comfortable holiday property with everything one could need. The location is excellent and the views are splendid.
It had everything you could think of and believe me we tried
Lovely cottage with splendid views. Just not neutral enough for a holiday stay we felt. It seemed like we were house sitting while the owner was away due to the amount of unnecessary ‘stuff ‘ around the place. One essential piece of equipment was missing however on sunny days. Despite showing a sun shade complete with a nice patio set on the website, this was no longer there. For sure, many would disagree with these comments judging by the ‘home from home’ listings in the visitors book. Nevertheless, we did enjoy our stay at Garreg Wen. Thank you!
Fabulous place. The cottage had everything! Amazing outlook and the peace was wonderful. Loved every second of our stay. The only regret we didn’t stay longer. Hopefully would go again anytime.
Fabulous location. Cottage is very well kitted out. WiFi is the only slight gremlin.
Beautifully appointed cottage and spectacular scenery. Very helpful and kind owner. Unfortunately we could only stay for 2 nights rather than 4 booked because of Welsh Covid rules announced just after our arrival. We hope to return one day.
We LOVED this cottage. Location is beautiful - had some amazing sunsets and the walking from the doorstep was great. This cottage seriously has everything you could possibly need. From the massive basket of logs (and the woodburner was already laid ready for the first fire) to the pencil sharpener that I found when I needed one (balanced on the eraser on the desk, just in case you need one of those too!) they have thought of literally everything. You could show up on the first night, with nothing apart from your toothbrush and paste and you would be ready for the start of your stay. The only thing I would have changed about the holiday was; we would have booked it for longer!!
Everything about Garreg Wen is perfect. Beautiful cosy cottage with great log fire. Always a very well stocked welcome basket. The cottage has everything you need for an amazing holiday. Owner very friendly and welcoming. Very dog friendly.
Lovely break. Garreg Wen is the perfect cottage. So comfortable and great views of Snowdonia. Love staying here
A very comfortable and well equipped cottage in a beautiful location. We were blessed with wonderful September sunshine.

If the restrictions are reintroduced and you are forced to cancel your holiday due to legal restrictions, please be rest assured that we will help you to move your booking within the same property, offer a voucher to be used within the same property within a year or cancel your booking in this instance and we will refund you the price you paid in full.
If you are concerned about the potential impact of Covid-19 on your holiday plans, outside of legal restrictions, we strongly advise you to seek out travel insurance which covers you in these and other eventualities.
