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
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.
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.
A beautiful cottage with lovely views of the mountains. The cottage was spotless and was incredibly well equipped with many thoughtful touches throughout, and the bed was superb. The perfect place for a relaxing time with every home comfort and more
It is a truly lovely cottage and every need of visitors was catered for very thoughtfully. Rural retreats has a very good reputation for delivering what they advertise but in this case the website didn't do Garreg Wen justice. We had a wonderful time.
Lovely well equipped cottage. Great views from patio of Snowdonia.
Cottage excellent. Only problem was the dog ban at many local pubs, including the one in the village, and attractions (gardens, castles, Snowdon railway etc)
A simply lovely cottage, Eirien has thought of everything to make the stay there wonderful. Plus it's in a beautiful location. You can be as busy or as relaxed as you want. I've lost count of the number of times I have stayed at Garreg Wen - enough said!!
We had a wonderful short break. The cottage was very comfortable and well equipped. Fabulous views over Snowdonia. A very quiet, peaceful location.
