Bryn Derwen Coach House Reviews

Amazing stay here! ! All amenities were brilliant, property was clean, well presented and had all essentials to make our stay just perfect! Loved the hot tub, and the onsite park was an added bonus that my little girl absolutely loved! Perfect location to get to popular places like Portmeirion, Zip world. Thank you for an amazing holiday
A great location with many lovely places to visit just 2030 minutes drive away including Beaumaris, BetwsyCoed, Caernarfon Castle and Llanberis where family members enjoyed a guided kayak experience with Paradise Adventures. The Velocity zip line experience is a few minutes drive away and worth a visit to watch, even if you dont participate nice food being served at the cafe there too. Bethesda is well served by an Londis and a well stocked Tesco Express and you can get a Tesco online grocery delivery to this postcode too. The beds were comfortable with excellent bedding and quality bedroom furniture. Nice to have a full length fridge and freezer and an under counter fridge, as is appropriate for this size of accommodation for those wishing to mostly eat in and self cater. A pint of milk would have been nice on arrival and a teapot please and a few more serving dishes, otherwise a good supply of plates etc. Some newer cushions in the lounge would also lift this area but sofas comfy. We brought a shower mat with us for my mum to use in the shower as a precaution and we were glad we did as there were none provided and it gave us some peace of mind in avoiding slips. The hot tub was great and well maintained throughout our stay. Also very useful to have the walled garden and additional lawned areas to exercise our dog and the zip wire was also great fun. All in all a lovely place to stay.
Bryn Derwen Coach House is a gem of a property in Snowdonia. As well as a spacious property with everything we needed, the grounds were perfect for our family with the children spending endless hours in the adventure playground making a ton of memories.
Thomas
Really nice place to stay, brilliant location nestled in the countryside with really nice surrounding mountains and national park. Great facilities with a modern kitchen and bathrooms. Plenty of room for a large group and a hot tub to top it off. Would recommend to all.
Dhawal
This is great place to stay with a group of family and friends. We were 8 adults and 2 toddlers we all had great time there and hope to come back
The property was brilliant thank you, maybe be a little clearer that there are a few steps down to the living accommodation, plus maybe put slip mats in the showers as I nearly went over a couple of times. But I have to say that the property, grounds and facilities for the young was brilliant and the hot tub went down a storm.
Lovely spacious property set in beautiful grounds. Plenty bedrooms for everyone although one of them didn't have a window that could be opened and the person felt a little claustrophobic. Also took a while to find cutlery drawer in kitchen. This may be an old person's thing because as soon as our daughters arrived, they found it straight away. However, we all had a fabulous week and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a holiday in the BethesdaTregarth area of North wales.
Denisa
We had a fantastic time would 100 recommend this house to anyone looking for a get away! Clean, cozy and complete with all facilities needed for a great holiday! Thank you to the owners who answered my query at 11pm very attentively and promptly!
What a superb holiday home. This place had everything and more! We stayed as originally booked in for snowdonia marathon. Will definitely be checking if it's free for next year. The whole group were impressed.
Tracey
The property was beautiful with everything you would need for a week away from home. Gordon the caretaker was so helpful and knowledgeable about the area and made us very welcome.
Richard Spenser
House was too hot and found it difficult to turn the temperature down, so had to open the windows a lot. Couldn't find the key to the door in the kitchen, which made dining very warm, with the heat from the kitchen. Chefs were excellent. The bunk bed room is difficult to manage when you have a suitcase in there. Apart from these little issues, the property was excellent and everyone said they would return.
Great stay had. Thoroughly enjoyed and would come back. Communal and outside areas especially great. Shout out to Gordon, who was very helpful. Minor points but may help for future bookings 2 party members burned their hands taking trays out of the oven, as the provided oven gloves only cover fingers and also get red hot very fast. Also we had to run the dishwasher twice a day as we kept running out of glassesmugs, would be Good to have a few more.
We had a brilliant holiday, the cottage was lovely the location perfect. Gordon the Caretaker was very friendly and helpful.
Amazing property which we will definitely book again.
Kairon
