Explore Caernarfon's 13th-century UNESCO castle (6 miles/15 min), climb aboard Snowdon Mountain Railway (13.5 miles/25 min), visit the ancient hill fort at Dinas Dinlle (4.5 miles/10 min), or discover the Italian-inspired village of Portmeirion (16 miles/30 min).

We loved staying here! The house was cosy and well-equipped, perfect for exploring nearby. The hot tub was definitely a highlight. Quiet location but close enough to walk to a Co-op. Would stay again!
Emma
Wow, what a lovely place! Everything you’d need for a comfy stay, plus little touches like a welcome pack for both us and the dog. Perfectly situated between Caernarfon and Porthmadog, so plenty to explore. We’ll definitely be coming back. Thanks for a fab holiday!
Oliver
We had such a lovely stay! The cottage was super modern, spotlessly clean, warmand really spacious - perfect for our group. Loved the welcome hamper, such a nice touch. Its location was ideal, close to Snowdon, Angleseyand other spots we wanted to visit. Local shops had everything we needed, making it a relaxing Easter break for two couples and three kids. Would definitely return!
Emma
We had a lovely stay at this place! The property was spotless and beautifully presented, really felt luxurious. The owners responded swiftly when the broken gate lock and outside light needed fixing, which was great. The only thing is, a more secure fence would help with small dogs escaping. We’d definitely come back for another relaxing getaway!
Emma
We had a lovely stay! The place was really cosy and well-equipped, especially in the kitchen. The hot tub was perfect after a day of exploring on foot. The village itself had everything we needed, like a bakery and a Co-op, plus a few takeaways and a pharmacy. It’s also conveniently close to many must-see spots around the area. Would definitely come back!
Emma
We loved the place! The welcome pack was really thoughtful. The owner responded swiftly when we had a tiny issue. The nearby deli serves fantastic rollsand the vineyard just a short walk away makes the best drinking chocolate ever!
Sarah
The cottage was lovely, spacious enough for everyone in the family. Inside, it was spotless and really cosy. With almost constant rain, having a comfy place to relax was a lifesaver! If it rains, Anglesey’s the way to go!
Hannah
We loved the spaciousness of the house, perfect for our multigenerational family. The kitchen diner was fantastic and well stocked, although we did need to bring our own bin liners and dishwasher tablets. The second sitting room turned out to be really handy for games and relaxing. The travel cot and high chair were a bonus, but sadly no stair gates for the little ones. The big garden was great for kids to run around, just watch out for the patio pools when it rains-they fill up fast! Good spot to explore North Wales, though Penygroes itself isn’t much happening.
Emma
This cottage is really lovely, with all the essentials and then some. It’s stunning and feels special. The owner’s got a real knack for making you feel welcome. Definitely a five-star experience from us!
Alex Turner
Wow, what a fantastic place! The house is truly luxurious and really had everything we needed for our stay. The hot tub was a real highlight, perfect for relaxing. Just a heads up, follow the directions carefully - satnav might lead you astray in the village. Also, the cleaners tend to finish around 5pm, so don’t expect to get in before then. We’d definitely recommend it though!
Emily Harper
Honestly, this place was fantastic! Plenty of room for all of us and super well stocked. The beds and sofa were so comfy, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing holiday. We loved it!
