Hello, Thank you for choosing to stay with us. It is always nice to have guests who look after the building. There is a children's play area on the other side of the field in Talysarn and a child friendly bike park in the village too. By next Spring our outdoor area will be refurbished but young children would need to be supervised.

Great for large groups

Ten of us stayed as six were climbing Snowdon. The Ranger path is just 15min away.So refreshing to have not only five double bedrooms but also three bedrooms plus a WC. The large kitchen table and large living room were great as so often these spaces cannot accommodate all the guests.Lou & Jon were very responsive.The chapel has quite a history and the Dorythea Quarry World Heritage site is a short walk away.The whole valley was very Methodist and as a result there are no local village pubs.

Views of Slate

This a charming location and therefore very quiet. It is not on the "beaten path" but with modern digital mapping, not hard to find. It is large, clean and fully functional for a large group. There were nine (9) of us. The kitchen was very capably addressed for the those who cook. The best part for my family were the host and hostess: Jon and Lou. They were remarkably friendly and quite informed about the region and its history. A more affable experience might not happen again. I so enthusiastically applaud their hospitality.

Be aware of the extra hidden cost ! never at other places before

We were looking for relaxing family holidays and saw good reviews for this place so decided to stay It look beautiful location and the host provided instructions in advance the impression was very well coming host it was really assuring but A Few issues I need to emphasis 1 This is very remote location nearest village shop is ~ 2miles away the kitchen is well equipped but the host don’t provide any basic starter kit (ex:Tea Coffee cream ) which you get at most of the places specially so remote 2. They don’t have proper internet or powerful wi-fi as result if you want to watch any programme on TV Netflix it take so much time to down load you have to wait in the middle of the programme you are watching 3. They charge for the electricity bill separate after your stay we were given a bill for £54 .00 for electricity for 4 night stay (we didn’t cook and styed mostly outdoor) 4. in the initial booking although the cleaning fees is included if you don’t clean a thing or two they charge extra (for ex they were no happy that one cereal bowl a coffee mug and greater was not washed ) Also they expect everything back to the place where it was before 5. There are instruction every where to follow ( forget that you are on holidays) 10 AM is the deadline to leave the place otherwise they will charge you extra We have travelled so much till now this was such a strict protocol to follow We were really happy for the rural quiet place huge for ourselves but there indoor games were for kids T/t table was removed during lock down as the host stated we really felt sorry for the loss these people may had during the lock-down We accepted that we needed to pay extra for the pet we had as we choose pet friendly accommodation also by mistake the wet Towel came with us we posted them back as they are charging substantial amount for missing /broken items be aware! (as the host responded that to buy anything they have to go to Bangoor the travel cost is also included I guess) In nutshell if you want to go away during Holiday and cook for 20-30 people and have special OCD to clean and tidy up then this is the place for you I don’t write bad review as I didn’t had any bad experience so far in fact I felt the host was friendly So just stating the Facts

Great place for family trip up Snowdon

Just as expected from photos and description. Living, dining and sleeping spaces all perfectly reasonable for a group stay. Everything required for a stay in the Welsh countryside. Large kitchen and dining area great for family meals and games. If you want bells and whistles go to a hotel, if you want functional, homely, multi generational provision at a good cost, this place does the job. Would definitely return.

Such a beautiful area with lots of hidden gems to discover on walks. Most activities that we did took between 30mins to a hour to get to. But the house so big and has everything you need. I know lots of things had to be removed and changed due to Covid but we adapted.

It was warm and welcoming, the owners were brilliant at communicating before we arrived and made us feel right at home. The pool table/table tennis was great fun in the big kitchen diner. Co-op just up the road. Thank you for having us, we'd love to return !

Great large holiday cottage

This cottage is great for large groups. It is a little worn but that makes it great when visiting with children and also when returning covered in mud from walking. The cottage has everything you could need for a comfortable stay (except a full sized bath!) we would visit again. The owners were very helpful and communication was great.Thanks.

Walk up Snowdon

13 adults and 5 children had a wonderful time on their Snowdon trip. Hose wa amazing a provided everything we needed for our stay. Facilities in the kitchen were amazing. The family enjoyed the PS2 and the snooker table. The weather was excellent so we were able to enjoy a BBQ and Al Fresco dining!!! A lot of dog walking went on by the locals who were all friendly and stopped to chat. We can't thank Andrew and Deborah enough and all the family want to go back.

Lovely spacious property. Very clean and comfortable with great communal areas.

As a mixed age family group, the property was perfect for us. The bedrooms are large with plenty of storage space. The 4 bathrooms were all clean and well equipped. Entrance hall had lots of coat hooks and boot storage space. Upstairs the open plan kitchen/diner was huge and offered lovely views of Snowdon. The kitchen is amazingly well equipped with all the appliances and utensils you could need. The separate lounge had plenty of large comfy sofas. Everyone enjoyed using the pool table and the table tennis and there was a choice of other games too. We had a dog with us and the property is very dog friendly with two lovely walks from the door. We loved our stay there. Deb and Andy are really friendly and helpful and made us all feel very welcome. They have put a lot of thought into what guests might need and made it feel homely as well as functional. I would recommend Capel Tanrallt without hesitation and hope to return there someday!
