Cysgod Y Dyffryn Reviews

Martin
We had a fantastic stay at this cosy cottage! It's modern, spotlessand super well-equipped. The hot tub and garden were perfect for relaxing. The owner was really helpful, making our trip to Anglesey, Snowdoniaand the beaches even better. Would definitely recommend!
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!
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.
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!
Emma
