The hosts were attentive and helpful, providing local advice. I especially appreciated the breakfastwith amazing porridge. The location is good for walks, and I walked the Llanberis path.

My room faced the road, so noise from traffic was noticeable quite early. THERE were no tea facilities in the room, requiring a trip downstairs. I missed having a bath, as only a shower was available.

Wonderful stay near Snowdon

Amy and James were very cute! They provided clear instructions for getting to Llanberis and information on local facilities. The service was perfect , and I thoroughly enjoyed the cooked breakfasts. Amy promptly refilled coffee and offered extra toast. We enjoyed wine in the lounge by the log burner after hiking. It reminded me of home.

The tea and coffee facilities are in the lounge downstairs. I would have preferred them in the room.
