Stunning property and location

Don’t hesitate to book this beautiful, comfortable and very clean accommodation in a quiet location yet a lovely 10 minute walk into Beddgelert. We enjoyed the mountain view( even in the rain), sheep, sound of cuckoo birds and the creek but the daily highlight was the heritage steam train!

Amazing views and a beautiful home - a perfect place to stay

We spent four days in Beddgelert...and wish we had booked for longer! We had one rainy day, but it was fine because we loved looking out at the sheep, mountains, trees, and the beauty that surrounds the home. The home was lovely and had everything you would need. The owners were terrific and had a large selection of treats waiting for us. They were happy to help and kept the grounds beautiful. For those who are interested, there is a Celtic rainforest next to the property. Our friend was excited to discover it, as they are no longer as common in Wales. These include large areas with ferns and thick moss. To access it, walk out of the home and cross the train tracks, turning to your right to follow the path. You will see it near the house. Many of the trees are covered by moss, as are the stone walls under the trees. It makes for amazing pictures. There are trails throughout the area that you can follow to find more.

Lovely rural setting near village

My two friends and I stayed for a week, and enjoyed the property for its bucolic setting and central location to places we wished to visit. Making friends with the sheep was an added bonus, as well as the little train that passes a few times a day .

Short but sweet stay

We stayed for 4 nights, and it was wonderful. Very quiet, just far enough off the beaten track. Charming little steam train along the bottom of the garden once a day. Accommodation very clean and welcoming.

Fantastic!

The house is beautiful, secluded, with stunning views. Only a 10 minute walk into the village, with Porthmadog a 15 minute drive away. The owners are fabulous and the house has everything and more that you could need. We had a great week (despite the rain) and will definitely return.

Absolutely brilliant, the location is surrounded by nature but only a 10 minute walk to the village shops & pubs. Really comfy bed, well equipped kitchen, modern and spotlessly clean. Would highly recommend and will be booking another trip in future

Absolutely beautiful house and stunning views

On the drive up to the property the views were breathtaking, the views of Snowdon and the Menai strait are difficult to describe in their beauty. The instructions given by the hosts were clear and we found the property with ease. The cottage is just as described, the photos on here are very true to the image in person. The 2 bedrooms were light and clean with plenty of space in both. The 2 bathrooms were clean and modern with fresh towels and hand soap provided. It is clear that this has been modernised with eyes to detail as the kitchen and living space were elegantly decorated. The gift basket and treats for our daughter upon arrival were thoughtful and indicative of Garth and Llinos hosting style. The train traveling past the cottage was a lovely event and the views are indescribable! The photos on here really don’t do justice to the gorgeous setting in which Derwen Fach sits. The sound of the babbling brook can be heard and it just adds to the tranquility of the setting. I have tried my hardest to describe the indescribable in this review but it can only be believed when seen with your own eyes. If you are considering this cottage as a holiday stay I would give you this advice, do it! You will not regret staying at Derwen Fach, we cannot wait to visit again!

A great barn conversion sitting amongst several mountains. Short walk into Beddgelert, which is lovely. Steam trains pass by several times a day. A truly brilliant stay. Climb Moel Hebog if you dare.

Beddgelert

This property lived up to all expectations. The decor, furniture and all equipment was of the highest standard. There was no aspect of the description which was exaggerated. The setting was extremely secluded and private. There are no near neighbours. This is a highly recommended destination in the heart of amazing countryside.

A perfect base to explore Snowdonia National Park.

Absolutely loved our stay in Derwen Fach. It’s a beautiful, modern barn conversation that has everything you need as a base for exploring all that the Snowdonia National Park has to offer. Amazing views from the living room, a cracking log burner to keep you toasty on colder nights, and great communication (and welcome pack) from our hosts. We would definitely stay again!
