Set alongside the tranquil Glaslyn River, the cottage enjoys beautiful river and hillside views and offers comfortable, well-presented accommodation perfect for couples, friends, and families looking to relax and reconnect.

A brilliant cottage, full of extras and located in such a good position.
Such a brilliant cottage, full of extras and located in such a good position. Weather has been fantastic throughout the stay. Climbed Snowdon twice, Swallow Falls, Rhosneigr Beach and Betswy-Coed and lots nice food! Thank you for a very relaxing stay!

Thanks for a lovely stay!
We have stayed for the Easter weekend (mum +3 boys) Weather hasn't been great, Storm Dave! But we were cosy. We enjoyed biking and ice creams in the village.

Clean, homely and beautifully presented
We had a very comfortable stay her in Riverstone Cottage. It was clean, homely and beautifully decorated. Everything we could possibly need was thoughtfully provided. We were lucky to enjoy some very sunny days and the stunning views made our stay even more special. Watching and listening to the sound of the running river at the bottom of the garden was truly the cherry on the cake! We will certainly return! Many thanks.

Comfortable home that is an excellent base for beautiful walks.
Beautiful house equipped with every convenience, including a washing machine with built-in dryer, a bathtub, and a large fridge-freezer combination. The back garden borders a stream and has views of the mountains. It was wonderful to fall asleep in the evening to the sound of the stream.
It is also an excellent base for a variety of beautiful walking routes. Some start in the village itself, while others require a 5–20 minute drive.
Tip: find the path that climbs the mountain you can see from the back garden and continue walking for 20–30 minutes. You’ll arrive in a stunning natural area that is not listed as a popular hiking route. There’s a 360-degree panoramic view, and you can walk around for an hour without encountering anyone.
