There are varied and stunning walks available straight from the front door! The seaside at Morfa Bwchan (Black Rock Sands) is a short drive away near Porthmadog, and boasts large stretches of beautiful yellow sands, set between the castles of Criccieth and Harlech. There is a local shop and cafe/restaurant in Llanfrothen, two miles away. The nearest big supermarkets (Tesco/Aldi/Lidl) are in Porthmadog, 8 miles from Croesor. There is often a cafe in the village, as well as at the Brondanw estate a mile from Croesor. The Brondanw estate, with its beautifully kept gardens was the family home of Clough Williams-Ellis, the famous architect of Portmeirion, 10 miles from the house.

Disappointed stay The cottage needs updating and brightning up. Very dark. Need some money spending on it

Trip to Snowdonia We had an excellent stay at this property. It is in a fantastic location and the property itself was ideal for us.

Christmas in Croesor We had a lovely 4 night stay over Christmas in this cozy little cottage in a tranquil little village at the foot of Cnicht mountain. The fireplace was a delight, as were the lazy-boy sofas and the well equipped kitchen. The stairs were a bit of a challenge for my knees, but good training for hiking up in the hills and the valley. Plenty of walking opportunities from the village and the most incredible view of Cnicht and across to Snowdon, weather permitting!

Peace and tranquility Plenty of local walks requiring no vehicle once you have arrived. If you're looking for peace and tranquility, this is perfect. Open fire, cosy lounge and central heating as back up. Beautiful views from front windows of mountains. Remember to keep gate closed as local sheep are free to roam. This is our second visit and we're still discovering new walks and places of interest. Nature at it's best!!

September stay. Nice property and very nice location in a friendly village. Not the best of weather but it's nice to come back and sit by a cozy coal fire. I found it hard to get the hang of the TV but as we were out so much iplayer was sufficient if we really wanted the TV on. No other observations, we had a great stay.

We loved the cottage and the location We had such a great week in Croesor. The cottage was lovely - very comfy beds, great shower and well stocked kitchen. We misread the info and thought we needed to take our own duvets/pillows etc but they were supplied! (You just need your own sheets, covers, pillow cases) We absolutely loved the area. Incredible views from the windows of the cottage including sheep and a horse in the field opposite. The valley is beautiful - my 2 young boys loved exploring the old quarry and hillsides around. Plas Brondanw and it's cafe just down the road is a must. We also enjoyed conquering Snowdon, Harlech beach, Criccieth and Caernarfon Castle. Could've easily stayed for 2 weeks! Thank you!

One of the best A very comfortable week in a very beautiful place. Remote enough for us, we like the quiet and the nature, but a lot of things to do without going too far. The house is exactly as described and has a fantastic outlook at the front. Can't really fault it and will be going back.
