Guest Reviews:
- "The cottage was spot on. It's close proximity to major places we wanted to visit was a plus We really enjoyed our stay." - "Very Good" - "The cottage is beautifully decorated and clean. The thoughtful touches such as vases of fresh flowers and a welcome pack of milk, bread, etc made it extra special. Our boys aged 12 & 14 nicknamed the cottage ‘The hobbit hole’ and insist it’s the best holiday home they’ve ever stayed in. The WiFi definitely added to their seal of approval. We loved that you can join the cycle track from the back garden and highly recommend cycling to the mountains. Some of the most breath taking scenery we’ve ever seen!"

In the fabulous Nant Ffrancon Valley, surrounded by countryside and beautiful mountain views you will find Ceunant Bach. Relax in the hot tub and enjoy the fabulous view or snuggle up inside, in front of the log burner with a nice glass of wine.
The space
Ceunant Bach was originally a small shepherd’s retreat, it has been lovingly and compassionately converted into what you see before you today: this fantastic couples getaway, with a bedroom, filled with a kingsize bed. There is a large lounge/diner with cosy log-burner fire, a pretty and well-appointed kitchen and a beautiful shower room.
The outside space is perhaps even more impressive. Firstly, there is parking with enough space for two cars, then there is a cottage garden with garden furniture and to the rear of the house you will find a small, private patio area complete with private hot tub and lawned space, which allows you to take in the absolutely majesty of the surrounding mountains in style. There are bird boxes, feeders and the occasional red squirrel - recently reintroduced in the nearby forest on the outskirts of Bethesda - all of which add to the calm and serenity of the surroundings.
Facilities include a hot tub, high speed internet access via WiFi, smart TV, washing machine, microwave, under counter fridge/freezer, electric oven and hob, log burner and secure bike storage.
Guest access
Guests will have the entire cottage available to them exclusively for the duration of the reservation, including the outdoor area and hot tub. Note that the property it entirely private but is semi-detached so does share a wall with the adjoining property and it’s residents.
Other things to note
Bed linen is provided but guests are required to bring their own towels.
A basket of logs will be supplied which should last for approx. 2 nights. Thereafter, logs and kindling can be purchased at the local garage.

Ty Capel Saron embodies everything beautiful about North Wales. You can feel the years of history in the former stone chapel which the owners have transformed into a cozy, welcoming self-catering cottage where 10 people can comfortably sleep (12 if you use the living room futon sofa). A great base for walks or to bring the whole family together, not close to pubs/restaurants/shops, but close to Nature! And Tesco delivers groceries if you book in advance, and pubs/restaurants are in Bangor
The space
There are 4 bedrooms on the first floor, as well as a washroom with a sink, toilet and bathtub.
On the ground floor there is an open plan living room and dining room and large, well stocked kitchen. There is also a 'snug'- previously a tv room but now acts as a 5th bedroom if needed. The living room has a bespoke double futon sofa, so two more people can sleep there if needed.
There is a small garden, a firepit, some custom oak benches and some wooden chairs to enjoy the garden on a sunny day. We don't have a barbeque.
A small stream lies at the bottom of the garden, slippery rocks so be careful. But nice to wash your face in the morning for a natural wake up!
