Snug, centrally Cottage With Enviable Lake and Snowdon Massif Views.

Chwarel Goch Bach, (Red Quarry, in English) which is situated on the Snowdonia Slate Trail. Was originally a farmhouse was built over 100yrs ago and is a comfortable and well equipped cottage, and the end wing of owner's house. It comprises a bedroom via a narrow open staircase from the cosy lounge, spacious kitchen/dining room, large porch and shower room. It is a fantastic setting where one can be extremely energetic, climbing, mountaineering, cycling, fell running,,wild water swimming, or meander leisurely, visiting National Trust properties, castles, and countless other attractions. Ride the Snowdon Mountain Railway, Welsh Highland Railway or Llanberis Lake Railway, three of the great little trains of Wales, or just simply chill out with a book and relax surrounded by some of the best views in Wales.

Comfortable and cosy
Overall excellent. Comfortable and cosy. Fantastic views of Snowdon and LLanberis. Elderly and people of poor mobility might have difficulty in accessing steep stairs to bedroom. Access lane very narrow. Reversing needed if meeting oncoming traffic.

Christmas Get away
Both property and location were ideal for our requirement. the property was warm and cosy ,well laid out ,and very welcoming. This being the first time we have been away for Christmas ,we didn`t know what to expect, but the owners made it home from home, and decorated the place with Tree, and lovely home made decorations. The location is peaceful with amazing views, only five minutes from Llanberis ,and short journeys to Caernarfon etc . The owners were very welcoming and made us feel "at home", and we will hopefully being going again in the future ,to take in the surrounding walks.

Lovely property, very well equipped and comfortable. Fabulous views across Llanberis lake and cottage is in a beautiful peaceful location. Joan & Dennis were so welcoming and the Welsh cakes a thoughtful touch. Open staircase is very narrow so wouldn't recommend if you have any mobility issues .

Wonderful stay with gorgeous views!
Lovely cute little cottage, cosy and ideal for a couple to stay at & Joan was very friendly and accommodating! The cottage had everything it needed! The bed was very nice to sleep in and the blanket was very warm! It’s somewhere great to rest your head after a busy day of mountain climbing and great adventures! Very close to Snowdon so not a far drive to get to where you need to be! The views from the window were incredible and really gives you a sense of the true beauty of the area. There was plenty of information available at the cottage, such as leaflets/pamphlets and a folder containing information about the local area and popular trails if you’re not sure where to start. Would love to come and visit again!

Lovely vacation spot
The object was well equipped. Especially the washing machine was of great use for us. We had some trouble with the wifi at first, but Joan and Dennis were helping us without saying and apart from that gave us good advice for our trips. At our arrival we were presented fresh self-made bara brith (cake) and fresh milk in the fridge. The object ist well above the lake opposite of Llanberis, so you walk some km and height, but that's part of the reason to travel to Wales, right!? In Llanberis (about 4km) you have a Spar store open from 7-23 and the next petrol station is near as well. Conclusion: If you want to spent some quit days with great view, that's your spot. If you want to explore Snowdonia and climb Mt. Snowdon, you have a great basecamp.

Lovely cottage with amazing views!
From the moment I arrived, Chwarel Goch and the surrounding area took my breath away! It is simply stunning. The views are incredible and well worth the money alone! The cottage is spotless, well stocked with everything you need and the bed is lovely and comfy! I slept so well during my stay! Joan and Dennis are a lovely couple, and wonderful hosts. The cake was very much appreciated! There's so much to see and do in the area, I could have spent an extra 2 weeks and not seen everything I wanted to see! I did manage an interesting walk on the Slate Trails which was very informative, went onto Anglesey and climbed Snowdon. Llanberis is only 10 minutes drive, and has a very nice chip shop (recommended)! I left Chwarel Goch with so many happy memories and will definitely return! Thank you to Joan and Dennis! :)
