The location was fantastic and the cottage was very comfortable and relaxing. I liked being located so that it was easy to get to the coast or the mountains.

The Cottage was an excellent 'interpretation' of an original slate-worker's home in a slate quarrying village. It carried the sense of that way of life into the modern idiom without losing touch with the original. You could feel the history in the slate and stone. Ideally located for everything the area has to offer, which is a huge amount.
