Nothing. It was great

The country side location was amazing. Lovely friendly welcome from the hosts. Fields all all around filled with sheep and other wildlife. Nice cosy and comfy rooms. A great place all round. Thanks for a lovely weekend.

We loved our stay at Penmachno Hall. The self catering apartment was beautiful - the whole property oozes character and charm. We were mountain biking, and the hall is in a perfect location to ride to the Penmachno mtb trails. The hosts were amazing and helped us when we had a little accident on the trials. Their communication was also excellent prior to arriving. The hot tub is a brilliant addition and in a stunning and peaceful area of the grounds of the Hall - just what we needed after riding our bikes.

Nothing! Everything you could possibly wish for was catered for and taken care of!

Lauraine is the best host you could wish for! Great communication prior to our arrival. She was there to meet us when we rocked up, and showed us around. The Coach House is super clean and tidy and everything you need is there - from toiletries in the bathroom, to soap and dishwasher tablets in the kitchen, milk in the fridge, biscuits on arrival, bathrobes for the hottub, various outdoor seating areas with chairs, benches and tables, a BBQ, and many books, DVD’s and hiking maps and walking guides and tourist info for the area. The location is just beautiful, surrounded by hills and sheep. It’s just so quiet there. But yet, there is a village with a pub and small Londis shop just a few hundred meters away. Betws is also just a 10 min drive from the house. Thank you Lauraine for making our Easter stay with yoy so very warm and welcome! I can highly recommend the coach house to anyone looking for a place to stay in Snowdonia.

It was proper in inner roads, and if going out at night quite dark. The small kitchen space but the host was so lovely to leave us some essentials such as milk, oil, tea. A thoughtful couple.

The friendly personality of the host. The interior of the rooms so quirky, loved the crystals on the door as I’m a crystal lover

Our main objective was to climb Mount Snowden for that the location was ideal, hidden tucked away in a rural setup. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, Lauraine made us feel very welcome and comfortable. We all had a great time there.

Not much at all in Penmachno itself (small shop and a quiet pub is all we found), we would probably look to stay in, or closer to, Betws-y-Coed as we spent a lot more time there eating out, shopping, playing on the central field. As a family of 4 we felt a little remote in Penmachno and would enjoy being closer to Betws next time. We found the property quite dated in terms of it's décor, but that's just our style preference/taste, and it is very in keeping with the age of the property and very well kept. We found the sofa to be quite uncomfortable, but again, it served it's purpose well for our 3 night stay. We would have liked to have had our children in the same room with us, and not in a completely separate room to us across the hall. (I know the owners would also like to address this too but haven't been granted permission to do so which is a shame. We wasn't aware of this before we travelled, but we made it work and our kids were very brave and stayed on their own. (We just kept both room doors open...!) The grandfather clock kept us awake (especially my wife), but if you ask Lorraine she would happily turn it off.. my only advice would be to ask/offer guests on their arrival so they aren't so disturbed on night 1 :-)

Beautiful location, and served as a great base for us to explore Snowdonia. The grounds we immaculate and very pretty. The property was very, very clean and there was lots of little touches (games for the kids etc.) which made our stay fun. We enjoyed the Hot Tub which we had exclusive use of. Lots of room to park which suited me well. Everything was there that we needed, towels,

Our stay at Penmachno Hall was amazing and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Simon and Lauraine were extremely welcoming. The rooms we were staying in were nicely furnished and accompanied by a range of movies and books to entertain yourselves with. The house had a wonderful view of the fields outside. It's a great property and we would stay there again. To top it all, we were able to laze in the hot tub after our long hike up Snowdon.

Nothing at all.

The house is very cosy, the hosts are very friendly, generous and welcoming, the furniture is spectacular, huge space and great facilities. Splendid for families, we got virtually the whole floor + a garden for ourselves, with an old-style apartment for the parents (with bath instead of shower) and a newer-style room+shower for the children. If you don't like taking a bath, simply take a shower at the children room's shower.

Lauraine was so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble, we felt like we were friends staying in her home rather than paying guests. When Simon came home from work later in our stay he was just as lovely. A wonderful stay with wonderful hosts, a wonderful house in an amazing location, especially suited for visiting Snowdonia National park! Thank you both again from the Booth family of 4!

We loved the location as it was easy to get to the many attractions in the area. Lorraine and Simon were absolutely lovely and welcoming and made everything very comfy

The apartment is in a beautiful house in lovely grounds and the addition of a hot-tub whilst we were there will be a great feature for guests. The apartment is very clean and well equipped but more geared up to eating out as cooking was via a combi microwave/oven/grill and small hob. Bedrooms are large and very comfortable with good en suites. The location is very quiet so perfect if you want to escape the crowds but well placed to drive to attractions nearby. The hosts are lovely and welcoming.

Lounge/diner a bit cramped for 4 adults.

Hotel level service at a self- catering property. Everything has been thought of to make your stay comfortable and memorable. Location fantastic to access whole of the Llyn peninsula. Hosts on site and very welcoming. Very special garden for sundowners and BBQ meals. Walking distance to village pub and shop.

The furniture in lounge area wasn't that comfy. The kitchen only had a microwave and therefore feeding a family of 4 with prepared meals (as there were limited eateries in area) was a slow process. The local pub was very basic and food was just about edible.

Clean accommodation with exceptionally comfortable beds. Self catering facilities were small but functional. Very spacious rooms. Great reception with Welsh cakes, homemade jam and salted butter. The children adored the chocolate eggs.
