The Experience
Denise’s Bothy is a one-off: chock a block with interesting stuff and infused with her warmth and creativity. Solid, small and simple it hunkers happily on its hillside overlooking golden green fields to Anglesey (a 15-minute drive) with the mountains of Snowdonia standing sentry behind. You can climb the largest mountain in Wales – Snowdon – from Llanberis (two miles away) or lazy loafs can take the train! There’s heaps of other outdoorsy things to do: kayaking, paddle boarding, white water rafting; or potter round a National Trust spot – Plas Newydd or Bodnant Gardens are lovely. Head home to get cosy by the wood-burner, fix supper in the narrow kitchen then up to the low raftered mezzanine to sleep deeply in a chunky bed (made by Denise) covered with a nostalgic patchwork quilt. Quirky and characterful: find rope and branch handrails, lime plaster walls and rugged larch floors. Pots of colourful flowers border the lawn, animals mooch about, the scent of herbs wafts through the kitchen window. A rural retreat for a laid-back couple (if you’re looking for mod cons and manicured perfection you won’t find it here) between the mountains and the sea.

We stayed at the Bothy over a weekend. with my girlfriend. When we arrived we were given a warm welcome by Denise. She was super friendly and suggest several places to visit. The accommodation itself is cosy and finished to a high standard, all the decoration is thoughtful and very fitting. It is clear to see that that Bothy has been restored with love. A great place to relax but also conveniently placed to explore the delights of North Wales. We would highly recommend and will 100% be returning.

A delightful place to stay. The Bothy's restoration is just perfect a real home from home, cosy and welcoming, so much detail and love has gone in to the Bothy, it is a real treat to stay there, you will not be disappointed. It has fantastic views from the kitchen and patio area. The location is super we visited Llanberis, Conwy, Betws y Coed, Bedgellert and Anglesey which has fabulous beaches. We highly recommend this Bothy.

Very convenient location. Good meals to be had in The Peak Restaurant and Dyllons. The top of snowdon on the train was a fantastic trip. The electric mountain and the slate quarry were also well worth a visit. Portmerrion and Anglesey also. A great holiday.

What an amazing place and a wonderful host! Booked the Bothy as a surprise weekend away for my fiances birthday and it was like a home away from home. Lovely little touches everywhere, including a welcome tray of welsh goodies. Denise is an absolute delight and it was a joy to spend time there. Cannot recommend highly enough.
