Llanberis is situated right at the base of Mount Snowdon and attracts hardy walkers and climbers throughout the year. This feature is enhanced by a number of festivals and celebrations all year round, such as the Snowdon Race in July and the Snowdonia Marathon in October. As part of the Snowdonia National Park, Llanberis is surrounded by beautiful scenery, including two lakes, Llyn Padarn and Llyn Peris, which are a great attraction for wildlife enthusiasts, walkers and ornithologists alike. If climbing Snowdon sounds too much like hard work, there is always the option provided by the Snowdon Mountain Railway. Alternatively, if you prefer to remain at ground level, Llanberis is well served by a variety of restaurants, pubs and shops.
Famous for its choirs, stunning mountain ranges and beautiful valleys, this wonderful country has something for everyone. From Snowdonia in North Wales to the Brecon Beacons and the Pembrokeshire Coast in the South.
I recently stayed here for my brother in laws birthday with other family members, the location is really good lots of eateries within walking distance and the local pub was lovely and the staff were very friendly. The house it’s self is very dated and is in need of some tlc, there were coffee stains on the wall, plaster falling off walls and just not clean at all. We asked for a stair gate which was left but it did not fit so it was pointless, the travel cot which was in the porch area was dirty and would not let my dog sleep in it let alone my baby, the house was filthy, there were cobwebs in the shower and seating area, behind the sofa in the lounge was disgusting also it looked as if it hadn’t been cleaned for months. We were asked to take off the bedding before departing, the mattress protectors were disgusting, some of them had blood stains on them and some were stained with urine, the pillows and duvets were the same, I don’t know how people think it is acceptable to rent a house out like that. Also the sauna was broken something which we were not notified about upon arrival. All I can say is i was glad to leave and come home to my clean house.
We stayed at Halford Hill for a week for a family celebration - 17 of us in total and a mixture of adults and children. We had a great week, the house was a perfect base for us and became home from home. It is a bit tired in places but absolutely fine for the price that we paid. The kitchen was on the small side for the number of people but the living areas, dining room, bathrooms and bedrooms were all spacious enough. It was well equipped with washing machine, dishwasher, tumble dryer etc. The central heating and hot water systems worked very well. I would definitely recommend Halford Hill for a gathering of this size, and it’s location is great for exploring North Wales. However, due to the number of stairs, this house would not be suitable for anyone with mobility problems.
Booked for an extended family reunion weekend Halford Hill was just perfect - with seven bedrooms and accomodation on four floors there was plenty of space for everyone and never a sense of being cramped. The dining room with long table for big family meal worked well and welcoming touches like milk in the fridge, flowers and a loaf of Bara Brith were much appreciated. With a group ranging from 11 months old to 60+ the activities on offer in Llanberis and the surrounding area were plentiful; we just wished that we had longer. The house was well equipped and some of our party took advantage of the sauna which they considered a real bonus. The weather was stunning therefore we had no need of the wood-burning stove but wood was provided; the lounge(s) were comfortable and cosy with plentiful seating for all. Provision of bedding, cot and high chair was helpful too - all in all a great house for a large family group weekend!
We spent 3 days at Halford Hill with some friends and plenty of kids. The house never felt cramped, was always nice and warm and had plenty of room for the whole group. The sauna in the downstairs bathroom was an added bonus especially after running the Anglesey half marathon! Location is fantastic and I really can't fault the place. Would definitely come back if ever in the Llanberis area.
A perfect location and a beautiful well kept house, felt very homely. Would definitely recommend it and will visit again.
Perfect accommodation for our family of 16, could not fault it! The living room was fabulous with plenty of room for everyone to come together.
Had the best weekend! Couldn't fault the property, it was big warm and very cosy. We loved every minute of our stay! Will be back again for sure.
We stayed at the house for new year. Was great for the amount of people. House is in great condition. The location is great for shops, restaurants, walks and surrounding attractions. Only complaint was lack of instruction about heating, recycling collection etc. A customer handbook would be useful. Also shame about lack of garden space. The side of the house would make a lovely patio area if it was tidied up and fenced. Would be helpful if you have a dog. Other little things such as a dvd player in the snug would of been helpful for the kids and positioning of mirrors in bedrooms could be improved ie on full height walls near plugs ,some kitchen equipment needed replacing, just constructive criticism, overall a great holiday and have recommended
Very comfortable and great value for the weekend. The sauna was a big hit, just wished we had more time to utilise it - maybe next time!
The size was just right for the number of people, 12 Adults 2 children and there was sufficient parking for 5 cars. The sauna and log fire just added to the ambience. The main lounge was great for adults leaving the 2 children to use the smaller TV room.
Central location for many walking/climbing and water activities. We had a fabulous time with grandchildren and friends. The house was perfect for a large group and the sauna after a long walk was superb!
Very comfortable and spacious accommodation for our group. Very convenient for walking from the door up to Snowdon and the shops, pubs and ice cream parlour in the village of Llanberis.
The house had a very family friendly atmosphere. Loved the extra touch of quality with the sauna as a pamper for the adults. Had a really good week.
The cottage was lovely, excellent spacious lounge, bedrooms were a good size, bathrooms were great, sauna was excellent. The cottage owner was very helpful in giving directions and local information.
Worked out perfect for a large group, everyone in the group loved it and we're already discussing rebooking. Everything from booking to leaving was very well organised, a very well run and efficient company.
We Stayed in Halford Hill in October 2013. there were 15 adults and we had a fantastic time. everything we needed was provided included pots and pans, cutlery and crockery. it is in a great location. with the national slate museum only 10-15 minutes walk and the train to Snowdon around the same. We may be going back this year but if not we definitely will be in the future. Thanks so much
Lovely house with a beautiful view of the lake. There was a group of 15 that went and every single one of us loved it! Would definitely recommend to anyone. It was just perfect!
This was booked for a weekend to celebrate special birthdays of several work colleagues. We needed somewhere large enough to accomodate 12+ an within easy travelling distance of Liverpool. I must say when I looked at the website after it been booked I felt a little disappointed as it is so plain to look at and not quite the country retreat I had anticipated - the furnishings also looked a bit basic! However I was pleasantly suprised as on arrival we were greeted with the smell of new carpets! In fact the whole house had had a makeover since a fire in May 2012 and the website is not updated even now, The bedrooms are beautifully appointed and beds are comfortable. It was lovely and warm and the cooking facilities were great for a big Christmas dinner! Even the sun shone for our November walk! Great for a big party!
We had a great holiday. An excellent place to stay for groups and families. It was situated in the centre of attractions and local shops. We would love to come back. For me it was 5 star in rating.
We liked the location and the convenience for sightseeing and activities.
Huge property fully equipped with absolutely everything you could possibly need for your stay. Everywhere was lovely and clean, there wasn't a single complaint from anyone in my party of 17, we all agreed we would return. Plenty of amenities nearby, we used the Co-op, the pubs and the local Indian take away. Absolutely beautiful place for walking. Spot on, thanks.
Very comfortable house that accommodated us all really well. Gorgeous view of the lake too.
The house was perfect for our family break and was an ideal location for the path up Snowdon. The bathrooms were in need of renovation but otherwise it was clean, comfortable and warm. Lots of pubs and restaurants nearby and the owner was very friendly. Would recommend although not suitable for those with mobility difficulties as there are 3 flights of stairs.
A huge property, fully equipped with everything you need for a big circle of family or friends. Lovely open fire, the whole building was toasty and warm. We all had a fabulous time!
I cannot speak highly enough of Halford Hill. It met our every requirement and I would happily recommend it to any large group.
The size of the house, the location, the sauna, the sitting room and the owner was lovely.
Great location and very central. House was a great size for a large party and had everything we needed to manage feeding everyone. Sauna was a great warm down after a long hike up the mountain. Having free bara brith was great. The landlady was super understanding when our over active puppy chewed the door frame! Thanks so much :)
Perfectly situated for climbing Snowdon. Plenty of good facilities locally.
The location was amazing and the house was big, ideal for large families. Loved the sauna and the long table in the dining room was brilliant. A very good selection of restaurants nearby.
Overall, had a good time in a very nice conveniently, well situated home!
Excellent property for large family groups - lots of space and accessible for a variety of days out.
Good location, easy access to Snowdon and surrounding areas such as Caernarvon and Llandudno. Easy walking distance to shops and local attractions such as the Slate Museums and Snowdon Mountain.
The house was lovely and was the perfect size for my big family. We all had a wonderful time and can't wait to do it again.
The places we visited around the property were really lovely. The property was great for the size of our group (12) and it meant that everyone had their own bedrooms. We would definitely recommend this property to a large group of friends or family. The fruit loaf (delicious) and the milk, coffee & teabags were greatly appreciated.
Very spacious house that catered well for the 3 generations of our family, well located for many attractions and the owner very helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay again
The owner left a Bara Brith cake and a bottle of Champagne and that was quite thoughtful. The lounge was good with the log burner and plenty of seating for our group.
This is a fantastic house for larger parties, great location, lots of space and the sauna is an extra treat! Had a fabulous weekend there thank you
Property ideally situated for many local varied attractions for the whole family.
Size of property allowed a large party with plenty of personal space.
Good car parking. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The sauna was appreciated.
The house was very pleasant, the owner very helpful - very enjoyable. The log fire was cosy.
The owner was extremely helpful. A nice touch was a good welcome pack with food and flowers. No attempt to squeeze in too much sleeping at the expense of the day comfort. Excellent sauna facility. The catering equipment, cutlery, and crockery were more than adequate for a number of guests and all of good quality, state of the art etc. We definitely intend another visit. Well done!
A very comfortable and warm house. Enough room to either join in with the main group or to find a space for quiet contemplation. The sauna was an added bonus. All 16 of us enjoyed a great family gathering. An excellent location in the village.
Great to find a place to accommodate the whole party, my Dutch visitors were very impressed! Very helpful and considerate owners.
The owners are very nice and helpful, who go out of their way to ensure everthing is ok. There was plenty of off road parking for 6 - 7 cars, and plenty of good restuarants nearby.
There was lots of space for a large party to divide into groups or for folk to find some privacy. Llanberis is a really good touring centre but also have several days' worth of attractions within waliking distance.
Great house; beds and bedding all high standard. Clean and comfy. Great for my 30th! Well equipped.
We all enjoyed the space this accommodation offered and it's comfortable surroundings ensured we had a very enjoyable break.
A great base for the surounding activities. Plenty of off road parking! The sauna was an added bonus.
It was a good weekend and the size of the house allowed us to have a great weekend with friends.
Great location & views. We all enjoyed my birthday party. It was great to be able to seat everyone for dinner round one table. Sauna was lovely & well used.
The cottage was advertised for 16 and 16 of us went - 9 children and 7 adults. There was plenty of space. The sitting room was very nice and comfy and there were plenty of bathrooms and lots of hot water - often an issue with that many children.We were in an ideal location and visited several wonderful walks and lovely beaches all within 40 minutes drive. And the village had all the shops and conveniences we could wish for.
We enjoyed the walks around the area, and we really enjoyed the trip up Snowdon, we had a very pleasant time. I honestly cannot fault the holiday, or the property.
The house was lovely, everything looked/felt new. The dinning room is great, being able to sit everyone round the table together. The Sauna was a nice little extra and was taken advantage off. I took a walk to Aba Falls. This was lovely, particularly after the heavy rain. I will be going back to do this walk again.
Great house, fantastic location and plenty of room for the 15 people in our party.Would definitely recommend this place to any one planning a getaway either to catch up with a big group of friends or to experience the local attractions, of which there are many.
Really well equipped property; very comfortable beds, which is not always the case with holiday accomodation. The sauna was a real bonus.
Spacious, well equipped & owners helpful.
We made a trip to Shell Island which is a fabulous beach with endless sand dunes and shells everywhere. The sauna in the property was lovely.The property was great and I have already recommended it to others.
There was plenty of space in the property.All the beds were extremely comfortable.The kindness of the owners (brought logs for fire on Sat)Superbly equipped kitchen.Very comfortable lounge.The sauna - a fantastic extra after a hard days walk up Snowdon.The price !
The scenery, facilities and the weather all combined to make this an excellent holiday. My family and I liked the holiday house, which provided very good accommodation for us. We could all gather together or "do our own thing" very easily, due to the layout. The sauna and log fire were favorite features. The kitchen was very well equipped.
Having enough space to get all the family together without feeling cramped.
The house is spacious and well-laid out, the village has all the useful amenities and the countryside is amazing. A walk through the slate quarries is highly recommended.
The sauna! Easy access to off road cycle track for kids. Easy access toSnowdon
The large lounge area and the sauna - perfect for a large group. Great location for some scrambling too!
It was nice to find a house large enough to accommodate the whole group at such an affordable price
Nice to have large group (13) able to eat and sit together in the property
