We've been coming here for years and will continue to do so for many more to come.
Superb location to get away. The accommodation is very basic, but it has everything you need to cater for groups, including two toilets and two showers. There's heating in the cottage and also a drying room.
As long as you're not expecting anything plush, then this place is ideal.
Thank you Ty Mawn.

This is a small self-contained cottage standing approximately 900 feet above the village of Llanberis in Gwynedd on the North West approaches to Snowdonia.The cottage and adjoining buildings have been extensively converted to provide basic accommodating for groups of up to 16 in number
Cheaper than camping at only £5 per person and you get the entire house to yourselves!

The other reviews I've seen here are quite correct. The location is fantastic. The surroundings are beautiful.. Access to walks is perfect. But the accommodation is budget and to me falls below standard. The water in the house is from a small stream that dried up when we were there (mid May... I've just returned). We therefore ran out of running water for a group of 14. This is when it's been raining on and off for a while
But also the mould on the walls is a serious point that is not negotiable. The damp was noticeable everywhere.
These two things are deal breakers for me. We stayed there Friday and Saturday night but cut the last night following the lack of water and lost the last day in the mountain.
Also it should be noted that the car park is on a track that is around a 1km walk to the house. It's the only access as the campsite below is not related to the house.
Masses of potential Maybe ok for some. Not for me.

Fantastic views to wake up to, a very good value hostel for a group, take blankets as ots a bit nippy!

Me and my fellow pupils have had a very tough week. After climbing two mountains we expected a very welcoming, relaxing environment. This was not the case. I am not happy. I’ve never been more appalled. Two toilets (outside by the way) for over 15 pupils just does not make the cut. The showers had several spiders and woodlouse coming out drain when having a shower, and to top it all off the 0.5 mile walk from the house to the car park was not negotiable. I would not recommend this accommodation. The bunk beds were not safe and we had someone falling off their bed during the night, luckily there were no injuries. However the morning views were very pleasant but not much else was acceptable.

4 star bunk house, fully equipped kitchen. Two bunk rooms sleeps up to 16 on covered mattresses. No vehicle access so have to carry stuff from parking 1/2 mile away.

Great place to sleep in a storm. A place to feel your true surroundings, basic but awesome
