Ineke P., Jul 2026, Netherlands 🇳🇱
De cottage was comfortabel en van alle gemakken voorzien. We hebben niets gemist. Gewoon genoten van ons verblijf in prachtig Snowdonia.
De dagelijkse bezoekjes van de poes - Mrs. Lloyd - maakten het extra leuk.
We hebben gezwommen in de rivier vakbij de waterval. Heel koud, maar een schitterend plekje!
Er was niets dat ons niet beviel.
(De steile, smalle weg vanuit Bontddu naar het huis was - vooral de eerste keren - wel een uitdaging...!)
