The owners had thought of everything and even put chocolates on the pillows which was a really thoughtful touch. I honestly can't fault it and would thoroughly recommend it.
Although the weather was not great - an awful journey through the rain, wind and floods we had a fantastic time. Would.d recommend the National Trust sites in the area and the dogs loved the beaches which are accessible to them at this time of year. The most important thing was the Old Post Office which offered so much.
Perfect from start to finish the Old Post Office is immaculate with everything you need and then some. Wish we would have had nicer weather so we could have tried the outside space but I suppose you cant have everything. Scenery is spectacular and pubs and shops 2 minutes and 5 minutes walk. Lovely week. Lynn and Ben the owners ave thought of everything and the wine and welsh cakes were a lovely touch. Thank you so much.
A lovely cottage with everything you could possibly need. A fantastic kitchen and very comfortable beds. We were very lucky regarding the weather, sunny every day. Had a great time, as did our two dogs, who loved the beaches. The owners have thought of everything, so many extra little touches.
We were amazed when we arrived at this beautiful cottage. Christmas decorations were up and there was a Stollen to eat with our cup of tea - just what we needed. The cottage was very well equipped, the beds were comfortable and there were plenty of games and books to keep us occupied if it rained - but it didn't and we had a wonderful break. Enjoy!
We are a family of four with Henry the Cavalier King Charles we had a fab time at the Old Post Office, it was so well epuipped and lovely furnishings it felt like home from home! We would definitely recommend it to anyone who would like to bust North Wales.
It was very clean and had everything we needed there. The quality of fittings was excellent, the bed was super comfy and we slept really well. It is in striking distance of lots of places of interest and we didn't waste a day in exploring all the nearby attractions. All in all we loved our time there and would recommend it!
We are a family of four with Monty the dog! We stayed for a week in October the cottage couldn't have been more perfect! So many little extras and thoughtful touches. Would highly recommend and we would definitely stay again!
I can only agree with what other visitors have said. A great property, extremely clean, spacious and well equipped. Beautiful terraced gardens at the rear of the property. Within good travelling distance to Snowdonia, Betwys-y-Coed, Portmadog and only an hours drive to Anglesey.
Our stay at the old post office was exceptional. Spotlessly clean, fantastic facilities and a fantastic spot to visit the close towns of Harlech, Porthmadog and Barmouth. Outstanding scenery in the heart of snowdonia, the zip wire and underground trampolines that were 2 minutes down the road was an amazing bonus that kept our teenage kids occupied. Not to mention the extremely friendly and dog friendly pub a 30 second walk from the house to keep us occupied!! I cannot fault the facilities of the old post office and would certainly return there again. Thank you for having us.
Beutiful terraced gardens to relax in after a day of sightseeing.
This superb double fronted, semi-detached cottage is situated on the outskirts of the popular and historic slate mining town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, situated in the heart of the Snowdonia National Park, it provides a wonderful base for exploring the area for couples, friends or a family.
The Old Post Office has been lovingly refurbished and renovated to a high standard and is well maintained with exceptional presentation, and great attention to detail from the owners.
This wonderful cottage has a modern and fresh interior with stylish soft furnishings, tastefully decorated in neutral tones, with complimenting fabrics to add a touch of luxury.
A bay windowed sitting room boasts comfy sofas and a lovely fireplace housing a wood burning stove, perfect for those chilly evenings in front of the TV watching a favourite film from the selection of DVD's provided.
The beautiful kitchen has a wonderful peninsula island, granite worktops, double Belfast sink and a Kenwood gas cooking range; a great addition to an already well-equipped kitchen which will please the chef in your group.
The bay fronted dining area provides comfortable dining for all the family and fabulous views.
Three stylish bedrooms are upstairs, each offering something different.
The master bedroom has fantastic views towards the Moelwyn mountain range and benefits a king-size bed and en-suite shower room.
The double bedroom has garden access out onto the decked area, which enjoys a craggy backdrop and is a great place to enjoy an early morning cuppa.
Last but not least is a spacious twin-bedded room enjoying the same mountainous views.
A family bathroom completes this lovely holiday home.
Outside there is an area for bike storage, with a secure lock to keep bikes safe but it's the terraced garden and elevated decked seating area which makes this property rather special.
Here you can enjoy alfresco dining with some amazing views encompassing the Vale of Ffestiniog, the Moelwyn mountain range and Stwlan Dam.
The decked areas twinkle at night with an array of solar powered lighting making it a lovely place for a night cap, in the warmer weather.
Walks are in abundance from the cottage, which is also ideally placed for numerous cycling paths and trails.
Antur Stiniog's downhill mountain bike centre is less than a mile away and the largest mountain bike trail centre in Wales, Coed-y-Brenin, just a twenty minute drive.
The town centre is a fifteen minute walk from the cottage, offering a variety of shops, tea rooms, pubs, eateries and even a 50 seat cinema.
The famous Ffestiniog-Porthmadog Steam Railway starts its journey from the town centre, and for the more adventurous of you there is ZipWorld Titan (the largest zip zone in Europe), Zip Caverns and Bounce Below (deep mine zip wires and the largest underground system of trampolines in the world!).
The coastal towns of Harlech and Criccieth, with their medieval castles, wonderful sandy beaches and hidden coves, and the Italianate village and gardens of Portmeirion are all reached in just 30 minutes, as is Porthmadog and Betws-Y-Coed.
