Bryn Hideaway is clean, well equipped, tastefully decorated and ideally located for accessing the great Welsh outdoors. If booking during winter months, be prepared to rely on lighting the large wood burning stove to provide sufficient heat for a cozy temperature indoors during your stay.

Lovely little cottage in a great area for exploring, all in-house amenities provided for a comfortable stay. Can't fault the place really, Tesco express only 5 mins in the car and the retail park in Bangor is only 15/20 mins away which has everything you need in one place. Great communication with the management team as well.
