Great place, perfectly clean, lovely views, very well equipped. Things which were better than other holiday homes we've stayed in: hand soap by all sinks; enough dishwashing tablets, washing up liquid and even laundry soap; knife sharpener!; loads of children's books; beach towels; hooks in shower rooms/bathroom.

I recently stayed at Clogwyn Lodge and had a truly memorable experience. The location is absolutely stunningnestled in the heart of Snowdonia, offering breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere thats perfect for a relaxing getaway or an adventure-filled trip. The lodge itself is very well maintained, clean, and thoughtfully equipped with everRead moreything you need for a comfortable stay. The rooms were cosy, the beds comfortable, and the common areas spacious and welcoming. It felt like a true home away from home. What stood out most was the attention to detail and the warm hospitality. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and clearly care about making guests feel welcome. Whether you're planning a hiking weekend or just want to unwind in nature, Clogwyn Lodge is an excellent choice. Highly recommended for families, couples, or groups looking to explore North Wales in comfort. Hide
