Glyndwr in Betws-Y-Coed | Must-See Gwynedd Hot Tub Cottage

About Glyndwr

Glyndwr Bach is a compact one-bedroom lodge in Betws-y-Coed, North Wales. This small but perfectly formed holiday home sits amidst the stunning scenery of Eryri National Park. Just a 10-minute stroll from Betws-y-Coed village and its amenities, this property offers the perfect balance between seclusion and convenience.

The area is a walker's paradise with Gwydir Forest Park on your doorstep. Fancy something more adrenaline-fueled? Zip World Fforest is nearby for those who like their holidays with a side of screaming. After a day exploring the mountains (or screaming your head off), you can soak in your private hot tub - nothing beats a good outdoor soak with a favourite drink. Unless you're teetotal, in which case... still pretty good.

The accommodation features an open-plan living space with underfloor heating (your feet will thank you), a well-equipped kitchen with electric hob, microwave, fridge and washing machine. The mezzanine double bedroom is accessed via a spiral staircase, with a ground-floor shower room featuring a walk-in shower. Modern finishes and thoughtful design make excellent use of the space.

Local attractions include Swallow Falls Waterfall (2 miles, 5-minute drive), Conwy Valley Railway Museum (0.5 miles, 10-minute walk) and Yr Wyddfa (Mount Snowdon) just a short drive away. The village itself offers shops, pubs and restaurants all within walking distance.

Glyndwr Bach is ideal for couples seeking a romantic getaway or adventurers needing a comfortable base. Small but mighty, this lodge packs everything you need into a stylish package.

Popular Stays Near This Cottage

Glyndwr Reviews

Great comms from the property owner. Comfortable and clean accommodation with everything that we needed. Lovely area with so much to do. 10 minute walk to the centre of Betws y Coed where there are several bars and restaurants well worth visiting! Highly recommended.

We had a lovely stay at Glyndwr, perfect location for exploring, a 15 minute walk into Betws Y Coed with some great pubs and food spots! Very serene enjoying the hot tub on an evening seeing loads of stars on a clear night! Highly recommend, we will be back next time we come to Wales!

Lovely property very clean, warm and comfortable. Although we were aware there was no oven, we did miss it a basic airfryer would be a welcome addition. Otherwise all good would definitely recommend and would definitely return. We loved the hot tub after a day in the hills.

Christine

Cosy cottage, everything you need, short walk to village and hot tub great after walking the lovely area. Will be back.

A lovely stay in the beautiful village of Betws ycoed. A 10 minute stroll will take you to many pubs and restaurants. We so enjoyed many walks in the local area and enjoyed the hot tub on our return to the cottage. Thank you.

Had a lovely week stay. Was nice and peaceful spot, ideal for a base to go from. Would recommend

A perfect little place to stay! Great as a base for exploring the local area, lots of stunning places to find. The cottage was great for our needs, extremely clean and tidy! The hot tub was fabulous at the end of a day's walking!

William

Had we realised that no hair dryer or cafetire were provided we could have brought those. As it was the listing had not given details so we ended up without either. It was also a shame that there was only a single toilet roll. Otherwise this was a very clean and comfortable property. The upstairs could prove a problem for tall people as the sloping ceiling does not give a lot of headroom at the top of the stairs or either side of the bed.

Had such an amazing time at Glyndwr Bach. We only saw one of the hosts, but he was so kind and accommodating. The place was clean and cosy, we especially loved the under floor heating on the ground floor. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, please be mindful kitchen doesn't have an oven but you could always bring a small airfryer there is space on work surface. We looked up microwave instructions online and it does have cooking functions. Glyndwr Bach was very clean only thing we noticed was some slight moldstaining in bathroom fan but otherwise very clean. The area is lovely we enjoyed walking into Betwsycoed in the evenings for dinner and we went on several walks around the surrounding area which are well maintained. A short drive to Yr Wyddfa, location is really perfect. It's worth stocking up on essentials before you arrive as local SparLondis are expensive and fairly limited as only small shops. We went to an Aldi on the A38 about 55 minutes away on the way in. We are so sorry about the dragon and for taking awhile to review.

Perfect little getaway property.

Christopher

Loved the place spiral staircase and hot tub had it for me when we booked but when we got to the place the accommodation was beautiful as for the village cosy wee shops places to eat and for it's Ace in the hole beautiful scenic surroundings with waterfall rapids you can see below from a bridge that crosses into the village. As for the couple of this fine property extremely helpful filled hot tub every day and if ever was needing help with property or advice on things to do locally someone was always there Would definitely come back again than you.

Lovely little cottage in a fantastic location. Just about big enough for two of us and our hiking gear. 10 minute walk into BetwsyCoed with great shops, pubs and restaurants. 10 minute drive to the Mountains. Perfect for a weekend in the hills.

Lovely place, very clean, had everything we needed. Near pubs and restaurants for the evenings. Would recommend.

We found this the perfect location for us not too far from places we wanted to visit and Betwsy d coed is a beautiful little village with some lovely eateries. Wales is quite expensive for eating out but its choice as you can eat in if you want to cook your own food. A really nice touch with the welcome hamper left for us. My partner is 6 foot tall and banged his quite often on the bedroom ceiling and staircase so be careful. It gave me a few laughs. We loved the hot tub but it can be a problem with midges around the water. My partner got bitten really badly and looked like he had measles. Would be a good idea to tell guests to bring insect repellent or even provide this. The bed was very noisy when turning over in the night due to loose bolts at the bottom. And the bathroom door was very squeeky which could do with sorting. Could do with another toilet roll leaving as two for a week isn't really enough. However these minor things would not stop us staying again, they are just an honest review of our time here. Lovely place thankyou Lucy and Gari

Elizabeth

Lovely stay, lovely setting, lovey little touch with the welcome basket. The property is cosy but was ideal size for our few days away and a great location for the beautiful village of betws y coed. Comfy and clean, we do prefer a bigger bed but it was comfy enough. Plus the hot tub is a bonus and helped the muscles in between hikes. Facilities are good, only thing to suggest would be a shelf in the bathroom for wash bags and a hairdryer.

Olivia

The place is very clean and comfortable and provided a very homely feel during our stay.

Kirsty

We had such an amazing stay at the cottage! !! We didnt get to meet the owners but also it was nice that we didnt really speak to many people as busy parents just needed a break! Beautiful accommodation and the hot tub was an added bonus after the mountain climb! Food places we found were all delicious and really would love to come back with our children at some point, if only this accommodation had a second bedroom! Thanks so much for our retreat

Excellent stay at a gorgeous property. Thank you.

We absolutely loved the property it was so clean and smart, its set in such a great place with easy access to the mountain ranges and Betys y Coed centre a short walk away. Its the first time my wife and me have been away together in over 13 years so having such a great place to stay was the icing on the cake. We will be back as soon as we can get the time and this time for longer. Huge praise to the owners for creating such a great holiday let.

Amazing and well kept cosy cottage! Owners are very friendly and welcoming! Perfect location just a short walk from the village. Will definitely be staying again!!

Amazing place to stay. It is beautifully presented, the building and the furnishings are top notch and everything was extremely clean and tidy. The hosts were absolutely lovely, very friendly and helpful and although they live next door full privacy was maintained during our visit. The hot tub was a bonus and well maintained throughout our stay. Highly recommended, a 5 property. We hope to return one day. Thank you Gary & Luci

Perfect. Just what we needed! Accommodation was very modern and finished to a high standard. Very clean throughout. We were welcomed upon arrival and received a thoughtful welcome pack. Peaceful and quiet with pubs, shops, and places to eat within a 15 minute walk away. Great location to explore North Wales, highly recommend. 5

Michael

Lovely cottage, nice location easy walk to village. Had everything we needed for our stay. Private hot tub was very nice. Very comfy and clean, owners have paid attention to detail and are welcoming, would definitely stay again.
