The Grooms Cottage is an excellent location for Caernarfon and Northern Wales excursions, only 5 minutes to Mt. Snowden Railway. The host was very kind, had a lovely welcome note with helpful instructions, and complimentary tea/biscuit service upon arrival. We are animal lovers, so after we politely requested, William introduced us to the farm's four-legged residents who were beyond charming! (Frankly, we fell in love with the place). This was an exquisite opportunity to learn about the farm, its history, and its unique role in sustaining rare breeds. The cottage itself was spacious, well appointed, very comfortable, clean and organized. The washing machine in the cottage was a convenient amenity, as was the kitchen. Our host even recommended an excellent spot to eat in town!

The Grooms Cottage at Penrhyn Stud Farm… A two story, stone built characterful cottage located in the heart of a picturesque farm setting. Recently renovated to a very high standard, the cottage comfortably sleeps up to 4x people, split between a king size bed upstairs and a luxury king size sofa bed downstairs. The farm is nestled on the banks of the River Seiont on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park, based only 9 minutes and 4 miles from Llanberis and the various paths up Snowdon. We are ideally located with easy access to local beaches and nearby attractions including Zip World, Adventure Park Snowdonia and Betws-Y-Coed to name a few. Enjoy a stay in peaceful surroundings with views of our wonderful animals. Our semi-rural location provides great access for walking, cycling and even fishing with day passes available upon request! For more information on our unique property please visit our Facebook: @PenrhynStudFarm
We are based in a semi-rural location on the outskirts of Llanrug village but surrounded by wonderful countryside and rivers. We are close enough though to pop to the shops! Llanrug boasts an amazing local butcher as well as a very well stocked Co-Op which will cater for the majority of your needs during your stay.
