A special place
By Leanor Barraclough on 12-Jun-2025This is a special place. It is as beautiful as it looks in the photos. You will be staying in a place that has a massive amount of art and family history on the walls and you will feel that parts of the house at least are a trip back in time. You could bump your head on an ancient beam but it’s worth it. Garden is lovely. You are out in the countryside but two really nice small towns or large villages are a couple of miles away in either direction. You don’t need to plan trips to tourist destinations, you’re in one. Everybody’s friendly. Jack is great and prompt on messages and you’ll meet Michelle who is super-helpful. Local farmer Huw is a sheepdog trainer and fantastic bonus.
It is correct to be called outstanding
By Andry on 12-Dec-2023An old house with a history, romantic. from the kitchen window there is a view of the terrace and mountain, it is very pleasant to cook there to drink coffee and watch. It is correct to be called outstanding! If you are a romantic and want to spend an unforgettable weekend with friends or family who loves history and nature, it is wonderful. In the summer, enjoying the terrace, the sky and birds around - perfect. Thank you for letting us stay.
17 years since we first came to this amazing house
By Chris Meyer on 19-Jul-2024Another lovely stay at Carregfelen. 17 years since we first came to this amazing house and it never fails to impress. Kerry was brilliant and we will no doubt be back again as it really is now part of our family.
Utterly beautiful setting, terrace and estate
By Charlotte Marsden on 16-Aug-2024Our big family party had the most wonderful week at Carregfelen. Utterly beautiful setting, terrace and estate, fascinating house full of beautiful things and surrounded by all the magic of Eryri and the coast for climbing, swimming and surfing. Recommend heartily!
