Booked this to bring some friends from South Wales back home with me to North Wales to show them where I was brought up (not far from the Boathouse!). Had an amazing time, the property is fantastic (very remote but something I was used to growing up!). I cannot fault anything about the property and Bethan who looks after the property is amazing, so helpful and accomodating. Please book this you won't be dissapointed. We had two 9 year old girls with us and they didn't want to leave!

The property is just as it looks in the photos; very well decorated , clean ,furnished to high standard and with all mod cons. It is warm and the beds are comfortable. There is plenty of room for eight people. The lady who looks after the house was very helpful. We enjoyed our stay there.

The owner put a great deal of thought into the rebuild/conversion of this property, he has created a real home from home. The underfloor heating under the flag stone floor was a very clever idea and creates a warm pleasant atmosphere. The furnishings and household equipment are of very good quality. Travelling there by car is probably the best method, although for the most resourceful you could use the local train. The directions were easy to follow and we got there with no problems. The seclusion, scenery and peace and quiet really made this holiday wonderful. There is plenty to do in the local area, so we felt the Boathouse ideal for all aspects of a holiday. We will book again.

Its a great place to get away from things. The nearest house is 20 minutes walk through the woods. Though the station on the steam railway is a little closer about 15 minutes.
Plenty to do for a week in the locality. W ould be hard getting food without a car, so althought you can in theory get to the place by train (including the stream train), you'd want someone in your party to have brought a car I think.
Facilities in the house are very modern. We had no problems with the heating/electic/gas and water despite all being 'off-grid'. Fine selection of kitchen utensils.
Best thing about it is that it realy is out in the woods.

What a wonderful place, but of paradise in the wilderness! I had a meet up with some old school friends and we couldn't have chosen a better place, ideal for an explore of snowdonia or a relaxing break away from civilisation!
Highly recommended

What a wonderful place to stay, truly lovely. It's nice and quiet,next to a gorgeous lake surrounded by woodland, secluded, but not ridiculously far away from shops and tourist attractions, walks etc. The boathouse has been kitted out with good quality furniture, carpets, duvets, pots and pans etc I love that whoever kitted it out went for quality items as to me it makes a big difference makes it feel more luxurious, especially if you cant afford these items yourself! My only small issues if I'm being nit-picky was that the paperwork was a bit all over the shop we were expecting a welcome pack of some variety to introduce us to the area and explain how and what to recycle etc but the paperwork was all just bundled in a drawer and took us a while to organize it! Also I thought the linen charge was quite expensive (£21 to wash a duvet cover and a couple of towels) and would've been nice to have the bed made as I would do that for my guests just out of politeness but all of this we were made aware of from the beginning, so cant really complain. I wouldnt let any of this put you off though it is a gem, we will be stopping there again only next time we'll be staying much longer!
