Zig Zag Cottage

Zig Zag Cottage is thoroughly set up for self-catering: the kitchen has an electric oven, induction hob, microwave, dishwasher and fridge, so you can cook properly rather than make do. Electricity, Wi-Fi and bed linen come as standard. The four bedrooms sleep seven—two doubles, a twin and a single—with two bathrooms between them, plus a woodburner in the living room for cooler evenings. There's a rear garden with seating and furniture, and parking for three cars on site.

The cottage sits in countryside between Snowdonia's mountains and the Gwynedd coast, five miles from Dinas Dinlle beach. This location works for exploring castles, steam railways and walking routes, or as a base for golf, riding and fishing nearby. Caernarfon and its UNESCO castle are a 15-minute drive away; Anglesey is also within reach. One dog can stay free. The property is for families and friend groups only, and smoking is not permitted.
