"We liked the fact that the accommodation was a converted milking shed, it added to the quirkiness of the property, making it unique. The position of the accommodation was just what we were after, giving us the feel of the area; away from the maddening crowds!! However, it was near enough to explore Snowdonia National Park and the cities of Liverpool, Manchester and Chester if we wished to."
