Aloe house Snowdon accommodation

MicalaeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We absolutely loved our stay at Aloe House! As nature lovers, we could have spent the entire day just soaking in the breathtaking mountain views — truly picture-perfect. The house felt like a home away from home, and being able to bring our dog along was a huge bonus. She had the best time exploring the property with us, and the secure fencing gave us complete peace of mind. The house itself was cozy yet spacious, and waking up to those stunning mountain views from the bedrooms was such a treat. Aloe House has quickly become one of our favourite getaways! Thank you to the incredible hosts!

This cozy and spacious hut features a unique and architecturally interesting design. The hut is very complete and everything one needs to have a good tine in the nature. Hans and Dalene sincerely hope you have fun and discover what inspired them to move to this beautiful, picturesque spot. We made a cosy campfire, did a great hike and left satisfied and with a memorable experience.
