So why should you stay here with us?


Well we genuinely love what we do and are passionate about welcoming guests to our bed and breakfast, the village of Trefriw and North Wales.

When we started our journey here we wanted to create a destination that we would choose ourselves - relaxed, friendly, unpretentious and good value, yet have both an eye for detail and all the little luxuries you need for your short break or longer holiday in Wales.

You always remember the best places you’ve stayed in, don’t you!

So we looked back at the memorable accommodation that we have enjoyed around the world - and still enthuse about years later - and happily pinched ideas and inspiration from them all!!!

Just some of the wonderful people we’ve hosted from all over the world!

It is now great sharing our home with you and we try to make your stay with us as comfortable and effortless as possible, creating a “unique”, “stylish”, and “quirky” (not our words!) home from home.

Quite simply from the moment you walk through the door we want you to have the best time and a perfect stay whatever you plan to do here in fabulous Wales.

Guest reviews of our B&B in Eryri | Snowdonia, North Wales

If you want further inspiration you can also read some of the lovely comments left by previous guests on Free-to-book (our direct booking system), Booking.com, TripAdvisor and Google, about their time spent with us at Crafnant House.

This B&B is up there among the best... their attention to detail is second to none.

Stuart and Jasmine are clearly passionate about their beautiful house and have worked tirelessly to make it unique.

The decor is modern, quirky and interesting, without impacting on history and charm.

This is not just a bed for the night - it’s an experience; interesting hosts, spotless, comfortable rooms, comfy beds, incredible breakfast specials and great coffee - what more could you want?
— Jan, October 2024

Everything about the stay was thought about by the hosts, Jasmine and Stuart, and therefore it all felt effortless and easy for us to stay there.

The breakfast was delicious and could be adjusted to our tastes/needs (e.g. gluten free breakfast was no bother).

The artwork and furniture in the room and throughout the B&B are beautiful and intentionally placed, and there was quiet music playing in communal rooms, which made it feel cosy.

There were lots of little extras to borrow in the room and dotted about that you might need, but didn’t bring: tote bag in the wardrobe, umbrellas by the door, water bottle, etc.

Lots of ways in which they thought about what you might need before you even thought about it yourself.

Jasmine gave great recommendations for things to do during the day or where to eat.

We felt really welcome, our holiday was extra special for being here.
— Victoria, September 2024

Crafnant House was the perfect place for us, from the beautifully thought out decor and furnishings, to the central location, to the unbelievably delicious breakfasts.

The room and bathroom were very comfortable and tidied daily which was a treat.

The friendly and fun hosts really went out of their way to make our stay the best it could be. They gave us great advice on things to do in the area and provided pamphlets or written instructions for finding places.

They asked about our day and just generally enriched the whole experience. Truly amazing hosts.

Jasmine and Stuart, thank you for making this a home away from home and a very memorable stay for us!
— Natalie, August 2024

I recently had an amazing two night stay at Crafnant House, and it exceeded all my expectations.

From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality from the hosts, who made me feel right at home.

The house is beautifully maintained. My room was spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully decorated, offering a cosy ambience that made it easy to unwind after a long day of exploring.

The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the breakfast. The hosts’ attention to detail and commitment to using high-quality ingredients truly shone through. The daily special is a great touch. The homemade waffles with bacon were amazing!

The pubs in the village were also excellent for my evening meals.

Overall, my stay at Crafnant House was exceptional. The combination of comfortable accommodations, outstanding hospitality, and stunning surroundings made for an unforgettable experience.

I highly recommend Crafnant House to anyone visiting North Wales and look forward to my next visit.
— Jeremy, July 2024

Crafnant House, Jasmine & Stuart... all surpassed my expectations.

The house has been tastefully & pleasantly restored / decorated in a style befitting the property, the beds & rooms are more than comfy, small details everywhere add to making [the] stay so much better than many 4* hotels.

Towels, flannels, shower gel, shampoo, hand cream, hairdryers, water bottles for your walk, guides on where to go, where to eat, restaurant timings, menus & more, these are just a few things that I noticed and didn’t expect from a B&B.

Everything seems to be designed to ensure guests have everything they need, and the proprietors Jasmine & Stuart are so helpful, so welcoming.

They have a huge map on the wall with walks planned out and give super advice about where to go and when and even tell you what the weather will be where you are going (like asking Alexa, but much better).

This is an exceptional property, run by exceptional people, who genuinely make you believe that nothing would be too much trouble for them to help you with.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and would not hesitate about booking a return.
— Bob, June 2024

Crafnant House is a very beautiful and comfortable B&B, but what makes it outstanding is the warmth, hospitality and helpful nature of Jasmine & Stuart.

We were a group of five couples (four visiting from overseas) and everyone was touched and impressed by how kind, knowledgeable and friendly the hosts were.

Jasmine & Stuart planned breakfast specials that we’d like - which were yummy - and made us all feel so welcome.

To add to this, Bryn was charming!

Many thanks for sharing your lovely home with us!
— Nithya & John, May 2024

We’ve been raving about Crafnant House since we stayed a few years ago and had hoped to get back sooner.

We love everything about it, from its waggy-tailed welcoming committee to its delicious breakfasts and relaxing guest lounge. It’s just fabulous.

Can’t wait to come back.
— Caroline, April 2024

Jasmine and Stuart are excellent hosts and we had another marvellous stay at their lovely property.

We love the contemporary design touches and the building’s historic features.

We made good use of the lounges - and could happily spend weeks there working through the library!

Excellent breakfasts with good choices and local ingredients.
— Eric, March 2024

The stay at Crafnant House was simply amazing!

Jasmine was super helpful giving a lot of suggestions for places to visit and place to eat during our stay.

The rooms and the common spaces are simply stunning to be in, interior design at its best!

Stuart’s breakfast was superb!

Just do yourself a favour and stay here!
— Alessandra (Italy), September 2023

Crafnant House is in a gorgeous area of Snowdonia, but even if it wasn’t, we would still find a reason to stay here.

Stuart and Jasmine make you feel very welcome, the decor is incredible and we are still talking about the breakfasts!!
— Pip, August 2023

Honestly had such an amazing stay at Crafnant House.

Both Jasmine and Stuart were incredibly hospitable and gave us lots of fab recommendations and served us the yummiest breakfast (catering to our dietary needs) every morning.

We went in having a vague idea of what we wanted to do in North Wales but they were attentive and upleveled our itinerary offering us a unique staycation filled with hidden gems.

Would definitely recommend staying at their beautiful and unique B&B and we look forward to visiting again.
— Mohammed, August 2023

Our stay can only be summarised in one word - PERFECT!

Gorgeous location, impeccable food, service, accommodation and the B+B is easily the most interesting and quirky place we have ever stopped at.

I literally couldn’t speak highly enough about Stuart and Jasmine - already planning our return.

Thank you SO much guys! ❤️
— Dave, July 2023

If Jasmine and Stuart were managing a football team the FA cup would be in the bag!! Perhaps European and World Cups also?

Seriously. They make you feel that it is your home for the duration of your stay.

Beautiful location, pretty and intriguing garden, excellent food with chef specials daily!!

Can’t wait for our next visit.
— Ray, June 2023

The best B&B we’ve stayed at!

S&J were incredible hosts! We felt at home away from home within minutes of arriving.

The location was perfect to explore N Wales, from the coast all through the Snowdonia National Park.

S&J were extremely attentive and had excellent suggestions for us to explore from cute lunch spots to incredible less known waterfalls!

Breakfast was delicious too and they spoilt us with yummy treats in the room too.

Thanks for everything S&J! We’ll definitely be back xxx
— Panayiota, May 2023

Crafnant House is a beautiful and cosy place to stay. Rooms are stunning and comfortable.

Lovely to have breakfast in the front room and reading over the very handy guides in the snug was fantastic.

Have to say though that the hosts here are the best! So much care and thoughtfulness goes into everything they do.

We would not have had the wonderful experiences of Wales that we did without them.

Thank you both!
— Lisa (Australia), April 2023

Lovely decor, lovely hosts, lovely area!

Loved every moment of my stay here and really look forward to returning.

Can’t recommend it enough!
— Jamie, April 2023

Absolutely amazing stay at Crafnant House.

Exceptionally clean and well-decorated. Well-appointed with many features to ensure comfort and convenience.

Jasmine and Stuart are wonderful hosts… fun, great cooks, and very accommodating.

They went far beyond expectations in making reservations for us and in providing information and recommendations to make our stay completely satisfying.

They are clearly focused on creating an exceptional experience for their guests at a very reasonable price.

Clearly the best B&B experience we’ve ever had!
— Dennis (USA), October 2022

Crafnant House is the best B&B we have stayed in!

The decoration throughout is gorgeous, the bedrooms are delightful, the breakfast is delicious, the garden is beautiful and Jasmine and Stuart are the best hosts!
— Jessica, September 2022

Crafnant House is a wonderful and unique place.

Everything, including even the tiniest details, is so beautiful and simply perfect.

Jasmine and Stuart are such lovely people and they make you feel like staying with good old friends.

Thank you so much for making our visit unforgettable!
— Tobias (Germany), August 2022

From the moment you walk in the door you are made very welcome.

They have so much knowledge of the beautiful area, places to go and places to eat.

There are even two guest lounges for you to use which is great. The rooms are very clean, comfortable and have everything you need.

The beautiful garden outside is also a lovely place to use and chill out too.

The breakfast is really well cooked (local produce) and very tasty and sets you up for the day ahead.

We are already looking forward to our next stay.
— Joanne, August 2022

Crafnant House is by far the best B&B we have had the pleasure of staying at.

The attention to detail from Jasmine and Stuart is second to none, both in the style, decor and comfort of the house to the quality and quantity of the breakfasts.

The beds were so comfortable and the rooms were quirky and stylish.

All in all, amazing comfort, delicious breakfasts, a fantastic location and wonderful hosts makes Crafnant House a perfect 10/10!

Thank you for a lovely stay and see you again!
— Sarah, Eve, Gwen and Bev, August 2022

By far the best B&B we have ever stayed in.

Stuart and Jasmine couldn’t do enough for us. From hanging our wetsuits on the line after a swim to leaving the weather forecast for Snowdon outside our door the night before we climbed.

The breakfast was fantastic, the local yogurt is outstanding!

It’s clear that Stuart and Jasmine love their B&B and attention to detail is fantastic. There is so much we loved we can’t put it all down!

Location is great with a lovely pub next door and butchers over the road. There is a beautiful walk to a local lake that we highly recommend too.

We will be back and can’t recommend Crafnant House enough.
— Belinda, July 2022

Stuart and Jasmine were so welcoming and we felt like we were at home. We felt like we were part of the family and I’ve never felt like this before at a B&B!

Everything was absolute perfection and could not have asked for more. I’ve already tried to book again for later this year but the dates I’ve looked at are full!

No shock here, how we managed to get a space at this amazing B&B is beyond me!

Amazing!!!
— Chloe, June 2022

Our weekend at Crafnant House was the most perfect stay.

Jasmine and Stuart were exceptional hosts going way above and beyond to make our weekend extra special, suggestions for days out and places to eat and just all round lovely people.

The house itself was just beautiful, everywhere you looked there was something interesting to admire and the attention to detail in every single room was second to none.

The breakfast was the best I’ve ever had in a bed and breakfast, what a fabulous touch having a daily special.

We can’t wait to come back again. Thank you for the perfect stay.
— Josephine, May 2022

What a magical break away from the world!

Thank you Stuart, Jasmine and Bryn for welcoming us into your stylish, comfortable and cosy home and for taking such wonderful care of us!

From the belly laughs to the Bryn cuddles... to the excellent foodie recommendations and top tips for parking... to the seriously scrumptious breakfasts and the gorgeous bedrooms.

We’ll be back in a heartbeat and loved the area, the people and the spectacular scenery.
— Katrina, March 2022

Old fashioned standards of top quality, friendly service, cleanliness, and excellent food are NOT dead - they are alive and well and can be found at Crafnant House.

My weekend stay was superb with Jasmine and Stuart - I’m now looking for an excuse to go back.
— Joss, March 2022

We arrived for our stay at Crafnant House tired and in need of some serious R&R.

We were greeted by two of the most wonderfully welcoming hosts we have had the pleasure of meeting, who immediately made us feel at home.

The house itself while having retained all of it’s original charm and character has been transformed internally into a chic space with original touches everywhere you look, the color choices overwhelmingly calming and relaxing and the quality of everything chosen clear to see.

With every room one of a kind you can’t help but feel connected to your little space whilst your there and with all the lovely additional touches, information packs on things to do locally, water bottles to use during your stay, umbrella’s by the door, chilled fresh milk available, freshly baked gingerbread people each day and of course fabulous hosts there really is absolutely nothing not to love about this place!
— Jessica, October 2021

Best place I’ve stayed in for a long time!

Very friendly and helpful welcome, with good up-to-date info about where to eat, walk etc.

Great attention to detail, quickly making you feel at home, and some very nice little touches.

Comfortable room in beautiful Victorian house that Jasmine and Stuart have restored with very stylish modern decor and a real eye for colour and design, while still making the most of the period features.

Two different guest lounges, both very attractive. Spotlessly clean throughout and felt very Covid safe.

Superb breakfast each day, options include full cooked breakfast or a ‘special’ that’s different each day.

Clearly committed to sustainability and support for local businesses.

And last but not least, Bryn the Golden Retriever is lovely.

Need to go back!
— Anonymous, September 2021

We had a perfect stay, the house is beautiful, so clean, very comfy beds and lots of extra little touches provided by Jasmine and Stuart.

Breakfast was spot on with a daily special offered as an alternative to full breakfast.

Nothing was too much trouble and always greeted with a welcoming smile. After ordering Earl grey tea on our first morning , Earl grey appeared on our room beverages tray without asking 👍 - such personal attention made you feel a special guest .

Will most definitely return if in the area again and will recommend to family and friends. Thank you once again for making our short break.
— Veronica, July 2021

The breakfast was amazing. Our favourite was the pancakes!

The service from Jasmine and Stuart was incredible. They took the time to know our names, answered our questions and even took the initiative to provide us with the weather for our next day’s hike. Probably the most personable and hospitable experience we’ve ever had in any B&B or Hotel.

The home is beautiful with a lovely garden. Unfortunately we didn’t have the time to fully appreciate it. There’s some great guides the owner’s have drawn up of Wales. I would suggest anybody touring to make this place their first stop.

There are several great pubs with good quality food within a 5 minute walk from the house.
— Prashant, June 2021

First class attention to detail, from the warm welcome to the exquisite decor, comfortable clean rooms and sumptuous and tasty breakfast.

We had a perfect time and are planning a speedy return - thank you!
— John, May 2021

Spotlessly clean. Very comfortable. Luxurious decor.

The breakfasts were delicious 👌🏻

But most of all the owners were so so friendly and helpful, they really did go the extra mile.

I recommend this place very very highly and I’m extremely fussy.
— Claire, May 2021

We cannot wait to return to explore this incredibly scenic area of Wales and enjoy the hospitality of Stuart and Jasmine.

They have created a special place and clearly want to share their passion with guests.
— Tracey, April 2021

Nothing was too much effort for Stuart and Jasmine.

From the moment we walked through the door they were attentive, considerate and amazing hosts.

The B&B is decorated to an exceptional standard. The bed was comfy. It was spotlessly clean... they really have nailed this to the tee! Perfect!

Not mentioned the food yet.....wow! Incredible food. So tasty and again immaculate presentation.

We will 110% be back.
— Cherie, September 2020

Great hosts. Great breakfasts. Great location. What more do you need!
— Rob, September 2020

When you first enter Crafnant House you can see that a lot of care and attention has been given to create a beautifully decorated, well presented guest house.

The products left in the en-suite were very high end and smelt amazing.

Stuart and Jasmine are a wonderful couple who go out of their way to make sure that your stay is perfect, from providing a packed breakfast (the sausage patty in the roll was amazing) if you’re up and about early, helping to book restaurants for the evening and even posting back to us our ice walls which we’d left in their freezer.

Social distancing and hand sanitising is adhered to but never in an overbearing way, instead you’re left feeling safe and confident in your surroundings.

A great base for exploring the outstandingly beautiful area and I would definitely stay here again.
— Gwen, August 2020

Firstly, a big thank you to Stuart and Jasmine for everything. You have truly created a wonderful place to stay for people and go above and beyond. I felt looked after which is just what I needed.

Upon arrival Stuart was so friendly and welcoming, showed us around and to our rooms and went through the Covid rules which was reassuring.

The entire house was immaculate and our room had everything we could ever need. They really have thought of everything, we were totally impressed within minutes of being there.

As big foodies (as Jasmine learnt) the breakfast was a massive highlight for us and it was beautiful every morning. You had a choice of a traditional cooked breakfast, their special which changed every day, fruit, muffins and cereals. Thank you again guys for the breakfasts, so yummy.

In the lounges they have loads of leaflets and ‘to do’ guides so you’ll never be stuck on what to do.

Their garden backs onto a pub where we had dinner one night, again beautiful.

I can’t fault this place, you guys have nailed it.
— Jade, August 2020

This place is one of our all-time favourite stays. Excellent location with hikes starting just outside the door, beautiful decor, comfortable rooms, exceptional food and drinks.

This is all before we even mention Stuart and Jasmine. They are incredibly friendly, full of local knowledge, passionate about their lovely place and ready to go out of their way for their guests. Nothing is too much trouble and it’s been an absolute pleasure meeting them and their lovely dog Bryn.

Everything about Crafnant House was perfect. We are already trying to pencil in our next stay. You should too.
— Alexei, August 2020

Wonderful, warm and welcoming. Stuart and Jasmine are wonderful hosts; kind, helpful, warm and welcoming.

Thoughtful touches such as gingerbread men, homemade bread and journey treats just add to an already wonderful experience.

The lounges are cosy and the books and board games on offer mean that even on a wet drizzly evening there is still something to do. We will definitely be returning in the near future.
— Catherine, July 2020

Best week, at the best B&B, with the best hosts.

The B&B is absolutely beautiful, inside and out. Stuart and Jasmine are the perfect hosts providing lots of local knowledge, plenty of facilities on site, and go above and beyond with their breakfasts! They catered to our vegan requirements throughout our entire stay.

I can’t wait to return, which I definitely will, later this year. Genuinely the best B&B I’ve ever stayed in
— Elliot, April 2020

Liked absolutely everything. The friendliest of hosts.... including the beautiful dog Bryn. Food was great and the rooms are fantastic.

Don’t even think about it and book it. You won’t regret it. Everything was perfect.
— Michael, March 2020

An excellent stay with lovely hosts.

The food was brilliant, the room was very comfortable, we had everything we could possibly want and more.

There were lots of lovely touches and Stuart and Jasmine were excellent hosts with lots of printed information and great advice.

Lots of nice walks from the B&B with pubs nearby.

Good access to Snowdon, Conwy etc.

All round, a fantastic visit.
— Michael, October 2019

Fantastic B&B that can only be described as 5*. Attention to detail is second to none. Spotlessly clean, breakfast excellent, hosts both fantastic.
— Christopher, October 2019

Was the icing on the cake for a memorable visit to Snowdonia.

The warm, friendly and generous welcome by hosts Stuart and Jasmine was a treat at the end of a long journey.

The accommodation was cosy and comfortable, sprinkled with unique items which made the stay more memorable. The breakfasts were a delight, and perfectly portioned. Crafnant House was an ideal place to be based for and enhanced a visit to the Snowdonia National Park.

Highly recommended for anyone planning a visit to North Wales and in particular, Snowdonia.
— Daniel, September 2019

Great place to stay. Stuart and Jasmine are two of the nicest most welcoming people you could wish to meet.

The property is decorated to a really high standard with a guest lounge on two floors. The food is excellent and always little cakes available at all times.

Have to say it’s just about the best B&B we’ve ever stayed at.
— Gary, September 2019

Simply amazing. And thank you. I couldn’t fault the stay.

Every single element of our stay was thought out beautifully by our hosts.

We couldn’t have hoped for more, and didn’t actually want to leave!!!!!!

Needless to say we will be back at some point in the very near future.
— Zoie, September 2019

First class, highly recommended.

The hosts were very welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us.

Their knowledge of the local area was invaluable.

The additional little touches like home made ginger bread men in our room were very welcome.
— Mark, September 2019

Pretty much the perfect B&B!

The very friendly and helpful owners seem to have thought about all the things that make for a comfortable stay. So nice to have fresh milk, home baking and delicious, unusual breakfast options.

Lovely walks from the property and a pub with good food next door meant we didn’t even use the car once we were there.
— Anonymous, August 2019

Stuart & Jasmine are the perfect hosts at Crafnant House.

Their attention to detail, knowledge of the local area/activities and welcome is fantastic.

Their home is stylish and comfortable with two guest lounges available. Great little touches such as homemade biscuits in the room and cake in the breakfast room if you’re ever peckish.

A different ‘special’ is offered for breakfast each day and on the morning that we had an early start a breakfast was prepared for us in a coolbag ‘to go’ - nothing is too much trouble.

Food at the pub next door was excellent with an extensive gin and whisky selection!

We will definitely return to Crafnant House.
— Siwan, July 2019

Outstanding B&B full of extra little touches.

Stuart and Jasmine have thought very carefully about the B&B they offer. The whole package was full of little touches such as homemade biscuits in the room, a daily special for breakfast, water bottles to use during your stay, advice on the local area etc etc.

Nothing was left out and the relationship was relaxed and very friendly throughout.
— Richard, June 2019

Fabulous 😃

The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. This was my second visit and the whole experience was just as good as the first time if not better.

I will definitely be back again, hopefully in the next couple of months.

The property was immaculate and the owners went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and pleasant, lovely couple 😊
— Diljit, May 2019
