Snaptrip says
Gwydn Lodge is consistently praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and well-equipped facilities. Guests appreciate the quiet, safe location and the added convenience of on-site amenities. The lodge's thoughtful touches, such as games and local information, contribute to a pleasant stay, despite minor feedback on privacy and an ant issue.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The lodge receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews highlighting its spotless condition. One mention of an ant problem slightly affects the score.
The location is well-regarded for being quiet and peaceful, with easy access to local attractions. Some concerns about the walk to the main park at night slightly lower the score.
Guests find the lodge comfortable, warm, and nicely furnished, contributing to a cosy stay. A single mention of sofas being too soft for some guests' preferences slightly reduces the score.
Facilities are generally described as excellent and well-maintained, with a fully equipped kitchen and entertainment options. Minor feedback on missing items and the need for nets in the main room for privacy slightly impacts the score.
While guests appreciate the provision of games, books, and local information, there is no mention of gifts, and therefore, it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness in terms of gifts. The score is set to null.

.. comfortable beds, numerous kitchen units and utensils and comfortable sofas, if a little too soft and low for our 80 year old backs. I can't comment on the facilities at the adjoining site as we didn't take advantage of these. Within just a short drive,or walk if you are able,of the coast and delightful pubs and restaurants... what more would you want ??
