"Ideal property for a couple not too far from Pwllheli but a car is essential. Car parking outside cottage a bonus but could do with weeding... too many thistles.Rear patio area could also do with tidying up. Enjoyed feeding the birds... and sat a few evenings watching them.Nice bottle of wine waiting in fridge. Bed very comfortable and had good nights sleep but too big for the room...catch legs when you go round to the other side. Many a stubbed toe!!!!The bathroom.... sink far too big for the small space and the shower door doesn't open up enough to allow easy entry... a larger busted lady as I am... bruised myself badly getting in and out... really does need redesigning.Also think there's a problem with the plumbing from the kitchen sink as when my hubby was having a shower and I had washed the pots the waste water came into shower cubicle up from the plug hole.Overall Penlon is placed to visit many places on the Llyn Peninsula in an ideal spot and should we travel to Wales again would consider a return visit."

"Lovely barn on a working farm. Very isolated from the main road, off a long track which was very bumpy and muddy. The owners were lovely and left us to it. The local town of Crymych is pleasant but is definitely driveable, we didn't try out the pubs but there were a few shops and takeaways. The barn is in a lovely rural location overlooking some beautiful hills but you can't see them from the barn because the barn windows face a wall which is about 1.5m away so we felt quite enclosed. The windows you can see in the main picture face the driveway and face the owners house. If there was one window put in the main gable wall in the kitchen this would offer a lot more light and great views, wouldn't be too costly either. Overall a nice stay but the location was a bit awkward."

"A compact cottage. In good order and well cleaned. It was good value and can't really fault it.There is actually a sofa bed in the lounge, not sure if that is mentioned in the detail. But the cottage is really only for a couple.The parking is a little restricted and some might find it awkward, though we were fine with it.The bathroom might be a challenge for those of a larger size, but it was nice to see a good heater in there. The heating generally is storage heaters and was fine also.It could do with a descent frying pan, rather than a Home Bargains special that was warped.Perhaps a dedicated row of hooks for coats in the living area."

"Beautiful cottage, equipped with everything we could have needed, including dog bowls! Owners are lovely and friendly while also leaving you to your own devices and not being overbearing. Lovely quiet countryside. Do not book if you want hustle and bustle. Only downside was due to bank holiday not all shops open in Aberaeron, but this is not down to the property owners! Local amenities all in Aberaeron. Costcutter shop about the biggest supermarket nearby so limited selection but there are plenty of restaurants etc. All in all a lovely relaxing weekend in beautiful surroundings."

"Thistles is the ultimate dog friendly holiday cottage. It is well equipped & thoughtfully laid out, with a pretty & secure, private garden. The owners live next door & are friendly & helpful. The welcome package, including gorgeous homemade gooseberry cake for us & a treat for our dog, was a really nice touch. The cottage's location is central to access both south & north Pembrokeshire, & it's only a few miles away from some beautiful National Trust coastline like Broad Haven South & Barafundle Bay. We had a wonderful week & would definitely stay again."
