    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Karen - Verified booking

      Wow! This cottage is so beautiful!

      It feels so welcoming and friendly. The views are outstanding. I stayed with friends and we all fell I love with Ffynnon Gower. It was a long weekend and we agreed we wanted to stay much longer! The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need and Nora had even left some treats for us (and milk!) for that all important first cup of tea when you arrive. Dylan keeps the gardens immaculate and the trees and flowers are a delight. The back garden is a great size and if you jave children would be fab for them to run around. We did find the mattresses a bit firm, but that's just personal preference. As a group of friends it was great to have an extra downstairs loo. I needed a venue to run a handfasting 'commitment' ceremony for friends from the US who fell in love at Bala. We asked the owners, who were so kind and obliging, so our friends had the stunning backdrop of Bala Lake - it was magical! Book Ffynnon Gower - you won't be disappointed! Can't wait to stay again. The doors locked firmly so we felt secure as women friends staying there. The road from Bala does go single track in places but plenty of passing places - just drive sensibly - it isn't bad at all and only a short driveway from the road to the cottage. P.s. King Arthur's Labyrinth in Machynlleth is about 40 mins away and an incredible tourist attraction with lots of craft shops.

    • Mrs Laker - Verified booking

      We honestly can't praise this perfect little holiday cottage enough. It was spotlessly clean, with a fresh modern decor. There were lovely welcoming touches-like some fresh flowers, Welsh cakes (which honestly lasted about 5 minutes after our 5 and a half hour drive) and a packet of waffles. We met Manon and her parents in law, who were all so friendly and sweet. They have a great knowledge of the area too. The cottage has everything we needed-a well equipped kitchen (with a dishwasher and washing machine, cleaning products and tea, coffee and a pint of milk), a comfortable living area and bedroom and a modern bathroom. The shower was really good too. Parking outside is ample and you can see your vehicle from the property. The cottage is well placed. Literally less than 5 minutes walk to Bala town centre and within easy reach of lots of attractions. We would definitely recommend this cottage and hope to return one day.

    • Elizabeth - Verified booking

      As the Lake view is stunning it would be very hard not to tick the location box.

      It is a couple of miles drive down a narrow windy path so you aren’t walking into Bala in a hurry )not that we expected to). I found that the cottage is far bigger than it looks in the pictures and actually the images don’t do it justice. It’s a beautiful holiday home. We stayed with our two children aged 6 and 3 and they enjoyed running around the garden and walking up the field/ hillside over the back to see the sheep. Maybe the addition of a cheeky swing or slide in the garden to the side would attract those with kids as that’s something I’d usually look for, but I’m sure Nora and Dylan don’t struggle with bookings. We would stay here again. The owner Dylan was very pleasant when we met him to exchange keys. The 9am departure was tricky with the kids but understandable given the current climate. A stunning break with lots of wildlife especially birds of prey to be spotted on your back yard!

    • Daphne - Verified booking

      The security off the property was a joke, the doorknob was unstable the bedroom window wouldn't close & was broken.

      We didn't feel safe and we didn't feel our property was secure. The kitchen wasn't clean I had to wash the crockery & cutlery we wanted to use a serving spoon had marmalade on it! The patio was cordoned off & had grass & corn 2 feet high growing in it. The back of the property which had an outhouse with a door that had a gap between door frame & door. There was a downstairs toilet in the outhouse which wasn't very good & the sink was all brown which wasn't very pleasant. The area in front of the back door was all cracked & broken. The back of the property was not shown on any photos on the Sykes website because if it had we would never have booked it. All in all the property appeared to be rundown & neglected. If my husband could have driven home again we would not have stayed one night. We are pensioners who save all year for our holiday & we feel really upset and disappointed.

    • Sarah - Verified booking

      The pictures on the internet really do not do this property justice.

      The views are amazing. The property was a lot larger than we expected. The drying room/downstairs toilet/store was an absolute godsend. It is mentioned on the website but only as a passing comment - it’s the full length of the back of the property. The only thing we could suggest is the picnic table outside could do with being replaced as it’s getting a bit old and rickety. The location is remote with no other properties around about and no shops/pubs in walking distance but this suited us down to the ground. Plenty of places to visit in the area. Nice warm welcome from Dylan the owner and then we were left to enjoy our stay. We paid a lot more for this cottage than we would usually due to covid tax which annoyed me greatly when I booked it but we’ve had a fantastic holiday and made some more fab family memories.
