Steven
Super cosy living room with comfy sofa and a gorgeous log burner, big kitchen diner with everything you need. 2 very relaxing bedrooms. The bathroom is stunning! Hot tub is wonderful, and surprisingly private for a terraced property with a small garden. Welcome pack of crisps & Prosecco gratefully received. Thereâs a handy information folder and plenty of literature to read about the local area/attractions. Itâs a good quiet central location for exploring snowdonia, the llyn peninsula and Anglesey. The only potential stumbling block is the parking, itâs extremely tight and youâll need to be a proficient parallel parker! If you have more than one vehicle like we did or a particularly large car then you could struggle. Having said that, we managed but itâs certainly something to consider. All in all itâs a really great cottage!

We was really looking forward to this stay as the cottage looked lovely & it was! No complaints apart from the hot tubâ¦..we had issues with it on all 3 nights of our stay & logged this with the owners on all 3 nights! The jets had an auto cut off after 30mins which is fine but every time we pressed them back on after the initial 30mins they would only stay on for literally 1min at a time! This was very annoying as we couldnât just lie back & relax! After complaining the 2nd night the owners said theyâd send someone round to look at it, they didnât! Having paid a premium rate for a place with a hot tub & only getting 30mins per night really isnât good enough! Having complained on our arrival home again about this, we have basically been told that since our departure the hot tub has been checked & no issues found & therefore they will not refund us any money! We have basically been made out to be liars! £400 down the drain! Very frustrating, annoying & disappointing to say the least!!

Extremely clean. Everything catered for. The neighbours were very friendly on both sides. Parking is on the quiet lane directly outside the cottage with plenty of space available. Beautiful views from the loft bedroom overlooking fields and sheep to the back and far reaching views to the front. Beautifully quiet and we had a fabulous holiday. Thank you.
