The cottage was very well appointed, especially in the kitchen. Everything was clean and well positioned. Biscuits and milk were provided, nice touch. The cottage was set within the owner's very large garden which we were welcome to use. Lockable space for bike storage. Plenty of brochures showing the touristy things to do in the area. The cottage was 1 mile North of Criccieth with access to the Wales coastal path. Larger Porthmadog was just a few miles down the road. We shall definitely return to Gell Cottage in the future.

Great location for exploring the area. Stunning cottage in a lovely setting. Immaculate throughout. Everything you could possibly need,so well equipped. Warm and cosy which was very welcoming as it was November.. The goodies and flowers on arrival were a lovely gesture.

We have been to Gell cottage many times and would recommend it. The cottage is spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable and centrally placed for many interesting places.Large supermarkets and gift shops are only a few miles away. Perfect cosy retreat.
