Beach Cottages in Llandudno

What our customers say about their holidays

• Danielle - Verified booking

  We had a great holiday in Llandudno staying here as a large group, ranging from aged 8 to over 80 years old.

  The house is clean and well decorated, with nice linen and towels, comfortable beds and lovely bathrooms. It also has a cosy living room with a bright, well equipped kitchen. The games room and courtyard garden were really appreciated too. It was good having a space for the older children/teens to enjoy and the pool table and air hockey were popular. In the house, there are a few toys and games available for children. Having a few books for people to read was a nice touch as well. Not all the tv remotes in bedrooms worked but we were too busy getting out and about so it was not an issue. Parking on the same road and surrounding streets was easy to secure though it wasn’t always possible to get directly outside. The owners could be more reassuring in their response when asked about this ahead of arrival. In terms of accessibility for those with disabilities, the listing needs an update. The hoists have been removed and there isn’t a ground floor sleeping space. This room is now a pretty dining room. The ground floor accessible bathroom that is off the dining room has also been altered. It is a large open wet room shower without any supports in the shower area and no easy reach place to put toiletries. The floor can be quite slippery so you need to take care in that area in the absence of support. There are toilet rails which are helpful. The shower would benefit from some handrails, a non- slip mat, a shower seat or bench and a shelf/stand for toiletries. This would help those with restricted mobility or who are vulnerable to falls. The first floor shower tray is also slippery, so I would recommend use of a non-slip mat there too (not provided). All the bedrooms are now accessed by stairs, with a few stairs to and from the bathroom/loo used by those sleeping in first floor rooms. One member of our party was elderly and needs help to mobilise and another unfortunately had a broken leg. We could navigate stairs with crutches/adjustments and took our own shower seat thankfully, else it would have been a challenge to manage. Furniture would need to be moved in the front room to make that more accessible as the gap between sofas is small. Most houses we have stayed in provide a small welcome pack, with tea/coffee/sugar/milk to use on arrival to make a drink. Usually there is a snack too (biscuits or cake). This time, there wasn’t anything for us but the local shops and M&S with a food hall and Asda are very close by so we managed to get sorted quickly. The personal touch is missing for the welcome to this house but the location, space and general amenities were great. With support from family, we were able to adapt to accommodate the needs of our party and make the best of the house. We would definitely return with knowledge of how to safely make adjustments for those who need help.

  The house is generally o.

  K but shows typical signs that the owners never stay there themselves. Our biggest problem was the TV. it has no freeview channels, only Netflix & NOWtv all provided by a feeble phoneline internet connection which randomly loses connection. We were there for the Queens funeral, a once in a lifetime event the like of which the modern world has never seen and the only way we could watch was on Sky news. So what happened?? it lost connection worse than ever and we missed large parts of it and were very angry indeed. Added to that is my husband is rather deaf and needs subtitles to watch anything and NOWtv has practically non, Netflix has all subtitled but only shows films etc. We did notice there is a rooftop freeview aerial socket by the window but the TV is nowhere near as the room is furnished back to front with having to steer round furniture with plates of food to get to the table by the window! Regarding the house, if we hadn't been so annoyed by the TV I would let the following go without mentioning that although the shower is very nice there is nowhere to put your items other than a caddy we found hung high up on top of the glass screen so you end up putting it on the floor. Also the bathroom has hooks hung on top of the door so high up (6ft) I couldn't even reach! Self adhesive hooks are easily fitted! Kitchen has no drawers or upper wall cupboards so cutlery is in a wire tray on the worktop. The dining table has really heavy clunky chairs that don't belong with it and wont push under side by side so they end up blocking the end of the room!

  I have informed the Manager of the property about a few things which needed attending to and some suggestions.

  But I can repeat some of them here.. I suggested giving a bit more clarity in the directions to the property, so include the name of the road which leads to the property. I decided to walk up at the end as the road was so steep, as I wasn't sure where the property was, & didn't want to be stuck trying to turn round..! Another suggestion was to leave a dishcloth, especially to wipe up the water which stays behind the kitchen taps, so can effect the wood surface. We were glad we had brought one with us! The floorboards in the bathroom are very creaky, so I asked if this could be adjusted at all.. Also it is much easier to get out of the car space at the back, so I recommended suggesting that rather than at the front. But maybe I made the mistake of reversing in, as I noticed the neighbours had..! The many ornaments are lovely, but we weren't sure whether we could use one of the small jugs on the coffee table.. And they did take up quite a big space. (Just an observation and don't mean to be picky..) It may be good to mention there's a blind in the double bed room, so people don't try to unravel the lovely curtains?.. But there are so many things to thank you for - such as the radio, the compact kitchen diner with all we needed & kindly leaving milk and Welsh cakes. Plus such clear information in the pack left. We had never been up there before so it was a delight, with amazing views!..

  We really enjoyed our stay here.

  Lovely, clean and homely. Great location. The welcome basket was a lovely addition to have. Everything you needed for a kitchen were there (including tea, coffee and sugar. Did bring our own as we didn't know they'd be included) Nice view from the kitchen window too. Spacious living/dining room. Perfect size for a family of 6. Dining table chairs were a little awkward to get out, ok if all 6 chairs weren't needed, but 6 of us were staying and they were fiddly to get out. The internet wasn't great when it came to using the TV, it would randomly disconnect, but we weren't watching it that much, so wasn't an issue for us, might be for others. Great size main bedroom. We did find the mattresses in the main bedroom and the twin room were too firm for our liking, but the kids loved the bunk beds. Storage space was great to put clothes our clothes away (hung up or in drawers) Was nice to have a night light on the landing for our two children to have on at night time. Shower was spacious and had room to put some toiletries on the shower rack. Heating was easy to use and heats up the rooms very quickly so we didn't need to have it on for long. Nice little front garden, with picnic bench and fencing to make it more private. We will definitely be wanting to stay again and recommend to others.

  This is a great house for a family gathering.

  The property is really well located, no need to use the car for Asda or M&S. The railway station is at the end of the street and you are in the centre of town in 5 minutes. Despite that the street is quiet and we had no problems with parking. The property is a large period terrace which is tastefully and freshly decorated, and comfortable. The kitchen is roomy and well equipped with a small fridge plus a large American style fridge freezer which was great for a big family. The games room is smart and cosy with a decent smart tv and pool table. The lounge has a similar large tv and plenty couches and there is a good sized dining room. High quality duvets and pillows are a welcome touch. There are enough bathrooms for everyone and lots of storage for shoes and coats in the hall. This is a stylish, well thought out property and the location could not be better.
