  Lovely apartment, clean, comfortable and good location.

  I would have given it 5 stars but the situation re parking needs urgent addressing so I'm onky giving 3 in the hope it will help get that sorted. When we booked the adjacent pay and display car park (owned by the Harbour Authority, who also own this apartment and the others in the complex) was advertised as costing around £5 or £6 for 24 hours. We have previously used the car park when visiting Caernarvon and budgeted accordingly. However on arrival we found the car park now costs more than triple that expected cost - almost 4 times that actually. Anyone booking until this issue is sorted should bear in mind that to park in the car park daily could add almost £150 to the price of the weeks rental. There are other parking options a reasonably short walk away but we found that quite inconvenient. Really there needs to be a parking permit included in the rental cost - owners should either up the price of rental and include a parking permit or declare this hidden cost. Overall the apartment is lovely but it is very overpriced when you factor in the extortionate parking costs. The Restaurant in the complex, La Marina was really good. We thoroughly enjoyed eating there and definitely recommend. It was very quiet most nights, probably the car park pricing is having an effect there too. The caretaker at the complex was very helpful. Told us all we needed to know, a very nice man. As other reviews have stated there is no information about how to use the appliances in the apartment. We worked it out OK, buy clearly previous residents hadn't as the dishwasher was clogged up having had the detergent tablet forced into the rinse aid compartment so maybe placing some information about how to operate things will help them last longer! Would we return? Yes - if parking issue is addressed, otherwise there are better options that are more luxurious and cost less.

  On arrival, out of respect, I took my shoes off but unfortunately the carpet in the bedroom was soaking wet.

  When discussed with staff, they said it had been deep cleaned prior to us arriving. The cabin was clean and well presented but unfortunately with the carpet being so wet, there was a strong damp smell throughout. The shower was cold. This was mentioned to the reception staff, no one came to sort it. Due to having PTSD, I have a service dog. I explained this to staff but unfortunately this wasn’t passed down and I was repeatedly questioned by multiple staff (some lovely, some not so kind) about this even though she had her labelled harness on. Unfortunately, 1 member of the bar staff was extremely rude- when I went to the bar to get a drink she was standing with her work colleague, looked me up and down and said to her work colleague ‘You can sort that one’. There was a dog roaming around outside the cabins, pooing everywhere which the owner didn’t clean up even though there are lots of dog bins. I had to point this out to staff. I refuse to pick up other people’s dogs poo. On leaving, there were two males sat in their car on the carpark right outside reception smoking very strong cannabis. Marian staff were seen walking past the car but nothing was mentioned. The car parking spaces were small and the disabled parking spaces were small too, there was only 4 and were being used by people in large trucks with no blue badges displayed. As a disabled badge owner, this is extremely frustrating!! I would like to say on a positive note- Jason the handyman was an absolute godsend and I wished I got to thank him before we left.

  Overall a TERRIFIC apartment and a great stay !

  !! the view and location are brilliant and the apartment is extremely well kitted out and was spotlessly clean and tidy some "constructive comments" if I may...... the bedroom windows need black out blinds on all plus the stable door to the balcony......essentially we woke up at dawn each day and struggled to get back to sleep as the room was so light blackout blinds have been put on two of the bedroom windows ...which was absolutley needed as there is a street lamp literally outside the window....but the front window and stable door could do with blackout blinds being fitted also, we were unable to open any of the bedroom or kitchen windows....i appreciate the fact that safety is a consideration but the apartment is essentially aimed at adults WITH A BALCONY so how dangerous can it be to supply the window key to the bedroom window and the kitchen window we were also disappointed that the Jacuzzi wasn't working as that was one of the reasons we booked the apartment....but only a small point As I said overall it is excellent and we had a great stay

  We absolutely loved our stay at the Loft and would happily book again.

  The main room is really spacious, with everything that you need to be comfortable on holiday. The bedroom is very small but perfectly fine for 2 small children (or one older child or adult) and really cosy. Our boys are 5 and 2 - the younger one slept in a travel cot which just about fitted in the bedroom alongside the bed. Di, who runs the farm, was extremely welcoming and friendly. We all enjoyed "helping" to feed the animals (pigs, sheep, ponies, chickens, goats) many mornings and evenings. Remember to take wellies! Di has 5 lovely dogs. Our boys began the holiday quite wary of the dogs as some of them are very large and bark a fair amount! However, by the end of the holiday both boys really loved the dogs and had gained so much confidence around them. There are some great places to visit from the Loft, but you need to be prepared to drive for at least 30 minutes to most of them. Our favourite place was the Elan Valley, about a 45 minute drive away. Thank you Di for a wonderful, unique holiday!

  This cottage felt more like a cabin, it was an amazing experience!

  It felt as if we were in the Charlottes Web on the farm, the animals on the farm were definitely a bonus we loved the all the animals, the pigs, goats, horses, ducks, hens, cockerel, sheep, dogs! The stream next to the farm was lovely our daughter played in it, and we loved the walk up the hill as soon as you leave the farm. It takes you to wonderful views, we even witnessed a farmer on his quad with his sheep dogs hearing the sheep on the rolling hills that was really nice to watch. Everything was was really educating for our child, she wants to go back and we plan to come back this summer with out a doubt. The owner was very accommodating and was always around if you needed her, she has done a great job with the new kitchen and fire installed recently. Always had electric and hot water considering it’s so rural. The water comes from on site it was so tasty. Such an amazing place, magical experience. What a gem!
