What our customers say about their holidays

  Firstly, we have to say the location of the property was superb for our needs.

  Unfortunately, the cottage had a "not very clean feel" as soon as we walked in. We weren't sure what it was, as the cottage on first impression was very well presented, taking into consideration the age. Our initial feel about the property was unfortunately confirmed during our stay. The first thing that came to light was when we removed a shelf from the fridge to fit in the provisions we took with us, and we noticed an open carton of almond milk, and more disturbingly mould growing on the back of one of the shelves. Then whilst siting in the lounge we noticed quite a few "bits" on the floor (but unfortunately we couldn't address this as we were unable to get any of the vacuum cleaners to work); and when we removed the bin liner from the kitchen bin on leaving, the bin had obviously not been washed for a while. The bed was very comfortable but when we stripped the bed on leaving, I noticed the mattress protector and duvet were both stained. We didn’t like the large rug in the bathroom and felt that the tiles were more hygienic, but we appreciate that these may become slippery when wet. It would have been useful to have cleaning products and cloths etc in the bathroom to clean the bath after use. On the subject of cleaning products, the bare minimum left for our use i.e. one washing machine tablet, a tiny bit of washing up liquid in the bottom of the bottle, the same for the handwash and one loo roll just smacked of miserly. For us the attention to detail by the cleaners, and the measly provisions let this property down.

  This cottage has the potential to be exceptional.

  It's very dark and cosy, which for December was great. It's tucked away without a drive, but we found the on road parking to be absolutely fine. We really enjoyed reading about the property's history, which was included as part of the welcome information. We appreciated the firewood for the first fire, and the sparkling wine in the fridge was a nice touch. There is a well stocked Spar down the road, and it is very close to some stunning beach walks. Communication with the owner was great when we couldn't find the immersion switch for the hot water - friendly and very helpful. If you are considering this cottage, though, know that you will need to bring *everything* with you. There was one toilet roll, one tea towel, one bin liner for the small kitchen bin, no hand soap, no hair dryer (not great to discover that right before a brisk beach walk in December!), no heater in either of the bedrooms. The single tea towel quickly became smelly because there is no central heating so therefore no radiator to dry it on. Many holiday lets we have stayed in have everything you need to make it a home from home - this isn't one of those properties, so just bear that in mind. Finally, for dog owners: the garden is not connected to the cottage. It is totally separate, so letting your dog out for a wee before bed or in the middle of the night isn't an option - you'll need to put their lead on and take them out. Overall a very cosy cottage full of character and history, it just needs a bit more attention to detail.

  Absolutely amazing property that was well maintained and very clean.

  Beds were super comfortable. This was a 'last minute' booking as the property we were supposed to stay in was withdrawn by the owner so wasn't as much choice for our budget at the time. Property was a lot bigger and more spacious than the pictures show so that was a nice suprise as was the fact the garden was secure as in the pictures I got the impression it was an open or communal garden! Was a joy to cook Xmas dinner in the huge kitchen! The only thing I missed was a slow cooker and serving tongs, we had planned on bringing our own as we usually do but didn't have any space in the car! The property is in a lovely location 'out in the sticks' with fantastic sea views and is lovely and peaceful yet only a 5 min drive to Nefyn town which has a wonderful well stocked spar shop. Nearest bigger town with an Asda is only a 15 min drive and Caernarfon is only a 30 mins drive. Snowdonia is also a 30 - 45 min drive and there are also so many beaches within a half hour! We loved walking around Abersoch and we visited different beaches each day! The only negative would have been the shower as we struggled to get it hot and when we did get some hot water it only lasted 5 mins which was difficult for 5 of us but we managed. Thank you once again for letting us stay and we hope we left the property clean enough.

  The cottage was in a fantastic location and the local scenery was beautiful.

  Loved the duck pond. However on arrival we we’re slightly disappointed that there was no welcome pack and the cottage wasn’t as clean as it should have been. Long dead spider in the kitchen and the bin was dirty. Also we did experience a leak on our first morning from the upstairs bathroom to the dining room. A plumber was called out by the owner and arrived mid afternoon. He told us the sealant around the bath/shower and the basin needed replacing so hopefully when that is done no one else will experience the problem again. The bathroom did smell very musty. We also thought it would benefit from having a roller blind attached to the window for extra privacy. We also struggled to work the microwave, oven and hob because there was no instructions in the property for them. Again it would be really helpful to have a folder with a set of instructions on how to use certain equipment and also where and when to recycle and dispose of rubbish etc Overall the cottage was very comfortable and is in an ideal location , just needs abit more help and guidance for its guests and some TLC

  Lovely clean cottage.

  Very well equipped. Couldn't comment on the view, as it was foggy all week. Lovely welcome pack for us and our dog. Thank you. A couple of minor and 1 major problem for us. Minor - post code takes you to a totally different house down the hill. As we arrived in the dark, it took us over 30 mins to find right house. TV signal intermittent - look at something like Sky TV, that would be good. Major - Found the position of the double bed awkward and tight. If you slept on the window side, you'd smack your legs on the frame or fall onto the bed. As not very nimble, this was a daily occurrence. Maybe swapping rooms, aka children's room in the smaller bedroom, aka 1 single bed and bunk beds, would solve the problem. However, thanks again for letting us stay at your lovely cottage. Please don't let my concerns put anyone off from booking. Also, have to say that the kitchen was fab.
