  No WiFi connection had to buy 02 sim card to be able to use mobile.

  We had to take daughter in law to hospital and had no way of ringing the hospital. Caused us real issues as we couldn't keep in touch with family. The metal cannisters in cupboard had mouldy coffee and sticky sugar in them obviously not checked as tea bags left were dated 2020! The fridge was too small for a family couldn't get all baby milk and food in it. We are a family which cook and eat together so important. Had to buy camping fridge and use ice packs to help. A large freezer in utility doesn't compensate for a small fridge, the owners response was they'd had no complaints in 4 years rather than take on board our issues. Woodlice and cockroaches in property which wasn't nice especially with 2 young children. We chose property for family holiday as there were 4 adults and 2 young children. Bedrooms were good size, parking 2 cars side by side outside was tricky because sloping drive with steps so we had to park in front of each other. Its a shame owners didn't want to know you as it helps address issues directly, believe in honest approach. Dolwen farm shop nearby which also has holiday lets, spoke to one of the owners face to face and they were very helpful. Plan to visit area again as lovely. This was an expensive week with it being in school holidays so you expect better. As long as you are aware of these issues you then can adapt to situation, we bought camping fridge, vacuumed daily where cockroaches were and parked cars safely. Can't fault the views and location. Would come back to the area.

  The instructions for access were clear and unloading was easy but via 8 steps.

  However it should be noted that the drive is on quite a steep slope which might be a problem for some individuals. The house was in a quiet neighbourhood (late June) with little or no disturbance despite the nearby railway and main road. There were good views of the nearby hills, the river and the castle from the front bedroom and the decked area adjacent to the front door. The double bed was soft but tolerable with our own toppers. We did not use the single bed so cannot comment. There is no gas in the property and the heating, hot water and the shower were electric. We did not use the heating so cannot comment. The hot water is from a hot water tank with an immersion heater and was very good. The shower was also perfectly adequate with a reasonable flow. The towels were a bit small compared to other properties we have used and we did not find an information folder with instructions for appliances etc. There was some information on local attractions. The TV was good with both Netflix and Amazon Prime included. We thought Deganwy was an excellent location for visiting the area. There was a fish and chip shop 1-2 minutes on the main road to Llanduno Junction. At Llanduno jumction there were supermarkets and access to the NorthWales Expressway. There is an M&S at Llanduno but parking costs £2.50 per hour. Lots to do in the area and we would return to the area and the property in the future it we have time.

  A nice little house in a good location.

  Our welcome pack was thoughtful and appreciated, thank you. On first entering the house appeared clean. Unfortunately some aspects were not up to the standard we expected. The white curtains in lounge are very dirty. We moved the armchair to fit a dog bed in, the floor behind and under the furniture had not been swept, revealing bits of old food and small dog toys, (these were left in the house). The shower head has black mould on it. The bathroom fan is filthy. The back patio was dirty with dog poo and litter. I had to clean this up before I could allow my dogs outside. Not a very nice welcome. Stripping the bed down on leaving revealed a stained mattress protector and rubbish under the bed. I have photos of the curtains, shower head, fan, stained bedding and under bed. The sofa has been well used and you sink right into the left seat. Sofa also needs a good clean. The rear outside light does not work. The focal center of the lounge is a very large clock. Unfortunately this was not working either. The literature in the house says a spare set of keys are in the cutlery drawer. They were not there so we had to separate the keys on the keyring in order to be able to open both doors. It is such a shame that these little matters could not have been better managed as this could be a fabulous place to stay.

  The parking is there BUT it is difficult because the space is on a severe gradient which makes getting in an out of the car a struggle and there were always cars parked opposite which hampered the access and exit.

  One reason for us choosing Castle View was the enclosed garden and grass area as we have a small dog. However you need to be very fit and agile to access this area. The steps are steep and without an adequate handrail.The upper steps are hazardous with loose gravel. If we hadn’t had the company of a young person with us we could not have cleaned up after our dog. Internally the property did better. The kitchen needs slightly more than pots and pans ….such as a few casserole dishes.and a dishwasher would have been preferable to the large freezer which we never used. Upstairs is comfortable but the single bedroom has no hanging rail and only 1 hook…..definitely not to our daughters liking.The same goes for the bathroom. Fantastic shower but a grab rail to aid getting in and out of the bath would be a great idea. It’s the first bathroom I’ve been into that has not even one hook on which to hang one’s clothes……and the lock fell out and had to be pushed back into place on numerous occasions. On the positive side the beds and linens are excellent.As is the lounge and dining ares. I would suggest that this property is not ideal for anyone with mobility or balance problems.

  Beautiful house in a stunning location with views all around.

  All rooms are decoarted in a lovely comfortable homely way. Really well equipped kitchen and lovely large dining room. Lovely large utility room with all equipment you need. Garden is a lovely large space and well closed off for dogs. The location is great - Only a short drive to beaches, shops and restaurants, but nowhere within walking distance. No pavements around the house either, if you walk anywhere it’s on the roads but they aren’t busy. Also very well positioned to visit snowdon, Angelsey, Betws-y-coed, Conwy and much much more.. We had a great stay at this house. My only minor negative points are that the freezer wasn’t clean and the sofas in the main living room are quite uncomfortable especially after a long day out. There are beds for 7 but only seats in the living room for 5? (We only had 5 in our family so it didn’t matter to us) There are 2 additional sofas in the dining room though! Over all, I would recommend this house. This was our second stay here. The location is fab and the setting is beautiful as is the house. Just be aware that you will have to drive everywhere.
