  We had a wonderful stay at Y Bwthyn.

  The property has been cleverly renovated and has almost all it needs for a very comfortable stay. The garden is perfect and made our stay! We enjoyed lovely evenings sat outside with our dogs, and everything has been thought of in terms of outdoor comfort. In the cottage, there are a few things that would be helpful (e.g a hand towel upstairs and downstairs, a place to hang coats) but more importantly, I feel the owners and Sykes need to provide more information to potential visitors on the spiral staircase in the property. Living in a home with a spiral staircase, we thought it would be fine but it is a very narrow, steep spiral staircase which takes time and care to navigate. Not necessarily an issue, but it needs to be made clear so that future visitors can decide for themselves if it will pose them an issue. The area is gorgeous and as locals ourselves, we’d recommend the Mawddach trail, the Torrent Walk Hotel in Dolgellau and the George for drinks and food!

  This is one of the nicest holiday homes we've stayed in!

  For three adults and a dog, this home was spacious for all of us. The views were stunning. The kitchen/dining area was used a lot, especially for a Sunday Roast we cooked up. The fireplace was a great addition but the home's heating system was enough for us in the first place. The bedrooms were spacious with radiators, and also come with a separate electric heater that does wonders. The bathroom/shower facilities were even better than our own home! In terms of what to do around the area, there were National Parks, Forests, and Bala, and it's also fairly close to Barmouth and an hour's drive to Llandudno. We were lucky with the weather, which is why we got to do so many things. However, in the summer, there would be a lot more out there available for you to do. Overall, we would highly recommend this place if you're looking for a short stay in the North of Wales.

  This was our 2nd visit to Cyffdy cottages, this time staying in Aran as we thought the larger 2nd bedroom would suit our growing children.

  Cottage was lovely and the views were just stunning even with a glimpse of the lake from some windows. Plenty of enclosed outdoor space for our dog to safely wander outside the cottage and a lovely balcony area with outdoor seating to enjoy those magnificent views. Lovely to have the donkeys in the field next to us and they even began to recognise us when we came back after a day out! The grounds of Cyffdy are immaculate and provide a lovely space for the children to have a play. The trampoline and football goal are fab and nice for the children to have a little safe space. There are so many things to do in the surrounding areas to keep you very busy but it was always lovely to come back to our peaceful cottage at the end of the day where we had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing break. Thank you again, we really didn’t want to go home!

  We really enjoyed our holiday at this cottage.

  It’s small but cozy, even with our two whippets! The cottage has everything you need with a well-equipped kitchen and a modern bathroom. The best part was probably the enclosed outside area with a roofed seating space. We had a lovely barbecue and sat by the fire when it got colder. The location is amazing and it was easy to get to all the main hikes. It’s also just a 5 min walk to a fantastic pub - George III - by the quaint toll bridge over the estuary. The host was very helpful and quick to respond too. Although it wasn’t a problem for me, the only thing was that the spiral staircase was very steep and rather narrow, which my partner found a bit harder to navigate. Overall, though, we and our hounds loved our holiday at Y Bwthyn. Thank you for having us!

  This was a beautiful and comfortable cottage with fantastic views.

  The cottage was very clean, and had everything you needed. The bedrooms had lovely views and the double bed was very comfortable. The owners are situated very close which was reassuring in case of problems. The cottage is only a five minute drive from Bala lake, so great for water sports enthusiasts. Bala itself is a lovely place with some unusual shops, the Indian restaurant and the Turkish restaurant are top notch. This is a fantastic cottage, in a fantastic location. Just one point the cottage is accessed by a flight 8 steps up to the front door, so not accessible for people with mobility difficulties. There are however other cottages that are accessible. We will definitely be returning to this cottage, highly recommend.
