Enjoyed 6 days in October we were there. Beautiful scenery and just off main road for Caernarfon and Porthmadog. Would recommend as for us the garden was secure for our dog and had everything you needed to settle in. Underground heating excellent and well insulated as heat stays for ages. Only issues were no toilet roll and the ensuite light would appear to have internal loose wiring as would only work with a wiggle on the light switch itself.

Lovely setting but building was dirty and poorly maintained. No wood burner starter pack. Cob webs everywhere Dog hairs all over the living area Bed was ripped Pillows were poor The side gate was broke so garden wasn't secure The French doors in the bedroom were not lockable, they could only be opened from the inside but still a security issue with kids

Cleaning could be improved as mentioned in previous reviews but it didn't put us off. Great safe garden for our Frenchie. Greeted by sheep every morning at the garden wall. Open plan living room kitchen diner with underfloor heating. Lovely log burner (few logs would have been nice on arrival). Master bedroom had a beautiful private wet room. Duvet was Abit on the small and thin side, we did fight each other for it most nights lol. All windows to the cottage frame the beautiful views of surrounding mountains. Beautiful beaches down the road with plenty of shops and takeaways. I feel a welcome bundle, would have made it extra special on arrival. Overall me, my husband and three children had a fantastic stay, perfect to relax and reboot. None of us wanted to leave. Will 100% be back.
