There was an impressive array of electrical cooking equipment including microwave, air fryer and coffee maker. Beds and chairs were extremely comfortable. We have no comment about games, books ot TV as we wanted a completely quiet holiday and did not use any of these at all. Cushions, pillows and and throws were of excellent quality, but there were far too many for us, and we put most of them away in the wardrobe. The heating worked well and we didn't need to use the log fire. The location was an ideal base for exploring the whole of the peninsula and, blessed with good weather (apart from one wet day) we were out, for most of every day. However, for us, in late 70's and early 80's, used to bungalow living in an extremely quiet area there were difficulties and we feel very strongly that the advertising details should point out the hazards for the elderly, the infirm and for young children. Firstly, although there were alternatives for parking, these were not easy to negotiate from the very busy road. The drive is steep and if parking in the dedicated place on the opposite side of the busy road it was quite difficult getting up to the house, especially when carrying essentials. Secondly and of most concern, the stairs are very steep and the access to them is difficult, especially as one of the bedtooms opens directly onto the top of the stairs. One of our group, with a balance problem, needed help when coming down and was unable to go upstairs while carrying anythingnas she needed to use both handrails. Thirdly, and we realise that this would not concern many people, we found the constant flow of traffc so disturbing that we had to keep the door closed, even when the weather was hot. if we had listened to music or had the TV on, we may not have noticed, but we came for a quiet holiday in order to read and write. There were tea and coffee bags and a packet of biscuits, but we were disappointed to have to go out and buy toilet rolls (only one partly used was supplied). a kitchen roll (none at all), a dishcloth (none at all), dishwasher tablets (only 4 supplied) and washing-up liquid (only an almost empty bottle supplied.) There were plenty of good quality towels but we could only find one tea towel. Items which would be useful in addition to the above mentioned items, are surface wipes and a large serving spoon. For younger adults we're sure it would be ideal, but we're afraid that, for us, it wasn't perfect.

The cottage was immaculate and very comfortable. The location was perfect, a short drive to amazing bay's and beaches and the whole of the Llyn peninsula. The communication with the owner was great and prompt. We had an amazing week and would definitely return to Tanrallt without hesitation.
