What our customers say about their holidays

  This is a beautiful cottage, with everything of the highest standard, reflecting the way of life of the owners.

  We had long conversations with them and care a lot about the same things. Both the welcome and farewell are treasures. The outlook and views are gorgeous. It would have been better for us to have been able to have a sofa bed in the lounge as a fallback. The directions to the cottage are badly in need of revision! The turning off the A4085, is marked by a 'BUS STOP SIGN and a dirty sign that reads Nantmor'. (There is no sign for the name of the road, and your directions are wrong at this point.) It should then say: 'Climb up steeply, over the Railtrack and uphill through Nantmor village till you see the Chapel on your left. Turn left in front of the Chapel and past the telephone box and keep going uphill till you reach a gate with Cwm Caith Farm on it. Open the gate to drive through and close it. Drive on and you will then see the farmhouse.' The only other point I would make about your services is this. We had decided to come to the area one night sooner and it so happened that Cwm Caith was available that one night extra. After phoning yourselves, I was told it would cost a staggering 140 pounds extra. So of course, I looked around and got fixed up for half that amount in Porthmadog.This huge sum was due I believe to extra insurance and admin., not a higher daily rent rate for the owners. This incident is the mainyy reason I have rated you at only 5.

  This is a very special place and we agree with the constant 5* reviews that confirm this!

  The hosts are very welcoming and friendly and happy to help with any questions (they live opposite). The situation is just breathtaking and you have your own little garden and table and chairs with an unspoilt view of the mountains. It is so quiet and peaceful with just the noise of the birds and sheep (or rain if you are unlucky - although we had perfect weather for 95% of the time). The cottage is quite small but perfect for two people and is tastefully decorated with a functional kitchen. Unlike many properties, so much is provided and the welcome pack is amazing (certainly no need to go shopping for a day). Another nice touch was the provision of "emergency" toiletries. Very highly recommended - you will not be disappointed!. P.S. Our SatNav found it first time with the Postcode!

  Beautiful cottage, which was clean and well equipped, super fluffy towels and comfortable bed, we loved the remoteness of the setting.

  Friendly owners without being intrusive. Thank you for the wee welcome gifts especially the Welsh cakes mmm and allowing us to pick some apples. Pasta bowls would be useful and a dust pan and brush so I could sweep up my cooking crumbs. Seems strange making comment on the quality and sharpness of the knives but when self catering this is very important (I brought my own knives but they did not get used at all this holiday :)) Loved all of the "nic nac" ornaments - me to a T. North Wales is a beautiful part of the country and we relived childhood memories - highlights were climbing Yr Wyddfa up and down in 6 hours and the train journey to Caernarvon. A BIG thank you from this Northumberland Couple.

  Beautiful cottage, everything so well thought out and welcoming. The owners are super friendly and helpful. Its the most idyllic spot you could wish to visit. Walking, cycling - all from your door step and when you've finished your activities the cottage is cosy and so very comfortable. Also lots of activities such as ZipWorld for wet days plus other lovely places to visit. We will definitely be back to stay. We didn't want to leave! If you enjoy the outdoors, being away from civilisation, fresh air and beautiful mountain views, don't hesitate - just book! One of the best holidays we have had. (Family of 4 plus small dog)

  The location and views from the cottage were as stunning as expected.

  Found it with ease even though quite remote. As advised phone signal was non-existant, not that it mattered, although able to connect to cottage wi-fi for internet connection. A lovely homemade cake awaited us. The beds were extremely comfortable, as were the reclining chairs. The only thing which let the stay down was the fact that we could not use the log fire, which we were so looking forward to. The door is broken and yet to be fixed. A great weekend with trips to Barmouth, Harlech, Beddgelert and the fascinating Osprey centre. The eggs are due to hatch in late May, so definitely worth a visit then.
