• "Absolutely fantastic !"

  Can't fault cleanliness, and facilities, everything was just perfect. Justy one small criticism - the chairs and sofa, although comfortable are a little low, if you are of a certain age! Otherwise nothing but praise for the accomodation and the owners.

• "Another lovely week staying in the Honeypot for a second time (first was 2018) a superb location, the grounds are immaculately kept and owners very friendly."

  The sound of a babbling stream and birds twittering outside your door and everything you need for a relaxing week away. Lots of places within easy driving distance too. We have stayed in many cottages over the years but this is one we would definitely recommended.

• "We really enjoyed our family holiday at the Honey Pot."

  We was made to feel very welcome by the owners. The accommodation was one of the cleanest we’ve stayed in. We was out exploring North Wales by day and when we returned we was chilling on boats in the lake which is also on site. We would definitely recommend for others to stay here and we shall return in the future I’m sure :D

• "Lovely place to stay; the cottage and the grounds that we were allowed to explore were very pretty."

  Cottage very clean, modern and well equipped. Perfect size for our family of 4 (10 and 14yo) plus a small dog. Owner very friendly and helpful. Close to Criccieth for the beach and we made use of many tourist attractions within half hours drive during the week that we stayed.

• "Stayed in quite a number of holiday cottages over the years and the Honey Pot stands out above all of them!"

  Came with a friend and my little Westie. Perfect for dogs, as private courtyard completely enclosed. Nice little dog walk for morning ablutions! The setting is beautiful, surrounded by mature trees, shrubs and plants. The short walk from the car to the cottage is immaculately landscaped. The cottage interior is spot on and very tastefully decorated and furnished. Comfy seating and beds. The lake and surroundings are breathtaking and guests can fish (brown trout), canoe (2) or row (1). Russ and Karen, the owners are so friendly and helpful. Of course, Snowdonia is also very beautiful!! We had good meals in The Goat (just along the road) and The Golden Fleece, Criccieth, but the best meal was in Poachers, Criccieth. There’s a lovely little tearoom by a small lake/reservoir - Llyn Tan-y-graig, Dolgellau LL40 2TA. Need satnav to get there! All of Snowdonia is within easy reach. The Llyn Peninsula is also worth visiting.

• "The Honey Pot was a truly delightful place to stay, a beautiful setting, comfortable and extremely clean."

  There is a Nespresso Vertuo machine in the cottage. There was no cafetière, but Russ, the owner, came to the rescue and found one for us to use. A Clothes airer/ dryer would be most useful, as would a dustpan and brush in the cottage. But these are very small negative remarks. All in all a lovely stay.

• "The Honey Pot offered us the perfect little family getaway."

  Set against a stunning backdrop with its tranquil lake and Mountain View, it provided both relaxation and activities like boating and swimming. Our kids were particularly fond of bagpuss the cat and resident geese. The hosts couldn’t be any more warmer and welcoming. Truly a memorable stay and we’re eager to return. Definitely recommended.

• "Delightful place with welcoming hosts."

  Lovely and peaceful surroundings with garden and lake as well as the geese, sheep etc. Enjoyed every moment and certainly hope to return. Only slight downside for those whose dogs, like mine, can be reactive is that the walk to the lake passes the cottage which can trigger a response (certainly mine are guilty of barking when anyone passes) that could be a problem for other guests.

• "Just returned from a week's stay in The Honey Pot."

  We have stayed in North Wales for holidays for over 30 years in variety of accommodation types and settings. This very special place has topped the lot. The gardens and surrounding setting are absolutely stunning. Each cottage comes with its own private and enclosed outdoor area which are also very well designed and maintained . Plenty of outdoor seating for all. There is a summerhouse in the shared gardens that offers a beautiful spot near to the stream and offers lovely furniture and a good selection of books and DVDs for guests as well as a picnic basket should you want to take food out. Follow the stream down past the owners geese and less than 100m away there is a stunning lake. Here there are benches, seating and sun loungers placed carefully to capture different views...such as the sun setting over the mountains. On the lake there are Canadian canoes and a large rowing boat. Guests are welcome to use these. We had two wonderful afternoons on the lake and even took our 2 little dogs ( wearing life jackets) into the canoes with us. The cottage is stunning and has beautifully refurbished bathrooms. Kitchen includes everything you need and it's all good quality. Decor is perfect...everything looks fresh and was absolutely spotless on arrival. The TV is a smart TV so if you don't wish to watch DVDs you can download your usual apps and choose what to watch. WiFi is very reliable and speedy. We had a lovely welcome as did our 2 dogs. Owners are very pleasant and attentive but leave you in peace. We loved this place so much that on our 2nd day we booked a week for next year too. Location is perfect..just 10 mins to town and a choice of beaches/ mountain areas just short drives away. One thing that's very different to where we've stayed before: no dusty file stuffed with lists of do's and dont's and a mixture of random, out of date tatty leaflets...thank you to the owners for making such homely cottages filled with quality items. Cannot wait for next time.

  The location is perfect if you want access to the beaches and the mountains. The hosts were friendly but gave us privacy, even offered to take our eight year old to feed the geese and sheep(which he loved). We were extremely comfortable in the cottage. We couldn’t get over what a picturesque setting it was, even on the rainy days.

• "The cottage was beautifully furnished and equipped to a very high standard, matched only by the lovely grounds and gardens that surrounded it."

  On arrival we were welcomed out of the rain into a warm cosy room, and found a bottle of wine, together with a delicious homemade Bara Brith. Towels and bedding were exceptionally good, and we appreciated the nice touch of providing a few toiletries. The pretty enclosed courtyard was convenient and safe for the dog, and parking was easy and close by. The whole house, furnishings and equipment were spotless, with no broken crockery, uneaten food or generally grimy evidence of previous visitors, which is unfortunately rare in our many years of experience. It was a delightful place to stay, and we recommend it without hesitation.

  Gardens have been lovingly cared for by the owners and fixtures and fittings inside the cottage are of high quality. Owners were welcoming and friendly, they left us a bottle of wine, fruit cake and gave us cucumbers and strawberries from their vegetable garden. Could not have asked for nicer hosts.
