  The cottage was ideal - spotless, well equipped and the perfect garden for our toddler to enjoy running around in. The owners were so friendly and helpful.

  We had a wonderful stay at Y Stabal. The hosts were great and so helpful. The views are amazing. The beds are comfy and the cottage is one of the cleanest we have stayed in. The kitchen is handy for those nights in for cooking, but there’s many great places to eat nearby. It’s so close to Criccieth, but also in such a quiet location. We especially enjoyed the walk near Lloyd George’s grave. Would 100% recommend and one day hopefully will be back.

  The property is located just outside Cricceth and pwehelli so not too far from lots of attractions. The owners are really welcoming and had provided a few basics such as bread, butter, milk and wine for our arrival. The only downside to this property is the wifi. There is wifi but we found that it kept coming and going - annoying when trying to watch a film via an amazon fire stick!. I would say this is more to do with the area and signal than anything to do with the property though. We are already thinking of booking again for next year.

  It was very clean . The location was very good . The Directions where easy to follow . The owners where polite and very helpful. The only down points where , the fridge/freezer are on the small side . Which was ok for 2 but if there where 4 people it might be an issue. The other one was a small side table by the one settee would be an idea as there is only the one table in the lounge. This is really only a very minor point . We solved it by moving the settee closer. These points are both only opinion , overall the cottage was wonderful . The owners have made a very good holiday accommodation .
