• "We had a lovely week , the house had everything we needed , spotlessly clean , warm and spacious with a beautiful garden and sea view."

  Ideally situated if you want to explore the area without driving for hours and if you enjoy walking it's only two minutes walk to the beach and the coastal path and lots of woodland walks from the door . We have stayed in many holiday lets in Borth-y-gest over the years but so glad to have found this one , will definitely be booking again !

• "We have stayed at this property before."

  It was a simple decision to return. It is clean and well equipped. We will probably use it again as we have family in Borth-y-Gest. Borth-y-Gest is a gem. Tranquil and picturesque, with lots of scenic splendour. Will certainly be back.

  We were delighted to welcome you back to Cwm Orthin and we’re so pleased you’ve had another fantastic stay. We agree that Borth-y-Gest is a real gem and a very special place! We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Property Owner

• "Well equipped spacious house with most things you could want."

  We felt a radio in the kitchen would have enhanced our stay. The house has a beautiful garden too. The cleanliness of the house was not as good as some we have stayed in. There were cobwebs in the bedroom that we used. Also the two chairs with white loose covers would benefit with laundering / cleaning. Beautiful views of the cost from a number of windows around the house. Always a bonus. We did enjoyed our stay at Cwm Orthin. We felt it is a beautiful house & the area of Borth Y Gest & Porthmadog had much to offer. I feel mean mentioning the cleanliness of the house but if the owners are not aware then they can not act. We have stayed in a number of properties associated with Sykes Cottages & cleanliness has always been spot on. I would also like to state that the owner was extremely helpful to us when we could not get any sound on the TV. We wish to thank him for that.

  Thank you for your feedback and we’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay. We very much appreciate you mentioning the cobwebs, we pride ourselves on our high standards of cleanliness so we will make sure our cleaners keep on top of cobwebs. Thank you for also drawing our attention to the chair covers, we are arranging a spare set of covers so we can take the current ones away for a deep clean. We very much look forward to welcoming you back to Cwm Orthin again soon. Property Owner

• "What a great week we had staying at Cwm Orthin."

  It was spotlessly clean and warm when we arrived. From the huge bed in the main bedroom, to the abundance of kitchen equipment, to the comfortable sitting room with a view, to the lovely garden. Every box is ticked for us and our dog. We'll be back to Borth-Y-Gest, hopefully to this lovely house.

• "Very nice property in a good position."

  Well equipped. Lovely garden. Would consider a return visit. If we had to put any negatives it would be that we had a few problems navigating the TV (normal channels) we had to watch through ITV Hub. Stairs were a little bit slippery for our elderly parents to navigate. Overall, a good holiday in a nice property.

• "On arrival very pleased however bathroom had previous guest wet towels in pile on bathroom floor bathroom bin full,would have been nice to have main bedroom but that had previous guests sheets on floor."

  We had a nice weekend and would stay again

  We are so sorry to hear this - we will investigate what happened but this is the first we have heard of this issue. Obviously it’s completely unacceptable that the cottage hadn’t been prepared for you and we are really disappointed that it hasn’t met your expectations. However, we really wish you had either called or emailed us to let us know there was an issue and we would have arranged for the cleaner to come and resolve this immediately. Property Owner

  Lovely house, spacious, modern and clean. Well equipped kitchen, lovely comfy beds, plenty of seating in the living room. We could not fault this property. Excellent location- 5 minute walk to the harbour, 10 min walk to a beautiful cove, 10 min drive to Black Rock sands. Would definitely recommend this house to stay and we are planning to return soon.

• "I think it would be useful to have another light in the kitchen area as I struggled to see the dials on the oven & also inside the fridge as the area was quite dark."

  Also the pillows were too soft for our personal liking we had to use the spare ones also , from the bunk beds . This is our personal Taste and by no means detracted from the high standard of the accommodation. Beautiful property , in a lovely area of the Welsh coast .

• "We both really enjoyed our stay at Cwm Orthin."

  Borth-Y-Gest is such a lovely peaceful location and the house was very clean and well-equipped. We particularly loved the view of the estuary from lounge window. The garden was nice and secure for our dog and we both enjoyed watching the heron visit the pond. The wine and chocolates were much appreciated too! The only improvement we would make would be to fit some blinds in the bathroom. Thank you for a great holiday.

• "The Property is in a quiet neighbourhood and well maintained."

  Everything worked as expected. The Garden to the rear of the property is not large, but very pleasant to relax in after a day out and about. Only minutes from the waterfront and a reasonable walk into Porthmadog. There are no shortage of places to visit within easy driving distance. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here and hope to return again.
