  • "Amazing place to stay, all amenities you need."

    Comfortable, fantastic views when it’s a clear day/night. Star gazing was a nice surprise on a very clear night, no light pollution or noise is great for relaxation. We had 2 dogs with us and respected the instructions to keep them on a lead due to surrounding sheep and cattle further along. The dogs loved the area too. The track to drive up to the property was not clear when we booked but the instruction to get there on the day were very clear to understand and after the initial concern driving up the winding road and track over several cattle grids surrounded by sheep we got used to it and found it very pleasant and easily navigated. We felt we were in our own piece of paradise away from the world when we got to the top, but not too far away from what we might need like shops, restaurants, takeaways etc. Not too far to get to a beautiful beach or castle, places to explore like Beddgelert, Betws y coed, Slate Mines, Zip World, Criccieth, Harlech, Llyn Peninsular, and much more We will definitely book again.

    Thank you very much for your very positive review. It is a beautiful area with lots to do. Please visit again! Property Owner

  • "Lovely stay but we did note a couple of potential issues and some areas which could do with a refresh."

    The grill ring in the oven was hanging on by 2 screws and will need fixing. The washer/dryer probably needs replacing. We had an issue on the very last day washing a sheet where the door refused to open. We followed the manual and eventually called Sykes who sent a chap round to get it open. In the end he had to force the lock. This appears to be a known issue with this particular model judging by the same query appearing many times online and even the manual stating to call a technician if this happens. I have to say though Sykes were absolutely brilliant sorting this out though. Really well organised and got someone out later in the same afternoon. Can't fault them for that. The bathroom probably needs a bit of a tidy up - new sealant and a tap was loose on the sink. Nothing bad though as its certainly better kitted out than some hotels we've stayed in! The leather chair in the living room has also seen better days. The location is brilliant though. Sadly this was probably our two dog's last holidays as they are very old now (14). Hopefully we will return with two younger and fitter dogs so we can give the area a proper exploration!

    Many thanks for your comments. We were pleased that you had a good stay. The issues of the washing machine and oven are new and we will ask Sykes to arrange for them to be fixed. We will also give some thought to a refresh although most of the cottage was redecorated in the spring. Property Owner

  • "A lovely cottage spoiled by the property being a little tired and overdue a revamp with damp patches on the wall on the ground floor bedrooms."

    Whilst generally clean, the cooker wasn’t and needed a clean before use. Access is via a gate that is very difficult to double latch and is needed due to farm animals on the lane. Lastly whilst the property is enclosed for pets there is only a gravelled area for exercise.. not too good for elderly dogs. A little more attention to minor but nonetheless holiday making details would make a huge difference.

    Thank you for your comments. The issues mentioned are being resolved but as a farm we do need sturdy gates. The cottage was repainted earlier this year. We are happy for the dogs to be exercised in the fields provided they are on a leash due to the sheep. Property Owner

  • "More outdoor seating would be nice to make use of the views and weather, especially as the place can sleep 6."

    Was a lovely stay all round and would recommend to others

    Thank you Connor for your helpful comments. There are extra chairs in the storage area upstairs. However it is probably time we renewed the chairs so we will do that. Property Owner

  • "Had a fabulous few days at this very spacious and comfortable cottage with lots of parking space , well fenced and ideal for our two Labs."

    Everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and the most wonderful views over the estuary and mountains , ideal if you like to be surrounded by countryside but not far away from Porthmadog . Looking to book again Julie
