"Y Big is a small, comfortable cottage with a wonderful view of the countryside from the conservatory."
It is very private and secluded being reached down very narrow single track lanes with high hedges - not for the nervous. Luckily it is rare to meet a vehicle travelling the other way!
Thanks for your feedback. Glad you enjoyed your stay at Y Big.

"Took our 10 yr old twins they loved this quirky house with all its history, even though it never stopped raining."
Visited beautiful beaches. A great place for walking and getting away from the busy world. The owners are lovely and will vacillate all your needs.
Thanks very much for the review.
Hope to see you all again.

"Lovely cottage in a fantastic rural setting."
Great base for seeing the Llyn and 20min walk to the beach mainly along country lanes.

"We loved staying at Y Big."
It’s a beautiful spot and the cottage was perfect for us.
Thanks for reaching out before we arrived with all the useful information. In particular for proactively sharing photos of the cot and highchair so we could see these in advance (I wouldn’t have thought to ask!). Having the option for early check in meant we could make the most of our short stay, and we really appreciated the offer.
So nice to have the welcome pack too & all the necessities. We enjoyed the local eggs very much! Thank you for making our stay so easy and enjoyable.
Our pleasure, hope to see you again.

"What a lovely little gem of a property!"
Away from it all, but near enough to the beach (1 mile) and the local shops/cafes. Really quiet other than the natural countryside noises and a total sun trap when the weather is nice, which it was all week. Some have commented on the lane going to the property which is indeed narrow, but its perfectly negotiable and I never actually encountered another vehicle when driving. For info I drive a 4x4 so unless you're trying to drive down a lorry I think you'll be ok. Perfect for walkers, with me and the dog clocking up over 90 miles in the week. The local pubs can get VERY busy on the weekend in summer as can the beach, but there are much quieter ones further afield in the car. The house is west facing, so can get VERY hot in the sun so best keep the curtains closed. It would benefit from blackout curtains in the bedroom such as those in the lounge but I guess this is down to personal preference. Please note there is also no washing machine here, so get your elbow grease ready for the handwash! Alternatively there is an laundry in the village. Hosts are tremendous and couldn't do enough. Local amenities are grand, including an emergency visit to the vets who couldn't help enough. All that remains to say is diolch!
Thanks very much for the review. Very pleased you had such a lovely stay. Liz & Dick

"Thank you for a lovely welcome to your beautiful cottage."
Such a beautiful location with absolutely breathtaking views.
The peace and quiet was just incredible.
Lots of beautiful walks, a couple of hours spent sat on the beach at the Ty Coch Inn with some lovely food.
Next time we need a longer stay, as so much to do and see.

Thanks for the review. Spring is a lovely time of year on the Llyn . Hopefully you can stay for longer next time, maybe see you in the Ty Coch.

"We had a fabulous 10 day stay."
The cottage is situated in a lovely location and is an ideal base for walking and cycling. The owners Liz & Dick are lovely and made us feel very welcome. They invited us to see their farm animals & my husband helped to deliver a lamb which was a wonderful experience and one we will treasure. The cottage had everything we needed and our 2 children enjoyed playing in the garden and watching the wildlife. Having read the previous reviews regarding the narrow lane, we didn’t have a problem in our Land Rover Defender which easily fit and we didn’t encounter any oncoming cars. We will certainly be booking again in the future and have already recommended to our friends & family.
It was lovely meeting you all x

"The cottage is idyllic and very well appointed inside."
The owners had decorated for Xmas which made it a real home from home and it was a very pleasant place to be over the Xmas break. I would recommend Y Big wholeheartedly to friends and family but as it is on three different levels, it's not for people with mobility issues.
Thanks for your comments. We're glad you had a nice Christmas at Y Big.

"Everything about the cottage was first class."
The downside is the journey to the cottage down a very narrow lane with numerous bends. I had to use the car horn on numerous occasions due to the fear of another vehicle arriving at a blind spot. There were two occasions when I had to reverse to let vehicles pass. If I recommended this cottage to anyone, I would have to mention the Lane.
Many thanks for your feedback - as you suggested, we will add a note in our Welcome email regarding Cefn Morfa being narrow. Unfortunately, many lanes in the area are the same, fortunately Cefn Morfa isn't busy.

"The cottage is in good proximity to explore several beautiful beaches on the Llyn peninsula."
The lane to the property is very narrow which may be problematic if you have a large vehicle, it would be good to have this information in the description of the property so people are aware.
Overall we had a nice holiday, apart from being woken in the middle of the night on several occasions by a large dog barking right outside the bedroom window. We also assume this dog was responsible for the dog mess we kept finding in the garden and on the drive by the car, which wasn’t ideal with two young children.
Thanks for your feedback.
The dog belongs to a neighbour & we have mentioned your comments to her.

"The property location is fantastic and the view beautiful."
It was lovely to sit out and watch the wildlife. The cottage was very comfortable with comfy beds. Very clean and welcoming. Footstools would be nice, as after a long day sightseeing and walking, putting your feet up would be lovely! Otherwise, almost perfect. My wife loves a bath and would have liked to have a soak, but it’s not a deal breaker. Just to mention also that the tin opener isn’t very good.
We have replaced the tin opener.....nothing more annoying than a dodgy tin opener! We will also look into getting a couple of foot stools.
Suggestions are always welcome, thanks very much.

In the most perfect spot with an amazing view, our stay was blissfully peaceful. Secluded, private and welcoming. We stayed for just the weekend but managed to fit in a lot of exploring including the many beaches and driving through the stunning Llanberis Pass.
Communication from the owners was excellent and the cake in particular was much appreciated and very yummy!
Plenty of local shops and lots of options for food in the neighbouring villages.
A very enjoyable weekend.

"On approaching Y Big you must follow the instructions provided by Liz and Dick , the owners in order to negotiate the narrow winding lane which becomes a track over the final half mile ."
On arrival you are welcomed by an amazing rural view and a splendidly restored and carefully modernised Welsh longhouse with period features as well as eco friendly ground sourced pumped heating and a wet room with shower , w.c. , bidet , and wash hand basin. The shower is unscreened, and must be mopped out after use.The kitchen diner is spacious and well equipped , with good natural light and countryside views via the excellent garden room/ conservatory . The lounge boasts comfortable leather sofas and a superb log burner , and the bedrooms are comfortably furnished with adequate storage , whilst the double has a useful en suite toilet and washbasin . We thoroughly enjoyed our week of relaxation in this lovely cottage set in beautiful peaceful countryside, and hope to return.
Thanks very much for your comments - we have had a shower screen fitted, so now all is well in the wet room.

The hosts are wonderful and the little touches such as fresh eggs, milk and Barabrith were wonderful. Ybig is situated on a quiet country lane surrounded by fields. The lambs were captivating to watch from the comfort of the conservatory. Not too far to the shops and amenities. We had a wonderful stay.
