  Over all we had a fabulous time at the property.

  Great communication from owners previous to travelling to the cottage and a lovely welcome pack on arrival, flowers, bubbles, milk and coffee. Even some doggie treats which were welcomed by our dog after the journey. Cottage was cosy, warm and inviting with a great garden for dogs. Fully enclosed and clean. Parking was no issue at all regarding other reviews we had read. We chose the cottage due to the proximity to the beach and local amenities and it was perfect. About 10 minute walk to a fabulous beach and a couple of minutes to the town. We found the beds to be extra comfortable and the surrounding area very quiet so had some wonderful sleeps. The cottage had everything you would need regarding plates, cutlery, tea towels and it has been the most fully stocked kitchen we have stayed at. Plenty of towels for our stay plus hot tub towels which were a bonus. Hot tub was perfectly fine, hot and bubbly. Sofa was very comfy/showers were great and no issue with water pressure or Wifi. Overall the cottage was clean and tidy however, attention to a few minor issues would make it a 5 star. The minor issues did not hamper our enjoyment of the stay. Upon inspection there seemed to be cobwebs on the kitchen ceiling within the windows, the toaster seemed broken on one side and one bin did not stay closed properly ( both of which I have made the owners aware after our stay, they did reply saying they had spares and would have happily replaced) and a knob required fixing in the bedroom. We have stayed in numerous properties over the years and always like to give feedback/ideas as to how to elevate customers stay even more. Suggested a shoe/wellie rack in the kitchen to keep shoes tidy and off the floor. Some hooks on the wall to hang doggie leads, bags etc to keep them off the floor and tidy. There are hooks in the living room but not great to trample through living room in wet/dirty clothes. A few comments were mentioned in the feedback book being a little confused by the recycling. It is listed in the Welcome Pack however it maybe a good idea to laminate the information to put on walls in the kitchen. Overall we had a lovely time and will back. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

  Lovely stay, the property had everything you needed, spotlessly clean and was home away from home!

  Cosy Lounge with a log fire & plenty of blankets to add to the cosy feel, the decor throughout the house adds so much character to it! We loved it. Bedrooms are cosy & beds very comfortable. Excellent garden space however we didn’t use it due to the rain but could image in the warmer months it would be lovely to use. The owners are so accommodating & such lovely people, we was welcomed with a bottle of milk in fridge, bits for a cup of tea, chocolate and a cold bottle of Prosecco much needed after a car journey. Hot tub was a hit with our 8 year old! No matter the weather she went in every night it was so warm & lovely to look up at the stars & relax. The hot tubs in a very private part of the outside great space for one. We are a family of 5, 2 little girls aged 1 & 8 with a furbaby too our frenchie. The property’s location is great, a local park just a 2 min walk for the children and a lovely big sport field to walk the dog around. Shops are a 5 min walk, with a local bakery and an amazing cafe called Caffi Lolfa! So worth a visit but best to book before going. Lighthouse & beach is around a 10/14min walk and the beaches are amazing! Lovely views our stay was in feb so didn’t spend too much time on beach. Overall we will definitely be back, hopefully with better weather this time. A massive thank you to the owners for our stay in their lovely house.

  We stayed at Dalton cottage at end of October.

  Beautiful cottage and very comfortable. Had a problem with the heating not working, got in touch with Sykes on that evening and received a message from them saying someone would ring within 20 minutes, no call came, rang the next day and they said they would get in touch with the owner, thankfully it was sorted quickly then, not like Sykes at all, always been happy with them. When we arrived there was a lovely bottle of wine and Welsh cakes that went down well. There was a black bin bag by the back door in the garden, I checked what it was and unfortunately it was full with dog poo bags (used), surely these should have been disposed of before we arrived. My daughter had to also take our 4 year old granddaughter to the hospital as she accidentally slipped off the settee and cracked her head open on the corner of the coffee table, luckily we had internet to find out where the nearest hospital was. We would ask the owner to put in place a welcome and information pack for guests, with local doctors, hospitals, vets, the day the bins should go out and places to eat etc and would be nice to have a phone number of a contact in case of emergencies i.e heating breaking etc. We don't like to complain and are definitely not complaining about the cottage it was beautiful but just needs info pack for guests and would recommend others to stay here.

  Katy and Leon are wonderful hosts: warm, friendly and so accommodating.

  Nothing is a problem for them. Our cottage was a joy and as we were there for the Christmas week every room was beautifully decorated for Christmas. Well equipped and very comfortable. We were welcomed by Leon brandishing a plate of delicious pastries for us to try! Yummy! They even left a bottle of mulled wine and Christmas Bakewell tarts on the table. But the jewel in this idyllic Welsh Crown was the little "egg house" with a variety of eggs from their own chickens. The best eggs we have had in a long time. This is a brilliant location for families with dogs and/or children. There is a brilliant totally enclosed field for dogs of all sizes, accessed down a private and safe lane. Ty Cwtch has its own totally enclosed large garden which was much enjoyed by our two tiny doggies so you can let them out and leave them to play. There are rescue horses, sheep, gorgeous nosey goats who will come to the fence for a head scratch, and those chickens who gift us those wonderful eggs. The view across the valleys is as stunning as is the peace and quiet. We are planning a return in the summer. Highly recommended.

  The property and its attention to detail far exceeded the detailed plan and photos that advertised the property.

  It was very comfortable and easily accommodated our party size of 4 adults and one child. Matt & Dawn made us feel welcome from before our arrival and once we got there were accessible without being over powering. Even allowing our daughter to feed their chickens and stick insects. Every attention to detail was addressed with hairdryer, torches in each bedside cabinet, extra toilet rolls and towels. The kitchen was also stocked with the very important tea and coffee for the lovely coffee machine, along with a supply of dishwasher tablets and cleaning products A very welcome surprise of chilled prosecco, welsh cakes and card with details of mobile numbers for them both. The cottage provides everything a family should need on a staycation, new kitchen with fully integrated dishwasher and washer/dryer. Multiple activities whilst at home including BBQ, lawned area, hot tub and games room. It's within easy walking distance of the town, and beach.
