What our customers say about their holidays

• Maimoonah - Verified booking

  On arriving one of the main rooms which we required was locked.

  After calling the owner he explained they only arranged the amount of beds we booked for. I explained although certain beds were booked some families preferred to stay in separate rooms. He agreed on opening the room but did not supply any bedding. I explained we are happy to have put the bedding on ourselves but he said it was too ‘costly’. I thought this was ludicrous considering we paid almost £6000 for a holiday- it was not made clear on booking that only the amount of rooms used would be unlocked/bed sheets provided. In large groups sometimes more people decide to come and some drop out. The second issue was that there limited supplies of toilet roll and it was very much a nuisance having to remove our own bedding, emptying bins and cleaning the whole place prior to leaving to the standard in which it was prior to us attending. Most of our trip we were concerned about having our deposit taken and therefore it sucked the fun out of our trip. Especially being the organizer it was extremely stressful. The BBQ was very old and the wood was kept outside in the rain so making a fire or BBQ - we had to get most of our supplies. We have attended many other places in large groups but never had to clean as much as we did. On a positive note, the place itself is very large and the games room was lovely, the kitchen had everything needed plus more. The owner did allow us to attend earlier and leave slightly late.

  What a fabulous house!

  We siblings have been spending an annual week together for more than ten years. Our main requisites are at least four en suites, comfortable seating, plenty of parking space and a pool table. Brynmorwydd did us proud with the added bonus of a sea view! As others have said it’s a truly special house, we especially enjoyed relaxing in the conservatory after an invigorating walk along the beach. Some extra info: The kitchen is very well equipped with good sized pans, trays, serving dishes, nice crockery, glasses and cutlery. (you may need to bring your favourite sharp knife and maybe a hand mixer if necessary - there is a small blender however). There’s a large American style double fronted fridge/freezer plus a wine cooler and an additional counter height freezer. There’s two kettles, two toasters and a slow cooker! There’s a badminton set and boules, ideal for the large level lawn. We enjoyed a good evening meal at the Seabreeze restaurant in Aberdovey which we are happy to recommend. Also the Trefeddian hotel down the road ( quite a bit more than 50 yards) welcomes non residents for meals and the use of their facilities (apart from the swimming pool) so long as you enjoy a drink there (at least!) All in all we had a super time and wholeheartedly recommend this property.

  Brynmorwydd is exactly as described but it is difficult to fully emphasise the spectacular location.

  Perched on a great vantage point on a hill it overlooks a golf course and the ocean.It takes just 5 minutes to reach the golf course by foot. There are a number of paths across the gold course which takes you onto a sandy beach. When the tide is out the beach is somewhere between 70-100 mtrs wide and you can easily walk 3 kms along the beach towards the town of Tywyn. It you are a group of golfers then it is perfect, if you are a family with a dog it is equally perfect and offers great walks both around the beach area or hill walks behind the house. Coming out of the lock down there were challenges preventing dining out but the local restaurants did some amazing speciality meals for collection and with some astute study of the local shop hours we were never without any essentials.It is less than two hours drive to Llanberis or Pen y Pass so easily allows a climb of Snowdon on the same trip. There are some waves which encourage the surfers but take a wet suit, even on the warmer days there can be a cool breeze as elsewhere ion the UK. Dave the owner is very helpful and down to earth. Fully recommend this cottage and location...!

  This is a fantastic property for large groups with a variety of comfortable rooms and many ensuite rooms.

  Perfect for families as well as corporate functions. Its located in the heart of a beautiful village, close to Barmouth beach, some local amenities and takeaways and cafes, but not close to any large supermarkets, however you can order food shopping. Parking is located just a few minutes walk away with a few spaces outside to unload. The property was clean and the photos do not do it justice. Kitchen is extremely well equipped, there is a drinks chiller in the sitting room as well as a poker table, football table, pool table and shuffleboard. The dining room comfortably seats all guests and there were highchairs and cots available. Bed Linen and hand, bath and teatowels are provided. Fantastic property, easy to contact the owner and the housekeeper who is available and local if you need them. I would definitely recommend.

  Brynmorwydd is a truly beautiful and comfortable house and we had a wonderful holiday.

  The owners, Dave and Gill, met us on arrival and also provided a generous welcome pack of drinks and treats, which we all appreciated. The bedrooms were great for a large, 3 generational group with comfy beds and good quality bedding and towels. An en suite for every bedroom was an added bonus. The garden is a delight, with fantastic views over the golf course and lots of sunny spots in which to sit. A great lawn for games too. The beautiful clean beach is just a short walk away and it was a big hit, especially with the children and dogs. It is about a 45 minute stroll along the beach to Aberdovey. As well as enjoying the house we found loads to do in the area including a trip on the Talyllyn Steam Railway and a climb to the top of Cadair Idris. A really special holiday, thank you.
